Boycott of Israeli settlement goods gains momentum
An official document was issued in response to German opposition members. “In our view products should be labeled ‘Made in Israel’ only if they are manufactured within the 1967 borders,” the document states, according to Israeli press reports. That would exclude products made in the more than 140 communities built on land that Israel acquired in 1967, also known as the “West Bank.” The European Union (EU) Ambassador to Israel Andrew Standley told Army Radio that efforts to single out products produced in these areas reflect the growing European impatience with what he called “Israeli settlements.” He said the new labeling would help European companies distinguish between products made in pre-1967 areas and post-1967 areas.

CIA says it 'wants to know everything'
On its website, the agency explained that every day the amount of data available is a deluge. “Cell phones, smart houses, satellite sensors and countless other sources are creating huge amounts of information – known collectively as ‘big data,’” Hunt said. “It’s the CIA’s job to leverage the world of big data, find out what actually matters, connect the dots and figure out what our adversaries are intending to do,” he said.

Middle East peace talks must succeed to avoid despair, says UK minister

Thousands of Germans evacuate as dam on Elbe river breaks
In Magdeburg, one of the oldest cities in eastern Germany and a regional capital, some 23,000 people were asked to evacuate as water levels in the Elbe rose to a record 7.48 meters, around 5 meters above normal and surpassing the level reached in devastating floods in 2002. "We helped yesterday to carry sandbags to secure the town. The mood is very depressed and frightened because many people have to leave their homes," said resident Liane Nagen.

Europe alarmed by US surveillance
Justice Commissioner Viviane Reding plans to raise the concerns with US Attorney General Eric Holder on Friday. Last week a series of leaks by a former CIA worker led to claims the US had a vast surveillance network with much less oversight than previously thought. The US insists its snooping is legal under domestic law. The Obama administration is investigating whether the disclosures by former CIA worker Edward Snowden were a criminal offence.

Who needs the Fourth Amendment? Don’t you trust your government?
Trust us. Would your government – and the private contractors your government hires to do the work – do anything bad? Snooping into the intimate details of the lives of everyone is not nice. Besides, it could be worse, and that’s all the proof anyone needs to see that it’s not really bad at all. So don’t worry. Be happy. This is the emerging defense of the government in “the metadata scandal.” President Obama told a California audience Friday that before he was president he, too, had “a healthy skepticism” of the aggressive intelligence services, but now, with further safeguards, which he did not identify, he decided that snooping is worth it.

A 'Super Tornado' Like El Reno Could Hit a Major City
Senior Vice President of AccuWeather Enterprise Solutions and Tornado Expert Mike Smith described the El Reno, Okla., tornado, which is considered the widest tornado in recorded history, as a "super tornado." He fears that one of these super tornadoes could hit a major city, and it would require a much more upscale search, rescue and recovery response than has been done with less intense tornadoes or devastating tornadoes hitting rural or suburban areas.

Israel losing America
A Jew in the Land of Israel goes to sleep at night with at least one thing not to be concerned about: He knows that the United States – the great America – always stands by Israel. And he knows that as long as this great world power stands by us, we have nothing to worry about, at least in terms of international support.
