Bulletproof vest saves officer in shootout outside Bellagio in Las Vegas; robbery suspect critically wounded

A Las Vegas police officer wearing a bulletproof vest and a robbery suspect were both struck by gunfire Friday night outside the Bellagio Hotel and Casino on the packed Las Vegas Strip, according to reports.

The shooting occurred just after 9:45 p.m. when an armed male suspect approached the Bellagio casino's poker cage and demanded money. A witness told KVVU-TV that the robbery happened quietly without anyone noticing.

The suspect then fled and tried to carjack someone in a valet parking lot. It was not known how much money he left with. When police officers responded to the scene, the suspect fired on one of them, hitting him in the chest, the station reported.

Another officer opened fire and struck the suspect. The officer and alleged robber were both taken to a hospital. The officer was treated and released.

“The officer had his bulletproof vest on, which probably saved his life,” said Las Vegas police Capt. Nicole Splinter, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal. She later added that “it looks like the bullet hit the front of his chest and possibly went across.”

The suspect remained in critical condition, police said.

A look at the winners and losers in Israel’s election

After a campaign widely seen as a referendum on his rule, Benjamin Netanyahu is the winner of Israel's election as he heads toward a record-setting fifth term as prime minister.

The Likud party's apparent victory paves the way for Netanyahu to build a coalition with his ultra-Orthodox and religious-nationalist allies.

Here's a look at some other winners and losers in the election:

THE WINNERS:

THE ULTRA-ORTHODOX VICTORY

Ultra-Orthodox Jewish parties, the prime minister's key allies in the past three governments, gained a handful of seats. The Sephardi Orthodox party Shas, for example, rose to become the third largest party in parliament. Ultra-Orthodox parties commanded 13 seats in the previous parliament. With most ballots counted, the two ultra-Orthodox parties were projected to win a total of 16 combined seats.

Like the previous Netanyahu administration, ultra-religious parties will likely wield outsized influence despite comprising less than 20% of Israel's Jewish population.

THE RIGHT-WING GAMBLE

Netanyahu drew sharp condemnation at home and abroad for brokering an alliance of religious nationalists and ultranationalist extremists called the Union of Right-Wing Parties. Representatives of a religious ultranationalist faction inspired by the banned Kahanist movement, branded a terrorist organization by the U.S. for an agenda that includes forced expulsion of Palestinians, merged with a religious settler party.

Netanyahu's gambit paid off, and the Union scraped past the electoral threshold.

Their win may embolden Netanyahu to pursue a hard-line agenda that could see Israel entrench its control over the West Bank, and extinguish hopes for a future Palestinian state.

The parties have also signaled they'll stand by the prime minister if he is indicted on corruption charges, and support him in passing immunity laws to protect him from prosecution.

THE NEWCOMER

Former army chief Benny Gantz proclaimed victory to an exuberant crowd at Blue and White's election party in Tel Aviv, when exit polls had him in a dead heat with Netanyahu. He woke up Wednesday to news that, though his party matched the Likud's votes, the tentative election results gave Netanyahu's potential coalition of religious and nationalist parties a clear majority in parliament.

The Blue and White party later conceded defeat, but vowed to "embitter" Netanyahu and his allies from the opposition.

The party leaders said their "exceptional outcome" proved that a broad spectrum of Israelis sought "a true alternative" to Netanyahu's 10 consecutive years in office. Gantz said that his party managed in 70 days to match the power of a party that's been a dominant force in Israeli politics since the 1970s.

THE LOSERS:

THE LANGUISHING LEFT

Israel's liberals and socialist left wing bloc suffered a major defeat. The Labor Party, which founded Israel and dominated politics for its first 30 years, plummeted to a historic low of just six seats in the 120-member parliament.

Several factors, including disillusionment with party chairman Avi Gabbay, contributed to Labor's fall. But most significantly, the centrist Blue and White party supplanted Labor as the main viable alternative to long-ruling Likud, siphoning off support from the left.

The dovish Meretz party lost parliamentary seats, earning the minimum of four. The country's Arab parties, plagued by low Arab turnout and divided by infighting among faction leaders, dropped from 13 seats to just 10.

Far from its heyday in Israel's pioneering age, Israel's left now appears doomed, as Yohanan Plesner from Israel's Democracy Institute said, "to represent a mere niche."

THE FALLEN STARS

The New Right party, led by Education Minister Naftali Bennett and Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked, may not win the necessary 3.25% of the vote to qualify for the Knesset, Israel's parliament.

The pair of popular pro-settler ministers split from their religious-nationalist Jewish Home party and sought greater power by drawing secular voters. That maneuver decidedly backfired.

UP IN SMOKE

Ultranationalist libertarian Moshe Feiglin's Zehut party, touted as the Cinderella story of the election, also saw its parliamentary hopes evaporate as actual votes fell short of the minimum needed to enter parliament.

Feiglin attracted a flurry of attention on the campaign trial by appealing to young religious nationalist voters with a platform of marijuana legalization, free market economics and annexation of the Israeli-occupied West Bank — along with a slew of other contentious policies, such as rejecting American military aid and paying Arabs to emigrate if they refused to accept Jewish sovereignty.

Pre-election polls predicted Feiglin would be a possible kingmaker. But having failed to make the cut, former Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman and Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon, leery Netanyahu allies, are now poised to become coalition power brokers.

Police arrest man accused in machete deaths of wife, child

Law enforcement authorities have captured a man they say used a machete to kill his wife and daughter.

Miami Gardens Police Chief Delma Noel-Pratt said a fire rescue crew spotted 57-year-old Noel Chambers Tuesday night and called police, who took him into custody.

Police had searched for Chambers since Saturday when they found the bodies of 48-year-old Lorrice Harris and 10-year-old Shayla. Another daughter, 29-year-old Shanalee Chambers, was critically injured.

The Miami Herald reports that Harris' family spoke to the media on Monday to help police find Chambers. Daughter Ashley Anderson called her father a "monster."

Ernie Saunders said his sister had asked for a divorce before she was killed.

Chambers is charged with two counts of first-degree murder. A lawyer wasn't listed on jail records.

Trump on Rep. Omar: ‘Extremely Unpatriotic, Disrespectful’

President Donald Trump has kept up the pressure on Rep. Ihan Omar, D-Minn., for her anti-Israel positions and questioning who led the 9/11 terrorist attacks, calling the Muslim congresswoman "extremely unpatriotic and extremely disrespectful to our country."

"Look, she's been very disrespectful to this country," President Trump told ABC-5 in Minneapolis during a visit to Minnesota on Monday. "She's been very disrespectful, frankly, to Israel."

Forget about an apology from the president, he said, despite Rep. Omar's claims she has been receiving death threats for her comments about 9/11, which she adds were incited by the president's rebuke of her positions.

"She is somebody that doesn't really understand, I think, life, real life, what it's all about," President Trump continued. "It's unfortunate — she's got a way about her that's very, very bad, I think, for our country."

President Trump had tweeted out a video of Rep. Omar's comments about 9/11 and he told ABC-5 he has no regrets having done so.

"No, not at all," he said.

KHARTOUM (Reuters) – Sudan could face a counter coup if military rulers and the opposition don’t reach agreement on a transition of power, opposition leader Sadiq Al Mahdi told Reuters on Thursday.

Al Mahdi said he believed Sudan’s military council would hand over power to civilians if the current stalemate were broken. He also said he would consider running for president only in an election, not during the transition period.

ECB must rethink policy framework after failing to lift inflation: Rehn

FILE PHOTO: Finland's central bank governor Rehn in Helsinki

March 15, 2019

FRANKFURT (Reuters) – The European Central Bank needs to review how it conducts policy given its failure to lift inflation back to target despite years of extraordinary stimulus, Finnish central bank chief Olli Rehn said on Friday.

Economic fundamentals may have shifted in the post-crisis years, reducing the ECB’s ability to influence consumer prices and potentially damaging its credibility, said Rehn, who sits on the ECB’s rate-setting Governing Council.

With inflation well below the ECB’s target of almost 2 percent since 2013, the bank has provided unprecedented support via record low interest rates, 2.6 trillion euros worth of bond purchases and several rounds of ultra-cheap funding for banks. But this has nearly exhausted its policy arsenal, only for inflation to underperform its target year after year.

“The interdependence of economic activity and inflationary pressures seems to have weakened in recent years,” said Rehn, who is often mentioned by economists as a potential candidate to succeed ECB President Mario Draghi later this year.

“Should this phenomenon prove to be lasting, it would imply a weakening of the impact monetary policy exerts on inflation via aggregate demand,” he added.

Rehn noted that even as the ECB used unprecedented tools to raise inflation, the desired results did not materialize and expectations for price growth continued to sink, a worrisome phenomenon.

“One explanation for this is that… trust in central banks’ ability to influence the inflation rate may have eroded,” he added.

Adding to the case for a review, Rehn argued that interest rates may stay low for long, limiting the central bank’s ability to use interest rates as a policy tool and forcing it to rely on unconventional tools, which so far have failed to yield the desired effect.

“Naturally, this would not mean questioning the primary objective of price stability, but it would indeed entail a comprehensive review of the guiding principles, key assumptions and tools used for the implementation of monetary policy,” Rehn added.

While central banks around the world conduct periodic reviews of their policy framework, ECB chief economist Peter Praet recently said “now may not be the right time” for such a study.

With half of the ECB’s board and more than a third of its Governing Council due to be replaced this year, the ECB is undergoing its biggest change in years, with potential implications for policy.

U.S.-backed force says it has taken positions in Islamic State Syria camp

March 18, 2019

DEIR AL-ZOR PROVINCE, Syria (Reuters) – U.S.-backed fighters have taken positions in Islamic State’s last enclave in eastern Syria, they said late on Sunday, after pounding the tiny patch of land by the banks of the Euphrates.

“Several positions captured and an ammunition storage has been blown up,” said Mustafa Bali, a spokesman for the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) militia, on Twitter.

The enclave resembles an encampment, filled with stationary vehicles and rough shelters with blankets or tarpaulins that could be seen flapping in the wind on Sunday during a lull in fighting as people walked among them.

Backed by air power and special forces from a U.S.-led coalition, the SDF has pushed Islamic State from almost the entire northeastern corner of Syria, defeating it in Raqqa in 2017 and driving it to its last enclave at Baghouz last year.

However, while its defeat at Baghouz will end its control of populated land in the third of Syria and Iraq that it captured in 2014, the group will remain a threat, regional and Western officials say.

The SDF has waged a staggered assault on the enclave, pausing for long periods over recent weeks to allow surrendering fighters, their families and other civilians to pour out.

Since Jan. 9, more than 60,000 people have left the enclave, about half of them surrendering Islamic State supporters including some 5,000 fighters, the SDF said on Sunday.

People leaving the area have spoken of harsh conditions inside, under coalition bombardment and with supplies of food so scarce some resorted to eating grass.

Last month, the SDF said it had found a mass grave in an area it captured.

Still, many of those who left Baghouz have vowed their allegiance to the jihadist group, which last week put out a propaganda film from inside the enclave calling on its supporters to keep faith.

Suicide attacks on Friday targeted families of Islamic State fighters attempting to leave the enclave and surrender, killing six people, the SDF said.

Late on Sunday, the Kurdish Ronahi TV station aired footage showing a renewed assault on the enclave, with fires seen to be raging inside and tracer fire and rockets zooming into the tiny area.

The SDF and the coalition say the Islamic State fighters inside Baghouz are among the group’s most hardened foreign fighters, though Western countries believe its leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, has left the area.

Senior White House adviser Jared Kushner said Tuesday that a detailed plan for a merit-based immigration system will be presented to President Trump, giving priority to skilled immigrants rather than those with family ties to the U.S.

“I do believe that the president’s position on immigration has been maybe defined by his opponents by what he’s against as opposed to what he’s for,” Kushner said at the Time 100 Summit in New York City. “What I’ve done is I’ve tried to put together a very detailed proposal for him.”

KUSHNER: RUSSIA INVESTIGATION HAD ‘HARSHER IMPACT’ ON US THAN ELECTION MEDDLING

Kushner announced that the new immigration proposal, which Trump will receive this week or next, will resemble the point-based systems in Canada, Australia and New Zealand, and will unify people by ensuring strong wages and secure borders while protecting humanitarian values.

“We want to protect our country’s humanitarian values. We want to make sure we’re reunifying families, and we want to do this in a way that allows our country to be competitive long term,” he said. “And my hope is we can really do something that unifies people around what we’re for on immigration.”

Kushner denied in the same talk that he has clashed with White House staffer Stephen Miller, who’s seen as tougher on immigration than others, adding that the plan was concocted with the help of Miller and Kevin Hassett, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers.

“And I say that If that if I can get Stephen Miller and Kevin Hassett to agree on an immigration plan, then Middle East peace will be easy by comparison,” Kushner joked, referring to the Israel-Palestine peace plan he’s working on.

“And I say that If that if I can get Stephen Miller and Kevin Hassett to agree on an immigration plan, then Middle East peace will be easy by comparison.”

After the plan gets presented to Trump, it will likely undergo some changes and then he will decide when to proceed with it, Kushner said.

“It’s very, very complicated, but it’s a very interesting issue, and if we can solve it, I do think it’s a critical component for America’s long-term competitive advantage,” he added.

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro on Thursday said his government must make men aware of the dangers of poor hygiene after expressing dismay over the 1,000 penis amputations that apparently occur in his country each year.

“In Brazil, we have 1,000 penis amputations a year due to a lack of water and soap,” he said while speaking to reporters in Brasilia after visiting the Education Ministry. “We have to find a way to get out of the bottom of this hole.”

The far-right leader called the figure “ridiculous and sad,” Reuters reported. A spokeswoman for the Brazilian urology society told the news agency the number is based on its official data for penis amputations.

The amputations were conducted out of necessity over untreated infections, along with complications from HIV and various cancers, she said.

A top Russian diplomat says Russia is willing to negotiate a new nuclear weapons treaty with the United States and China.

Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov told reporters on Friday Moscow is closely following reports in the United States that the U.S. would like to reach a nuclear weapons deal with both Russia and China, and is “willing” to negotiate. The story was reported by CNN earlier Friday.

Ryabkov also said that Russia “would like to convince” the U.S. to adopt a joint statement that would condemn any use of nuclear weapons.

Ryabkov’s comments come just months after the U.S. withdrew from the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, a cornerstone of the post-Cold War security, and Russia followed suit. Each claims breaches by the other.

Government dysfunction and an intelligence failure that preceded the Easter Sunday bombings in Sri Lanka are traced to simmering divisions between the president and prime minister after a weekslong political crisis that crippled the country last year.

The government has admitted to a “lapse of intelligence” after officials failed to act upon near-specific information received from foreign agencies. Suicide bombers exploded themselves last Sunday in three churches and three luxury hotels, killing 253 people and wounding 400 more. Authorities said eight Muslim militants blew themselves up at their targets while the wife of one of the attackers blasted herself on being rounded up by police.

The carnage has brought forth arguments that worshippers and holidaymakers fell victim to the rivalry and a lack of communication between the country’s two leaders — President Maithripala Sirisena and Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe.

The Cabinet led by Wickremesinghe says neither he nor his ministers were informed of the intelligence received by the defense authorities. Sirisena is the head of state, defense minister, minister in charge of the police and head of the armed forces. He also chairs the National Security Council, which includes the heads of security agencies and departments. Traditionally the prime minister also plays an important role on the council.

According to Health Minister Rajitha Senaratne, Sirisena has not included Wickremesinghe in national security affairs since a dispute between them came into the open in October last year. This is an unusual departure from the protocol, he said.

Senaratne said that Sirisena was overseas when the attacks took place and even after that, the National Security Council refused to meet with Wickremesinghe as he tried to give them instructions.

Sirisena has also said that he was not informed of the intelligence received and vowed to overhaul the leadership of the defense forces.

The top bureaucrat at the Defense Ministry, Hemasiri Fernando, has resigned at Sirisena’s insistence.

“It is a major factor,” said Jehan Perera, the head of local activist group National Peace Council, referring to the alleged lack of coordination between the leaders contributing to the failure to prevent the attacks.

“The primary responsibility has to be taken by the president, he did not give the information and he did not act,” Perera said. “He had the Ministry of Defense, took the police from the prime minister, chaired the National Security Council meetings and did nothing,” Perera said.

Kusal Perera, a journalist and political commentator, says security and intelligence officials should have acted on the information whether or not they received orders from politicians.

“If they (Wickremesinghe and his party) were not invited to the National Security Council, why did not they say in Parliament that they were not responsible for the security of the country any longer,” said Perera, who is not related to Jehan Perera.

“Saying that now is taking political advantage, not taking responsibility,” he said.

Sirisena and Wickremesinghe belong to different political parties but came together for Sirisena’s presidential campaign in 2015. Their relationships broke down and their differences exploded last year when Sirisena suddenly sacked Wickremesinghe as prime minister and appointed in his place former strongman Mahinda Rajapaksa, whom he defeated in the presidential election. The crisis crippled the country for more than seven weeks to the point of not being able to pass this year’s national budget on time.

A court decision compelled Sirisena to reappoint Wickremesinghe, but the two leaders have been rivals within the same government.

Rajapaksa, who is the minority leader in Parliament, blames the government for weakening intelligence and dropping its guard, which he had maintained to defeat the separatist Tamil Tiger rebels 10 years ago to end the 26-year-old civil war. He also criticized the government for the detention of intelligence officers accused of extrajudicial killings and abductions during the closing days of the war, which he said crippled the security apparatus before the bombings. According to conservative U.N estimates, some 100,000 people were killed in Sri Lanka’s conflict.

Sirisena summoned an all-party conference Thursday to which Wickremesinghe was also invited. At the conference, Sirisena stressed “setting aside all the political beliefs and difference (so that) everybody should collectively commit towards building a peaceful environment within the country,” a statement from his office said.

“It is not a secret that the disagreements between me and the government aggravated over the past two years,” Sirisena told the country’s media executives Friday. “One of the reasons for that is weakening of military intelligence and arresting military officials unnecessarily and my speaking up against it within and outside the government.”

Jehan Perera said that the security threat could prove politically advantageous to Rajapaksa and his family, with a presidential election scheduled at the end of this year. Gotabhaya Rajapaksa, a younger brother of Mahinda, was the powerful defense secretary during his brother’s reign and has expressed his interest to join the contest.

“People are saying we want a stronger leader and they are talking about Gotabhaya. It (the blasts) has worked to their benefit,” Perera said.

Cyprus police are intensifying a search for the remains of more victims at locations where an army officer, who authorities say admitted to killing five women and two girls, allegedly had dumped their bodies.

Police said Friday’s search will concentrate on a military firing range, a reservoir and a man-made lake near an abandoned mine approximately 32 kilometers (20 miles) west of the capital Nicosia.

On Thursday, the 35-year-old suspect told investigators that he had killed four more people than he had previously admitted to. All the suspect’s alleged victims are foreign nationals.

Police have already found the bodies of a 38-year-old Filipino woman and two as yet unidentified women.

Search crews are now looking for the daughter of the 38-year-old, a Romanian mother and daughter and another Filipino woman.
