In 2010, Arab, Omar Shakir still struggled with "apartheid" slur, pushed it as 'strategy,' now's abusing HRW position Ophir Dayan: 'Shakir expulsion: The upper court is an important boundary mark.' November 9, 2019: Shakir, who took up his current position in 2016, has been involved and invested in the Israeli-Arab conflict since his days as a student. While studying at Stanford University, he was president of the university's anti-Israel group, and even submitted a boycott proposal on behalf of Israel on its behalf, calling for the university to withdraw its investments from companies doing business in Israel. Even then, in...

A couple months ago I found out about the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System Website Here that is setup to supposedly receive and report information about peoples adverse reactions to injections of COVID19 vaccines. So far all Ive got from the site is acute frustration trying to figure it out.

More Cleveland-area companies are taking steps to bring employees back to the office as coronavirus vaccinations increase and case numbers drop. Business leaders say they don’t know whether a return to normal office life will last because they need to reconsider their budget capacity for rent. Anecdotal evidence, though, shows downtown Cleveland might bustle in coming weeks, boosting restaurants and businesses that lost foot traffic in the pandemic. And, unlike in the fall when return plans were scuttled by spikes in cases and deaths, there’s more reason to be to believe the return plans will move forward this time, in...

Temporal_Relation_Between_Second_Dose_BNT162b2_mRN.pdf file:///C:/Users/Owner/Downloads/Temporal_Relation_Between_Second_Dose_BNT162b2_mRN.pdf This case highlights a potential relation between the second dose of a COVID-19 vaccine and mild cardiac involvement, compatible with acute myocarditis in an otherwise healthy patient with a previous exposure to SARS-COV-2 infection. Pharmacovigilance on cardiac injury is of paramount importance in this initial phase of massive COVID-19 campaigns with the aim to identify specific populations at increased risk and the target organs of adverse events. Even if no causal relationship can be demonstrated in this case report between the second dose of BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccination and acute myocarditis, the timing of the onset and the...

- May 20, 2021 - Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America See, 35 wayward Republicans—they just can’t help themselves. We have much better policy and are much better for the Country, but the Democrats stick together, the Republicans don’t. They don’t have the Romney’s, Little Ben Sasse’s, and Cheney’s of the world. Unfortunately, we do. Sometimes there are consequences to being ineffective and weak. The voters understand!

The Lord tells us do not let the sun go down with anger neither give place to the devil. Often, as small offenses occur in a family every day, we need to not hold onto bitter thoughts. It is like setting a place for the devil to sit at the table and he has rude table manners! It's like trying to thank the Lord for the blessing of being together and enjoying a meal prepared with love but the door was left open and flies came in with their germs; you wind up distracted and have to swat them meanwhile...

Trump to hold rallies in Florida, Georgia, Ohio and North Carolina President Donald Trump revealed Friday that he will hold campaign-style rallies in four battleground states in the coming weeks as speculation swirls that he’ll mount another bid for the White House in 2024. “Relatively soon, we’ll be doing one in Florida, we’re gonna do one in Ohio, we’re gonna do one in Georgia, we’re gonna do one in North Carolina,” Trump told One America News. “We’ll be announcing them very soon over the next week or two, and I think we’ll probably start in Florida and Ohio and we’ll...

On this date in 1701, the pirate William Kidd hanged at London’s Execution Dock; his body was afterwards gibbeted at Tilbury Port. Alhough his famous buried treasure and its subsequent literary afterlife has helped make Kidd one of history’s best-known buccaneers, the man more closely resembles a startup entrepreneur … just a monumentally unlucky one. The Scotsman had done well enough as a relatively legitimate privateer raiding enemy French ships to settle down in colonial Manhattan in the 1690s. He made a prosperous marriage to a wealthy widow, and for several years he dwelt as a respectable burgher who helped...

A block of cheese proved to be the undoing of a man involved in a massive drugs conspiracy. Carl Stewart used the EncroChat encryption service in a bid to evade detection, adopting the handle "Toffeeforce" to cover his tracks as he supplied large amounts of class A and B drugs. But after the encryption device was busted by law enforcement agencies, Stewart was identified after sharing an image of a block of cheese in the palm of his hand, from which his fingerprints were analysed. Stewart, 39, of Gem Street, Vauxhall, appeared at Liverpool Crown Court for sentencing after he...

More than 100 people gathered in North Portland on Saturday for a rally and march against gun violence organized by a group of Black faith and community leaders. The so-called “March Against Murder” drew speakers from across the city, all of them Black men and one woman who has lost two sons to gun violence. Their message: That both government officials and the community need to step up to curb the epidemic of gun violence that’s swept through the city. Portland has had 33 homicides in 2021, including four in the past week and a half alone. That puts the...

One of Albert Einstein's many aphorisms, "three great forces rule the world: stupidity, fear and greed," is particularly apt in the COVID-19 era. Our government's duty is to warn the public of a possible pandemic and recommend precautions. However, the initial COVID tactic was to strike fear into our hearts and minds. The constant display of COVID "cases" on the nightly news suggested certain death awaited those who ventured out of their homes. During the Diamond Princess cruise ship's outbreak in early February 2020, we had a real-world demonstration of the behavior of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Trapped in a floating...

(CNN) - Protesters rallied in cities across the United States on Saturday in support of Palestinians, days after Israel and Hamas agreed to a ceasefire ending the latest round of violence and bloodshed in a decades-long conflict. More than 90 events were planned for the weekend, including rallies in New York, Houston, Philadelphia, Chicago and Portland. Protesters showed support for Palestinians and accused the Israeli government of using disproportionate force and indiscriminately bombing densely populated civilian areas in Gaza. The Israeli government has accused Hamas of launching rocket attacks from those population centers. **SNIP** Dana Barqawi, 33, says she attended...

The University of Notre Dame is scheduled to hold its 176th commencement ceremony Sunday, and conspicuously absent will be President Biden. Mr. Biden will not deliver the address to the Notre Dame 2021 graduating class, breaking with recent tradition for newly installed administrations, as the nation’s second Catholic president continues to draw fire for pursuing a staunchly pro-choice policy agenda. The White House told the Catholic News Agency that the president was invited but had a scheduling conflict, avoiding a brewing uproar over whether the Catholic institution should celebrate Mr. Biden by awarding him an honorary degree, as is customary...

So you’re thinking about trading in your gas-guzzling SUV for a futuristic, energy-efficient, quiet-as-a-nun-walking-through-the-Vatican fully electric vehicle? Mazel Tov! But you’re wondering how long it takes to charge an EV? Well, fine sir or madam, you’ve come to the right place.The electron pit-stop offers different charge rates based on capability, type of charger, weather, temperature, how many cars are connected to the station, time of day, and your car’s battery capacity. As such, EV chargers often require a quick tutorial by the manufacturer or dealer. But just like pumping gas, after a few fill-ups it becomes second nature.To make understanding...

The Houthi takeover of oil-rich Marib will be a deafening blow to Yemen, laying the groundwork for the divide between north and south Ongoing for months, the Battle of Marib has left tens of Yemenis dead and thousands displaced. The city was the temporary home of millions of refugees who fled from northern Yemen following clashes between the Houthi militia and the internationally recognised government. During the years of the Yemen War which erupted with the intervention of the Saudi-led Arab Coalition to support said government in March 2015, the region and city of Marib was the most secure area...

While many in the West denounced Israel for its military strikes in the Gaza Strip over the past week, prominent Arab writers and political analysts held the Iranian-backed Hamas responsible for the violence and bloodshed.These Arabs evidently understand what the anti-Israel activists around the world fail to see — that Hamas has brought nothing but disaster and despair to the two million Palestinians living under its rule in the Gaza Strip.These Arabs also seem to understand that Israel is not waging war on the Palestinians, but against an Islamist terrorist group whose charter openly calls for jihad (holy war) and...

During the keynote speech at the annual Lincoln Day Dinner in Pennsylvania, DeSantis rebuked recent amnesty suggestions by Republican lawmakers and Bush’s amnesty coalition. DeSantis said: There’s a lot of talk about unity or disunity in the Republican Party, this person, that person … I will tell you this, as we look forward to the fights ahead, we cannot — indeed we will not — go back to the days of the failed Republican establishment of yesteryear. We are not going to do that. We have to reject open borders, we have to stand for the rule of law and...

In the 16 years since Israel withdrew from the entire Strip, the region has changed dramatically. But Gaza remains stuck in place. Summer Rains, Cast Lead, Pillar of Defense, Protective Edge, Black Belt, and now, Guardian of the Walls. Each one was an IDF operation in the Gaza Strip. Summer Rains (2006) went on for four months; Cast Lead (2009) three weeks; Pillar of Defense (2012) a week; Protective Edge (2014) 50 days; Black Belt (2019) less than 72 hours; and now, Guardian of the Walls, 11 days. In the 16 years since Israel withdrew unilaterally from the Gaza Strip,...

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) - A federal judge overseeing the criminal case against former political donor Ed Buck Friday denied a request to postpone the trial that has been set to begin July 13. Buck, 66, was arrested last September after being charged in the United States District Court with providing methamphetamine to a man who died after receiving the drug intravenously. He was subsequently charged with one charge alleging that Buck knowingly enticed 26-year-old Gemmel Moore to travel to the Los Angeles area to engage in prostitution and that he further allegedly provided methamphetamine to Moore, who overdosed on the...
