A Palestinian investigation team probing the mysterious death of the former leader of Palestine Liberation Organization, Yasser Arafat, says he was assassinated by Israel.
“The inquiry committee has been able to identify the assassin of former president Yasser Arafat,” said Tawfiq Tirawi, the head of the team, AFP reported on Tuesday.
He said “Israel is responsible” for Arafat’s death, adding, “We still need some time to elucidate the exact circumstances of this assassination.”
The announcement came just one day before the 11th death anniversary of the Nobel Peace Prize winner. About two months ago, a French team wrapped up investigations without any charges or any tangible results.
In 2012, Arafat’s widow, Suha, filed a legal compliant in France, claiming that her husband had been assassinated while staying at the Mercy military hospital near Paris in 2004. He was moved to the hospital the previous month for diarrhea and vomiting.

Speculation that Obama would intervene to allow convicted Israeli spy to leave for Israel appears unfounded; ‘Obama does not intervene in the judicial process.’ WASHINGTON – US President Barack Obama will not use his authority to allow Jonathan Pollard to move Israel after he is released for parole next week, according to a Washington Post report on Monday.
Pollard, a convicted Israeli spy, is set to be freed after serving 30 years in American prison under the stipulation that he remain in the US for five years under supervision.

(JTA) — Democratic senators in a letter called on President Barack Obama to write a new and strengthened “Memorandum of Understanding” on security assistance to Israel.
The 16 senators, led by Michael Bennet, D-Colo., Richard Blumenthal, D–Conn., and Ben Cardin, D-Md., — the ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, sent the letter to the president on Monday, the day Obama met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The letter called on Obama to conclude the new memorandum as well as to “provide the necessary and appropriate measures to deter Iran,” such as ordinance and delivery systems, as well as to enhance Israel’s qualitative military edge over countries in the region.
“These measures are necessary to deter conventional and asymmetric threats to Israel. We also support providing missile defense funding, as necessary and appropriate, to accelerate the co-development of missile defense systems, and increased bilateral cooperation on cyber, intelligence, and research and development for tunnel detection and mapping technologies,” the letter said.

An Israeli minister has accused the European Union of “disguised anti-Semitism” in response to a decision by the EU to start labeling products made in the illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank.
The EU’s proposal to order the labeling comes as it is dissatisfied with the Israeli regime’s continued settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territories.
According to an EU official, whose name was not mentioned in the reports, a decision could be made in the Belgian capital of Brussels as soon as Wednesday.
The 28-member bloc has already banned goods manufactured in the Israeli settlements from receiving customs exemptions.
Accusing the EU of targeting Israel, Yuval Steinitz, the Israeli energy minister, said on Tuesday, “What you see is really that some people, and here unfortunately some institutions in the European Union, are taking steps against Israel that are unparalleled in similar situations.”
“We cannot conceive it but as some disguised anti-Semitism,” the Israeli minister stated.
Products made in the Israeli settlements account for a small portion of Israeli exports. However, labeling the goods has a symbolic meaning and could discourage consumers from a purchase.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas says he had rejected a plan proposed to him by Egypt’s ousted President Mohamed Morsi to slice 1,000 kilometers off Sinai and add it to the Gaza Strip.
Abbas made the comments during a meeting with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi in Cairo on Sunday, al-Arabiya TV network reported on Monday.
Abbas stated that Morsi had urged him to accept the plan despite his insistence that he “would not accept one centimeter of Egyptian land.”
According to the Jerusalem Post, Abbas also claimed the plan had been devised by the Palestinian resistance movement, Hamas, and Israel under the supervision of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, and that he was aware of the names of the rest of the people involved in the negotiations.
Hamas leaders have denied having any negotiations with Israel and the claims that their movement wishes to annex a part of Sinai to the Palestinian coastal enclave.

State media reporting huge blast in Alawite stronghold; monitoring groups expect death toll to rise
At least 22 people were killed in mortar fire Tuesday on Syria’s coastal city of Latakia, in one of the bloodiest shellings there since the country’s war began, state media reported.
Latakia lies in the heartland of the minority Alawite sect to which Syria’s ruling clan belongs and has been largely spared attacks during four and a half years of civil war.
The toll rose to “22 people killed and 62 wounded” in the attack on eastern neighborhoods of the regime stronghold, state television said.
Earlier, state news agency SANA had said 12 people died and 57 were hurt when two mortar rounds struck residential neighborhoods.
A rare car bombing in September killed 10 people and wounded dozens in Hamam Square in the provincial capital.

(JTA) — A bipartisan letter signed by 36 U.S. senators expresses concern over forthcoming European Union guidelines on labeling Israeli products imported by EU countries.
The letter spearheaded by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, was sent Monday to Federica Mogherini, the EU’s foreign policy chief and vice president of the European Commission.
The EU is expected this week to issue guidelines that will require products manufactured in West Bank Jewish settlements be labeled differently from those manufactured in uncontested areas of Israel.
“As allies, elected representatives of the American people, and strong supporters of Israel, we urge you not to implement this labeling policy, which appears intended to discourage Europeans from purchasing these products and promote a de facto boycott of Israel, a key ally and the only true democracy in the Middle East,” the letter says.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (JTA) — The Jewish community accused a popular Brazilian singer of surrendering to anti-Semitism.
Caetano Veloso declared he will not return to Israel due to the “oppression” of the Palestinians only a few months after performing in Tel Aviv in defiance of a strong boycott appeal from leftist groups.
“Caetano surrendered to the anti-Semitic wave and preferred to act blindly before the incitement to terrorism against Jews,” said Fernando Lottenberg, president of Brazilian Israelite Confederation, the country’s umbrella Jewish organization. “Instead of not returning to Israel, he should go to the country whose music he declared to love so much and understand better what happens there.”
Veloso’s declaration was published over the weekend by Folha de S. Paulo, Brazil’s most influential daily paper, with the headline “To visit Israel to never go back to Israel.” The singer said he reached his decision after visiting a Palestinian village in the West Bank.

(JTA) — London Mayor Boris Johnson said in Tel Aviv that boycotting Israel is “foolish.”
Johnson, of the Conservative Party, also said Monday that those who advocate such a move make up “a very small minority.”
“I cannot think of anything more foolish” than to boycott “a country that when all is said and done is the only democracy in the region, the only place that has in my view a pluralist open society,” he said, The Associated Press reported.

(JTA) — A new study finds that contrary to conventional wisdom, children raised in nonreligious homes are more generous and altruistic than their peers who receive a religious upbringing.
Called “The Negative Association between Religiousness and Children’s Altruism across the World,” the study of 1,170 children found that the children from secular homes were more likely to share with their classmates and less likely to endorse harsh punishments for those who pushed or bumped into others, the Los Angeles Times reported. The respondents came from a variety of religious backgrounds.
The results “contradict the common-sense and popular assumption that children from religious households are more altruistic and kind toward others,” said the study published Nov. 5 in the journal Current Biology.

Jewish groups joined black activists in demanding action over racist incidents on state university’s flagship campus
COLUMBIA, Missouri (AP) — The president of the University of Missouri system and the head of its flagship campus resigned Monday with the football team and others on campus in open revolt over what they saw as indifference to racial tensions at the school.
President Tim Wolfe, a former business executive with no previous experience in academia, took “full responsibility for the frustration” students expressed and said their complaints were “clear” and “real.”
For months, black student groups had complained that Wolfe was unresponsive to racial slurs and other slights on the overwhelmingly white main campus of the state’s four-college system. The complaints came to a head two days ago, when at least 30 black football players announced that they would not play until the president left. A graduate student went on a weeklong hunger strike.
Wolfe’s announcement came at the start of what had been expected to be a lengthy closed-door meeting of the school’s governing board.
“This is not the way change comes about,” he said, alluding to recent protests, in a halting statement that was simultaneously apologetic, clumsy and defiant. “We stopped listening to each other.”
