A bomb blast (library photo)

Gaza school hit by blast

Up to 40 people have been killed in an Israeli strike at a United Nations-run school, it has been reported. » More

Deadly Attack On Gaza School As many as 40 Palestinians have been killed in an attack on a UN-run school, witnesses have said, as aid agencies warn Gaza is in the grip of a major humanitarian crisis.

Two Israeli tank shells reportedly exploded outside the school, spraying shrapnel on people who had sought shelter in the building.

A source inside the Israel Defence Forces said explosives had been planted inside the school which caused the civilian casualties. "After an initial investigation, not confirmed completely, the possibility arises that a mortar shell was fired from the school towards an Israeli army force," the source told Sky News. "The force fired back with one shell and it seems that the school was booby-trapped, thus causing a secondary explosion." Earlier, at least 12 members of the same extended family, including seven young children, were said to have been killed in an Israeli air attack. Gaza medics say the 11-day Israeli offensive on Hamas in the Gaza Strip has now killed at least 635 Palestinians - but this figure cannot be verified. Meanwhile, three Israeli soldiers have been killed by fire from one of their own tanks and two others died in separate incidents as forces press further south. Speaking from Jerusalem, Oxfam worker John Prideaux-Brune told Sky News: "All the information we are getting is clearly showing there is a real humanitarian crisis going on in Gaza right now. "We have people with no food, no water, no electricity, no heating in the middle of winter. "Numerous people have had to leave their homes because they have been destroyed or are too badly damaged to live in," he added, echoing earlier warnings given by other agencies. Mr Prideaux-Brune also spoke of the difficulty of getting medical aid to those in need after ambulances have become caught up during air strikes. British volunteer Eva Yeshewitz, who was in a Red Crescent vehicle that was hit, said: "Every day we risk this kind of thing - the medical staff, they're the ones who are paying with their lives." Israel has said it will not call an end to its offensive until it is assured that Hamas will not have further access to weapons. Middle East envoy Tony BlairIsraeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has defied international calls for a ceasefire. "The results of the operation must be... that Hamas must not only stop firing but must no longer be able to fire," Mr Olmert is said to have told French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who is in the region to try to broker a truce. But Hamas says it will not contemplate a ceasefire until there is a complete withdrawal of Israeli troops. As the bombardment continued overnight, five Palestinians were killed by tank fire in the central town of Deir al Balah, medics said. Israeli military officials claim to have captured 80 Hamas fighters and large explosions and heavy exchanges of fire hit the Shejaiya neighbourhood in the east as Israel pressed forward its campaign to halt rocket attacks. Flares and assault helicopters were seen in the skies above the blacked-out area, where Hamas said it had fired missiles at seven Israeli tanks. The Islamic Jihad movement said several of its members were killed in the fighting. Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, envoy for the Quartet group of powers, said a ceasefire was a priority. But outgoing US President George W Bush said any truce must include provisions that prevent Hamas firing rockets into Israel. President-elect Barack Obama expressed concern about the crisis, but stressed he would not intervene in "delicate negotiations" by the Bush administration. told Sky News that efforts were underway to meet that demand by closing the tunnels into Gaza. Reporting from near the Israel-Gaza border, Sky News' Dominic Waghorn said: "Israeli troops have now moved right in beyond Jabaliya refugee camp and into the outskirts of Gaza City. "They are now engaged in house-to-house combat with Hamas. "The Israeli police have moved us back from the border - but we still have a good view over Gaza City. "The logic of the move back seems to be to keep us - and the enemy - guessing over Israel's strategy."  Witnesses have reported that tanks firing cannons and machine guns and supported by helicopter gunships moved into the city of Khan Younis just before dawn. As the violence escalates,

Gaza onslaught sparks 'humanitarian crisis'

Israel's onslaught against Hamas militants has created a "full-blown humanitarian crisis" in the Gaza Strip, aid agencies have warned. Skip related content Many of the Gaza Strip's 1.5 million people lack food, water or power and hospitals are struggling to cope with the casualties of the conflict. Save the Children has called for aid to be let in to the stricken area and said that 50,000 children are already suffering from chronic malnutrition. More than 2,000 families were displaced prior to the launch of the ground offensive on Saturday with charities expecting the number to increase significantly as fighting escalates.

The International Committee of the Red Cross has urged Israel to allow speedier access for ambulances to evacuate the wounded from Gaza. Director of operations Pierre Kraehenbuehl said: "We are dealing with a full-blown major crisis in humanitarian terms. The situation of the people in Gaza is extreme and traumatic." He added: "We call on the parties, in particular on Israel, to do more to allow the Palestinian Red Crescent and other medical workers to carry out their work and save lives." Mr Kraehenbuehl warned that access to medical care in the Gaza Strip was worsening by the day with two hospitals about to run out of fuel for their generators. "Many people in Gaza don't get emergency medical care they need," he said. "Some are even dying because the ambulances can't reach them in time, which is frankly appalling." As the violence continued, Three people were killed when Israeli warplanes targeted a United Nations school in the Gaza Strip. Hundreds of terrified Palestinians were taking shelter in the building after fleeing fierce fighting between Israeli soldiers and Hamas fighters. The latest fatalities in the 11-day-old conflict come after Israel warned that fighting in Gaza could get worse before its mission against Hamas is complete. Palestinian witnesses said Israeli forces have pushed into Khan Younis in southern Gaza as the army widened the ground assault it launched four days ago against Hamas militants. At least 718 Palestinians, including 130 militants, have been killed since the offensive began. In the latest attacks, at least 35 people are reported to have died. The dead included ten killed by naval shells along the beach in the central Gaza Strip and 11 people, including five children, whose bodies were pulled from the rubble of a house hit by an airstrike. Nine Israelis, including three civilians hit in Palestinian rocket attacks, have died in the conflict. Politicians led by Prime Minister Gordon Brown have united to urge both sides to reach an immediate ceasefire. Mr Brown said it was vital that the international community, including the Arab League, worked together to find a workable solution to the problem. He said: "This is a very dangerous moment, I think everybody around the world is expressing grave concern. What we've got to do almost immediately is to work harder than we've done for an immediate ceasefire." US President George W Bush has insisted that any ceasefire to end the Gaza crisis must include provisions to prevent Hamas from continuing to use the coastal strip to fire rockets into Israel.

Young hardworking Scottish boy set up on false charges by a well known, well connected and powerful Scottish Gangster Drug Gang family with the help of Scottish Police and Scottish Prosecution 

A jury in a court in Edinburgh Scotland in the last week (November 2008) has heard evidence from the family of Adam Hendry junior, that their son has been set up on false charges with falsified evidence, by the Bain family, who are a well known Scottish Gangster Drug Gang Family, who's son James Bain is already in jail for one murder and seriously wounding James Henry, the accused's cousin and threatening to kill the accused's father Adam Henry Senior.
The background of this case was summarized by Adam Hendry's defense barrister and other witnesses, which shows a clear story of the Scottish Police-Prosecution and Court System being used by the Bain family who are a well connected and powerful Scottish Gangster Drug Gang family to set up young Adam Hendry on serious assault charges with false evidence, because the James Bain (Junior), who has children with the daughter of Adam Henry Senior and his wife Mary Hendry, is not being able to have anymore visits from his children while he is doing his time in jail for murder, threatening to murder and attempted murder.
The whole basis and motivation of these false and wrongful charges against Adam Hendry seem clearly to be the result of the children of James Bain Junior, and the daughter or Adam (Senior) and Mary Hendry, no longer wanting to visit their father in prison. There is evidence that the children become too stressed and have severe negative behavioral changes in their behavior after they were visiting their father James Bain ( Junior) in prison.
The accused, Adam Hendry ( Junior) has been a hard working Scottish boy, who had his own landscaping business and spent time in Australia where he felt he was making a better life for himself away from a negative childhood environment, who only came back from Australia to help his family.
Adam Hendry ( Junior) was concerned for his sister and her children and has been a strong positive influence on these children who see Adam Hendry as a positive role model, in complete contrast to their father, James Bain (Junior), who has a long prison sentence to serve for one murder and seriously wounding James Henry, the accused's cousin and threatening to kill the accused's father Adam Henry (Senior).
The trial ended today the 25th November, 2008 in the Edinburgh Courts and the jury have spent all afternoon deliberating, and obviously were having trouble reaching a verdict, and are continuing their deliberations tomorrow, Wednesday, 26th November, 2008.
In an unusual and rarely used court power in Scotland, the court refused to allow any members of the public to sit in and hear the trial while the evidence was being heard. The whole case is full and an unusual mixture if strange behavior by the police, the prosecution, the court and the prosecution witnesses.
There has been clear evidence that the accused Adam Hendry ( Junior), was no where near the place where the crimes were meant to have been committed on the day they were meant to have been committed, and it fact had been with his father  Adam Hendry ( senior) and a horse in the field all afternoon, and arrived back at their house at around 5.50pm, had dinner, spent time on Bebo and then took the two children out to Toys Are Us at about 7pm, and was back at their home at around 9pm
It was during this time that the alleged assaults were meant to have occurred and the well supported alibi of Adam Hendry (Junior) shows that he was no were near the place of the alleged crimes at the time they were meant to have been carried out.
There was evidence led by Adam Hendry and his wife Mary Hendry to confirm this, which was also supported by the game keeper who said he saw Adam Hendry Senior and Adam Hendry Junior in the field with the horse during the afternoon of the Wednesday the 16th of July, 2008.
The evidence presented clearly supports the claim by the accused and their defense team that James Bain (Senior) cut himself and conspired with his wife Kim Bain, and their daughter Caroline Bain to make up the story that the accused Adam Hendry ( Junior) attacked and assaulted them on the 19th July, 2008 under instructions from James Bain Junior, from prison, as a pay back, because his children no longer wanted to visit James Bain ( junior) in prison and blamed the Adam Hendry and his family for this.
There is evidence that James Bain ( Junior) has very powerful contacts in the criminal, police, prosecution and prison world, and even has his own mobile phone in prison, so he can continue to run his criminal net work and gang from prison.
It appears that the Bain Family have some deeply rooted criminal and evil intent to destroy Adam Hendry ( Junior) and his sister, the mother of the children of James Bain (Junior),  and the rest of the Hendy family, by setting up Adam Hendry and these wrongful and false charges, have him locked in prison, and then while he is in prison, use  the powerful gangs  the Bain family control in prison, to have Adam Hendry ( junior) murdered while in prison.
The even more sad and disturbing thing is that the Bain Family are using the Scottish Police-Prosecution-Prison System and Court System to carry out their criminal aims. If Adam Hendry is wrongly convicted by the jury on the 26th September, 2008, then the Bain Family will have succeeded is their criminal endeavors in producing false evidence to the court to have Adam Hendry ( junior) wrongly and unjustly convicted, for  crimes he clearly did not commit, as he simply was never there at the alleged scene of the so called crimes.
There was never any weapon ever produced by the prosecution, the alleged offences were reported four days after the alleged offences where meant to be committed, and there was independent evidence that Adam Hendry was never near the scene of the alleged crimes on the dates and times that they were meant to have taken place.
It is very surprising that these charges were ever taken to trial and that the accused Adam Hendry (Junior) was every arrested.
Adam Hendry (Junior) has spent four months in prison without bail, waiting for a trial on offences he clearly could not have and did not commit. Adam Hendry (Junior)  has lost a successful landscape business which has had to be closed because of his wrongful arrest. His life and his family's life has been all destroyed,  even though it looks as though the jury are likely to find him not guilty on the 26th November, 2008.
The whole case seriously damages the creditability of the Scottish Justice System, with those that have being involved in the case, would well know that it is wrong what has happened and should be corrected so justice is done.
One can only pray and hope the jury sees the wood from the trees and are not blinded by
the system and find Adam Hendry not guilty of all charges.
Update on the Adam Hendry ( Junior) Trial):
On 26th November the jury found Adam Hendry guilty of a the lesser charge of attaching the Bain family with his fists and his feet, but not with a knife, as the police, the prosecution and the prosecution witnesses had tried to convince the jury had happened. Anyone following this case would find it rather odd that the jury found in favor of the accused that he did not attack the Bain Family with a knife as alleged by the Bain Family under oath, thus showing that the jury believed the Bain Family were lying about that major and vital piece of evidence. So the question remains, why would the jury then believe the rest of the evidence of the Bain Family, who have been proven to be a family of unsavory character, who's son had gone into a hotel with a gun and murdered one person, seriously wounded another, James Hendy, a cousin of the accused, Adam Hendry (Junior) and is now serving along long sentence in prison.
The answer seems to lie in the allegations that are emerging that the jury was set up the Scottish Crown, so that there were plants in the jury who's job was to make sure the accused, Adam Hendy ( Junior) was found guilty, regardless of the evidence produced at trial. The INL News Group has been provided information from one of the female jury members who stated that on the afternoon of  25 th November, 2008, that the jury voting was in effect only 5 guilty and the rest, not guilty or not proven. In Scottish Law a jury member can vote a not proven verdict which has the same effect as a not guilty verdict. For an accused to be found guilty the jury have to come up with 8 out of 15 jury members as a guilty vote. If there is 8 our more out of the 15 jury members that vote not guilty or not proven then the overall verdict has to be not guilty.

Since the INL News Groups' first article appeared about the trial and Adam Hendry ( junior) on their www.inlnews.com web site, the www.NYTToday.com and hundreds of other web sites around the world, another jury member has anomalously contacted them saying they were a plant on the jury on behalf of the Scottish Prosecution to make sure Adam Hendry ( junior) was found guilty. It seems that even though the jury were meant to find Adam Hendry guilty of the more serious crime of using a knife as a weapon in the alleged assaults, honest members of the jury insisted as there was simply no evidence whatsoever that a weapon of any sort was allegedly used, so that there was no way even a dishonest jury member could push for a guilty verdict of assault using a knife. The other rather odd fact was that the only evidence even a dishonest jury could hang their hat on to find a guilty verdict, was a tiny speck of blood that appeared to possibly belong to the accused on a picture frame, allegedly found in the lounge room were the assault allegedly took place. There are a number of explanations as to how a tiny speck of blood of the accused could have been there on the picture frame without the alleged speck of blood being there as a result of the alleged assault on the 16th July, 2008. Also, in any event there was no blood found on the walls of the lounge room, it was only on the picture frame, which is a movable object, and well could have been placed in the room for the purpose of providing false evidence for the police and the prosecution, or on fact the police and/or the prosecution could have had a hand in masterminding this false evidence to become part of the evidence to be produced at the trial.
The original charges laid by the Scottish Detectives against Adam Hendry (junior)included attempted murder. This serious charge was eventually dropped and brought to a lesser charge of assault using a knife, then even a corrupt jury could only find Adam Hendry guilty in the end of assault using his fists and his feet.
The Scottish Government, the Scottish Detectives (CID), the Scottish Police and the Scottish Prosecution and the Scottish Court System would be facing a lot of public outcry and may be a serious damages claim to defend if Adam Hendy ( junior) was found not guilty of all charges, having been wrongly locked him up on false charges, that had no factual basis whatsoever since July, 2008 without bail which has destroyed his business and family life and his overall family with his father Adam Hendry ( Senior) becoming seriously ill as a result of all the stress and may have died, and may still die from all the stress on his son and family this all has caused.
There are other serious allegations emerging that corrupt Scottish detectives ( CID are in fact involved with protecting criminal gangs running the multi billion drug industry in Scotland, which the Bain family are heavily involved with and James Bain ( Junior) is still running from his mobile phone in his prison cell with the help of corrupt police and corrupt prison guards. It has also come to light that a prison guard, was also a jury member and appears to be one of the jury members planted inside the jury room by the Scottish Police and Prosecution. Looking at all this, it makes sense why the Scottish Police, the Scottish Prosecution and the Scottish Court System have gone out of their way to help the Bain Family set up Adam Hendry on these false charges, and make sure he is found guilty, so that eventually Adam Hendry ( junior), who has been a wonderful role model for his sister's children, will eventually be murdered in prison by the criminal network run and controlled by James Bain and the other Bain Family members, from James Bain's prison cell.

A seventy year old Australian Venture Capital Company
Chapmans Limited (ASX code-CHP)
which has been listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) since about 1970 announces purchase of 10% of
COMMUNITY FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP PTY LTD
trading as Smart Ventures
The Australian Stock Market reacted positively to the news by pushing Chapmans shares up by 60% over a two day heavy trading session

Smart Ventures are not the only company interested in Chapmans Limited. International News Limited based in the USA, is apparently looking at a take over bid for Chapmans to use to head their expansion into the Australian media market with a hard copy Australia wide weekend newspaper called the Ausralian Weekend News and online real estate and business sales web sites in Australian and New Zealand called           www.yahoorealestate.com.au and
                     
www.yahoorealestate.co.nz 
to take on   www.realestate.com.au

which is said in the industry to be worth a few billion dollars, because of the very profitable advertising revenue it earns each year from real estate and business for sale advertising. Both groups are keen to take over Chapmans for a number of reasons, which includes the fact that, as Chapmans has been listed on the Australian Stock Exchange since about 1970, it will be easy to have the company listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM), which is effectively the second board of the London Stock Exchange. This move will open up the opportunity and interest for European, United Kingdom and USA investors and large superanuation, insurance and mutual funds to invest in Chapmans Limited, which now has interests in a diverse range of industries listed in the Smart Ventures portfolio, and the interesting investments Chapmans have already made in mobile phone accessories, mining, real estate and an Irish based new roofing system called New-Lock , as well as the media.
Brett Goldworthy the CEO of Smart Ventures seems excited about what appears to be effectively a merger of two venture capital type companies.
Another USA based media company called the USA Weekly News Limited has just last week purchased 10% of the issued shares in Chapmans Limited, and is making noises of purchasing another 9%, which will bring their shareholding just under the 20% mark. It is understood negotiations are going on at present with some of the of the other large shareholders of Chapmans to purchase these extra 9% off market, so that the share price on the market will not increase too much in case they want to make a formal take over bid in the near future.

A bomb blast (library photo)

Gaza school hit by blast

Up to 40 people have been killed in an Israeli strike at a United Nations-run school, it has been reported. » More

Deadly Attack On Gaza School As many as 40 Palestinians have been killed in an attack on a UN-run school, witnesses have said, as aid agencies warn Gaza is in the grip of a major humanitarian crisis.

Two Israeli tank shells reportedly exploded outside the school, spraying shrapnel on people who had sought shelter in the building.

A source inside the Israel Defence Forces said explosives had been planted inside the school which caused the civilian casualties. "After an initial investigation, not confirmed completely, the possibility arises that a mortar shell was fired from the school towards an Israeli army force," the source told Sky News. "The force fired back with one shell and it seems that the school was booby-trapped, thus causing a secondary explosion." Earlier, at least 12 members of the same extended family, including seven young children, were said to have been killed in an Israeli air attack. Gaza medics say the 11-day Israeli offensive on Hamas in the Gaza Strip has now killed at least 635 Palestinians - but this figure cannot be verified. Meanwhile, three Israeli soldiers have been killed by fire from one of their own tanks and two others died in separate incidents as forces press further south. Speaking from Jerusalem, Oxfam worker John Prideaux-Brune told Sky News: "All the information we are getting is clearly showing there is a real humanitarian crisis going on in Gaza right now. "We have people with no food, no water, no electricity, no heating in the middle of winter. "Numerous people have had to leave their homes because they have been destroyed or are too badly damaged to live in," he added, echoing earlier warnings given by other agencies. Mr Prideaux-Brune also spoke of the difficulty of getting medical aid to those in need after ambulances have become caught up during air strikes. British volunteer Eva Yeshewitz, who was in a Red Crescent vehicle that was hit, said: "Every day we risk this kind of thing - the medical staff, they're the ones who are paying with their lives." Israel has said it will not call an end to its offensive until it is assured that Hamas will not have further access to weapons. Middle East envoy Tony BlairIsraeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has defied international calls for a ceasefire. "The results of the operation must be... that Hamas must not only stop firing but must no longer be able to fire," Mr Olmert is said to have told French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who is in the region to try to broker a truce. But Hamas says it will not contemplate a ceasefire until there is a complete withdrawal of Israeli troops. As the bombardment continued overnight, five Palestinians were killed by tank fire in the central town of Deir al Balah, medics said. Israeli military officials claim to have captured 80 Hamas fighters and large explosions and heavy exchanges of fire hit the Shejaiya neighbourhood in the east as Israel pressed forward its campaign to halt rocket attacks. Flares and assault helicopters were seen in the skies above the blacked-out area, where Hamas said it had fired missiles at seven Israeli tanks. The Islamic Jihad movement said several of its members were killed in the fighting. Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, envoy for the Quartet group of powers, said a ceasefire was a priority. But outgoing US President George W Bush said any truce must include provisions that prevent Hamas firing rockets into Israel. President-elect Barack Obama expressed concern about the crisis, but stressed he would not intervene in "delicate negotiations" by the Bush administration. told Sky News that efforts were underway to meet that demand by closing the tunnels into Gaza. Reporting from near the Israel-Gaza border, Sky News' Dominic Waghorn said: "Israeli troops have now moved right in beyond Jabaliya refugee camp and into the outskirts of Gaza City. "They are now engaged in house-to-house combat with Hamas. "The Israeli police have moved us back from the border - but we still have a good view over Gaza City. "The logic of the move back seems to be to keep us - and the enemy - guessing over Israel's strategy."  Witnesses have reported that tanks firing cannons and machine guns and supported by helicopter gunships moved into the city of Khan Younis just before dawn. As the violence escalates,

Gaza onslaught sparks 'humanitarian crisis'

Israel's onslaught against Hamas militants has created a "full-blown humanitarian crisis" in the Gaza Strip, aid agencies have warned. Skip related content Many of the Gaza Strip's 1.5 million people lack food, water or power and hospitals are struggling to cope with the casualties of the conflict. Save the Children has called for aid to be let in to the stricken area and said that 50,000 children are already suffering from chronic malnutrition. More than 2,000 families were displaced prior to the launch of the ground offensive on Saturday with charities expecting the number to increase significantly as fighting escalates.

The International Committee of the Red Cross has urged Israel to allow speedier access for ambulances to evacuate the wounded from Gaza. Director of operations Pierre Kraehenbuehl said: "We are dealing with a full-blown major crisis in humanitarian terms. The situation of the people in Gaza is extreme and traumatic." He added: "We call on the parties, in particular on Israel, to do more to allow the Palestinian Red Crescent and other medical workers to carry out their work and save lives." Mr Kraehenbuehl warned that access to medical care in the Gaza Strip was worsening by the day with two hospitals about to run out of fuel for their generators. "Many people in Gaza don't get emergency medical care they need," he said. "Some are even dying because the ambulances can't reach them in time, which is frankly appalling." As the violence continued, Three people were killed when Israeli warplanes targeted a United Nations school in the Gaza Strip. Hundreds of terrified Palestinians were taking shelter in the building after fleeing fierce fighting between Israeli soldiers and Hamas fighters. The latest fatalities in the 11-day-old conflict come after Israel warned that fighting in Gaza could get worse before its mission against Hamas is complete. Palestinian witnesses said Israeli forces have pushed into Khan Younis in southern Gaza as the army widened the ground assault it launched four days ago against Hamas militants. At least 718 Palestinians, including 130 militants, have been killed since the offensive began. In the latest attacks, at least 35 people are reported to have died. The dead included ten killed by naval shells along the beach in the central Gaza Strip and 11 people, including five children, whose bodies were pulled from the rubble of a house hit by an airstrike. Nine Israelis, including three civilians hit in Palestinian rocket attacks, have died in the conflict. Politicians led by Prime Minister Gordon Brown have united to urge both sides to reach an immediate ceasefire. Mr Brown said it was vital that the international community, including the Arab League, worked together to find a workable solution to the problem. He said: "This is a very dangerous moment, I think everybody around the world is expressing grave concern. What we've got to do almost immediately is to work harder than we've done for an immediate ceasefire." US President George W Bush has insisted that any ceasefire to end the Gaza crisis must include provisions to prevent Hamas from continuing to use the coastal strip to fire rockets into Israel.
