More Jewish sites vandalized in Ukraine | Jewish Telegraphic Agency
A Holocaust memorial and the grave of the brother of the late Lubavitcher rebbe were vandalized in Ukraine, amid a string of anti-Semitic attacks in the country.
The Holocaust Memorial in Sevastopol in the Crimean Peninsula was spray painted in red with a hammer and sickle and the letters USSR, and with what appeared to be other pro-Russian graffiti according to the Sevastopolskaya Gazeta.
The Sevastopol Jewish Welfare Center, Hesed Shahar, reported the vandalism to local police, according to Sevastopolskaya Gazeta.
The memorial was erected in Sevastopol in 2003 at the site where 4,200 Jews were murdered by the Nazis on July 12, 1942.
The monument has been vandalized by neo-Nazis in the past.
Also on Tuesday it was reported that, in Dnepropetrovsk, swastikas were sprayed on the tomb of Dov Ber Schneerson, brother of the late Lubavicher Rebbe, Rabbi Menahem Mendel Schneerson.
Chabad emissary Rabbi Moshe Weber, who works in Dnepropetrovsk, said that the graffiti looked recent, according to Chabad Online.
Since the revolution erupted in November, Ukraine, which has relatively low levels of anti-Semitic violence, has seen several serious attacks including a stabbing and the attempted torching of two synagogues, most recently last week in Nikolayev.
The Ukrainian government and Russian government officials, as well as their supporters in Ukraine, have exchanged allegations of anti-Semitism.

US, Russia share common threat of 'new extremism'
However, recently in the Middle East and beyond, there has been an increase of inter- and intra-religious strife, escalating into a sharply
violent phase. For example, conflicts are escalating between Christians
(including Orthodox) and Muslims in the Middle East and on a wider scope,
Shiites and Sunnis (behind which stand governments often pursuing not religious
but geopolitical interests) and followers of different Sunni groups,
which pose a direct threat not only to regions close to
Russian borders, but also to Russia's internal peace.

Of course, clashes between different denominations and sects have
always existed, but they have never been so acute. Russia believes that the
United States has opened a Pandora's box, turning the Middle East into a
site of feckless, violent “regime change” engineering. As Daniel Byman has
rightly noted in global politics publication Survival, “The
massive sectarian wave began to rise after the US-led invasion and occupation
of Iraq in 2003, and grew in size and ferocity as Syria descended into strife.”

Western Ignorance of the ‘Conditions of Omar’
A jihadi group occupying the Syrian town of Raqqa recently gave Christian minorities living there three choices: 1) convert to Islam; 2) remain Christian but pay tribute and accept third-class subject status; or 3) die by the sword.
According to the BBC, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria issued a directive:
[The directive cites] the Islamic concept of “dhimma,” [which] requires Christians in the city to pay tax of around half an ounce (14g) of pure gold in exchange for their safety. It says Christians must not make renovations to churches, display crosses or other religious symbols outside churches, ring church bells or pray in public. Christians must not carry arms, and must follow other rules imposed by ISIS (also known as ISIL) on their daily lives. The statement said the group had met Christian representatives and offered them three choices — they could convert to Islam, accept ISIS’ conditions, or reject their control and risk being killed. “If they reject, they are subject to being legitimate targets, and nothing will remain between them and ISIS other than the sword,” the statement said.

However, they can change themselves and can do that unassisted. The potential of genetic engineering is very high today, and the appearance of human cyborgs is a real perspective, Konstantin Frumkin says.

Sea of Azov turned bloody red... - The Watchers
(July 2012 report: a harbinger of things to come?)
Scientists and citizens are baffled as the waters of the Azov Sea turned bloody red close to Berdyansk village in mid-July, according to article published online by EnglishRussia. Villagers immediately suspected the great pollution from nearby factories. And older locals warned that it might be a sign of the coming events. Scientist however point that the most probable reason for bloody red color of the sea is algal blooms that are not dangerous to humans.
The researchers explained that the bright red color of the sea is result of high temperatures, which led to the blossoming of brown algae. The south-west wind "drove" algal blooms closer to shore. Further flowering could lead to fish deaths of mass proportions.
