CMN – [Editor’s Note: The US continues to attempt to forge a treaty between the Palestinians and Israel in an effort to defuse potential Palestinian participation in the inevitable clash with Iran – and Syria. These conflicts are “inevitable” because the Scriptures predict the destruction of Damascus and Iran (Persia in the Gog-Magog accounts). It’s interesting to note that Egypt is a participant in the talks, yet Egypt is conspicuously absent from the assembly of nations documented in Ezekiel’s famous prophecy.

The 22-member Arab League has given Obama until the second week of November to broker a compromise that will enable the peace talks to resume. Arab League foreign ministers are to meet at that time to discuss the state of negotiations and possible alternatives if the standoff continues.

Under proposed revisions to the police department’s handgun, rifle and shotgun permit procedures, the NYPD can reject gun license applicants for a number of reasons, including: If they have been arrested or convicted of almost any “violation,” in any state; having a “poor driving history”; having been fired for “circumstances that demonstrate lack of good judgment”; having “failed to pay legally required debts”; being deemed to lack “good moral character”; or if any other information demonstrates “other good cause for the denial of the permit.” …
