Jair Bolsonaro, the Brazilian president, has said he may accept the $22 million (£18 million) of aid offered by G7 countries to help combat forest fires in the Amazon, providing that French president Emmanuel Macron apologises for calling him a "liar". Mr Bolsonaro initially rejected the $22 million, showing concern that the offer of aid was a veiled attempt to undermine Brazil's sovereignty in the region. This sentiment is shared by farmers associations and regional governments, who fear that France is trying to sabotage Brazilian agribusiness. Mr Bolsonaro's chief of staff Onyx Lorenzoni was also dismissive of the aid, saying it would be better used to "reforest Europe". "Mr Macron can't even avoid a foreseeable fire in a church … what is he trying to teach our country?", Mr Lorenzoni said, referring to the blaze at the Notre Dame cathedral in April. G7 nations announced that $22 million would be made available to help combat the wave of fore

Montana Gov. Steve Bullock was told how he could qualify for the next presidential debate, but it didn't make much sense: Spend $60. "You spend $60 on Facebook right now to get a $1 donor," Bullock said last week while campaigning in Iowa , referring to the 130,000 donor threshold that is one of the requirements to reach the debate stage in Houston next month. Facing a Wednesday deadline, a handful of Democratic White House hopefuls are racing against time — and odds — to qualify, trying desperately to meet the donor targets as well as reaching 2% in four approved public opinion polls. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/321hXTc via Latest News

In 1929, Arab clerics and politicians provoked riots across Palestine by accusing Jews of plotting to take control of Jerusalem’s al-Aqsa Mosque. This month marks the 90th anniversary of those riots — but they are not a bygone. Palestinian Authority and Hamas leaders incite violence today using similar falsehoods and ideology.The 1929 riots destroyed the Jewish community in Hebron. They persuaded Labor Zionist leader David Ben-Gurion that socialist fraternity among Jewish and Arab workers and peasants would not ensure peace. They impelled Palestine’s Jews to bolster the Haganah, their underground self-defense group. And they vindicated Zionist warnings against relying on foreigners for security.To investigate the riots, the British government, which controlled Palestine at the time, appointed an inquiry board known as the Shaw Commission.The commission noted that Arab objections to Zionism were ideological, comprehensive, intense, and inflexible. In its report, it nonetheless devoted t

President Trump blamed the last U.S. president for Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea in 2014, praising President Vladimir Putin for outsmarting President Obama and saying he thought Russia should be welcomed back into the annual meeting of the leaders of the world’s largest economic powers. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/2U2xI9Q via Latest News

More than a thousand students rallied Tuesday in the capital of Pakistan-held Kashmir to denounce India's downgrading of the special status of the portion of the disputed region it controls. The demonstrators chanted "We want freedom" and denounced human rights violations in Indian-administrated Kashmir. Kashmir, which is split between two countries and claimed by both, has been the cause of two of wars between Pakistan and India since they won independence from British colonialists in 1947. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/2NzEouJ via Latest News

A Palestinian Harvard student claims that he has been denied entry into the US because his friends had posted anti-American statements on social media. Ismail Ajjawi, 17, who is due to begin his studies at the prestigious university next Tuesday, said he was detained when he arrived at Boston's Logan International Airport on Friday night. Mr Ajjawai told the Harvard Crimson, the student newspaper, that immigration officers subjected him to hours of questioning and demanded access to his phone and computer. Mr Ajjawai, who lives in Lebanon, said he was asked about his religious beliefs and practices before officers trawled through his technology devices. The teenager said that after five hours an officer called him into a room and “started screaming" at him. "She said that she found people posting political points of view that oppose the US on my friend[s] list,” he said.   Mr Ajjawi said he stressed to the officer that he had not made any political posts himself and that

Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro said Tuesday that he will only accept the G-7's offer of international aid to fight fires ravaging the Amazon rain forest if French president Emmanuel Macron first apologizes for insulting his handling of the crisis.“Before speaking or accepting anything from France, even if it comes from the best possible intentions, he must retract his words. Then we can talk,” Bolsonaro told reporters.Bolsonaro was referring to the $20 million in aid pledged during the G-7 summit on Monday in France. The offer of aid came after Macron criticized Bolsonaro last week for cutting environmental regulations despite assurances that he would prioritize the fight against global warming.The newly elected Brazilian president responded by accusing Macron of expressing a “colonialist mentality," and suggested that France and the other G-7 nations plan to use the aid to exercise leverage over Brazil and its Amazonian resources.“Look, does anyone help anyone . . . witho

The IHOP in Southhaven, Mississippi, was an unlikely place to settle a sex abuse claim against the Catholic Church. The Rev. James G. Gannon, the leader of a Wisconsin-based group of Franciscan Friars, arrived at the crowded pancake house with copies of a legal settlement for La Jarvis D. Love, who had arrived with his wife and three young children. As La Jarvis skimmed the four-page agreement, his thoughts flickered back more than two decades to the physical and sexual abuse he says he suffered at the hands of a Franciscan Friar at a Catholic grade school in Greenwood. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/2HsrAm6 via Latest News

A former top US central banker leapt into the political fray on Tuesday, calling on the Federal Reserve to consider reducing President Donald Trump's chances of being reelected next year. Bill Dudley, the influential former president of the New York Federal Reserve Bank, also said in a Bloomberg opinion column that the Fed should declare that it will not "enable" Trump's trade war by lowering interest rates. The stunning arguments flew in the face of current Fed officials' efforts to maintain political neutrality despite Trump's year-long pressure campaign to demand easier monetary policy. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/2Uah1JK via Latest News

A Spanish warship collected 15 rescued migrants from an Italian port on Tuesday, having sailed halfway across the Mediterranean to fetch the small group in a high-profile maneuver that sharply contrasted with Italy's refusal to accept them. Madrid dispatched the ship a week ago to pick up the migrants at the end of a prolonged standoff between Italian authorities and a Spanish-registered private rescue boat which had plucked more than 100 people, most of them Africans, from seas off Libya. France, Germany, Luxembourg and Portugal had agreed to take the rest of the migrants but only Spain, which traded angry words with Rome during the standoff, sent a ship. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/329Hb1W via Latest News

Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli Prime Minister, has told Hizbollah’s leader to “calm down” after he said his movement was preparing a response within days to Israeli strikes.  Mr Netanyahu warned Hassan Nasrallah, secretary general of the Lebanese Shia group, to "be careful" with their words and actions. "I want to say to him and the Lebanese state, which is hosting this organisation that aims to destroy us, (...) Be careful about your words, and even more cautious about your actions,” he said on Tuesday. “He knows very well that the state of Israel knows how to defend itself well, and to repay its enemies.” Tensions between the two sides are more fraught than usual after Israel was accused of carrying out a drone attack on a Hizbollah facility in Beirut on Sunday and of striking an armed Palestinian faction in eastern Lebanon - its first such hostile action since the 2006 war. Investigators of Lebanon's military intelligence inspect the site after an alleged attack carr

An Australian academic has been arrested in China for spying, Beijing said Tuesday, prompting Canberra to demand the country upholds "basic standards" of justice. Yang Jun, who also goes by his pen name Yang Hengjun, was detained in January shortly after making a rare return to China from the United States. Australian Foreign Minister Marise Payne said earlier on Tuesday that she was "very concerned" that Yang -- a former official turned author -- had been arrested on "suspicion of espionage". from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/2PewtWc via Latest News
