Flood claims two lives in southeast Turkey Sat Oct 28, 10:28 AM ET

ANKARA (AFP) - A wife and a husband were killed in the mainly Kurdish province of Sanliurfa in Turkey's southeast as floods caused by torrential rain hit the region. The bodies of the victims, who went missing overnight, were recovered by the security forces in a stream near the village of Sarikuyu on Saturday, Anatolia news agency reported on Saturday.The floods damaged many homes, shops, roads and bridges across the impoverished province and dozens of livestock perished, Anatolia reported.Electricity and telephone services were cut in several villages, it said, adding that civil defense teams and security forces were dispatched to help residents.

Thousands feared displaced in Ethiopian floods 1 hour, 39 minutes ago

ADDIS ABABA (AFP) - Thousands of people may be displaced in southeast Ethiopia after raging floods washed away their homes in the wake of torrential rains that have pounded the region in recent days. Sesay Tadesse, spokesman for the Disaster Prevention and Preparedness Agency (DPPA) said that up to 10,000 people may have been displaced in one area in the Kibre Dehar region, about 700 kilometres (435 miles) southeast of the capital Addis Ababa.We received the reports about the toll of this river flooding, but we need to confirm with our organisation in the region of Kibre Dehar, Sesay told AFP Saturday.He said they had sent a team to the region to assess the situation after the River Wabe Shabelle breached its banks.

We are following up carefully the situation. We have a regional office there and they will verify and monitor the situation and check the figures, he said.According to our team there, which has not yet been able to go on the ground to check, an estimated 10,000 people could be affected only in Kelafo,Sesay said, in reference to one of the affected areas in the region.In addition, he said they were preparing to send some 1,800 tonnes of food supplies to those affected.At least 639 people were killed when unusually heavy rains sparked massive flooding in the country's eastern, northern and southern regions in August, at the height of the July to September rainy season.And a total of 357,000 people were affected by those floods, said to be the the worst in decades, according to the United Nations humanitarian agency.

Ethiopia, home to some 70 million people, has faced heavy floods and droughts in recent years along with other countries in the Horn of Africa which have endured cycles of deadly weather for decades.

Drought persists in parts of Spain after storms

Oct 27, 2006 — MADRID (Reuters) - Even after 10 days of rainstorms across the country, four regions of Spain are still suffering a severe drought, the government said on Friday, after ministers approved an emergency transfer of water to some of them.Reservoirs at the head of the Tagus river, which are themselves low, will send 12 cubic hectometers of water to the Segura basin in the southeast, which is even worse off, to provide drinking water for towns there. A cubic hectometer a cube with 100 meter (yard) sides is roughly the size of a football stadium.

Two years of drought, the first of them the worst ever recorded, have left many of Spain's autonomous regions short of water and bickering about any transfers the central government tries to impose.

Farming regions in central Spain, like Castilla-La Mancha, are increasingly unwilling to send water to the southeast coast to cover the needs of new homes, golf courses or fruit farmers. The Castilla-La Mancha government this week won agreement from the two main political parties to stop transfers from the Tagus to the Segura river for good in 2015. The government said it had invested more than 600 million euros ($760 million) since the drought began in emergency measures to avoid water restrictions to homes.

The Socialists threw out the previous government's plan to divert water from the Ebro river to the dry southeast and is instead building desalination plants all along the Mediterranean and investing heavily in improvements to farm irrigation systems. Despite the recent rain, the situation is still very different from one basin to another. While some areas are suffering from flooding, the drought is still concentrated in the Jucar and Segura basins, it said in a statement. Those rivers run through the regions of Valencia and Murcia.

Climate change models show Spain is likely to get less rain overall in the future and that what does fall will be more unevenly distributed.

FLOODS CHAOS CLEAR-UP BEGINS

AHUGE clear-up operation was launched yesterday after storms wreaked havoc in the Highlands. Torrential rain and gale-force winds battered the north-east on Thursday, causing the worst flooding in the area for 70 years. The storms cut off power to 50,000 homes. Yesterday, 8000 were still blacked out. Several roads, including stretches of the A9, remained closed by flood water, fallen trees and landslides. Ross-shire, Caithness, Moray, Aberdeenshire and the Northern Isles were hit. Dingwall and the nearby village of Evanton were worst affected, with the floodwater 6ft deep in places.

Yesterday, residents who had been evacuated overnight returned home to chaotic scenes. James Kelt, 50, of Dingwall, said the downstairs of his home had been destroyed by floodwater. He added: I've never seen anything like this before. The water is away, but everything has turned to sludge. Everything is ruined. We've no power, so we can't get anyone in to fix things. The Dingwall to Thurso railway line was still closed yesterday following a landslide. Northern Constabulary declared a major incident on Thursday morning and by last night they had dealt with 338 incidents. To add to their woes, four wartime shells were found at the A9 at Alness, Ross-shire. Army bomb disposal experts closed part of the road and carried out two controlled explosions. Yesterday, forecasters said the worst of the weather was over, with only light winds and rain expected today and tomorrow.

ULYSSES, Kan. Forecasters said Friday that the same weather system that dumped heavy snow in Colorado is responsible for two-dozen tornadoes in southwest Kansas.Most of them were weak, but one tore part of the roof off the hospital Thursday in the town of Ulysses, and nine patients had to be moved to other rooms.Some fences and sheds also were knocked down by the storms.No injuries were reported.

Deadly fires in California
Firefighters die in California blaze,Oct 28, 2006

Thick smoke and hot winds hampered firefighters as they battled a deadly wildfire in mountains near Palm Springs, California, while the reward for information on those who started it was quadrupled.Four firefighters died and a fifth was on life support with 90% burns after being engulfed by the 9,700 hectare blaze, still out of control on its second day.Fire officials are treating the fire as arson and the deaths as murder but have not detailed their reasons. A reward rose to $400,000 on Friday after contributions from the local Morongo Indian tribe and California state coffers.The Los Angeles Times on Friday quoted local residents as saying they had seen teenagers smoking marijuana around midnight Thursday near where the fire is thought to have started about 27 kilometres northwest of Palm Springs.

Weather forecasters expected at least one more day of seasonal Santa Ana winds, gusting up to 72 kph, throughout tinder dry southern California.The 24km wall of flames was expected to take days to bring under control. When the Santa Ana winds blow, all bets are off and it is very difficult to predict,Riverside County Fire Dept. Chief John Hawkins told KCAL9 television.Billowing clouds of acrid smoke made it difficult for water tankers and helicopters to operate and for officials to accurately assess the size and scope of damage on the ground.

The wind and Mother Nature is one thing we can't control out there,said Riverside County Fire Department spokeswoman Julie Hutchinson.Doctors said the prognosis for the injured fireman, Pablo Cerda, 23, was poor. Cerda has 90% burns, kidney failure and severe lung damage.His degree of burns is one of the most severe I have seen,Dr David Wong, chief trauma specialist at the Arrowhead Regional Medical Center, told reporters.

Meanwhile more than 700 people who were forced to flee on Thursday waited anxiously with friends or at rescue centres for news of their homes. At least 10 buildings have been destroyed but the number was expected to rise.Some watched on television as their houses burned to the ground. It was a real sinking feeling,said Duane Sage. I was thinking about remodelling, but not quite like this,he told ABC7 television.About 100 people were roused from their beds as the fire briefly threatened a community near the town of Banning in the early hours of Friday.Another 400 to 1,000 people spent a tense night trapped in a recreational vehicle park in the San Jacinto mountains. Firefighters were hoping to get them out on Friday.The blaze has yet to wreak the destruction of October 2003, when wildfires burned for days in mountains outside Los Angeles and near San Diego, killing 24 people, destroying more than 3,000 homes and burning some 300,000 hectares.Source: Reuters

Israel may bomb along border with Egypt: paper Fri Oct 27, 8:21 AM ET

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel may soon use smart bombs on the narrow border between Egypt and the Gaza Strip to destroy tunnels used to smuggle weapons into the Palestinian territory, an Israeli newspaper reported on Friday. Maariv daily said the precision-guided weapons would be used to penetrate deep underground in the hope of destroying the tunnel network that Israel says riddles the narrow border area.The border strip, known as the Philadelphi Corridor, is 11 km long (6.5 miles) and approximately 100 metres wide.The plan (as it was presented) includes detailed reference to the proximity to the Egyptian border and the surrounding civilian population,Maariv said.

An Israeli army spokesman declined to comment on the report, saying that private discussions of the army chief of staff could not be disclosed.Egyptian officials were unavailable for comment.Israel says it has been unable to control weapons smuggling into Gaza since it withdrew its forces from the coastal strip last year.The decision to use smart bombs may be a substitute to reoccupying the entire region, the newspaper said.Egyptian police recently seized 195 crates of automatic weapons and ammunition meant to be smuggled across the border.Israel estimates that tons of munitions, including advanced shoulder-fire missiles, have been smuggled into Gaza through the tunnels, though they have presented scarce evidence that such weaponry is being used by Gaza militants.

The Israeli army said its troops discovered 15 tunnels along the border during the past week.Maariv said the air force was given the green light to drop bombs after a similar campaign successfully destroyed tunnels along the northern Gaza border with Israel.The army began targeting underground passages in Gaza after Palestinian militants tunneled into Israel and abducted one of its soldiers in a raid on June 25.Israel has since launched an expanded offensive to retrieve the captured soldier. More than 250 Palestinians have been killed in the fighting, about half of them civilians.

Thank goodness Christians don't burn down Mosques and riot because of bad press unlike others do. We leave our revenge in Gods (KING JESUS) hands, through prayer and speaking out.

Christian Zionism: An Egregious Threat to US- Middle East Understanding
By The Council for the National Interest

Christian Zionism, a belief that paradise for Christians can only be achieved once Jews are in control of the Holy Land, is gathering strength in the United States and forging alliances that are giving increasingly weird shape to American policy toward the Middle East. The nature of the movement and its detrimental impact on policy was the subject of the 22nd Capitol Hill public hearing presented by the Council for the National Interest yesterday.

A new Zogby International poll commissioned by the CNI Foundation shows that 31 percent of those surveyed in the national poll strongly believe or somewhat believe in the ideas behind Christian Zionism, defined as the belief that Jews must have all of the promised land, including all of Jerusalem, to facilitate the second coming of the messiah.Other polls bear similar messages, that 53% of Americans believe that Israel was given by God to the Jews, and that 59% of the American public believes the prophecies contained in the Book of Revelations will come true

The international implications of such beliefs are profound, as an increasing number of Americans believe that God sets foreign policy goals. Rev. Robert O. Smith, Lutheran pastor at the University of Chicago, one of the speakers at the hearing, discussed the development of this belief that dates to the 19th century and how it has received a powerful new impetus with the founding this year of a new group of the Christian right called Christians United for Israel (CUFI).

And yet while it works closely with Jewish Zionist organizations in the US, including the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, to promote the continued occupation of Palestine by the Israel (land God has given the Jews), it works just as effectively in dehumanizing the original inhabitants of the Holy Land, both Muslims and Christians.

Another speaker, Rammy Haija, who teaches at Radford University, drew attention to the necessity in the Christian Zionist dogma for the Israelis to retain control not only of the whole of the occupied territory but also all of Jerusalem. Christian Zionists have pushed the militarist policies of both Israel and the U.S. in an effort to secure the Holy Land in preparation for the coming of the promised land. As part of this strategy, the U.S. occupation of Iraq is deemed absolutely necessary.

The irony of the alliance between Christian Zionists and Jewish Zionists is that the one ideology promotes the ultimate destruction of the other. As Smith pointed out, the Christians United for Israel is all about Israel, not about the Israelis, and only a little surface digging into Christian Zionism shows how anti-Semitic it really is. So much so that Abraham Foxman, the head of the Anti-Defamation League, one of the ceaseless champions of Zionism in this country, has called the Christian right one of the direst threats to American Jews.

This has not prevented top Israeli officials from paying homage to the Christian right, including Ariel Sharon (before he descended into a comatose state brought on by the withdrawal of the settlers from Gaza, Pat Robertson opined), the Israeli ambassador Daniel Ayalon, and Benjamin Netanyahu, and a host of others. The ability of CUFI and other far right Christian religious leaders like Jerry Farwell and Pat Robertson to raise money for Israel, including Israeli settlements, is well documented.

Christian Zionism, Smith concluded, has a fundamental lack of earthly concerns, is divorced from reality, and undermines the work of politics. Its practical impact is the killing of people in the Holy Land. The recent statement by the Christian religious leaders of Jerusalem that warned against Christian Zionism's policies of racist intolerance and perpetual war was much needed, but it should have come from America's religious leaders.(www.cnionline.net)

Spain plans new Middle East peace conference

MADRID — Spain plans to float the idea of a Mideast peace conference, similar to that held in Madrid in 1991, at a meeting this week of ministers from Mediterranean countries, diplomatic sources said yesterday. The suggestion could be made at the Mediterranean Forum (Foromed) meeting in Alicante in southeast Spain being held and attended by ministers from 11 states. The forum is a consultative body associated with the so-called Barcelona Euro-Mediterranean process, a framework for political, economic and social relations in the region.

A declaration is due to be issued at the end of the meeting, to be attended by foreign ministers or their deputies from Algeria, Egypt, France, Greece, Italy, Malta, Morocco, Portugal, Spain, Turkey and Tunisia. Libya has observer status. Spain’s Foreign Minister Miguel Angel Moratinos told the country’s parliament this week that the roadmap for a search for peace in the Middle East was no longer adequate and that a major initiative, of the type of the 1991 Madrid conference, now appeared necessary. The October 1991 Madrid conference was attended by Israel and Arab states under the aegis of the United States and the Soviet Union.

It set out a framework for a Middle East peace process and opened the way to the 1993 Oslo accords on Palestinian self-rule. Moratinos knows the region well, has been a European Union special envoy and visited the area frequently recently. He told the Spanish parliament that it was still too early to say where or in what framework a new conference might be held. — AFP

Mediterranean leaders to push for relaunch of peace process
By The Associated Press

ALICANTE, Spain - Top diplomats from 11 countries bordering the Mediterranean will produce a new batch of proposals for reviving the Middle East peace process at a two-day meeting in Spain beginning Friday, a leading Spanish diplomat said.

The annual informal gathering of the so-called Foromed group comes after Foreign Minister Miguel Angel Moratinos, a leading European voice on the Middle East, said Tuesday he felt the road map peace plan no longer provided the answers to resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He urged the European Union to take the lead in pushing for a fresh approach.Israeli and Palestinian officials said Moratinos was overly pessimistic and expressed their continuing faith in the road map.

The Foromed group will issue a closing declaration Saturday offering a new vision of how things are going in the Middle East, said a Spanish foreign ministry diplomat involved in organizing the meeting. He stressed that the declaration would not oppose the road map.It's not that the road map is of no use, but it's not enough.

A lot more needs to be done, more proposals need to be made, said the diplomat, who spoke on condition of anonymity because ministry ground rules forbid him to be identified.Described as a group of like-minded countries, Foromed was formed on the initiative of Egypt and France in 1994 to boost political, economic and cultural cooperation in the Mediterranean region long hindered by the Middle East conflict. Neither Israel nor the Palestinians are represented in the group.

The Spanish official did not rule out the possibility that Foromed would call for the staging of another Middle East summit along the lines of the Madrid summit in 1991, as has been mooted by Moratinos.EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana, meanwhile, is touring the Middle East to sound out countries on reviving the peace process.Joining Moratinos at the meeting in the Spanish Mediterranean port city will be the foreign ministers for Egypt, Greece, Italy, Malta, Morocco, Portugal and Turkey. Algeria, France and Tunisia were to send state secretaries.The group will hold a working dinner late Friday followed by a meeting Saturday before Moratinos presents the declaration to reporters at an early-afternoon news conference.

Moratinos has long offered to have Spain play a role in resolving the Israeli-Palestinian dispute, but has had little response from either side in recent years.Madrid hosted a landmark conference in 1991, bringing together Israel and many of its Arab enemies for the first time. Those talks helped lay the foundation for the Oslo peace process, which resulted in the establishment of the Palestinian Authority.Moratinos argues that any new talks should involve Syria - a longtime foe of Washington and that Iran's nuclear program would also need to be addressed at such a conference.

Egypt to develop roadmap plan with specific timetable: FM

Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Abul Gheit said Friday that Egypt was seeking to develop the roadmap peace plan in order to reach means of putting the plan into effect with a specific timetable, the official news agency MENA reported. The top Egyptian diplomat made the remarks before leaving for Alicante in southeast Spain, where he would attend the Mediterranean Forum meeting along with foreign ministers from Spain, Algeria, France, Greece, Italy, Malta, Morocco, Portugal, Turkey and Tunisia. Libya, which has an observer status, is taking part in the forum for the first time. Abul Gheit was quoted as saying that talks at the Mediterranean Forum meeting will focus on the situation in the Mideast, noting that the forum meeting would tackle Mideast issues including the Palestinian issue along with the situation in Lebanon and Syria. He said that Spain had a certain view in this regard, asserting that Egypt would highlight the importance of pushing forward the Mideast peace process.

According to MENA, the forum meeting will address the Middle East peace process, especially the roadmap plan initiated by the international Quartet of the United States, Russia, the European Union and the United Nations. Launched in 2003, the roadmap peace plan was aimed to establish a viable Palestinian state living alongside Israel in peace by 2005. Egypt, as a regional power long since playing a mediating role between Israel and the Palestinians, has since May urged the roadmap plan to be revised.

Talks of the forum will also take up the dialogue among civilizations, said Abul Gheit, warning of the dangers of a clash of civilizations. He called for peaceful coexistence and mutual understanding among various civilizations, a matter that would positively affect future relations.About the Darfur crisis and Sudan's expulsion of the United Nations envoy, Abul Gheit said that the Sudanese government rejected certain statements by UN envoy Jan Pronk.

He said he believed that the UN will send another envoy to Sudan for cooperation between the international organization and the Sudanese government to continue. He stressed that there was no place for deterioration in UN- Sudanese relations in light of the current situation in Darfur. The attendees of the forum could reach an agreement if negotiated on the basis of keeping the African troops in Darfur and reinforcing them with UN forces, according to Abul Gheit.

The Sudanese Foreign Ministry on Oct. 22 ordered Pronk to leave the country in three days. Earlier, the Sudanese army announced that Pronk was not welcomed in this country for his flagrant interference in the army's affairs. The Sudanese side also accused the UN top envoy in Sudan of launching a psychological war on the Sudanese army by spreading fabricated false information doubting the army's capability to maintain the security and stability of the country. The UN Security Council adopted resolution 1706 on Aug.

31, calling for the deployment of more than 20,000 international peacekeepers to replace the 7,800 AU forces in Darfur. But the Sudanese government has rejected the mission transfer, saying it was a violation of Sudan's sovereignty and an effort by the West to re-colonize the African oil producing country. Egypt has been firmly supporting Sudan's stance on the deployment of UN forces, insisting any deployment should first get approval from the Sudanese government. Source: Xinhua

Israel snubs EU delegation due to far-Right MP

Foreign Ministry says will not welcome delegation of EU parliamentarians due to inclusion of Marine Le Pen of France. FM spokesperson: Le Pen member of racist party that denies Holocaust Reuters Published:

10.27.06, 21:47 Israel said on Friday it would not welcome a delegation of European Union parliamentarians planning to visit the country this week if it included a far-right French member.The Foreign Ministry said Israel objected to the inclusion of Marine Le Pen, daughter of far-right French leader Jean-Marie Le Pen, in the delegation.A spokesman for the European Parliament said the delegation had postponed the trip.

The delegation contained a senior member (Marine Le Pen) of a political party which, unfortunately, is both racist and a Holocaust denier,Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman Mark Regev said. For that reason we said that if such a delegation with such a composition would come to Israel they would not receive official meetings,he added. The delegation was scheduled to visit Israel and the Palestinian territories between October 28 and November 4. It was expected to meet Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.We wanted to receive delegations from the European parliament, but the composition of the delegation made that impossible,Regev said. A spokeswoman for the European Parliament said it was a postponement due to technical problems that could affect the success of the mission, but a parliamentary source confirmed it was due to Israel's refusal to accept Le Pen.

Jean-Marie Le Pen said Israel's refusal to meet his daughter ran contrary to diplomatic traditions and basic democracy. Le Pen, who caused an upset in France's 2002 presidential election when he finished second, was convicted and fined in 1990 for inciting racial hatred and for saying in 1996 that the gas chambers used by the Nazis were merely a detail in the history of the Second World War.Marine Le Pen, who is seen as the most likely successor to her 78-year-old father, told Reuters last week that her planned trip to Israel would be an opportunity to clear up a certain number of misunderstandings.

Experts Warn Israel to Prepare for War
October 28, 2006 07:18 AM EST

By Sher Zieve - Founder of the Institute for Counter-Terrorism Boaz Ganor warns that Israel will face threats from multiple sources by 2007. Ganor also advised that one of the threats will be from an alliance between Iran and terrorist Hezbollah, which will cause a terrible deterioration along Israel’s northern border.Speaking to YnetNews.com, Ganor said: The year 2007 is going to be a critical year, as the international arena will do its utmost to narrow down the nuclear capabilities of Iran. It could be done by using more affirmative sanctions, or even a military campaign. And the ramification of such an attempt, even if it's only sanctions, will cause a terrible deterioration of the situation on the northern border, where Iran will use its proxy Hizbullah to retaliate against Israel, and make clear that Israel has to pay for any activities against Iran.

In a prepared report, expert on Islamic history Professor Moshe Sharon wrote: Hizbullah is the immediate enemy. No one will disarm it because it has no intention of disarming and there is no one to coerce it to do so. The UN is collaborating with Hizbullah and none of its member nations has any interest in dealing with it. The Shiite of Hizbullah has taken control of Lebanon with the generous help of Iran and Syria and it will not relinquish it even if this means bringing about its total destruction. Lebanon will gradually be emptied of its remaining Christian population and zealous Islam will have achieved an important objective: One of the only two non-Muslim countries in the Middle East will just disappear.

Mubarak to ask China for help with nuclear program

Egyptian president to visit China, Russia and Kazakhstan, expected to appeal to China for help on nuclear energy program.

Egyptian official: We could also benefit from Russia's nuclear knowledge Roee Nahmias Published: 10.28.06, 13:49. Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak set out this week for a series of meetings in China, Russia and Kazakhstan. Mubarak will meet leaders of the three nations and speak with them on financial issues including trading areas, joint investments and even collaboration on a nuclear energy program.Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit told the Ahbar al Yom Egyptian paper that during Mubarak's visit, he would discuss the country's program for Nuclear energy for peaceful purposes. Mubarak is also expected to sign agreements with China regarding technological information sharing. While in Beijing, the president will take part in a ceremony honoring half a century of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

The Egyptian ambassador to Moscow Ezzat Saad said in an interview to government-affiliated newspaper al-Ahram that Egypt could benefit a great deal from Russian knowledge of peace-oriented nuclear energy, in preparation for building power stations to produce electricity.Over a month ago, Mubarak surprised the world by declaring that his state wished to develop nuclear energy for peaceful purposes.The announcement came days after his son Jamal's statement that he wished to utilize the existing knowledge in the country to advance technological development. In a speech that concluded the fourth meeting this year of the National Democratic Party the nation's ruling party Mubarak emphasized that nuclear energy was intended to compensate for Egypt's lack of oil and natural gas reserves. Several days later, the a-Sharq al-Awsat paper reported that Egypt had formally declared its intention to build three nuclear reactors for the purpose of providing electricity. The Egyptian Energy Ministry decided that the reactors would be built in the northwest part of the country, along the Mediterranean. The reactors would theoretically be able to provide 1800 megawatts of electricity jointly (600 megawatts each). The reactors would be built according to western models, which are considered very safe.
