Eight US Democratic presidential hopefuls debated the Iraq war in their second public debate Sunday evening in Manchester, N.H., though each of them favors ending the war.
Front-runner former Sen. John Edwards blasted two rivals—Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. Hillary Clinton, for not taking the lead on a recent war spending bill.
A new opinion poll by Washington Post-ABC News finds Clinton leading the Democratic field with 42 percent support, followed by Obama (27 percent) and Edwards (11 percent).
Edwards said his opponents "have been quiet" on calling for a plan to withdraw US troops from Iraq.
Ex-President Charles Taylor’s men were known for eating the hearts of their slain enemies. They decorated checkpoints with human entrails. They sliced open the stomachs of pregnant women, taking bets on the sex of the unborn child.
But as the toppled Liberian ruler heads to an international war crimes court in the Hague today, his supporters are erecting billboards in the capital showing him waving triumphantly next to the words: "God willing, I shall return."
The long-awaited trial of the man accused of orchestrating acts of horror would seem to be a time of celebration in the country that witnessed many of his alleged crimes.
Russia will once again aim its missiles at targets in Europe if US plans to build a missile defense shield near Russia’s borders go ahead, President Vladimir Putin was quoted as saying yesterday.
In an interview reported in Italy’s Corriere della Sera, Putin acknowledged Russia’s response risked restarting an arms race but he said Moscow would not be responsible for the consequences because Washington had started it.
Putin made the tough statement days before a Group of Eight (G8) summit in Germany on June 6 where, among other world leaders, he will come face to face with US President George W. Bush.
Two left-leaning parties of Russia united on Saturday, Russian news agencies reported.
The People’s Party took the decision on its fifth congress on Saturday to unite with the Fair Russia party, which is headed by Sergei Mironov, speaker of the Federation Council—the upper house of parliament, and called for its members to join Fair Russia, the Itar-Tass news agency said.
The People’s Party would be reorganized into a public organization called the People’s Front of Fight Against Corruption, its leader Gennady Gudkov said at the beginning of the congress, which was the party’s last congress in its six-year history.
Burma stands an opportunity to recuperate Global Fund aid to fight HIV, tuberculosis and malaria after it was stopped nearly two years ago, a local media quoted United Nations health officials as saying Monday.
Besides the remarks of Dr. Mario Ravigilione, Director of the anti-TB Department of the World Health Organization, the possibility for Myanmar to re-obtain the Global Fund aid was also implied during a recent meeting at Geneva’s World Health Conference between UNAIDS Director Michael Sidibe and Burma Minister of Health Dr. Kyaw Myint, the Voice news journal said.

9. What will happen to the People’s Party after its unification with the Fair Russia Party?
