12-11-15 PRESS RELEASE – Zernik v Stanley Fischer in the High Court of Justice of the State of Israel – request for certification of docket


The listing in the online public access system of the Court under the petition file increasingly appear confusing, if not false and misleading. With the docket, also appointment record of the Chief Clerk Sarah Lifschitz was requested. The underlying petition asks to compel Stanley Fischer, Governor of the Bank of Israel to perform his duties, relative to unchecked conduct of Israeli banks in response to the United States FATCA. The petition alleges that Stanley Fischer replaced his loyalty to the State of Israel and its laws with loyalty to another nation and its laws, or with loyalty to financial institutions and their interests.

Jerusalem, November 15 – Joseph Zernik, PhD, of Human Rights Alert (NGO), has forwarded a request to Chief Clerk Sarah Lifschitz of the Supreme Court of the State of Israel for a certified docket in the petition Dr Joseph Zernik v Governor of the Bank of Israel Stanley Fischer (HCJ 7650/12).
The letter in part says:
The listing in the online public access system of the Court under the file name and number, referenced above, increasingly appear confusing, if not false and misleading:
·         On October 23, 2012, only the filing of one paper is listed under "Events"; Petitioner filed two papers on that date.
·         On November 05, 2012 the filing on an "Appeal" is listed under "Events"; Petitioner filed no appeal in this case, where it remains unclear where an appeal could have originated in.
·         On November 07, 2012, the filing of a "document" is listed under "Events" with no name of Filer or any further details regarding the nature of the paper; Petitioner filed no paper, neither was he noticed of the filing of any paper by the Court or any other party on that date.
Today's letter also requests that the Chief Clerk of the Supreme Court provide a copy of her due Appointment Record.  Various court papers provide evidence that Ms Sarah Lifschitz has been occupying the office of Chief Clerk of the Supreme Court since 2002.  In 2012, the office of Administration of Courts of the State of Israel denied a request, pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (1988), for the Appointment Record of Sarah Lifschitz, Chief Clerk of the Supreme Court of the State of Israel, claiming exemption for "records of internal deliberations".
Human Rights Alert's submission for the 2013 Universal Periodic Review of Human Rights in Israel by the Human Rights Council of the United Nations is titled, "Integrity, or lack thereof, of the electronic record systems of the courts of the State of Israel", and subtitled, "A court, which refuses to certify its own records, is certified corrupt".
The Human Rights Alert's submission, based primarily on data mining studies, documents unprecedented corruption of the electronic records of the Supreme Court of the State of Israel, starting in 2002, under Presiding Justice Aharon Barak, including but not limited to numerous decision records, which appear certified by the late Chief Clerk Shmaryahu Cohen, up to five (5) years after his death.
The conduct of Bank of Israel under Governor Stanley Fischer, documented in the underlying petition, permitted Israeli banks to fabricate their own banking regulations in the State of Israel in response to the US FATCA, and then attempt to extort their "US Persons" customers to submit to such simulated banking regulations. 
The petition alleges that conduct of Governor of Bank of Israel Stanley Fischer in this matter, "undermines the sovereignty …  the rule of law in the State of Israel…" and amounts to, "replacement of his loyalty to the State of Israel and its laws to the laws of another nation and/or the interests of financial institutions."
Banking regulation in the State of Israel, as documented in the petition,  should also raise concern regarding integrity and stability of the Israeli financial system itself.
Collusion between the courts and financial institutions has been increasingly recognized as central to the criminality underlying the financial and socio-economic crisis in the United States.

כבוד המזכירה הראשית שרה ליפשיץ,
הכיתובים המופיעים במערכת המקוונת לניהול גישת הציבור לכתבי בית המשפט תחת התיק הנ"ל, נראים יותר ויותר כמבולבלים, אם לא שקריים ומטעים: [1,2]

·         ביום ה-5 באוקטובר, 2012, הכיתוב תחת "אירועים" מורה שהוגש לרישום "ערעור"; העותר מעולם לא הגיש לרישום כל "ערעור" בתיק זה, ואין זה ברור מהיכן יכול היה "ערעור" לנבוע בתיק זה.

12-11-14 Dispatch from Jerusalem - right now, dramatic events in the Kingdom of Jordan, blacked out by media?

Jerusalem, November 14 - for the first time in memory, international tourists report that they are unable to travel from Amman to Jerusalem for security reasons, under social unrest in the Kingdom of Jordan.  The matter was briefly covered in late night new analysis from an Israeli newscaster, with short video clips of the unrest.  However, given other dramatic events in the region, the matter did not seem to register...  
Otherwise, the issue appears to be blacked out by media.  Below are the relevant search results on "Jordan", "social unrest" on Google.

Jordan

Muhammad Hamed/Reuters
Updated: Oct. 19, 2012
Jordan, one of America’s most important allies in the Middle East, was hit in late January 2011 by the waves of unrest that spread across the Arab world in the wake of the revolution in Tunisia. Protests were led by the Islamic Action Front, the political arm of the Muslim Brotherhood, but included leftists and trade unions. Demonstrators protested economic hardship and demanded the right to elect the prime minister, who is currently appointed by King Abdullah II
On Feb. 1, the king dismissed his cabinet and prime minister in a surprise effort to calm street protests that had also been fueled by the country’s worst economic crisis in years. In June, he announced that the government would in the future be elected, not appointed, responding to a demand of protesters calling for democratic change. That fall, the king fired his government yet again.
For most of 2011, demonstrations subsided. The increasingly violent rebellion in neighboring Syria and the brutal suppression by the government of the Syrian president, Bashar al-Assad, appeared to have dampened the enthusiasm of some activists in Jordan, who fear the prospect of a slide into chaos. King Abdullah in November 2011 had become the first of Syria’s Arab neighbors to call for a change in government there.
But in September 2012, angry protests erupted over a planned 10 percent increase in gas prices, part of an effort to reduce the subsidy burden on the state budget. King Abdullah quickly cancelled the increase after a weekend of demonstrations and after 89 of Parliament’s 120 members signed a statement of no confidence in the prime minister over the hikes.
In October, King Abdullah dissolved Parliament, a constitutional move to pave the way for elections expected early in 2013.
Background
Though highly literate and largely stable, with well-developed security and intelligence operations, Jordan has a fundamental vulnerability in the large number of Palestinians living there. Refugees arrived in large numbers from the West Bank and Jerusalem after the war in 1967, and more arrived from Kuwait after Saddam Hussein invaded that country in 1990. They and their descendants make up nearly half the country’s population of 6.5 million.  
Jordan’s main constituencies are the so-called East Bankers or tribes, and the Palestinians who constitute a majority of the nation’s population. East Bankers, the country’s original inhabitants, dominate the civil service, especially the security forces, while the Palestinians rule in the private sector. Economic reform to bring Jordan in line with the global marketplace has tended to benefit the Palestinians, while the East Bankers — the core of the monarchy’s support — rely on the government payroll.

      Why Syria May Be The Catalyst For Jordan’s “Arab Spring”

      November 02, 2012
      Syrian spillover increasingly poses a serious risk of broader instability in Jordan. Jordan's closed political environment coupled with significant economic challenges and increased security-related threats constitute a precarious situation for the kingdom. In particular, King Abdullah's refusal to implement meaningful reforms while stifling deepening social unrest puts Jordan on an unsteady equilibrium. Injecting the dynamic factor of the Syrian crisis could tip Jordan into a full popular uprising.
       Jordan's more recent political unrest stems from its slow paced democratic reform which has achieved little since launched  more than a decade ago. Palace-led reform efforts have yielded little more than a controversial election law and several changes in government. Until now, the King has been able to pacify public unrest and popular reform demands by deflecting most of the criticism toward government ministers rather than the monarchy. Some credit the King's staying power to the legitimacy held by Islamic monarchs or more broadly the social contract between monarchs and their people, but neither of these approaches takes into account the impact -both direct and indirect- that the Syrian crisis may have on the reform process or the new dimensions it adds to Jordan's growing instability.
