Emirati Hotel Managers Accuse Israelis Of Stealing ‘All They Can Carry’ From Dubai Hotels



Thousands of Israeli tourists have descended on Dubai in the month since commercial flights started between Israel and the UAE. Many were trying to escape the strict lockdown rules in Israel, others were genuinely interested in discovered a new and hitherto unknown culture. Unfortunately there were some tourists intent on stealing items from their hotel rooms, leading to complaints by Emirati hotel managers according to a Ynet report.

The report quoted the owner of the hotel overlooking the world’s tallest structure in Dubai who recounted in detail thefts made by some of the Israeli tourists who resided in his hotel. “We host hundreds of tourists from all countries of the world, some of them create problems, but we have not seen items stolen before”, the manager said.

He added that after checking out from the hotel it was found that their suitcases contained kettles, coffee and tea bags, hangers, towels, espresso machines and even light bulbs.

Consequently, a well-known anti-Israel Qatari presenter created a video depicting the thefts, claiming that a number of Emirati hotel owners had already contacted him detailing the thefts they managed to catch.

In the video, Abd Al-Aziz Khazraj Al-Ansari warns Emiratis saying: “They should know that normalization with Israel means having to give up room objects for now, and maybe land later on”. The video soon went viral on social media as people expressed their shock over the news.

The report goes on to describe different instances in which hotel managers noticed missing objects in rooms upon check out, saying their requests to examine the luggage of the Israeli guests were often met with shouting before they returned the objects and apologized.

“I have been visiting the UAE for many years and doing business there,” stated an Israeli businessman. “Last month I arrived at the hotel I was staying in and was terrified when I saw in the hotel lobby, Israelis are being searched for stolen items from the rooms.”

France Gives $10M To Palestinian Group That Promotes Israel Boycott

 


The French government has allocated about $10 million to a Palestinian organization that is a leading promoter of the boycott Israel movement.

Promoting that boycott has been found illegal in France in several high-profile cases.

The French Development Agency, or AFD, which focuses on “on climate, biodiversity, peace, education, urban development, health and governance,” last year gave an 8 million Euro grant to the NGO Development Center, or NDC, a Palestinian group that says it promotes good government practices in the West Bank. It was behind the 2008 “Palestinian NGO Code of Conduct,” a document includes a rejection of “any normalization activities with the occupier [Israel], neither at the political-security nor the cultural or developmental levels.”

NGO Monitor, an Israeli group that investigates the activities of non-governmental organizations and foreign government in the framework of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, in a statement last week called on the French government to “revise its grant in line with France’s clear rejection of BDS.”

In France, dozens of promoters of a boycott against Israel — including through the Boycott, Sanctions and Divestment Movement, or BDS — have been convicted of inciting hate or discrimination based on the Lellouche law, passed in 2003, which extends anti-racism laws to the targeting of specific nations for discriminatory treatment.

AFD Spokeswoman Magali Mevellec said that the funding “conforms to French law,” but offered no further commentary in a response to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency’s query on the issue.

France “supports strengthening local capabilities that improve the lives of populations” in what France considers Palestinian territories, Mevellec said.

“The sole purpose of France and AFD is improving the welfare of [those] populations,” she said.

BREAKING: Facebook shuts down fundraising page for both Republican Senate runoff campaigns in Georgia

 Update: Daily Caller reports that a Facebook spokesperson claims the Facebook account was taken down as a result of an automated error and has since been restored.


Facebook has shut down the advertisement account for the Georgia Battleground Fund, a joint fundraising committee fueling the National Republican Senatorial Committee and the campaigns of GOP incumbents Sens. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler—days before the Jan. 5 run-off elections in Georgia.

The Facebook campaign was disabled for supposedly violating the platform's Unacceptable Business Practices Policy. "We don't promote products, services, schemes or offers using deceptive or misleading practices, including those meant to scam people out of money or personal information," a warning on the account's dashboard read.

"Big Tech is at it again," the NRSC tweeted Friday, urging follows to go to the fund's webpage and help the Republican Party fight back. "This is unacceptable with only 4 days to Election Day."

"You literally just overrode the veto on 230 and you’re going to tweet this?" One America News Network's Jack Posobiec commented, referring to the rare New Year's Day 81-to-13 vote by the Senate to overturn President Donald Trump's veto.

Harvard professor says an alien visited in 2017 — and more are coming

 

Professor Avi Loeb and a rendering of 'Oumuamua.

Is there a Chabad House out there? 


When the first sign of intelligent life first visits us from space, it won’t be a giant saucer hovering over New York. More likely, it will be an alien civilization’s trash. 

Avi Loeb, the chair of Harvard’s Department of Astronomy, believes he’s already found some of that garbage. 

In his upcoming book, “Extraterrestrial: The First Sign of Intelligent Life Beyond Earth” (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt), out Jan. 26, the professor lays out a compelling case for why an object that recently wandered into our solar system was not just another rock but actually a piece of alien technology. 

The object in question traveled toward our solar system from the direction of Vega, a nearby star 25 light-years away, and intercepted our solar system’s orbital plane on Sept. 6, 2017. 

On Sept. 9, its trajectory brought it closest to the sun. At the end of September, it blasted at about 58,900 miles per hour past Venus’ orbital distance, and then, on Oct. 7, it shot past Earth’s before “moving swiftly toward the constellation Pegasus and the blackness beyond,” Loeb writes in the book. 

The object was first spotted by an observatory in Hawaii containing the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS) — the highest definition telescope on earth. 

The space object was dubbed ‘Oumuamua (pronounced “oh moo ah moo ah”), which is Hawaiian for — roughly — “scout.” 

As space travelers go, it was relatively small at just about 100 yards long, but it was a big deal in the scientific community.

With apologies to Mark Twain, reports about the death of Trumpism are premature. At least for a few days more, Donald Trump has license to keep upsetting apple carts in Washington.

Just when it seemed the president was roadkill and about to be abandoned by his own party, growing numbers of GOP members of Congress are signing on to a last-ditch effort to challenge the election results. Because success in any state would require a majority of both houses to vote no, the objectors are virtually certain to fail. 

Yet the swelling ranks of supporters in both chambers signals that it’s still Trump’s party and that enough of his 74.2 million voters are sticking with him that the pols have concluded it’s not politically healthy to go against him. 

Most important, the challengers have more than enough clout to force debates on each state they dispute, and to require every member of Congress to vote yes or no on whether to accept the results as reported.

US Official: ‘Growing body of evidence’ shows COVID-19 leaked from Chinese lab

 


U.S. National Security Adviser Matthew Pottinger is doubling down on the theory that COVID-19 leaked from a Chinese government-run lab in Wuhan. 

Pottinger, a staunch critic of Beijing, allegedly made the claim in a recent Zoom meeting with British officials.

“There is a growing body of evidence that the lab is likely the most credible source of the virus,” Pottinger reportedly said, according to the Daily Mail. 

The Trump appointee pushed the theory as the European Union made a new investment deal with China last week over protests from Pottinger and hesitance from the incoming Biden administration.

Pottinger, one of the first U.S. officials to raise alarms inside White House walls about the origins of the virus back in January 2020, has reportedly suspected since the early days of the outbreak that the coronavirus originated in a Chinese lab.

He ordered U.S. intelligence agencies to search for evidence that it had, the New York Times reported in April. 

A Chinese virologist who said she did some of the earliest research on COVID-19 has publicly claimed COVID-19 was man-made, and that the Chinese government covered up its dangers. Western medical experts have discredited the theory.

The World Health Organization has been investigating the source of the virus since the first case was made public in January 2020. Patient Zero has not been found. 

Pottinger suggested in the recent call with British officials that the WHO probe is a ruse.

“MPs around the world have a moral role to play in exposing the WHO investigation as a Potemkin exercise,” Pottinger told the parliamentarians, referring to fake villages created in Crimea in the 18th Century to convince the visiting Russian Empress Catherine the Great that the region was in good health.

“Even establishment figures in Beijing have openly dismissed the wet market story,” Pottinger allegedly said, referring to another theory that the virus was transmitted from animals to humans inside a wildlife market in Wuhan where the first cluster of cases emerged.
