#israel #veto #UN #USA

In a remarkable development, the USA has allowed a UN security resolution against Israeli settlements to pass. In the past four decades, USA has vetoed more than forty UN resolutions against Israel. The USA always officially claimed that they support a "two-state" solution while shielding Israel from any aftermath from their settlement building. But this facade has been hard to maintain in recent years due to Netanyahu's hardline positions.

In some ways, it is surprising that it took so long for Obama administration to act against Israel. Politically, Netanyahu often went out of his way to piss off Obama administration. From giving a talk in US senate attacking Obama administration's policies, making more and more hardline positions instead of giving lip service to the "two-state" solution Bibi continued causing headaches to Obama. There was even a video that showed a candid Netanyahu boasting about fooling the USA. (http://www.thenational.ae/news/world/middle-east/netanyahu-admits-on-video-he-deceived-us-to-destroy-oslo-accord).

I am glad that Obama administration finally found a backbone. But this is too little, too late. Obama administration has only days left. Nothing will happen to Israel and their settlements because of this one resolution. Trump had already promised Israel his support for the settlements and scrapping of the official US position of "two-state solution". Maybe Trump's brazen position motivated the Obama govt to make such a historical position. However, the only net result of this decision is to make Trump more palatable to the American neoliberal hawks and pro-Zionist groups.


The United States on Friday allowed a UN Security Council resolution condemning Israeli settlement construction to be adopted, defying extraordinary pressure from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government in alliance with President-elect Donald Trump.

Your Winter Guide to Northern California Vacations

It’s winter in California, meaning the once-golden hills are now a pleasant green; the night arrives agonizingly early; and the stream of traffic between Tahoe and the Bay Area is pretty much continuous. Still, when it comes to getting away, there’s a lot to choose from. From snowy ski destinations to beach paradises, California, as usual, offers pretty much whatever you want.

We’ve put together a short curated “guide to guides” for those looking to get away — but not too far away — to California’s winter wonderlands. Here’s our guide to weekend trips from the Bay Area that don’t require a lot of dough or planning.

#1000000000 in USA look and have #semiticdna like him. #USarabia is over folks. #bookoflife #archangelmichael  
#terrorism is #brown vs. White but #semitic = #fakewhite and so the USA is long gone to duffas lying haters full of  hate and ignorance.
  #USA should take national vote, no more Noordics or scandos or white russians or white Chinese, so we are very clear on who gets privledge. these creeps have gotton the FULL #Privileged form Brown crapper #Jerrybrown who sucks them, each day as his own lil sissy boys.  These latin semitics call themselves whites, fucking liars and haters need a bath in a lake of fire, the entire lying #AntiChrist #Latino crews.  they have death cult religion, that #liberals today fashion, it is similar to the #churchofsatan   about 75% of all  #brownafricanAmericans side with these people to kill or stop white agency, all over planet earth. Even #nigerians are taking over #ireland b/c the majority on earth of  #semitics r #eviljin  
 they spout repeated lies that Scot or Irish were the slave traders who set up Factories on the African west coast in the  mid 15 th century. These #USblacks are vicious liars and haters. it was people that look  like him and blacks love to support these creepos to eradicate the whites because they do not play their lazy #welfare violent #hiphop programs of global hate. #christianity needs to end persecution of  Real #moslems & 99% of Moslems were forced into this religion but are noting to do  with it at all. Just use it because they have no other ideas, because jews keep them solely ignorant. #caliphateornia

Kilauea Volcano: World’s most active volcano in Hawaii erupts!

The lava flow from Hawaii’s Kilauea Volcano vent has attracted thousands of visitors since it began oozing down in May and finally reached the ocean this week.

Keaka Hunter, a security guard patrolling the area, said about 2,000 people came to see the flow Monday night, hours before the lava entered the ocean for the first time in nearly three years. Previous days drew an average of about 1,000 people.

The U.S. Geological Survey is cautioning visitors about safety risks, which include flying debris and acidic plume containing fine volcanic particles that can irritate the eyes, skin and lungs. The new land may also be unstable because it’s built on unconsolidated lava fragments and sand, which can easily be eroded by surf.

Earth from Space: Wolverine Glacier, Kenai Mountains, Alaska

In this composite image you can see the Wolverine Glacier and surroundings in the Kenai Mountains, Alaska, USA, imaged by the Operational Land Imager (OLI) aboard Landsat 8. The images were taken August 31st, 2016 at 9:02pm GMT.

This image is showing the Wolverine Glacier in the Kenai Mountains (https://goo.gl/mjNpCv) on the coast of south-central Alaska. It is one of the now four Benchmark Glaciers in the USGS Glaciers and Climate Project (https://goo.gl/Q9Stko). They take long-time measurements of the glacier's mass-balance (https://goo.gl/s4XDdP), thereby quantifying this changes to understand the relationship between climate change and glaciers. You can read more on the Wolverine Glacier here:

You can download this image and images showing more of the area around the glacier (27MP) here on Flickr:
