Fearing Trump, Republican Jews give Creepy Cruz another look: Zio-Watch, April 11, 2016

Militants from the Takfiri Daesh terrorist group have seized a key town in northern Syria from Turkish-backed militants.

The so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Daesh took control of al-Rai along the Turkish border on Monday morning after intense fighting with other militants in the town.

The news comes four days after Deash lost control of al-Rai to other militants groups, including al-Nusra Front, which is al-Qaeda’s Syrian branch.

Al-Rai, located in Aleppo Province, is a main supply route for Daesh. The Syrian army, backed by Russian aerial cover, seeks to purge the northern province of all Takfiri militants.

On Sunday, Prime Minister Nader al-Halqi said the Syrian army is gearing up to liberate Aleppo.

“We, together with our Russian partners, are preparing for an operation to liberate Aleppo and to block all illegal armed groups which have not joined or have broken the ceasefire deal,” he said.

Hundreds of refugees turned to clinics operated by Doctors Without Borders (MSF) for treatment after a border crackdown by Macedonian police. MSF said around 30 children were teargassed while some reported that they were seized and beaten for an hour.

Children as young as five needed medical attention in the Idomeni camp in Greece after the Sunday clashes, during which the police used tear gas and rubber pullets to suppress a protest, MSF reported.

Two young patients said they were taken into Macedonian territory along with 10 other people and beaten for an hour by police.

“The MSF clinic has been full all day. Three children were brought in with head injuries due to rubber bullets. People outside were shouting and many of them were carrying rubber bullets in their hands,” said Conor Kenny, an MSF doctor in Idomeni.

NEW YORK (JTA) – It might have been the last place you’d expect anger to erupt against the Bernie Sanders campaign.

But at a Jews for Bernie brunch in Manhattan’s Tribeca neighborhood on Sunday, the frustration seemed to boil over when some silver-haired Jewish supporters of Sanders began deriding what they described as the campaign’s lackluster response to perceived missteps by the Democratic presidential candidate on Jewish issues – most recently, last week’s interview with the New York Daily News in which Sanders grossly overestimated the number of Palestinian civilians killed in the 2014 Gaza conflict.

That interview and other Sanders campaign blunders on issues of Jewish concern, several of them complained, are making it more difficult to make the case to fellow Jews to support the Vermont senator in his bid for the White House. When campaign staffers at Sunday’s event tried to steer the public conversation away from those concerns to focus on the logistics of canvassing, a few attendees became visibly irritated.

“I’m very frustrated with the campaign,” Lisa Harbatkin, 72, of Manhattan, told JTA. “Given where today’s left is on Israel, I felt Bernie was too fuzzy on the Palestinians, but good enough. But as the campaign progressed, I became more upset. I wish he wouldn’t hang out so much with Cornel West” – the contentious African-American studies professor who has expressed support for the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions movement against Israel.

(JTA) — A member of Stanford University’s student senate who argued it is “not anti-Semitism” to claim Jews control “the media, economy, government and other social institutions” said he will not run for reelection.

In a statement published April 8 in the student newspaper the Stanford Daily, junior Gabriel Knight said that “my continued presence in the Senate race has become a distraction from the larger ASSU elections and has made it difficult for students to meaningfully discuss campus issues.”

Knight said in the statement of his remarks at the April 5 meeting, which was debating a proposed resolution on anti-Semitism: “I never intended to be hurtful and am saddened by and apologize for the fact that I was. Nevertheless, I hope that this week’s events and my decision to end my campaign do not encourage or substantiate threats to free discussion.”

His remarks came during a debate over language in the proposed resolution, which offers guidelines for defining anti-Semitism and calls on the student governmental body to oppose anti-Semitic activities and fund anti-discrimination education.

An Israeli colonel has been cleared of any criminal wrongdoing after he shot to death a Palestinian teenager last summer.

Colonel Israel Shomer fatally shot Mohammad Kasba on July 3 in Ramallah. The Israeli military claims that Shomen targeted Kasba “in response to the imminent danger” he was facing from the teen.

The Israeli military says the teen had thrown a rock through the windshield of the colonel’s vehicle.

According to the military’s account, the officer exited his vehicle and fired into the air, but “due to the reality of the operational situation, the shots resulted in the death of the assailant.”

The military said it had “concluded that the shooting of the perpetrator was not criminal and the event does not justify taking legal action against the officer.”

A video released by the B’Tselem human rights group, however, shows several shots being fired at the Palestinian teen as he seems to be running away.
