Donald Trump soars to new high of 41 points – more than double his nearest rival: ZioWatch, January 25-26, 2016

In living rooms and meeting halls throughout the state, caucus-goers will group themselves into clusters according to which presidential candidate they favor. By the end of the day, two real-life winners will emerge: not a “leader in the polls,” not a “likely front-runner,” but the Democrat and Republican who will have secured Iowa’s delegation to the parties’ respective conventions in the summer.

Iowa’s delegates, which come as a bloc, account for just 1 percent or so of the national total. But their selections will be the first substantive results in what has been a raucous and unpredictable campaign, rife with speculation, especially on the Republican side.

A week and a day later, voters in New Hampshire will cast ballots in a more straightforward process, and by the late hours of Feb. 9, the race will truly be on – with the media in hot pursuit. At JTA, the question is what it has been for nearly a century: What does all this mean for the Jews?

One woman told the Badische Zeitung that she had been in a club in December, when a large group of African men accosted her.

“I was surrounded and marginalized while dancing,” she said. “The situation was full of male violence. I felt threatened.”

There have also been reports of petty theft occurring in nightspots around the city, which is located in southwestern Germany on the Swiss border.

An armed force set up to protect Libya’s oil assets – the only effective source of income for the failing state – has been accused of siphoning off supplies and then abandoning facilities to advancing Isis fighters, actions that have resulted in more than $60 billion revenue being lost.

The Petroleum Facilities Guard (PFG), a group about 27,000-strong meant to be bipartisan in a country with two rival governments, has become the “biggest obstacle to raising money from the industry and a hindrance to forming a unified government”, according to the head of Libya’s National Oil Corporation (Noc).

The PFG has become a “private army” for its head, Ibrahim Jadran, according to Mustafa Sanalla, chairman of Noc, which is based in Tripoli. “They have tried to sell oil themselves and then they failed to protect the places they were meant to,” he told The Independent.

We are getting reports that IS militants use this remote area to train, rest and replenish their reserves,” Lavrov told a press conference in Moscow on Tuesday. Russia’s top diplomat added that it hasn’t been possible to open the borders since a visa regime was introduced between Russia and Georgia back in 2000 largely because the “terrorist threat coming from the Pankisi Gorge has not faded.”

Lavrov added it makes no sense to discuss the abolition of Russia’s visa regime with Georgia at this stage.

We are ready to launch a visa-free regime in the future, but it is a bit strange if we discuss it at a time when we do not have any diplomatic relations,” the Russian FM said, adding that Georgia, not Moscow, severed its ties with Russia.
