Vice PM: Assad fall could weaken Mideast 'axis of evil'

Vice Prime Minister and Strategic Affairs Minister Moshe Ya'alon has
said that Israel will not interfere in the political crisis in Syria.
Ya'alon's comments came as Russia and China vetoed a Western-Arab UN
Security Council resolution backing an Arab League call for Assad to
step aside. The other 13 council members voted in favor of the
resolution, which would have said that the council "fully supports"
the Arab League plan. Ya'alon also referred to claims that Israel was
sustaining Assad's rule in wake of political turmoil in Syria, saying
that it was factually untrue because Israel never took a stand saying
it was interested in the survival of Assad's regime. The vice prime
minister spoke of the aftermath of Assad's possible ouster, saying
that there could be various outcomes in such a situation, some of
which could be positive as far as Israel is concerned, like a fissure
in the Tehran-Damascus-Beirut-Hamas axis of evil. When asked if he
felt Assad would be forced to step down, the vice PM said that it was
still unclear but that Assad was losing his legitimacy and it was a
matter of both time and of lives lost.

Iran trying to hit Israeli targets
The head of the Shin Bet security service, Yoram Cohen, said that Iran
is trying to strike Israeli targets around the world in a bid to stop
the assassinations of its nuclear scientists. Cohen said that it did
not matter whether or not Israel in fact took out the nuclear
scientists, but that a serious country like Iran could not let this go
on. They want to deter Israel and extract a price so that decision
makers in Israel think twice before they order an attack on an Iranian
scientist. He added that Iran was working very hard abroad through the
Iranian Revolutionary Guards to hit Israeli targets.

US warn tourists against 'immodest attire'
The US State Department is concerned over recent violence exhibited by
extremists in Israel's haredi community and has published a travel
recommendation for tourists not to walk around dressed immodestly in
haredi neighborhoods. The travel recommendations calls on American
tourists to dress appropriately when visiting religious sites in the
Old City and in haredi neighborhoods and to avoid driving through
those neighborhoods during the Sabbath. The recommendation follows
statements made by US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton who, speaking
at the Saban Conference two months ago, expressed her shock that some
busses in Jerusalem allocated separate seating areas for women.

Blast hits pipeline to Israel
On Sunday, an explosion hit a gas pipeline running from Egypt to
Israel. The pipeline, which also supplies gas to Jordan, has come
under attack at least 12 times since Mubarak was toppled in 2011. The
latest blast took place west of the Mediterranean coastal town of
el-Arish. Egypt's 20-year gas deal with Israel, signed in the Mubarak
era, is unpopular with some Egyptians, with critics accusing Israel of
not paying enough for the gas. Previous explosions have sometimes led
to week-long shutdowns along the pipeline. Egypt said in November it
would tighten security measures along the pipeline by installing alarm
devices and recruiting security patrols from Bedouin tribesmen in the
area.

Beitar game ends in embarrasment
Pride was a theme underlined by Beitar Jerusalem's coach, Yuval Naim,
before last night's encounter with Bnei Sakhnin at Teddy Stadium. Naim
told his players that the fans would hate losing against Sakhnin,
without spelling out the obvious reason. In retrospect, his words
probably demoralized his team: Sakhnin enjoyed their evening in
Jerusalem, taking the lead in the first half through a Ahmed Kasoum
goal, and adding two more in the second half. Beitar's fans reacted
with racist chants - before someone swiftly played music on the
stadium's PA system to drown out the embarrassment that already caused
Beitar to be docked two points this season. After the game, Beitar's
fans called for Naim to resign, and hurled stones at the Sakhnin fans'
bus. Police arrested 12 people - eight Sakhnin fans and four Beitar
fans - after skirmishes erupted.
