At least nine dead after tornado on southern Texas border APR 25,07

WASHINGTON (AFP) - A tornado ripped across the US-Mexico border, killing at least nine people and injuring dozens more, local authorities and media said on Wednesday. Six people were killed in the small Texas town of Eagle Pass, officials said. Three others were killed in Mexico a few miles (kilometers) away, television station KDFW in Dallas reported.

The tornado struck Eagle Pass, at about 6:00 pm (2200 GMT) on Tuesday evening, destroying some 20 homes, an elementary school and a sewage treatment plant, local television stations reported.We have six confirmed fatalities, a spokeswoman for the mayor, Chad Foster, told AFP. Some 81 people were treated for injuries at a local hospital, including four who suffered critical injuries, the mayor's office said.State authorities deployed National Guard units to help with search and clean-up efforts, local media reported.

The mayor's office said three shelters had been opened for those who lost their homes.The same storm system that produced the tornado also had caused flash flooding elsewhere in Texas, with television footage showing people wading through waist-deep water after being rescued from flooded cars or homes.Numerous flights were delayed or cancelled in and out of Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport due to the storm.

The Nation's Weather By WEATHER UNDERGROUND, For The Associated Press
Wed Apr 25, 5:59 AM ET


A storm system that has dumped rain on parts of the Plains will cause more severe weather in the central and eastern parts of the country on Wednesday. Severe thunderstorms are likely through the lower Mississippi and Tennessee Valleys, with high winds, hail and even tornadoes possible.Widely scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected along a front stretching from the mid-Mississippi and Ohio Valleys to the northern Mid-Atlantic region and southern New England.Light rain and high mountain snow is expected in the Northwest, and rain is expected in the northern Rockies and Plains.

Warm, dry weather is expected in the Southeast and Southwest.Temperatures in the lower 48 states Tuesday ranged from a low of 21 degrees at Stonington, Mich., to a high of 93 degrees at Thermal, Calif.

On Israeli Independence Day, help stop the threat of Iran APR 24,07

Don't let history repeat itself.A rogue nation in the 1930s was ignored until it was too late to save Europe's Jews.Act now before Ahmadinejad has a chance to carry out a second Holocaust.

Dear Stan

As we celebrate Israel's Independence Day, Israel's enemies are openly advocating its destruction. Ahmadinejad's plan to wipe Israel off the map is not much different than Hitler's was in the 1930's.While global leaders are practicing the politics of appeasement, the menace of Iran armed with nuclear weapons is gathering strength. A nuclear Iran poses a threat not only to Israel but to the entire free world.Will you sit on the sidelines or will you do your part to get the world to act? No one wants to think the unthinkable, but those who bury their heads in the sand and simply count on others to do the right thing are relying on hope. But when lives are at stake, hope is a poor planning tool.At The Israel Project (TIP), we have a plan to make sure the world knows the threat a nuclear Iran poses to Israel and the world.

With your continued support, TIP will focus on the following activities which are imperative if Israel and the world are to remain safe from nuclear rogue nations like Iran. http://www.theisraelproject.org/donate.

Your tax-deductible gift to TIP in the amount of at least $25 will allow us to continue defending Israel and the world by: Educating the public about the threat of a nuclear Iran to the entire world, including Israel, through a full-scale global media relations effort.

Gathering public support to compel Hamas to agree to the 3 R's: Recognize Israel, Renounce terror and Respect previous agreements. Reminding the public about the sacrifices Israel has made for peace and focusing on the continuing terrorism emanating from Gaza and beyond. Focusing attention on the threat of Hezbollah and the need to implement UN resolutions on Lebanon. Israel's enemies have poured of tens of millions of dollars into a global media campaign to destroy Israel's image in the world. They have staged tragedies and doctored photos to position Israel as an aggressor with no regard for human suffering.That's why TIP's efforts to reach out to the global media with the truth are so important.

The Israel Project has now become the go-to place in the pro-Israel community for message research and communications strategies proven effective in the war for the hearts and minds of the public. TIP's research is made available free of charge to Jewish Federations, Jewish Community Relations Councils and other Jewish groups throughout the country as well as to officials in Israel. TIP's research team includes the best and brightest in strategic communications: Stan Greenberg, PhD; Neil Newhouse; Anna Greenberg, PhD; Ari Fleischer; and Dan Hazelwood.

But we must do more.

The current threat posed by rogue nuclear states bent on attacking Israel and the rest of the world demands that TIP increase its efforts to educate the global media on this threat and what it means to Israel and the rest of the world.This will mean creating and executing a communications effort to educate the public and media on a global scale.That is why your tax deductible gift is needed now before it is too late!http://www.theisraelproject.org/donate.

We were too late once before when the world turned its back to the threat of a rogue nation bent on destruction in the 1930's. With your continued support, The Israel Project will make sure the same mistake is not made again.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Laszlo Mizrahi

Germany sends letter to salvage EU constitution
23.04.2007 - 17:45 CET | By Honor Mahony


German chancellor Angela Merkel has indicated Berlin is going to leave as much of the EU constitution intact as possible making only the minimum changes needed to get sceptical nations such as the UK, Poland and the Czech Republic on board.

British media over the weekend gave details of a leaked letter by Mrs Merkel in which she says Every effort will have to be made to restrict change to what is absolutely necessary to reach an overall agreement and to ensure ratification by all member states.The letter, quoted in The Times, shows the pragmatic line that Berlin is taking in an effort to get reluctant nations on board but also to make sure that the 18 countries that have already largely ratified the document are catered for.For its part, the German government has denied reports of a letter from Mrs Merkel. There is no such letter from the chancellor to her counterparts, deputy government spokesman Thomas Steg said on Saturday, according to Spiegel Online.But it has not denied asking 12 crucial questions of national governments, with a summit fast approaching in June where member states will be asked to lay their cards on the political table and agree a timetable and a basic frame of reference for the treaty.

The 12 questions attempt to put together some of the suggestions that member states have made for altering the constitution, which was rejected by French and Dutch voters two years ago. Some of the questions include purely cosmetic changes such as altering the name of the proposed EU foreign minister the Czech government recently brought this issue up as well as dropping the symbols of the EU the flag, hymn and logo something which the Dutch are in favour of.

Berlin also asks if enlargement criteria should be included in a future treaty and if there should be a reference to the social dimension of Europe France strongly supports this as well as whether countries should be able to opt in or out of future provisions of the treaty.This model has been used in previous treaties with Denmark being granted an opt out from the single currency, defence policy, EU citizenship and justice and home affairs after it rejected the Maastricht treaty in 1992.The chancellor's questions, reported in the Swedish website Europaportalen, also ask whether to replace the full text of the Charter of Fundamental Rights by a short cross reference having the same legal value.Taking up an important suggestion by UK prime minister Tony Blair, question number two indirectly asks whether the constitution could be presented as a document that is amending the 2001 Nice Treaty.

How do you assess in that case the proposal made by some Member States that the consolidated approach of part 1 of the Constitutional Treaty is preserved, with the necessary presentational changes resulting from the return to the classical method of treaty changes? asks the chancellor.

The German leader has upped the tempo around the constitution and is due to meet EU leaders bilaterally over the coming weeks to see if she can smooth out as many of the difficulties as possible before the June summit.Under Berlin's timetable, there will be a short intergovernmental conference in the second half of this year, with ratification by member states planned in 2008 and the whole exercise wrapped up by the European elections in mid 2009.

NATO, EU Working Harder To Coordinate Efforts
By BROOKS TIGNER, BRUSSELS APR 24,07


Dialogue and cooperation between NATO and the European Union appear to be on the mend, several years after tension flared over the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003.NATO and the union are working more tightly than ever — for example, to orchestrate a peaceful transition of Kosovo to independence and to coordinate military and civil security reforms in Afghanistan. Just as important, the uneasy rhetorical competition about who should do what regarding security policy in Europe is subsiding. Accommodation and a flexible division of security tasks are now the operative concepts.

The EU needs a partnership, a strategic partnership, with NATO, and it is very important to accept the challenge of cooperating with it, German Defense Minister Franz Josef Jung told an audience of German officials here April 10. We must not consider NATO or the U.N. as competitors. They and the EU are complementary to each other and it is obvious we should now work closely together. At the very least, we do not have the financial means to compete with each other.

Though EU sensitivities remain about cozying up too publicly to NATO, the two sides are consulting closely on a wide range of practical matters, albeit behind closed doors. NATO and EU military planners are carefully synchronizing the timing of the drawdown of EU peacekeeping troops in Bosnia-Herzegovina with contingency planning in nearby Kosovo, in case of security problems linked to Kosovo’s imminent detachment from Serbia. Alliance and union experts meet regularly on civil reconstruction efforts in Afghanistan, where an EU civil security mission soon will be established to train and reform the country’s police sector. The two blocs also coordinate logistics assistance to African Union forces in Darfur, Sudan, and may be asked to do the same in Somalia.Finally, NATO military planners are working more closely with EU counterparts than in the past to avoid duplication or competing claims on rapid-reaction capabilities as the union creates its 1,500-strong rapid-reaction battle groups. Two of the battle groups are close to operational readiness and another 13 will be created in the coming years.

Jung is not alone in pushing for a change of stance in EU-NATO relations. NATO Secretary-General Jaap De Hoop Scheffer has repeatedly called on the union to establish healthier consultations with the alliance. EU officialdom has not formally echoed de Hoop Scheffer’s appeal, but there is a growing recognition in its military and security policy circles that institutional competition with NATO will do more harm than good.Avoiding competition between the EU battle groups and the NATO Response Force is a good example. We are not going to duplicate the NATO Response Force, French Gen. Henri Bentégeat, EU Military Committee chairman, told reporters here in March during an EU-flagged naval exercise. He is widely seen as supporting closer coordination with NATO.Lt. Gen. David Leakey, head of the union’s Military Staff, the operational and planning wing that reports to the committee, holds a similar view: Look at all the EU member states that are double-hatted; it’s not as if each side [NATO and the EU] doesn’t know what the other is doing, he said, referring to European security and military personnel who shuttle between the two organizations. We talk to NATO and we coordinate planning.

One potentially sharp disturbance to EU-NATO relations, however, is the U.S. offer to extend its missile defense shield across Europe by setting up radar tracking and interceptor sites in Poland and the Czech Republic. Both are NATO and EU members.Washington’s discussion of the subject with capitals outside the framework of NATO or the union has upset member states in both organizations.

EU leaders are nervous about public opposition to missile deployment in Eastern Europe as well as Russian hostility to the U.S. system, while alliance politicians want debate on missile defense in Europe placed within a NATO context, not bilaterally between Washington and selected partners.If Washington is going to build a missile shield across Europe, it needs to be discussed within NATO, and you cannot leave Russia out of the talks, Jung said.E-mail: btigner@defensenews.com.

Israel rules out major Gaza offensive By STEVE WEIZMAN, Associated Press Writer APR 25,07

JERUSALEM - Prime Minister Ehud Olmert on Wednesday authorized the army to carry out limited operations against militants in the Gaza Strip, but ruled out a large-scale ground offensive in response to a new round of Hamas rocket attacks, Israeli officials said.

The decision was made at an emergency meeting that Olmert held with senior security officials following the fresh rocket fire. The violence has threatened to unravel a five-month cease-fire.Two meeting participants said Olmert agreed to allow the army to carry out pinpoint operations to halt the rocket fire, but decided against a widespread offensive, essentially continuing current Israeli policy in Gaza. There have been growing calls in military circles for tougher action in Gaza.

The participants spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter with the media.On Tuesday, the Islamic militant group said its members fired 41 rockets and 54 mortar shells in response to Israeli raids.The Israeli military said it could confirm the launching of only six rockets and eight shells. Just two rockets reached Israel, causing no casualties or injuries, the
army said.The head of an Egyptian security delegation in Gaza, Maj. Gen. Burhan Hamad, called a meeting of all Palestinian factions Wednesday morning, urging them to maintain the calm to avert any possible Israeli invasion of Gaza.He condemned the rocket barrages, as well as the Israeli raids earlier in the week that killed nine Palestinians, most of them militants. Egypt frequently acts as a mediator between Israel and Palestinian militants.

Hamas is a partner in the Palestinian coalition government, whose platform calls for a long-term truce with Israel.Israeli media, citing military officials, said the rocket bombardment apparently had been intended to create a diversion in order to capture an Israeli soldier near the Gaza border. The military refused to comment on the reports.Hamas-linked militants have been holding a 20-year-old Israeli corporal, Gilad Shalit, captive since capturing him in a cross-border raid last June.Olmert and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas announced the Gaza truce in late November, declaring an end to Palestinian rocket fire and Israeli attacks, including airstrikes at Gaza militants and invasions of towns in northern Gaza.Israel has stopped most of military activity but kept Gaza in a stranglehold by frequently closing its vital border crossings, citing security threats. While Hamas rocket squads stayed on the sidelines, other groups, like Islamic Jihad, have kept up fire of homemade rockets almost daily at Israeli towns and villages just outside Gaza.Tuesday's rocket barrage, coinciding with Israeli Independence Day, was the first sign Hamas was backing away from the truce.The cease-fire has been over for a long time, and Israel is responsible for that, Hamas spokesman Abu Obeida, told the Voice of Palestine radio station.

On a visit to Rome, Abbas called on Israel to exercise the necessary self-control and said the truce violation is an exceptional act which will not last.Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh of Hamas appeared to defend the attack.We made great efforts at keeping the truce and there was a positive Palestinian position, but unfortunately this position was met by expanding (Israeli) aggression and escalating it against the Palestinian people, he said. Haniyeh's spokesman, Ghazi Hamad, also blamed Israel, but said the Palestinian government affirms the importance of maintaining the truce and protecting it.Peretz told Israel Radio late Tuesday that the Hamas claim of responsibility for the rockets attack was a very serious matter, and we will have to deal with it.Also Wednesday, the army ended a general closure of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. The closure, put in place on Sunday for Israeli Memorial Day and Independence Day, had barred virtually all Palestinians from entering Israel. Thousands of Palestinians enter Israel each day for work, medical care and family visits.

Scientists discover super-Earth planet Wed Apr 25, 6:35 AM ET

PARIS (AFP) - Astronomers reported on Wednesday they had discovered a super-Earth more than 20 light years away that is the most intriguing world found so far in the search for extraterrestrial life.

About five times the mass of Earth, the planet orbits a cool, dim red dwarf star located in the constellation of Libra, the team from the European Southern Observatory (ESO) said in a press release.The star, Gliese 581, has already been identified as hosting a planet similar in size to Neptune, the frigid gas giant on the edge of our own Solar System.The new planet is 14 times closer to Gliese 581 than the Earth is to the Sun. But because Gliese 581 is so cool, the planet is not scorched by solar radiation. It zips around the star at express speed, making just 13 days to complete an orbit.

We have estimated that the mean temperature of this super-Earth lies between 0 and 40 degrees Celsius (32 and 104 degrees Fahrenheit), and water would thus be liquid, said lead researcher Stephane Udry of Switzerland's Geneva University.Moreover, its radius should be only 1.5 times the Earth's radius, and models predict that the planet should be either rocky like our Earth or covered with oceans.Liquid water is critical to life as we know it, said Xavier Delfosse, a team member from France's Grenoble University.Because of its temperature and relative proximity, this planet will most probably be a very important target of the future space missions dedicated to the search for extra terrestrial life.He added: On the treasure map of the Universe, one would be tempted to mark this planet with an X.

In 1995, two astronomers, also at Geneva, spotted the first extrasolar planet, a term for a planet orbiting a star other than our own. Since then, 227 such planets have been spotted, according to the Extrasolar Planets Encyclopaedia (http://exoplanet.eu/).Gliese 581 is among the 100 closest stars to us. Its red dwarf monicker comes from the fact that it is only one-third of the mass of the Sun.

Because such stars emit far less heat, they offer a far greater chance of having planets in the so-called Goldilocks zone where liquid water and thus the potential for life can exist.The search for extrasolar planets has thrown up very few potential home-from-homes.The finds are typically uninhabitable, gassy giant planets, rather than small rocky ones. Or they orbit so close to their star that their atmosphere is stripped away by solar radiation or, alternatively, at such a distance that they are ice balls.

Two years ago, the same ESO team found a Neptune-sized planet around Gliese 581, and their observations that time gave them a hint that a smaller planet, closer to Earth in size, might also encircle the star.Not only did they find the super-Earth, they also found indications of another planet, eight times the size of Earth, that completes an orbit in 84 days a discovery that makes Gliese 581 quite a remarkable system, ESO said.The discovery is being reported in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics.It came thanks to a highly sensitive instrument at ESO's facility at Silla, Chile. The detection technique works by measuring the so-called radial velocity of the star. A planet orbiting around a star produces changes in the star's position relative to Earth. This causes a measurable wobble in the starlight, from which the orbiting object and its size can be inferred. Even though Gliese 581 offers such promise, it would be impossible for mankind to reach it or even send an unmanned scout probe using current technology. Chemical rockets generate only a fraction of the light speed needed to get there within a human timescale.

WELL IS THIS NOT INTERESTING THE EU WANTS ROYAL TO WIN THE FRENCH ELECTION JUST LIKE I FIGURE TO KEEP THE EU A GODLESS DICTATORSHIP LIKE THE BIBLE SAYS IT HAS TO BE.

EU commissioner backs Royal in French election
24.04.2007 - 15:54 CET | By Honor Mahony


EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - Although Brussels is formally keeping quiet on who it would like to see win the French elections, certain individual commissioners have been less discreet.Margot Wallstrom, the EU communications commissioner, has made an all-out plug for socialist candidate Segolene Royal in her blog.In an entry posted on Monday, the day after presidential elections that saw Ms Royal go through to the second round run-off on 6 May against Nicolas Sarkozy, the commissioner wrote that she cheered the achievements of her fellow socialist politician.Continuing her blog in French, Ms Wallstrom says that maybe more than anything else, I was so happy to see that a woman will take part in the second round of the presidential elections.

Noting that there are women ministers in several governments, particularly in Finland, she emphasizes that this is the first time a woman has made it through to the second round in France.

It's historic and I wanted, as a woman involved in politics, to pay homage to Segolene Royal and wish her good luck for what comes.A spokesperson said her comments were personal but they reflect the increasing trend towards politicisation of the European Commission.Dutch commissioner Neelie Kroes sparked criticism in 2005 when just days before the elections, she openly supported Angela Merkel to become chancellor of Germany.In addition, blogs also raise the question of where the line is drawn between the personal and the public. Last year, Ms Wallstrom's comments in her blog in support of scrapping the European Parliament's seat in Strasbourg were widely reported as news.

Not above a little politics

In previous years, the commission and its commissioners often ex-politicians themselves tended to keep a distance between Brussels and national politics, hovering somewhat above the domestic fray.

The treaty itself says that commissioners should be impartial and work for the European cause, stipulating they must be completely independent in the performance of their duties in the general interest of the European community. But as the European Union has evolved, the commission has sought to rebrand itself as more of a political entity. This is partially as a reaction to its own commissioners, some of whom have found the corridors of power in the commission stultifying when compared to the cut and thrust of domestic politics.At the moment, Louis Michel, the EU's commissioner for development, is on unpaid leave because he is taking part in Belgium's federal elections.

During the last commission Italian prime minister Romano Prodi actively campaigned in the general elections in Italy while still head of the Brussels executive and Greek commissioner Anna Diamantopoulou also took a leave of absence for domestic elections and then resigned after winning a seat.

The commission says this is part and parcel of the job, that its commissioners are politicians and that they do not exist in a vacuum.Its revised code of conduct for commissioners allows them to be active members of political parties or trade unions. If they are to play an active role in an election campaign they have to withdraw from the work of the commission for the duration of the campaign.

Some also say, including Mr Michel himself, that it is part of reconnecting with Europe's citizens.But critics argue the practice undermines both the commission and the portfolio concerned. For their part, MEPs in the development committee have asked for a legal opinion on Mr Michel's electioneering, saying it violates the EU's treaty.He is expected to be called before the MEPs at the beginning of next month to justify why he should be able to remain as commissioner when running in the 10 June
elections.

I DON'T KNOW IF THIS WALL WILL COME DOWN IN IRAQ, BUT IN ISRAEL THE BIBLE SAYS THE WALLS WILL BE COMING DOWN WHEN THE EU SECURES ISRAELS SECURITY FOR A LAND TRADEOFF. WHICH SEEMS TO BE COMING TOGETHER QUICK NOW. THE ARABS ARE CRYING FOR THEIR LAND BACK AND ISRAEL IS WILLING TO GIVE UP LAND FOR PEACE. BUT THE FINAL TREATY HAS TO BE A 7 YEAR TREATY IT CAN NOT BE ANYTHING ELSE AND THE EU NOT THE U.S.A WILL BE THE PROTECTOR OF ISRAEL.

WE SEE THE US FADING INTO WORLD DEPLETION THANKS TO THE IRAQ WAR, NOW WE SEE HOW THE EU WILL STEP IN AND BE THE WORLD POWER OF THE WEST AND GUARENTEE ISRAELS SECURITY FOR LAND IN THE PEACE PROCESS BECAUSE THE US IS NOT TRUSTWORTHY ANYMORE OF HANDLING THE WORLDS TROUBLES. TOO MANY LIES ARE COMING FROM THE GOVERNMENT ON BOTH SIDES.


EZEKIEL 38:11-12
11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.(THIS IS WHEN THE RUSSIA,MUSLIM HORDE MARCH TO ISRAEL IN THE FUTURE WHILE ISRAEL IS SECURED BY THE EU).

JOEL 3:2
2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.

ISAIAH 28:14-19 (THIS IS THE 7 YR TREATY COVENANT OF DANIEL 9:27)
14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.

Sadr calls for demonstration By BASSEM MROUE, Associated Press Writer APR 25,07

BAGHDAD - Radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr strongly condemned construction of a wall around a Sunni neighborhood in Baghdad, calling for demonstrations against the plan as a sign of the evil will of American occupiers.The remarks, in a statement read by an aide, were the first by the anti-American cleric since the U.S. military announced last week that it was building a three-mile long 12-foot high concrete wall in Azamiyah, a Sunni stronghold that has been targeted by mortar and rocket attacks by Shiite militiamen.Many Sunnis also protested the plan, saying they felt like they were being herded into a prison. Protesters in Azamiyah carried banners Monday with slogans such as No to the sectarian wall and Azamiyah children want to see Baghdad without walls.In the statement, al-Sadr said the protests showed that Iraqis reject the sectarian, racist and unjust wall that seeks to divide Sunnis and Shiites.I am confident that such honorable voices will bring down the wall, he said.

Al-Sadr, whose Mahdi Army militia was blamed for much of the sectarian killing of Sunnis, has been trying to make overtures to the Sunni minority and draw a difference between ordinary Sunnis and extremists who target Shiites.This wall shows the evil will of the occupier and its sectarian and terrorist projects against our people, al-Sadr said in the statement. We the people of Iraq will defend Azamiyah and other neighborhoods that you (Americans) want to segregate from us.

We will stand hand in hand with you (Sunnis) to demonstrate and protect our holy land.The U.S. and Iraqi military said they plan to construct barriers in other neighborhoods too to protect people from sectarian death squads.A leading Sunni Muslim group accused the Shiite-led government of turning a blind eye to sectarian death squads allegedly run by the Mahdi Army.The return of the militias and death squads to target Sunni areas, the attempts to chain these areas with walls to make them soft targets for militias, and the arrest campaigns against Sunnis, especially mosque imams, are all part of a plan to empty Baghdad of Sunnis, the Conference for the People of Iraq said in a statement.The group, which is led by prominent Sunni politician Adnan al-Dulaimi, called on the government to stop what it called sectarian projects that target Sunnis, warning our patience is running out.

On Sunday, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said he would not allow a separation wall, but then he said that the subject would be discussed. He said he would not rule out all barriers, such as barbed wire.

Following al-Maliki's comments, the new American ambassador to Iraq, Ryan Crocker, defended the barrier plan, saying it was an effort to protect the Sunni community from surrounding Shiite areas, not to segregate it. Crocker said security measures were implemented in coordination with the Iraqi government.Obviously, we will respect the wishes of the government and the prime minister, he said, although he did not say construction would halt.Iraq's chief military spokesman indicated that some type of barrier would go up, saying al-Maliki was responding to exaggerated reports about the wall.

An aide to al-Sadr, Sheik Salah al-Obaidi, told reporters in the holy Shiite city of Najaf that they plan two demonstrations in eastern and western Baghdad to condemn the wall. He did not give a date for the demonstrations but said that if the security situation permits, al-Sadr's followers will be happy to join demonstrators in Azamiyah.The U.S. military has said that al-Sadr is currently in neighboring Iran, a claim that his aides denied in the past week saying he is in Iraq.Al-Obaidi said al-Sadr's disappearance is for security reasons and ... it is not necessary to know where he is. Sayyed Muqtada is with the people and feels their suffering.The Mahdi Army, that launched two uprising against U.S. troops in 2004, has been one of the main targets of a security plan in Baghdad launched two months ago. Last week, al-Sadr ordered his six Cabinet ministers to leave the government after al-Maliki refused to put a timetable for foreign troops withdrawal.
