Russia delivering Iranian arms to Assad — report-Moscow’s Syrian base in Latakia said to be a transit point for Tehran’s supply of equipment and troops to Damascus-By Times of Israel staff October 29, 2015, 11:29 am

Russia has reportedly been delivering Iranian weapons to Syria’s embattled regime on a daily basis. Over the past 10 days, shipments in Russian cargo planes have taken place twice daily, the Fox News network reported Thursday, citing Western intelligence sources.The shipments are part of a broad Russian-Iranian-Syrian alliance forged in recent months by a senior Iranian general, Al-Quds Force commander Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani. Soleimani is said to be coordinating the Russian-Iranian supply effort.The planes are operating out of Russia’s newly expanded operating base in the Syrian coastal city of Latakia, and were spotted by intelligence agencies on the tarmac at the base.According to the report, “the flights are not registered, and are in breach of two United Nations Security Council resolutions which impose an arms embargo on Iran.”Along with the weapons, Iran is shipping troops into Syria to aid embattled Syrian strongman Bashar Assad — these too are arriving via the Russian base in Latakia.While Iran insists it is only helping Assad’s forces in the country’s four-year-old civil war in an “advisory capacity,” several Iranian generals and a significant number of Shiite Lebanese Hezbollah fighters loyal to Iran have been killed in battles against Islamic State, the al-Qaeda-linked Nusra Front and other rebel groups.AP contributed to this report.

Iran to send ‘fleet of warships’ to the Atlantic Ocean-Tehran’s navy chief says vessels will ‘soon berth’ at Atlantic ports-By Times of Israel staff October 29, 2015, 5:41 pm 74

Iran intends to dispatch “a fleet of warships” to the Atlantic Ocean shortly, the semi-state Fars news agency reported Thursday, quoting the regime’s navy chief.“Our warships will soon berth at ports in the Atlantic Ocean,” Navy Commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari promised at a ceremony on Wednesday marking the return to port of Iranian warships that Fars said had taken part in joint drills with the Russian navy.Sayyari said the Iranian vessels had been in the Caspian Sea and at the Russian port of Astrakhan. “The presence of Iranian warships in international ports shows the Iranian Navy’s prowess,” Fars quoted him saying.Sayyari made a similar pledge to deploy warships in the Atlantic in early 2014. At the time, Iran promised to send its fleet close to American maritime borders as a counter to the US navy’s presence in the Gulf. But in April, the navy chief said the move had been canceled “due to a change in schedule.”The US-Iran relationship remains tense and friction-filled, despite the US-led world powers’ deal with Iran, sealed in July, on curbing its nuclear program.Iran’s supreme leader Ali Khamenei has repeatedly rejected any future talks on other issues, and ruled out normalization with the United States.The former Iranian president Hashemi Rafsanjani was reported to have admitted this week that the country’s nuclear program was started with the intent of building a nuclear weapon, with the express consent and participation of Khamenei. “Our basic doctrine was peaceful usage of the nuclear technology although we never abandoned the idea that if one day we are threatened and it is imperative, we would have the capability for going the other path [to nuclear weapon] as well,” Rafsanjani reportedly said.

No injuries as explosive device targets police in East Jerusalem-Pipe bomb reportedly hurled at Border Police patrol near Mount of Olives; Muslims to be given unfettered access to Temple Mount Friday-By Joshua Davidovich October 29, 2015, 1:51 pm 1-the times of israel

19:25-Bomb thrown at troops in Jerusalem-Israeli news outlets are reporting that an explosive device was hurled at an Israeli patrol in East Jerusalem, near the Mount of Olives.There are no injuries from the attack. According to Channel 10, the device was a pipe bomb.Earlier in the day, a rescue organization reported that Israelis have been targeted with 18 explosive devices in the last month and a half.-19:19-Police won’t restrict Temple Mount access-Police say they will not restrict access to the Temple Mount for Muslim worshipers on Friday, in a possible sign of decreasing tensions, the Ynet news website reports.Police have in past weeks restricted Muslim men under 50 from ascending the holy site in hopes of keeping violent protests from breaking out on the holy site.Tensions in Jerusalem have calmed in recent days, though Hebron and the southern West Bank have seen near daily stabbing and other attacks.-19:11-Mentos rolls into Middle East conflict-We know what happens when you drop Mentos into Diet Coke, but how about when you drop it into the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? A picture of a Mentos package with the words “I love Israel” written on it, from at least a year ago, has somehow popped back up on social media, and is landing the candymaker in the middle of a heated battle between Israel supporters and boycotters.The picture of the package, which seems to have been taken in a store with American candy bars, dates from at least summer 2014.Online, it has garnered declarations of love for the Jewish State, and promises to boycott the product, which is available in a number of Arab states.Mentos has not commented on the hubbub.

Landing in Tel Aviv, Iberia pilot says ‘Welcome to Palestine’-‘He didn’t mention Israel once,’ passengers say; Spanish carrier apologizes, says pilot taken off Israel route pending probe-By Times of Israel staff October 29, 2015, 3:37 pm 65

Israeli passengers on an Israel-bound Iberia flight were astonished late Wednesday when the captain announced near the end of the flight that he was preparing to land the plane “in Palestine.”During the flight from Madrid by Spain’s national carrier, the pilot announced in Spanish that he was preparing to land “in Tel Aviv, in Palestine.” In English, he subsequently said he was preparing to land “in Tel Aviv,” and did not repeat the “Palestine” comment; neither did he say “Israel.”Lior, a passenger on the flight, told Channel 2 news that he was “a little bit shocked.”“I don’t understand why he said this,” said Lior. “We live in the State of Israel and he should have said ‘Israel.’ There was a reason he didn’t say it in English. It was deliberate.”Another passenger said “everyone noticed” that the pilot didn’t mention Israel by name.One of the passengers sent a letter to the company complaining about the pilot’s conduct, saying he and his family “were very offended,” and adding, “It is inappropriate and does serve your company well,” Channel 2 reported.The Spanish news website 20 Minutos reported on Thursday morning that the Israeli ambassador in Madrid penned a “tough letter” to the president of Iberia in which he asked him to take disciplinary measures against the pilot.Yedioth Ahronoth reported that an Iberia spokeswoman in Israel apologized on behalf of the airline and said the pilot who made the announcement would not be flying the route to Israel until the matter was fully investigated by the airline.

Israeli woman lightly wounded in Eilat stabbing-Motive behind attack still unknown; suspected assailant flees scene; Arab teen later detained by police-By Times of Israel staff October 29, 2015, 6:06 pm 1

An Israeli woman was lightly injured during a stabbing in the southernmost city of Eilat on Thursday, the police said.The woman was rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment.The suspected stabber fled the scene shortly after the attack, according to police spokeswoman Luba Samri.Police arrived in force at the scene to search for the attacker and collect evidence and eyewitness testimony.An Arab teenager was arrested during a police search and was taken in for further questioning, Samri said.The motive behind the attack was not yet clear, Samri said, and police were investigating whether it was nationalist or criminal in nature.Earlier Thursday, a Palestinian man attempted to stab an IDF soldier in Hebron, in the second such attack of the day. The soldier was not hurt in the attack, which took place in the city’s Beit Hadassah neighborhood. The assailant was shot by security services, and police reported that he died of his wounds.The attack came just four hours after an IDF soldier was lightly wounded in a similar stabbing attack in the city, near the Tomb of the Patriarchs on the road between the West Bank city and the adjacent Jewish settlement of Kiryat Arba. According to police, the incident occurred during a violent demonstration. A Palestinian man armed with a knife approached Israeli forces. He stabbed one of the IDF soldiers, slicing his face. The soldier recovered from the blow and fought back. The attacker then tried to assault a Border Police officer and was shot to death.Judah Ari Gross contributed to this report.

Meet the Orthodox Jewish physicist rethinking the origins of life-Jeremy England, 33, is an assistant professor at MIT who is bold enough to tackle science’s greatest question: How life arose on our planet-By Simona Weinglass October 29, 2015, 11:07 am 15-the times of israel

This is one of the all-time great questions of science, not to mention religion. So it takes a lot of gumption for a 33-year-old assistant professor at MIT to wade into the debate with a novel answer, one that he says doesn’t necessarily discount religious belief. Although his theories are far from proven, Jeremy England, who also happens to be an Orthodox Jew, is making waves with a bold hypothesis to explain how random molecules bumping into each other might turn into the precursors of life.According to England, under the right conditions, a random group of molecules will self-organize in a way that allows them to more efficiently use energy in their environment. Over time, the system could improve its ability to absorb energy, becoming increasingly lifelike. Nor is it an arbitrary process, but an inherent bias of the physical world, to form such self-organized systems.“If we start with something that’s not alive,” England told The Times of Israel, “and I make available some source of energy in its environment, there might be some tendency within the system to develop an improving ability to absorb that energy.” Over time, he says, “it may come to exhibit strikingly lifelike behaviors.”Right now this is just a theory, but England and his team are developing ways of testing it in simulation that will help them design good experiments in the future.“We’ve made progress, but we have a long way to go,” said England.-What is life?-What is life, and how does it differ from things that are not alive? Most of us have a working definition of life, says England, a sense of what is and isn’t alive, even if we can’t define life precisely.“Trees are alive, fish are alive, clouds are not and rocks are not,” he says.One of the properties that the things we call alive have in common is that they are “well suited at absorbing energy from their environment and then releasing that energy as heat. That’s something that living things do and they do it in ways that are much more skillful than non-living things.”For instance, plants are structured in such a way that they are great at absorbing energy from sunlight. Monkeys are good at finding bananas and eating them.England says that if you take a system containing a tremendous diversity of molecules, then add an external energy source, the molecules will start to arrange themselves in a shape that resonates with their environment.How does this happen? The famous video of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge collapse, and the way a glass breaks when an opera singer reaches a certain pitch, are both examples of the physical phenomenon of resonance, where the shape of object or vessel will affect the pitch that it wants to vibrate at.“If particles are in the right shape they will move and wiggle a lot with their environment. If they’re in the wrong shape they won’t wiggle so much.”Any given system, says England, is constantly fluctuating a little bit and changing its shape, even if this is happening very slowly — for instance, water wearing away at rock or the motion of a glacier.“A system is capable of shifts in its shape but often slowly enough that you’re not keeping track. It will make lots of different random moves but if I am poking at it or singing at it or blowing at it, the system makes a little hop then another random little hop then another, and this is happening at the molecular level.”England says there’s a bias in how these hops happen.“The hops you’re less likely to undo are the ones where you get pushed harder by the environment. The most durable changes in shape happen when the system is shaped to be good at getting pushed on by the environment.”-Why is this important?-Edward J. Larson, a Pulitzer-Prize winning historian of science, told The Times of Israel that if England could demonstrate his theory to be true, “his name would be remembered, he could be the next Darwin.”But that is a big if.The second law of thermodynamics states that systems progress in the direction of increasing disorder or entropy, notes Larson.“Energy shouldn’t self-organize; it should go the other way. Darwin’s big break through was that natural selection permits situations that will allow increasing organization, and that doesn’t really counter the law of thermodynamics because you already have life. What Darwin could never do, and never tried to do, was explain how life began. Once life began, Darwin had a theory of how you could form new species, but Darwin didn’t do anything at all with the origin of life.”For over a century, scientists have been trying to come up with hypotheses as to how life could emerge from random molecules. Some say it happened when lightning passed through organic molecules, while others say life forms were brought to earth by comets, “but nothing has been proven or established yet.”Larson describes England’s theory that molecules might self-organize along the principles of resonance as “clever,” and says that if he could prove it, it would be “a tremendous discovery” that he would expect to see published in the pages of leading peer-reviewed journals like Nature or Science.“Those publications have authority. People wait to see things published there.”England says there is in fact a peer-reviewed theoretical piece coming out in Nature Nanotechnology next month, as well as another piece that is still under peer review, and a simulation study for which his team is just now completing the manuscript and will soon submit.-The implications for faith-According to Larson, a theory about how molecules self-organize into life would be much more attractive to atheists than to religious believers.“One of the problems atheists still have is, ‘OK, where did life come from?’ If you take Darwin, supplemented by the work of the neo-Darwinian synthesis and most recently the web-of-life theory of gene flow, you can say, OK, we don’t necessarily need God to be the origin of species. But religious people could still say that God created life itself and the laws of the universe.”Larson says that if England’s hypothesis were proven, it could push religion back still further.But England says his theory is agnostic on such religious questions as whether life has meaning or purpose.“We know what it would mean to be good at absorbing energy from an external drive,” says England. “But I don’t have a model of what that external drive is, if that external drive is also random. Physics can’t tell us whether we’re here for a reason or not, or if the way things are is chosen and influenced or whether it’s all random.”Physics can’t make the opposite claim either, that the universe is arbitrary, England says. Interestingly, England himself is an Orthodox Jew.-A homecoming-England says his mother was born in Poland in 1947 to Holocaust survivors. His father was a non-observant Lutheran. Raised in a nominally Jewish household in New Hampshire, England didn’t take much interest in Judaism until he went to Oxford University for graduate school.“When I was an undergraduate at Harvard there were faculty members like Ruth Wisse and Alan Dershowitz who extracted a price from people who were too sloppy in the way they defamed the Jews and Israel on campus. But Oxford was a cold shower in comparison. A lot of people had angry and hostile things to say about Israel. It made me want to know how I felt.”England decided to visit Israel for himself. He describes the experience as a “powerfully compelling experience of coming home.”He studied Hebrew, Judaism and Torah, and soon found himself becoming more religiously observant. At the same time, he wasn’t willing to jettison what he knew to be true from science.“I wasn’t going to reject science as a way of understanding some things about the world that are true, but I also was going to take Jewish tradition very seriously.”-How contradictions make you smarter-England says it was this frame of mind that has ultimately made him a better scientist.“When you encounter a contradiction or something that seems really difficult and you’re forced to work very hard to resolve it, without simply getting to ignore or reject one side of the contradiction, it’s very productive.”According to England, we can use different languages to talk about the same things, and each language serves a different purpose.‘If we see the world as a world where Jews are going to act a certain way and keep mitzvot, that world should not be described first and foremost in terms of electrons and protons and DNA. It should be described as being about light and dark, land and sea, men and women, fish and birds and plants. Those are the basic categories on which everything else is built. You have to talk about the world in a certain way when calling a nation to a certain shared compact in their behavior.”On the other hand, “I definitely don’t want to be misunderstood to be saying my scientific ideas come from the Torah, that the Torah is somehow a trove of scientific information and should be mined as such. That would be a foolish way to read the Torah, and would make me a very bad scientist.”-Why we confuse scientific models for reality-Any scientific theory, says England, is just a model that helps you describe or predict a subset of observable reality. A lot of people become so impressed with the model they use it to explain everything. For instance, Darwinism doesn’t mean there is no such thing as love or altruism, and that our sole purpose in life is optimizing fitness.“I think I would liken it to someone who takes a black and white photograph of a rainbow and say there’s no such thing as color. Or they say, look at all that I have understood about this rainbow. I have its shape, there are parts of it that are darker and lighter, I can show you how it’s positioned with respect to the sun and clouds, but there’s something missing that from the fullness of our own experience is obvious.”England says he understands the appeal of totalizing theories.“It’s very tempting to want the world to be fully comprehensible. We have an aesthetic desire to see complete perfection as well as an existential fear of the unknown or the unpredictable.”In fact, England says this point is made brilliantly in Tanach (the Hebrew Bible).“When it says God said let there be light, the point is that the light by which we see the world comes from the way we talk about it. And we have choices to make about how to talk about the world. A second and related point is that when you look at the Tower of Babel, God doesn’t want us to only talk about the world one way.”“You start with a tower and one language, and at the end of the day it doesn’t stay that way and that’s because God doesn’t want it to be that way. From the standpoint of Tanach it is a sort of inevitability of social physics that when you start with one language you end up with many languages, and the reason is because the world is too complicated to capture with one. And there’s something missing from your account of it once you are limiting your description in that way.”There is a clear lesson in this Biblical story that’s applicable to physics, he says.“Realizing there are many languages for describing the world helps us do better science, by helping us keep our modeling assumptions clear. Living things are interesting in their own right, totally independent of physics, but if you want to you can also ask about the physical properties of living things, and whether there’s anything distinctive about them that originates in the type of physical laws we assume they obey. That physical perspective on the biological world has been the inspiration for the new research that we’re doing.”Science historian Larson says that England’s ideas are ambitious, but warns that we shouldn’t get ahead of ourselves.“Science operates in a reserved way,” he says. “We don’t throw out ideas we haven’t proven yet. Until something is published in a peer-reviewed journal, it’s not science. But personally I hope he does prove it. I would love to see this question answered.”
