Suicide bombs kill 43, wound 100 in Pakistani city LAHORE, Pakistan (AP) -- A pair of suicide bombers targeting army vehicles detonated explosives within seconds of each other Friday, killing at least 43 people in this eastern city and wounding about 100, police said. It was the fourth major attack in Pakistan this week, indicating Islamist militants are stepping up violence after a period of relative calm. About ten of those killed were soldiers, said Lahore police chief Parvaiz Rathore. The bombers, who were on foot, struck RA Bazaar, a residential and commercial neighborhood where several security agencies have facilities. Security forces swarmed the area as thick black smoke rose... Click here for more details. |

Miliband's grand Middle East delusion There is a common ritual that I, like most Britons, have regularly encountered when riding a taxi in Damascus, Amman or Cairo over the past seven years. Talkative and curious, most cabbies will immediately ask where you are from and, on hearing London, raise the usual questions about Tony Blair and Iraq. Seven years after the invasion, British citizens are still taken to task for their government's actions in 2003. It is therefore hard to take seriously David Miliband's claim earlier this week that the Iraq war has boosted Britain's reputation in the Arab world. Called before the Chilcot inquiry, the foreign secretary stated: "People in the region do respect those who are willing to see... Click here for more details. |

Protest organisers say they want to peacefully force a change of government and are demanding new elections be held.

Strong quakes torment Chile as president sworn in MICHAEL WARREN Associated Press Writer= SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) ? The earth shook and shook Thursday as dignitaries walked in for the swearing-in of Sebastian Pinera as Chile's president. It shook some more as they waited for him. People in the balconies of the vast congressional hall in coastal Valparaiso shouted warnings as a massive light fixture rocked overhead, and heads of state nervously eyed the ceiling. But a steely calm prevailed, and Pinera strode in smiling. The president and his ministers then quickly swore their oaths, and the audience of 2,000 headed for the exits and the hills, joining an evacuation called out of concern that Thursday's repeated aftershocks would set off another...

US urges 'prompt' Middle East talks The US vice-president has urged Israelis and Palestinians to engage in negotiations without delay despite outrage and embarrassment over Israel's announcement of plans to build 1,600 new settler homes.

Maliki, Allawi lead Iraq vote count Nouri al-Maliki, the Iraqi prime minister, has been locked in a tight contest with ex-premier Iyad Allawi to win the post of prime minister as initial results from four of the country's 18 provinces show each of them is leading in two provinces.

Kabul 'does not want proxy wars' Hamid Karzai, the president of Afghanistan, has said Pakistan has an important role to play in talks with the Taliban. But he wants Islamabad to hand over a captured Taliban commander.

Berezovsky wins libel case over Litvinenko murder claim The British-based businessman Boris Berezovsky has won his claim for libel after being falsely named on Russian state television as the man behind the murder of the former Moscow agent Alexander Litvinenko.

Yesterday Mr Berezovsky, 63, was awarded £150,000 in libel damages against both the TV channel RTR Planeta and Vladimir Terluk, the man who made the allegations, which were also broadcast on satellite television in the UK in April 2007.
