A Synopsis Of This Morning's News... H/t to ChrisM my MP3Angel for supplying the audio files.
«o»NATO and the Karzai government are negotiating the details of the removal of combat patrol troops from the villages of Afghanistan.
«o»al Qaeda in Yemen has taken credit for the assassination of an American English teacher in the country. They claim the teacher was killed because he was proselytizing Christianity, indicating more than just educating the students about the religion, but cajoling and exhorting Muslim students to convert. It's a serious crime to attempt the conversion of Muslims to any other religion under Sharia Law. The family of the teacher is being evacuated from the country before any further action is taken against them.
«o»The South Korean government is planning to test a long range rocket as allowed under a 2001 treaty but the launch may violate the 165 mile range in the treaty, putting North Korea's capital Pyongyang in targeting range. The US, which is negotiating with the North is attempting to dissuade the South from that launch.
«o»Reports are FINALLY surfacing (these claims were being made within a day of the incident by the Afghan government) in the MSM that Robert Bsles, the US soldier jailed in the Panjwaii Afghanistan civilian massacre was not acting alone. Statements by the villagers claim they were lined up against a wall and told, Operation Phoenix style, that the killings would continue until the villagers stopped supporting the Taliban. The 'metrics' for judging that cessation of support are unknown. Other reports state the group of as many as twenty soldiers were brought to the site by helicopter, which provided cover.
«o»The Supreme Court has ruled that a homeowner must have some recourse to contest the confiscation of property by the EPA in the wake of that agency's attempt to expropriate property in Tennessee they claimed were 'wetlands' despite the fact that there was pond, water, or spring on the property. The family whose home is on the land was being fined $130,000 a day.
