The EU is
reaching out to the governments in Muslim nations in an effort to join forces
in the battle against terrorism. The new push comes in light of the deadly
terrorist attacks in Paris and a foiled plot in Belgium.
Deutsche Welle, 19 Jan 2015
Following
Monday's meeting of European Union foreign ministers in Brussels, the bloc's
foreign policy coordinator, Federica Mogherini (pictured above, right), said
the EU planned to move quickly to implement measures to increase cooperation
with countries in the Arab world, as well as Turkey.
"We
are looking at specific projects to launch in the coming weeks with some
specific countries to increase the level of cooperation on counter-terrorism,
and I would name Turkey, Egypt, Yemen, Algeria and the Gulf countries,"
Mogherini told a press conference.
Following a
meeting with visiting Arab League Secretary General Nabil al-Arabi (above,

"security attachés" to the blocs delegations in countries in the
Muslim world to work to develop anti-terror strategies.
For his
part, Arabi expressed a willingness to cooperate to combat terrorism, although
he did say there may be reservations from some governments, in part due to
their frustration over EU criticism of the state of human rights in their
countries.
Sources of
funding targeted
Another
major thrust of the new EU initiative is to take steps to cut off the terrorist
networks' sources of funding. She said the EU would soon meet with experts on
this aspect of counter-terrorism from several countries, including the United
States, Australia, Canada and Switzerland.
"This
is going to happen in Brussels in the coming days," said Mogherini, who
appeared satisfied with the outcome of Monday's discussions.
"Probably
for the first time, there was a real deep awareness of the need to work
together," she said.
The
ministers were meeting just days after terrorist attacks on satirical magazine
Charlie Hebdo and a kosher supermarket in Paris killed 17 people. Just last
week, Belgian police launched a series of raids that they said prevented a
major terrorist attack there. Both countries now have soldiers deployed on the streets in order to enhance security.
No easing
of sanctions on Russia
The other
major item on the ministers' agenda was the crisis in eastern Ukraine, where
pro-Russia separatists and government forces fought pitched battles around Donetsk airport on Monday. The EU has imposed two rounds of economic sanctions
on Russia since it annexed Ukraine's Crimean peninsula last March. The second
round was over Western allegations that Russia is actively supporting the
rebels and the EU foreign ministers were in no mood to relax the measures.
"In
light of the current events in eastern Ukraine, no one had the idea of
loosening the sanctions," German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier
told reporters following the talks.
Mogherini
said the bloc's relations with Russia could only improve when the ceasefire
accords for eastern Ukraine agreed in Minsk back in September were implemented.
"The
latest developments on the ground are definitely not encouraging - rather the
contrary," she added.

“ .. Do Not Despair
There's too much information to give you in one channelling, in one sitting, so I refer to past messages for you to better understand and reference the information in order to get the bigger picture. So I wish to remind you of something I also told you in a recent channelling called Do Not Despair. You're winning! It's because you're winning that the dark consciousness on this planet is feeling it, and the humanity that represents darkness is pulling out everything it has to survive.
It Has Always Been There
Let's look at it, because it's all over the news. Are you shocked at the sudden existence of the organization that will remain unnamed [for this channelling]? Where did it come from? How could it be so organized? How could it be so well funded? This organization could have its own country soon! They might as well name it, “The Old Energy Dark Country”, for that's what it will represent.
The barbaric past of humanity comes forward to show its face. It has always been there, hiding under the rocks and between the cracks of civilized humanity. It couldn't show itself until now, but now it has to. It's ugly and it's not for the faint at heart, is it, dear ones? Seeing evil personified in Human action is abhorrent. It is so ugly and so dark that you cannot look upon it with a gentle heart. God is not a part of it and this is obvious.
You're winning! Light is winning! The uprising of dark consciousness would not have shown itself with this strength, or this quickly, if this were not so. This is exactly what I told you to look for, and it is proof that those representing this dark consciousness are in trouble. Dear ones, dark consciousness has always had a tried-and-true system. It lurks in the shadows and influences all the power places of the planet - government, commerce, finance. Suddenly, it can't hide there as well anymore and it's out in the open.
Where is the funding coming from? It is coming from a storehouse that has always been there, dear ones. It uses income that has been generated from low consciousness acts, collected for a very long time. Funding didn't just appear. It has been stored, waiting to be used in order to spread fear and darkness to save what they believe is their way.
Who Will Win?
Dear ones, they haven't got a chance! But it looks like they do, doesn't it? Everything that they are doing is calculated to scare you into submission. Are they winning? Now, that's a question I want you to take from here and examine every day.
Fear is black. If you're in fear, there is no light. You can be the grandest Lightworker, or even be the channeller, but if you're in fear, it doesn't matter how many years you've done light work, or how much light you've accumulated personally. It all goes away with fear, and then they've won the battle for your mind. Do you understand this?
The Strength of the Old Soul - YOU
Old souls, Lightworkers reading this, the experiences you have had over lifetimes and lifetimes are incredible! The old soul knows fear. I don't want to be too graphic, but I want you to understand! What was it like when you put your head in the guillotine because you talked about God in a way that was inappropriate? What was it like to be bound hand and foot when they lit the match at your feet? Old soul, that's fear! You carry those experiences in your Akash.
I want to tell you they haven't got a chance to scare you! You absolutely know what fear is, and they haven't got a chance as long as you cling to that part of you that is the strength of God. You've been through it all. That means you've got the weapons of truth, wisdom and light. Don't forget it. Don't forget who you are!
Do you see how fast they assembled? It seemed like only yesterday that there was no organization at all. Where did they come from? Have you noticed a certain hesitancy to fight them? Why is it that the citizens of the lands that they are invading are hesitant to fight them? Instead, these leaders are calling on others to help. Why is it that the others are also hesitant? I want to show you that there are some anomalies of logic that are not making sense, because this is a battle you have never seen before on this planet. We've expected it, but you haven't. It's about consciousness, not land or resources.
How to Win?
We gave you the secret before of how to defeat them without taking even one life: Simply take away their funding. They cannot exist without their funding. The funding has to be organized, stored, and distributed. It has to be generated in such a way that it must also go through institutions. Did you hear that? All you have to do is stop the system. Winning won't be done with bombing. It's going to be done with intelligence, clever thinking and financial forensics. It's time to get smart on some of these things and not to be afraid to look at this puzzle differently than you have before. Do not apply the energy they are using in order to fight them, because you won't win. Figure it out. It's the last bastion of organized darkness and evil thinking on this planet coming together to try to survive the assault of your light. Don't be afraid to look at the funding trail, no matter where it takes you.
Fear is Their Weapon
I want you to know something as you look at your news. It may appear that you are unable to stop them. In many places, they will gain strength as they create fear. The fear is easily created in those who are not old souls and who don't know fear like you do and who don't have the armor of your spiritual experiences. This puts you in the front line, dear one. Did you realize that? But you don't have to go fight them on their terms. All you have to do is broadcast light. High consciousness will beat fear any day.. .”
