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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Vice Prime Minister and Strategic Affairs Minister Moshe Ya'alon said on Thursday that all of Iran's nuclear facilities are vulnerable to a military strike. He said that the West had the ability to strike, but as long as Iran was not convinced that there's a determination to follow through with it, they would continue with their manipulations. The vice PM's comments counter reported remarks by U.S. defense officials quoted last week, according to which the Pentagon was not in possession of conventional arms strong enough to destroy all of Iran's nuclear facilities.

Plasan has been able to surge the production of up-armor kits for Humvees and for mine-resistant vehicles.

United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon kicked off a series of meetings Wednesday with Israeli and Palestinian leaders. Ban told President Shimon Peres that Israel should take steps to assist the Palestinians and illustrate that the Palestinian state is already being built on the ground. Ban is scheduled to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and is expected to make the same calls for Israeli gestures. Ban is one of several foreign leaders who have recently called on Netanyahu to make gestures toward the Palestinians in order to avoid a breakdown in the Amman talks.

The US Congress has threatened to cut military and financial aid to Egypt, citing harassment of non-governmental organizations. The recent tug of war between Cairo and Washington began when a number of US citizens working to promote democracy and human rights in Egypt were barred from leaving the country. Egyptian officials have defended the raid as part of legitimate investigation into the groups' work and funding. American aid to Egypt includes a yearly stipend of $ 1.3 billion to the army and an additional $300 million in economic aid.

Syrian government forces reasserted control of Damascus suburbs on Tuesday after beating back rebels at the capital's doorstep. Western and Arab diplomats piled more pressure on Syrian President Bashar Assad, pushing for a UN Security Council resolution which would call for him to step down to defuse to 10-month-old uprising against his family's dynastic rule. A draft United Nations resolution on Syria calls for President Assad to hand power to his deputy and insists there will be no use of foreign forces in the country.

After 18 years of tough negotiations, the Catholic Church agreed to waive its demand to receive sovereignty over the Cenacle (the location of the "Last Supper") on Jerusalem's Mount Zion. In return, Israel agreed to consider giving the Church access to the place and even consider a leasing option. It was also agreed that the Vatican would start paying a reduced property tax for its assets in Israel. Over the years, Israel suffered losses of tens of millions of shekels due to the Vatican's failure to pay property tax.

In a recent study, Israel ranks fourth compared to 30 Arab countries in its standard of living and gross domestic product per capita, and is preceded by only Qatar, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates.

The project has yet to receive final approval or secure funding.
