Subject: Anti-BHO "blasts" Continue - XLV [Martin/Zimmerman & Middle East]

While America was fixated on Martin/Zimmerman, much has transpired elsewhere; review ofthe more recently-acquired e-mails suggests key-concepts regarding this trial have been captured,except for a few points that are first summarized. Thereafter, that which has been churning inthe Middle East is conveyed as succinctly as possible, recognizing throughout tha

t BHOs inputremains unproductive. Also noted were recognition that the Pa. voter ID law goes on trial onMonday and that, as the Newsweek-sale-nears, there has been a staff-exodus.

Martin/Zimmerman. As noted a few hours ago, following imposition of enormous social-pressure, the DoJ announced it was reviewing this case for possible involvement; what thenemerged, however, was evidence that [as per last nights assertions by the prosecuting attorneys]

FBI agents found no evidence that Zimmerman was racist and, specifically, the Lead Cop ToldFBI that Zimmerman was Not A Racist. In addition, while Zimmermans Legal Team SetsSights On NBC, revealed were both a cover-up [By Media, School, Police, Prosecutors] ofTrayvon Martin's Involvement In Local Burglaries and this-picture-of-trayvon-on-night-he-was-shot.

Also revealed was the fact that BHOs openness pledge has been violated by both AG-Holderand HRC, for neither has divulged travel logs/expenses. Finally, it has been revealed that, as acollege student, AG-Holder participated in the armed takeover of a former ColumbiaUniversity ROTC office.

*

Iran. As noted earlier [and as conveyed in the weekly communiqu issued after his Cabinetmeeting], Bibi said Israel Insists That Iran Close Illegal Nuclear Facility in Qom and HaltEnrichment; reinforced is the prior conclusion that the Ron Dermer Appointment Signals theintent to press this message upon BHO. Illustrative of the failure of sanctions is todaysannouncement that Iran agreed to take all oil payments from India in rupees. This is why thepromise by BHO to Israel today that More pressure would be exerted on Iran appeared hollow.

Syria. Legal Fears Slowed American Aid to Rebels, even as Pakistani-Taliban-set-up-camps-in-Syria-and-joined-rebels. As Syria Denied Latakia Strike Occurred, Israeli TV Released SatelliteFootage of Site with reports suggesting the Attack in Syria had been conducted by an Israelisubmarine; as noted a few days ago, the US reported to the media that Israel had indeed struckthe Latakia arsenal last week. [When asked about this today onFace the Nation, Bibi declined

to discuss any specifics.]

England. AUK Politician, Sir Bob Russell, Equated Life of Palestinians to Holocaustand theanti-Semitism ofGlenn Greenwald [NSA-leak publisher] has been Exposed. Curiously, a UKTelegraphEditor Slammed Jew-Obsessed Lib Dems.

I srael. There were No Reports of Jewish Riots After Grossly Antisemitic Show Begins Airingon Arab TV, and a PA economic plan was taking shape. Intriguing was release in the ArabicMedia of a Secret $8 billion deal between Obama and the Muslim Brotherhood. Meanwhile, a 3-Year-Old who had been Critically Injured in an Arab Rock-Throwing Attack Spent her FirstWeekend at Home.

Arab All iances. Bin-Ladens secret life [and how he remained protected in Pakistan] has beendetailed; meanwhile, Iran's Ahmadinejad announced an upcoming visit to Iraq. Egypt wasviewed as likely to rejoin the Gulf front against Iran; through it all, it was Reported that Saudimissile sites still target Iranand Israel. Finally, the fall of Morsi was viewed as harmingHamas, which still appears to have the backing of Qatar and Turkey; nevertheless, the divorcefrom Iran and Syria, followed by the collapse of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, give theimpression that Hamas has buckled at the knees.

Egypt. Obamas Ambassador Ordered Egypt to Release All Muslim Brotherhood Members, asEgypt announced on Saturday that a criminal investigation against deposed Islamist presidentMohamed Morsi had been initiated; prosecutors said they were examining complaints of spying,inciting violence and ruining the economy. The followingwhich conveys a key-event thathasnt yet been reported anywhere else, and which explicitly undermines BHOs stated-desiresis the text of the article [which isnt yet loaded independently on the Internet, c/o an e-mail fromIMRA]:

Egypts first freely elected leader has been held at an undisclosed location since

the army removed him from power on July 3, but has not yet been charged withany crime. In recent days Washington has called for him to be freed and for theauthorities to stop arresting leaders of his Muslim Brotherhood.The public prosecutors office said in a statement it had received complaintsagainst Morsi, eight other named Islamist figures including the Brotherhoodsleader, Mohamed Badie, and others it did not identify.The military says it deposed Morsi in a justified response to popular demand aftermillions of people demonstrated against him. The Brotherhood says it was a coupthat reversed democracy.Turmoil in the most populous Arab state has alarmed the United States and otherWestern donors. Egypt straddles the Suez Canal and signed a US-brokered peacetreaty with Israel in 1979.

Complaints such as those against Morsi are a first step in the criminal process,allowing prosecutors to begin an investigation that can lead to charges.Announcing the step was unusual: typically prosecutors wait until charges arefiled.The prosecutors did not say who had made the complaints.

to be identified.

Brotherhood spokesman Gehad El Haddad said the charges were absurd and thatit was the authorities themselves that were responsible for inciting violence.They execute the crime themselves and then they slap it on their opponents. As

long as you have a criminal police force and a complicit judiciary, the evidencewill appear and the judge will be satisfied. And the media will sell it to thepublic.Morsis Brotherhood called on Saturday [13 July] for more mass demonstrations
