New law would allow employers to bar unvaccinated workers

Written on . Posted in PT Middle East.

Arutz Sheva: New legislation set to be introduced to the Knesset by Health Minister Yuli Edelstein (Likud) would allow employers to force their employees to get vaccinated against the coronavirus, by enabling them to bar unvaccinated workers from coming in to their place of business.

Edelstein announced Wednesday afternoon at a press conference that he will push for the bill, after earlier efforts to draft a far more expansive bill which would have empowered the state to compel every citizen to get the COVID vaccine.

“Legislation will be promoted which will allow employers to prevent the unvaccinated from coming in to work,” Edelstein said at the press conference. Read More

Dallas Mavericks Owner Mark Cuban Cancels the National Anthem

Written on . Posted in PT World Order.

PJ Media: The Athletic reports that billionaire and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban has canceled the National Anthem at the NBA team’s home games.

The Dallas Mavericks have ceased playing the national anthem before home games this season and do not plan to play it moving forward, a decision made by owner Mark Cuban that he confirmed to The Athletic on Monday evening.

The Mavericks have played 13 pre-season and regular season games at home in Dallas without playing the anthem. There was no discussion or internal organization announcement, and Cuban confirmed he made the decision. He has declined further comment.

Cuban has criticized Americans who want to see the National Anthem respected, and not used for political protests at sports games. Read More …

Is Palestine a State?

Written on . Posted in PT Middle East.

Jewish Press: The highly politicized International Criminal Court just declared statehood for Palestinians. They did it without any negotiation with Israel, without any compromise, and without any recognized boundaries.

They also did it without any legal authority, because the Rome Statute, which established the International Criminal Court, makes no provision for this criminal court to recognize new states. Moreover, neither Israel nor the United States ratified that treaty, so the decisions of the International Criminal Court are not binding on them. Nor is this divided decision binding on signatories, since it exceeds the authority of the so-called court.

I say “so-called” court, because the International Criminal Court is not a real court in any meaningful sense of that word.

The United States should reject the International Criminal Court decision not only because it is unfair to its ally Israel, but because it sets a dangerous precedent that could be applied against the United States and other nations that operate under the rule of law. Read More

IMF Wants To Use “Digital Footprint Of Customers’ Online Activities” To Assess Creditworthiness

Written on . Posted in PT Global Economy.

Zero Hedge: For years, researchers have warned of a system in which the government controls every aspect of its citizens’ lives. Every citizen would have to rely entirely on the government to survive in this system. This system has been openly discussed for many years by the “ruling class.” Aka: those who have been allotted social credit (or not) and power based upon their views and opinions.

The system has already begun in China and is now spreading globally

In a recent post, “What is Really New In Fintech,” on the IMF blog (International Monetary Fund), authors Arnoud Boot, Peter Hoffmann, Luc Laeven, and Lev Ratnovski suggest “rapid technological change” in the financial industry. Many social media and other online platforms are now creating and accepting payments. This revolutionary change in the banking world could change the face of finance forever.

As a result of this rapid change, the authors bring up the following questions:

  • What are the transformative aspects of recent financial innovation that can uproot finance as we know it?
  • Which new policy challenges will the transformation of finance bring?

To answer these questions, the authors wrote:

Recent IMF and ECB staff research distinguishes two areas of financial innovation. One is information: new tools to collect and analyse data on customers, for example for determining creditworthiness. Another is communication: new approaches to customer relationships and the distribution of financial products. We argue that

Deep State Officials Helped Planned Parenthood Illegally Get $80M in COVID Funds

Written on . Posted in PT World Order.

LifeSite News: The Small Business Administration hid communications with Planned Parenthood regarding COVID-19 loans that Republicans say were illegal, emails obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation show.

The SBA released heavily redacted emails between the agency, lenders and Planned Parenthood affiliates in response to a Freedom of Information Act request the DCNF filed in May 2020. GOP lawmakers had previously demanded an investigation into $80 million in Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, saying they were obtained illegally.

The SBA has repeatedly declined to comment on the Republicans’ claims.

“Americans have a right to know why their tax dollars went to Planned Parenthood’s abortion clinics instead of struggling small businesses, non-profits, and churches,” Sen. Tom Cotton told the DCNF. Read More

Trump’s second impeachment trial begins in Senate

Written on . Posted in PT World Order.

New York Post: The second impeachment trial against former President Donald Trump got underway in the Senate Tuesday.

The opening of the trial will begin with four hours of arguments from Trump’s lawyers and the House managers over its constitutionality and then stretch over the rest of the week with a verdict expected possibly early next week.

WASHINGTON, DC - JANUARY 16: The U.S. Capitol is seen behind a fence with razor wire during sunrise on January 16, 2021 in Washington, DC. After last week's riots at the U.S. Capitol Building, the FBI has warned of additional threats in the nation's capital and in all 50 states. …

Democratic House impeachment managers will start Wednesday to press their case against the former president alleging “incitement of insurrection,” over the Capitol riot on Jan. 6

Trump’s legal team is set to argue that the proceeding is unconstitutional because he is no longer in office, and that the former president never deviated from standard political speech in his remarks preceding the incident. Read More

Trump Defeats Castro Communists: Cuba Set to Open Up Its Economy

Written on . Posted in PT Global Economy.

PJ Media:

Well, I did not see this coming. The BBC reports that Cuba is about to open up most of its economy to private ownership.

Cuba!

Cuba has announced it will allow private businesses to operate in most sectors, in what is a major reform to its state-controlled economy.

“…major reform…”? It’s the communists admitting defeat. Because:

The communist country’s economy has been hit hard by the pandemic and US sanctions introduced by the Trump administration.

Last year its economy shrank by 11% – its worst decline in almost three decades – and Cubans have been facing shortages of basic goods.

The report, produced by the Israeli Alma Research and Education Center for geopolitical affairs, highlights a social charity called the Islamic Shiite Waqf Committee in Burj al Barajneh foundation that has been cynically used by Hezbollah to store an array of medium-range Fateh 110 missiles in close proximity to sites such a high school in Beirut.

“This is a continuation of a report that we published in July 2020, which exposed 28 Fateh 110 missile sites in greater Beirut,” Maj. (res.) Tal Beeri, who directs Alma’s research department, told JNS.

“Following our publication, we continued extracting data from the information collected while discovering and uncovering new information. Within this framework, we acted to uncover the identities of the landowners and building owners [where] the Hezbollah sites are located,” he stated. Read More
