Alaska's Mount Redoubt has another large eruption APR 4,09

ANCHORAGE, Alaska – The Mount Redoubt volcano in Alaska has had another large eruption after being relatively quiet for nearly a week.The Alaska Volcano Observatory in Anchorage says the volcano about 100 mile southwest of the city erupted early Saturday.The National Weather Service said radar indicated a plume of volcanic ash rose 50,000 feet into the sky, making this one of the largest eruptions since the volcano became active on March 22.The ash cloud was drifting toward the southeast and there were reports of the fine, gritty ash falling in towns on the Kenai Peninsula.

Midwesterners hope to find cash for flood fixes By MATTHEW BROWN and DAVE KOLPACK, Associated Press Writers – Fri Apr 3, 6:53 pm ET

FARGO, N.D. – Still soggy from surging floodwaters, weary residents and elected officials in the Midwest already are clamoring to bulk up the region's patchwork flood control system — hoping that they won't be so dependent on sandbags and sweat the next time around.Among the projects being pushed are a massive diversion to steer the Red River around populated areas, taller and more extensive dikes and water retention gates scattered across thousands of square miles of farmland.But tight economic times could sink the most promising solutions. The price tag on projects in the Fargo area alone could hit $2 billion, and most are unlikely to qualify for federal stimulus money because details of the projects have not been worked out. Also, critics of floodwalls point to Hurricane Katrina's failed levees and overtopped dikes in Grand Forks, N.D., in 1997 as evidence that dikes alone will never be enough.

Grand Forks has since raised its dikes, sparing the city so far, but researchers point to evidence of historical floods that would have topped even those defenses.

Public officials said now is the time to get new projects moving — before the nation's attention moves on from the region's latest woes.The memory is not very long,said Paul Todhunter, a University of North Dakota geology professor.Even as officials weigh their options, Fargo is already staring down a second potentially dangerous crest this month. The National Weather Service on Friday gave a 75 percent chance the Red would hit 41 feet or more. Sandbag dikes in Fargo and neighboring Moorhead, Minn., are being left in place at 43 feet.This is enough. We need to get ahead of this so it doesn't happen again, said U.S. Rep. Collin Peterson, a Minnesota Democrat representing parts of the Red River basin.North Dakota Gov. John Hoeven and Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty said Friday they would press the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to finish a study of Red River flood protection earlier than December 2010.

Aaron Snyder, a Corps project manager, said it would be difficult to speed up an already aggressive schedule.The Corps is due to release a preliminary flood control proposal next month that looks at a diversion project for the Red River in combination with levees. The final cost could range from $800 million to $2 billion, Snyder said.Snyder declined to offer specifics, but said the proposal would be limited to the area around Fargo and Moorhead — a small piece of a 45,000-square-mile river basin that stretches from South Dakota to Manitoba. The pancake-flat, clay basin is slow to soak up water — making it exceptionally flood-prone.In outlying communities within the basin, some residents worry they'll be left out if the Corps adopts a dikes-only approach centered on metropolitan Fargo.In Briarwood, a hamlet just south of Fargo's city limits, 18 of 27 homes took on water during the recent flooding. John Adams, 62, a developer who stayed behind to fight the rising waters, said even more houses would have been swamped if not for round-the-clock sandbagging by a handful of homeowners.For 12 years we've been having a debate about diversions or dikes,Adams said. You know what they say about what kind of dikes are out there? The ones that have failed and the ones that are going to fail.Snyder said a dikes-only plan was possible but a combination plan was more likely.

After the region's last catastrophic flood season, in the spring of 1997, more than a billion dollars were spent on efforts to tame the river. That included more than $400 million for new flood walls in Grand Forks and $665 million for a diversion canal in Winnipeg, Manitoba, to steer floodwaters around the city of 650,000.Copying either of those projects could prove difficult for Fargo and Moorhead. Building Grand Forks' floodwalls required the taking of 800 residential properties. Most of the seized Grand Forks properties had been severely damaged in the 1997 flood, but riverfront property in Fargo and Moorhead generally suffered less damage — meaning homeowners could be reluctant to leave. Many of the people have money and influence. They're not going to roll over and play dead,UND's Todhunter said. Similarly, a diversion would require the taking of agricultural land in an area that boasts some of the most expensive farmland in the world. Other diversions have caused problems with water that stacks up where it rejoins the main stem of a river, a potential threat to surrounding communities. One basin-wide idea receiving attention is a proposal out of the UND known as the Waffle Plan.It calls for using roads in rural areas as makeshift dikes during the spring snowmelt. Gates installed on culverts that pass underneath the roads could be closed when rivers start to swell — effectively turning sections of land into retaining ponds until the flooding threat recedes and the water can be released.Gerry Groenewold, director of UND's Energy and Environmental Research Center, said the upfront costs would be about $50 million. However, tens of millions more might be needed to pay farmers some kind of rent to allow water to sit on their land during flood season.That compares with an estimated $100 million in damages from this year's floods and Grand Forks' staggering $1.5 billion toll from the 1997 flood.

They're so accustomed to dikes, they don't want change,Groenewold said of opponents to his plan.As my father used to say, the only person who likes a change is a wet baby.

Study: Arctic sea ice melting faster than expected By RANDOLPH E. SCHMID, AP Science Writer – Fri Apr 3, 1:03 am ET

WASHINGTON – Arctic sea ice is melting so fast most of it could be gone in 30 years. A new analysis of changing conditions in the region, using complex computer models of weather and climate, says conditions that had been forecast by the end of the century could occur much sooner.A change in the amount of ice is important because the white surface reflects sunlight back into space. When ice is replaced by dark ocean water that sunlight can be absorbed, warming the water and increasing the warming of the planet.The finding adds to concern about climate change caused by human activities such as burning fossil fuels, a problem that has begun receiving more attention in the Obama administration and is part of the G20 discussions under way in London.Due to the recent loss of sea ice, the 2005-2008 autumn central Arctic surface air temperatures were greater than 5 degrees Celsius (9 degrees Fahrenheit) above what would be expected, the new study reports.

That amount of temperature increase had been expected by the year 2070.

The new report by Muyin Wang of the Joint Institute for the Study of Atmosphere and Ocean and James E. Overland of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory, appears in Friday's edition of the journal Geophysical Research Letters.They expect the area covered by summer sea ice to decline from about 2.8 million square miles normally to 620,000 square miles within 30years.Last year's summer minimum was 1.8 million square miles in September, second lowest only to 2007 which had a minimum of 1.65 million square miles, according to the National Snow and Ice Data Center.The Center said Arctic sea ice reached its winter maximum for this year at 5.8 million square miles on Feb. 28. That was 278,000 square miles below the 1979-2000 average making it the fifth lowest on record. The six lowest maximums since 1979 have all occurred in the last six years.Overland and Wang combined sea-ice observations with six complex computer models used by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change to reach their conclusions. Combining several computer models helps avoid uncertainties caused by natural variability.Much of the remaining ice would be north of Canada and Greenland, with much less between Alaska and Russia in the Pacific Arctic.The Arctic is often called the Earth's refrigerator because the sea ice helps cool the planet by reflecting the sun's radiation back into space,Wang said in a statement.With less ice, the sun's warmth is instead absorbed by the open water, contributing to warmer temperatures in the water and the air.The study was supported by the NOAA Climate Change Program Office, the Institute for the Study of the Ocean and Atmosphere and the U.S. Department of Energy.

Woman fires on police station in southern Israel By DIAA HADID, Associated Press Writer – Sat Apr 4, 8:56 am ET

JERUSALEM – A woman opened fire on a police station in southern Israel Saturday before officers shot back and killed her, in an apparent Palestinian militant attack.

The shooting took place near the desert town of Beersheba, police spokesman Moshe Fintzy said. The woman fired at a paramilitary police post but did not hit anyone before she was gunned down, he said. Authorities have not yet identified the woman, but police said the shooting appeared to be a militant attack.If so it would mark the second attack of the week and pose an early test for the new, hard-line government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Netanyahu has promised a firm hand against Palestinian militants and lowered expectations on prospects for peace.On Thursday, a day after the prime minister took office, a Palestinian killed an Israeli teenager with a pickax and seriously injured a 7-year-old boy in a rampage through a West Bank Jewish settlement.Sporadic violence along the border with Gaza also threatens to re-ignite clashes after Israel's three-week offensive in the territory earlier this year.

Israeli forces shot and killed two militants who were approaching the Gaza border on Saturday, Palestinian medics and the Israeli military said.The military said the two men were armed and Israeli forces entered Gaza and fired on them.Elsewhere in Gaza, militants fired at least two mortar shells toward Israel, the army and militants said. There were no reports of damage.Violence has been sporadic since Israel halted its assault on Gaza in late January that was meant to stop rocket attacks from the coastal territory at nearby Israeli communities. There are fears, however, that occasional attacks could develop into larger clashes between Israel and Palestinian militants.Associated Press Writer Ibrahim Barzak in Gaza City contributed to this report.

11 bodies found in Mexico, some with torture signs APR 4,09

MORELIA, Mexico – Eleven people were found shot to death around Mexico on Saturday, some bearing signs of torture and left with threatening messages emblematic of drug violence.Four of the victims were found in a car in the western city of Apatzingan, along with a message threatening the Zetas, a group of hitmen for the Gulf cartel. The message was signed La Familia, a drug gang battling for territory in western Michoacan state.Another slain man was found in the western port city of Lazaro Cardenas, also with a threatening message from La Familia to the Zetas.A sixth man was found on a highway in the city of Morelia. He had been shot in the head three times and left with a T-shirt pulled over his head and his hands handcuffed behind his back. A seventh was found shot to death in the town of Tacambaro.La Familia was once considered aligned with the powerful Gulf cartel, but it was named as a separate gang in a government list of most-wanted drug trafficking suspects released last month.President Felipe Calderon's government has attributed fractures in the cartels to a military crackdown, saying the arrest of drug kingpins has set off internal battles for control that have led to Mexico's sharp surge in drug-related violence.

Four other bodies were found around the southern Pacific coast state of Guerrero, including two men left in the trunk of a car in the resort town of Zihuatanejo. The two were blindfolded and had their hands tied behind their backs, according to a police report.Another man was found burned on a highway linking Mexico City to the resort city of Acapulco and a fourth died in a shootout in the city of Chilpancingo.
Mexico's drug violence has killed some 9,000 people since 2006.

Gunman lying in wait kills 3 Pittsburgh officers By RAMIT PLUSHNICK-MASTI and DAN NEPHIN, Associated Press Writers APR 4,09

PITTSBURGH – A gunman wearing a bulletproof vest and lying in wait opened fire on officers responding to a domestic disturbance call Saturday, killing three of them and turning a quiet Pittsburgh street into a battlefield, police said.Police Chief Nate Harper said the motive for the shooting isn't clear, but friends said the gunman recently had been upset about losing his job and feared the Obama administration was poised to ban guns.Richard Poplawski, 23, met officers at the doorway and shot two of them in the head immediately, Harper said. An officer who tried to help the two also was killed.Poplawski, armed with an assault rifle and two other guns, then held police at bay for four hours as the fallen officers were left bleeding nearby, their colleagues unable to reach them, according to police and witnesses. More than 100 rounds were fired by the SWAT teams and Poplawski, Harper said.The three slain officers were Eric Kelly, Stephen Mayhle and Paul Sciullo III. Kelly had been on the force for 14 years, Mayhle and Sciullo for two years each. Another officer was shot in the hand and a fifth broke his leg on a fence.Poplawski had gunshot wounds in his legs but was otherwise unharmed because he was wearing a bulletproof vest, Harper said. He was charged with three counts of homicide, aggravated assault and a weapons violation.The shooting occurred just two weeks after four police officers were fatally shot in Oakland, Calif., in the deadliest day for U.S. law enforcement since Sept. 11, 2001. The officers were the first Pittsburgh city officers to die in the line of duty in 18 years.

This is a solemn day and it's a very sad day in the city of Pittsburgh, Harper said. We've seen this kind of violence happen in California. We never would think this kind of violence would happen in the city of Pittsburgh.At 7 a.m., Sciullo and Mayhle responded to a 911 call from Poplawski's mother, who remained holed up in the basement during the entire dispute and escaped unharmed, Harper said.When they arrived at the home, Sciullo was immediately shot in the head. Mayhle, who was right behind him, was also shot in the head.It appears he was lying in wait for the officers,Harper said.Kelly, who was on his way home after completing his overnight shift when he heard the call for help, rushed to the scene and was killed trying to help Sciullo and Mayhle, Harper said. SWAT teams and other officers arrived and were immediately fired on as well.Don Sand, who lives across the street from Poplawski, said he was woken up by the sound of gunfire. Hunkering down behind a wall in his home, he saw the first two officers go down and then saw Kelly get shot.They couldn't get the scene secure enough to get to them. They were just lying there bleeding, Sand said.By the time they secured the scene enough to get to them it was way too late.

Poplawski feared the Obama gun ban that's on the way and didn't like our rights being infringed upon,said Edward Perkovic, his best friend.Perkovic, 22, said he got a call at work from him in which he said, Eddie, I am going to die today. ... Tell your family I love them and I love you.Perkovic said: I heard gunshots and he hung up. ... He sounded like he was in pain, like he got shot.Poplawski had once tried to join the Marines, but was kicked out of boot camp after throwing a food tray at a drill sergeant, Perkovic said. Another longtime friend, Aaron Vire, said Poplawski feared that President Barack Obama was going to take away his rights, though he said he wasn't violently against Obama.Vire, 23, said Poplawski once had an Internet talk show but that it wasn't successful. He said Poplawski owned an AK-47 rifle and several powerful handguns, including a .357 Magnum. Another friend, Joe DiMarco, said Poplawski had been laid off from his job at a glass factory earlier this year. DiMarco said he didn't know the name of the company, but knew his friend had been upset about it. The last Pittsburgh police officers killed in the line of duty were Officers Thomas L. Herron and Joseph J. Grill, according to a Web site that tracks police killings. They died after their patrol car collided with another vehicle while chasing a stolen car on March 6, 1991.In 1995, an off-duty officer was shot with his own gun after he confronted a group of teenagers about graffiti. Tests later showed the officer had been drinking. According to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund, 133 law enforcement officers died in the line of duty in 2008, a 27 percent decrease from year before and the lowest annual total since 1960. Poplawski had often fought with neighbors and had even gotten into fist fights with a couple, Sand said.

This is a relatively really quiet neighborhood except for him, Sand said.He was just one of those kids that we knew to stay clear from.Harper confirmed police had responded to calls from the Poplawski house several times but said the incidents were still being investigated. Rob Gift, 45, who lives a block away, said the well-kept single-family houses with manicured lawns are home to many police officers, firefighters, paramedics and other city workers. It's just a very quiet neighborhood, Gift said.

As gunman's life fell apart, he took others' By MICHAEL RUBINKAM, Associated Press Writer APR 4,09

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. — Jiverly Wong was upset over losing his job at a vacuum plant, didn't like people picking on him for his limited English and once angrily told a co-worker, America sucks.It remains unclear exactly why the Vietnamese immigrant strapped on a bulletproof vest, barged in on a citizenship class and killed 13 people and himself, but the police chief says he knows one thing for sure: He must have been a coward.Jiverly Wong had apparently been preparing for a gun battle with police but changed course and decided to turn the gun on himself when he heard sirens approaching, Chief Joseph Zikuski said Saturday.He had a lot of ammunition on him, so thank God before more lives were lost, he decided to do that, the chief said.Police and Wong's acquaintances portrayed him as an angry, troubled man who struggled with drugs and job loss and perhaps blamed his adopted country for his troubles. His rampage was not a surprise to those who knew him, Zikuski said.Wong, who used the alias Jiverly Voong, believed people close to him were making fun of him for his poor English language skills, the chief said. But police said the motive still wasn't clear.Until last month, he had been taking classes at the American Civic Association, which helps immigrants assimilate.Then, on Friday, he parked his car against the back door of the association, burst through the front doors and shot two receptionists, killing one, before moving on to a classroom where he claimed 12 more victims, police said.The police chief said that most of the dead had multiple gunshot wounds. Wong used two handguns for which he had obtained a permit more than a decade ago.The receptionist who survived, 61-year-old Shirley DeLucia, played dead, then called 911 despite her injuries and stayed on the line while the gunman remained in the building.

DeLucia was in critical condition Saturday. The police chief said she and three other shooting victims were all expected to survive.Wong's tactics — including the body armor and copious ammunition — fit him into a category of killers called pseudo-commandos, said Park Dietz, a criminologist and forensic psychiatrist at UCLA who analyzed the Columbine High School shootings in Colorado in 1999.Barricading the back doors to trap his prey was his way of ensuring that he could maximize his kill rate, Dietz said.This was all about anger, paranoia, and desperation.The road that took Wong to his demise in a classroom at the American Civic Association in downtown Binghamton began 41 years ago and half a world away in Vietnam, where he was born into an ethnically Chinese family.He moved to the States in the early 1990s and soon afterward became a citizen, friends and relatives said. He worked at IBM for a time, friend Hue Huynh said, but decided to move to California.There, he worked for seven years at a caterer called Kikka Sushi, eventually making $9 an hour, said Paulus Lukas, the company's human resources manager.He was really good at doing his job — we respected him for that,Lukas told the Los Angeles Times. He's never late, he's always punctual. And when he finishes his job, he goes home. He doesn't complain, he doesn't argue with people. He gets along.But one day he simply didn't show up for work, Lukas told the Times. Early last year, he called asking the company to send his tax forms to a New York state address.

Back in New York, he apparently worked at the Shop-Vac plant in Binghamton. Former co-worker Kevin Greene told the Daily News of New York that Wong once said, in answer to whether he liked the New York Yankees, No, I don't like that team. I don't like America. America sucks.The plant closed in November, and Wong was out of a job. That's apparently when things really started to go downhill. People who end up doing this particular thing have an accumulation of stressers in their lives, and ultimately there is the one that broke the camel's back,Dietz said. Job loss is one of the big ones, and those stressers are happening more often this year.Huynh, the 56-year-old proprietor of an Asian grocery store in Binghamton frequented by the gunman's sister, ran into Wong at the gym recently and noted that he was complaining about how he couldn't find work. His unemployment benefits were only $200 a week, and he lamented his bad luck, she said.He's upset he don't have a job here. He come back and want to work,Huynh said. Her husband tried to cheer him up by saying that he was still young and had plenty of time to find work. Wong's story is similar to how friends were describing the recent trials of a man accused of opening fire on Pittsburgh police officers during a domestic dispute Saturday, killing three of them. They said he had recently been upset about losing his job; police say that, like Wong, he was wearing a bulletproof vest. The Binghamton police chief said Saturday that those who were close to Wong weren't surprised to see his eventual meltdown. A woman reached at the home who identified herself as Wong's sister told The Associated Press late Friday she did not believe he was the gunman. I think somebody involved, not him,she said.

That's not an unusual response, Dietz said.

What will be revealed if the investigation goes deep enough is that many people in a shooter's world knew that he was angry, mad, unreasonable, scary at times, and recently some of them came to learn that he was threatening and armed,said Dietz, who is not involved in the Binghamton investigation.They've known that for a long time, but none of them did what they should have done with that information.State police got tips suggesting that Wong may have been planning a bank robbery in 1999, possibly to support a crack-cocaine addiction, Zikuski said. But the robbery never happened, and Zikuski had no other information. Wong's father was well-known in the Binghamton area through his work years ago at the now-defunct World Relief Organization, helping recent immigrants find a doctor and obtain food stamps. Everyone, when they come to America, he's the one who helps,said Ty Tran, who came to the United States in 1990.

Mark Preston, 48, a neighbor of the gunman in Johnson City, outside Binghamton, said people in the family keep to themselves but often tended the bushes in their yard.
They grow great vegetables and roses,he said. Associated Press writers John Wawrow in Buffalo, N.Y., and John Kekis in Binghamton contributed to this report.

DANIEL 7:23-25
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.

DANIEL 12:4,1
4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

REVELATION 13:1-3,7,8,12,16-18
1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

REVELATION 17:3,7,9-10,12,18
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

A NEW WORLD ORDER BY BROWN AFTER G-20 MEETINGS

G20 summit: Gordon Brown announces new world order,Gordon Brown announced the creation of a new world order after the conclusion of the G20 summit of world leaders in London. By Andrew Porter, Robert Winnett and Toby Harnden Last Updated: 8:21AM BST 03 Apr 2009

The Prime Minister claimed to have struck a historic deal to end the global recession as he unveiled plans to plough more than $1 trillion into the world economy.This is the day that the world came together to fight back against the global recession,he said. Not with words but with a plan for global recovery and reform. G20 communiqué: Full version agreed by world leaders Barack Obama, the US President, hailed the deal as a turning point for the global economy which would put it on the path to recovery. However, critics pointed out Mr Brown had been unable to secure agreement on a new co-ordinated fiscal stimulus package that he and Mr Obama had been urging. The Prime Minister has staked his political future on securing a deal at the summit. Under the $1.1 trillion (£750 billion) agreement, which followed several days of intense negotiation, struggling economies will be offered money provided to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) by wealthier nations. The G20 leaders also agreed restrictions on bankers’ pay, rules to target tax havens and hedge funds and a new financial early warning system to prevent a future economic meltdown. Today’s decisions, of course, will not immediately solve the crisis. But we have begun the process by which it will be solved,Mr Brown said. I think a new world order is emerging with the foundation of a new progressive era of international co-operation,

Following the announcement of the deal at the ExCeL conference centre in London’s Docklands, the FTSE share index closed up more than four per cent. Other stock markets around the world also rose sharply. The conclusion of the summit also coincided with the release of figures that suggested the British economy could be starting to recover. House prices have risen and the Bank of England claims that lending to businesses has improved. Mr Brown’s delight at securing the agreement — which had been under threat from Nicolas Sarkozy, the French President, and Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor — was evident. The success was echoed by Mr Obama. By any measure the London summit was historic, he said. It was historic because of the size and the scope of the challenges that we face and because of the timeliness and magnitude of our response.Mr Sarkozy, who had threatened to walk out of the talks unless he got action on tax havens, said a page has been turned on the old financial model, the Anglo-Saxon model. One trillion dollars will be made available to the IMF and, in turn, to countries threatened by the downturn. However, Mr Brown made it clear that he did not intend to apply for funds for Britain, despite opponents warning that the country will soon need a bail-out due to the growing deficit in the public finances. Mr Obama, who leaves Britain after a three-day visit on Friday morning, played an important part in brokering the deal, in particular French concerns over the deal on tax havens. A senior White House official said the President took Mr Sarkozy to a corner of the room for a chat. He then acted as a go-between with President Hu Jintao, of China until they both agreed to a solution put forward by Mr Obama. As The Daily Telegraph disclosed on Thursday, a key part of the global rescue package included united action to curb excessive pay to bankers and traders.Downing Street will be relieved that the summit has not proved a failure, despite Mr Brown not securing some of his earlier objectives, notably a second round of fiscal stimulus.

Obama hails the new world order,Markets soar after President brokers historic G20 deal between world leaders to bring end to recession By Andrew Grice, Nigel Morris and Sean O'Grady Friday, 3 April 2009

AP President Obama hailed the meeting as a turning point in our pursuit of global economic recovery.Gordon Brown declared that a $1 trillion package to stimulate economic growth agreed at yesterday's G20 summit in London will ensure that the world pulls out of recession more quickly.Speaking after the one-day summit of the world's richest nations in the Docklands, the Prime Minister said there were no quick fixes, adding: Today's decisions will not immediately solve the crisis. But we have begun the process by which it will be solved.He said: This is the day that the world came together to fight back against the global recession, not with words, but with a plan for global recovery and for reform and with a clear timetable for its delivery.The US President Barack Obama played a key role in brokering the agreement, resolving tensions between China and France on tax havens.The $1trn will be made available to countries that run into trouble via the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank and World Trade Organisation, which will all be beefed up. Half the money will come from IMF loans, with $250bn to finance trade deals and a further $250bn from the IMF's currency reserve.Mr Brown and President Obama originally wanted the G20 summit to call for higher government spending and tax cuts, but they ran into opposition from European nations, led by Germany and France. However, the summit kept open the option of such action in 2010 if the $5trn fiscal stimulus scheme does not work. The IMF will have a new role in monitoring whether countries are doing enough to help the world economy grow at about 4 per cent a year.G20 leaders will meet again to review progress, probably in New York in September, to coincide with the annual meeting of the United Nations General Assembly.Last night British ministers said the real significance of yesterday's agreement was not the $1trn package but the enhanced role it gave to world institutions like the IMF, whose budget will triple to $750bn. A new world financial order has been born, almost by accident, because of this crisis, one cabinet minister said. These bodies have been revamped; now they need to raise their game.The IMF will no longer be regarded as a last-resort option for nations facing bankruptcy, but will instead take preventative action. Many nations have been reluctant to turn to the fund because the stigma of doing so sends bad signals to the financial markets.

The special drawing rights (SDRs) made available by the IMF – which can be converted by national governments into currency to provide a swift injection of liquidity into their economies – will be increased by a further $250bn. The funds will be used in the short term to support the precarious economies of eastern and central Europe. Romania and Turkey are the latest nations to seek help from the IMF; others in recent months include Ukraine, Pakistan, Iceland and Latvia. The IMF has expressed acute concern that a crisis in these economies could spread via the banks to western European countries.China is playing a notably bigger role, pledging $40bn for the improvement in the IMF's resourcing. Most of the rest comes from the US and Europe. China has publicly called for an increased role for the IMF's own world currency, the SDR. A long-awaited reform of the governance of the IMF should deliver China more votes and influence.Last night President Obama hailed the meeting as a turning point in our pursuit of global economic recovery. He told the press: By any measure, the London summit was historic. It was historic because of the size and the scope of the challenge that we face and because of the timeliness and the magnitude of our response.The President said that former mortal enemies had come together to agree a common path out of recession. I am very proud of what has been done, but this alone is not enough. The actions we take in our individual countries is vital. He added: It's hard for 20 heads of state to bridge their differences. We've all got our own national policies, our own assumptions, and our own politics. But our citizens are hurting – they need us to come together.The 20 leaders also agreed to reform the financial system to prevent a repeat of the crisis. Mr Brown trumpeted the start of the end for tax havens refusing to be transparent about the money they hold; they will be named and shamed.Last night, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development issued a blacklist of four offending countries: Costa Rica, Malaysia, the Philippines and Uruguay. In the run-up to the summit, Switzerland, Austria, Luxembourg, Andorra and Singapore joined a new spirit of openness. Yesterday Brunei and Guatemala agreed to abide by the new rules. The Channel Islands, the Isle of Man and British overseas territories such as the Cayman Islands and British Virgin Islands already comply with the guidelines.

Under yesterday's deal, tax havens would have to open their books to other countries upon request, or face tough sanctions. Banks across the world face a regime of checks to guard against a repeat of the excessive lending that triggered the global financial meltdown.The leaders pledged to give their regulators the powers to collect all the relevant information about banks and to strengthen links between regulators from different countries to pool information about multinational financial institutions. Hedge funds will be brought into the regulatory system. Bankers' pay will reflect long-term performance, not short-term risk-taking.Mr Brown pronounced the free-market consensus was over, hailing a new consensus among the largest countries.From today we will together manage the process of globalisation,he said.On the fiscal stimulus, the Prime Minister insisted: The issues that people thought divided us did not divide us at all. There was substantial agreement on the need for us to do whatever is necessary to return to growth.Nicolas Sarkozy, the French President, who had threatened to walk out if he was not happy with the outcome, said: There were moments of tension. Never would we have thought to get as big an agreement.He praised President Obama for helping to create consensus and persuade China to agree to publish lists of tax havens. Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor, called the measures a very, very good, almost historic compromise that will give the world a clear financial markets architecture. But the anti-poverty campaigner Bob Geldof said: A key question the African delegation is asking is whether this will be real new money for their countries, and will it be grants or expensive loans?

David Cameron, the Tory leader, said: Now the focus should switch back to our domestic economy because small businessmen needing a loan to keep their businesses going are still suffering. And our public finances here in Britain, the level of our deficit, is truly horrific and we need to act on that.

The deal: Key points

Boosting world economy...An extra $1 trillion pumped into the global economy via the International Monetary Fund. IMF reserves increased by $500bn to $750bn. Help for ailing economies...IMF will boost by $250bn the cash countries can access through special drawing rights. It is similar to quantitative easing – printing money.

Cleaning up banks...Greater powers for regulators and strong supervision of multinational institutions. Curbs on pay and bonuses. Hedge funds regulated. Increasing trade....$250bn trade support package offered to developing countries.Tax havens...Must open their books or be named and shamed and face sanctions.Reform of IMF...IMF and the World Bank beefed up. Fast-growing countries gain influence.

Crisis? What crisis? The other good news

The optimism of the G20 summit's conclusion was shared by the markets yesterday. The FTSE 100 index of leading UK shares closed almost 170 points higher at 4124.97. There were similar gains across Europe and in America. There was also some good news for the British economy as the Nationwide building society revealed that house prices rose in March. The increase of 0.9 per cent was the first rise since October 2007.

How to Put the Great into a Depression
by Bill Bonner London, England

The facts are extravagant enough; the theories take our breath away

The Great Depression in the United States, wrote Milton Friedman, ...is a testament to how much harm can be done by mistakes on the part of a few men when they wield vast power over the monetary system of a country.What a wonderful time to be alive! We get to see things we had only read about in the history books...such as a Great Depression. A depression, of course, is a natural and recurring feature of capitalism. But a Great Depression usually requires lobbying.The grubby facts are not in dispute and are hardly worth recalling. The Fed dumped on the fertilizer. Asset prices grew like weeds. Investors got carried away. Consumers let themselves go. Wall Street and the City lost their heads.Then, the capitalists lost their money. Big deal. That's the way it's supposed to work. Capitalism is inherently dynamic and unstable...full of sturm and drang, boom and bust, creativity and destruction. It's always prone to blow itself up just when people count on it most.As for the present crisis, even a central banker could have seen it coming. When you lend money to people who can't pay it back, you have to expect trouble. But that doesn't stop capitalists from whining to the authorities when trouble comes. Half fool, half-knave, governments mobilized; $14 trillion, or thereabouts, has been put up to prevent capitalism from correcting itself. Protectionism is on the increase - even while heads of state rail against it. Banks have been bailed out. In Europe they are shortening the life expectancy of automobiles. In America, the feds are effectively running the largest automobile industry...the largest insurer...and the largest mortgage finance business too. Soon, they may have a chain of hamburger joints. More mistakes...more chicanery - in other words, just what you'd expect.

Even their supposed friends say free markets have been exposed as a failure and a mountebank. That is why the G20 met in London yesterday - they are meant to decide what to do about it. Peter Thal Larsen in the Financial Times:The global financial system as we know it was forged by deregulation underpinned by a belief in free markets. That approach failed. The task now is to prove it can be set running again with better brakes and steering... By the end of the week, the world will have a clearer idea whether the system can survive.William Pesek at Bloomberg: There's no doubt the world that Reagan envisioned didn't work out. The Washington Consensus of free markets, small government and unfettered globalization that characterized the 1990s also is over.Capitalism is inherently dynamic and unstable...full of sturm and drang, boom and bust, creativity and destruction. It’s always prone to blow itself up just when people count on it most.Meanwhile, over in the other camp, they are sitting around open fires...realizing that they are lost in the woods. The Nation magazine has a feature on Re-imagining Socialism,in which Barbara Ehrenreich and Bill Fletcher write: Do we have a plan, people? Can we see our way out of this and into a just, democratic, sustainable (add your own favorites adjectives) future? Let's just put it right out on the table: we don't.With no ideas from the usual do-gooders...the world turns its lonely eyes in a novel direction. Who can save capitalism? The communists!

Market forces, if left unchecked, will lead to asset bubbles and ultimately a disastrous market clearing in the form of a financial crisis like the current one, says a report from the Chinese central bank.Everyone wants to be Chinese. Because the Chinese have money. And because they don't have free markets. It is widely believed that the Middle Kingdom can more effectively fight a downturn without democratic, consensus-driven institutions staying its hand.But here is where we gasp for air. What theory holds that central planning - whether by Chinese communists or American Democrats - can do a better job of allocating capital than the people who own it?

There is none. That is why the world's leaders - and most of its economists too - permit themselves a luscious fib; they say they don't need theory at all. Pragmatism was the word on every pair of lips in London this week. Free from chains to dead economists, they say they will try whatever works. Oh, the loveable lunkheads! Naïve enough to believe anything; receptive as a trashcan. Pragmatism in economics is as phony as the men who preach it. Every one of them has a dog-eared copy of Keynes' General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money in his briefcase and an ace up his sleeve. And every supposedly new, pragmatic idea they come up with is merely a version of the same quack cures that kept the economy in the hospital last time.

Perhaps you can paint a bridge pragmatically. If you don't like the color, you can change it quickly. But if you're building a bridge, an airplane or an economic system, you can't make it up as you go along. You have to have an idea of how it works before you start. Besides, results from fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies don't happen overnight. The feedback loop takes years. It took the Bolsheviks seven decades before they realized they'd been had. Friedman's critique of America's Great Depression policies didn't appear until 30 years after the event. In Japan, they still don't know what they did wrong. And by the time the feds catch on this time, they will have turned an ordinary depression into a great one.

Enjoy your weekend,Bill Bonner The Daily Reckoning

THE ROADMAP TEXT
http://www.mfa.gov.il/MFA/Peace+Process/Guide+to+the+Peace+Process/A+Performance-Based+Roadmap+to+a+Permanent+Two-Sta.htm

Statement by incoming Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman at the ministerial inauguration ceremony 1 Apr 2009

We will honor all the agreements and all the undertakings of previous governments and act exactly according to the Road Map.Good afternoon, honorable outgoing Foreign Minister, honorable outgoing Deputy Foreign Minister, incoming Deputy Foreign Minister, Director-General Ministry employees, honored guests,When my fellow students and I studied international relations, and learned what an international system is, we learned that there is a State and there are international organizations and all kinds of global economic corporations. Things have changed since then and, unfortunately, in the modern system, there are countries that are semi-states. It is hard to call a country like Somalia a state in the full sense of the word and the same holds true for the various autonomies in Eastern Europe, in the Balkans and here as well. It is even hard to call a country like Iraq a state in the full sense of the word. And even worse, there are now international players that are irrational, like the Al Qaeda organization. And we can certainly also ask if the leader of a strong and important country like Iran is a rational player. In my view, we must explain to the world that the priorities of the international community must change, and that all the previous benchmarks - the Warsaw Pact, the NATO Alliance, socialist countries, capitalist countries - have changed. There is a world order that the countries of the free world are trying to preserve, and there are forces, or countries or extremist entities that are trying to violate it.The claim that what is threatening the world today is the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a way of evading reality. The reality is that the problems are coming from the direction of Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran and Iraq.

What is important is to maintain global and regional stability. Egypt is definitely an important country in the Arab world, a stabilizing factor in the regional system and perhaps even beyond that, and I certainly view it as an important partner. I would be happy to visit Egypt and to host Egyptian leaders here, including the Egyptian Foreign Minister - all based on mutual respect.I think that we have been disparaging many concepts, and we have shown the greatest distain of all for the word peace.The fact that we say the word peace twenty times a day will not bring peace any closer. There have been two governments here that took far-reaching measures: the Sharon government and the Olmert government. They took dramatic steps and made far-reaching proposals. We saw the Disengagement and the Annapolis Conference. Yisrael Beiteinu was not then part of the coalition, Avigdor Liberman was not the foreign minister and, even if we had wanted to, we would have been unable to prevent peace. But none of these far-reaching measures have brought peace. To the contrary. We have seen that, after all the gestures that we made, after all the dramatic steps we took and all the far-reaching proposals we presented, in the past few years this country has gone through the Second War in Lebanon and Operation Cast Lead - and not because we chose to. I have not seen peace here. It is precisely when we made all the concessions that I saw the Durban Conference, I saw two countries in the Arab world suddenly sever relations, recalling their ambassadors - Mauritania and Qatar. Qatar suddenly became extremist. We are also losing ground every day in public opinion. Does anyone think that concessions and constantly saying I am prepared to concede, and using the word peace will lead to anything? No, that will just invite pressure, and more and more wars. Si vis pacem, para bellum - if you want peace, prepare for war; be strong.

We definitely want peace, but the other side also bears responsibility. We have proven our desire for peace more than any other country in the world. No country has made concessions the way Israel has. Since 1977, we have given up areas of land three times the size of the State of Israel. So we have proven the point. The Oslo process began in 1993. Sixteen years have passed since then, and I do not see that we are any closer to a permanent settlement. There is one document that binds us and it is not the Annapolis Conference. That has no validity. When we drafted the basic government policy guidelines, we certainly stated that we would honor all the agreements and all the undertakings of previous governments. The continuity of government is respected in Israel. I voted against the Road Map, but that was the only document approved by the Cabinet and by the Security Council - I believe it was Resolution 1505. It is a binding resolution and it binds this government as well.The Israeli government never approved Annapolis, neither the Cabinet nor the Knesset, so anyone who wants to amuse himself can continue to do so. I have seen all the proposals made so generously by Ehud Olmert, but I have not seen any results. So we will therefore act exactly according to the Road Map, including the Tenet document and the Zinni document. I will never agree to our waiving all the clauses - I believe there are 48 of them - and going directly to the last clause, negotiations on a permanent settlement. No. These concessions do not achieve anything. We will adhere to it to the letter, exactly as written. Clauses one, two, three, four - dismantling terrorist organizations, establishing an effective government, making a profound constitutional change in the Palestinian Authority. We will proceed exactly according to the clauses. We are also obligated to implement what is required of us in each clause, but so is the other side. They must implement the document in full, including - as I said - the Zinni document and the Tenet document. I am not so sure that the Palestinian Authority or even we - in those circles that espouse peace so much - are aware of the existence of the Tenet and Zinni documents.When was Israel at its strongest in terms of public opinion around the world? After the victory of the Six Day War, not after all the concessions in Oslo Accords I, II, III and IV. Anyone who wants to maintain his status in public opinion must understand that if he wants respect, he must first respect himself. I think that, at least from our standpoint, will be our policy.

Europe's Afghan response includes praise, limits By SLOBODAN LEKIC, Associated Press Writer APR 4,09

STRASBOURG, France – European leaders enthusiastically praised President Barack Obama's new Afghan strategy at a NATO summit Saturday but held their ground on a central disagreement and offered only military trainers and extra security forces for upcoming elections.Violent anti-war protests that marred the alliance's 60th anniversary celebrations were a stark reminder that much of Europe has no appetite for the other, costlier half of Obama's Afghan equation: more combat troops.I am pleased that our NATO allies pledged their strong and unanimous support for our new strategy,Obama said.We'll need more resources and a sustained effort to achieve our ultimate goals.As protesters battled police outside, NATO risked angering Muslims around the world by giving the post of secretary-general to the prime minister of Denmark, who fueled anger three years ago by backing a Danish newspaper's right to publish cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad. The 28 leaders at the summit also approved measures to repair ties with Russia — virtually frozen since the Russo-Georgian war in August.Afghanistan is seen as a crucial test of the power and relevance of the alliance, which was founded at the height of the Cold War to counterbalance the Soviet Union and now is struggling against a rising insurgency far beyond its borders.

The escalating war has highlighted doubts in Europe about the ability of NATO's 58,000troops to stem the Taliban insurgency. Worries about casualties and costs have contributed to opposition to a conflict many Europeans see as an unnecessary distraction during economic crisis.Despite a security crackdown on both sides of the Franco-German border, thousands of anti-war protesters fought running street battles with police, setting ablaze a hotel and a customs post and forcing the leaders' spouses to cancel a visit to a nearby cancer hospital.During the summit, jointly co-hosted by France and Germany as a symbol of European unity, Obama briefed NATO leaders about his new strategy aimed at stabilizing Afghanistan while rooting out Taliban and al-Qaida hard-liners in both Afghanistan and Pakistan.After the meeting, Obama heralded what he called concrete commitments from NATO allies on Afghanistan, saying their agreement to send up to 5,000 more trainers and police was a strong down payment toward securing the country.

Obama's new strategy has him adding 21,000 U.S. troops to an American force of 38,000.

The White House said NATO countries agreed to send 3,000 personnel on short-term deployments, to help stabilize Afghanistan before elections in August. An additional 1,400 to 2,000 will provide training for Afghanistan's national army.NATO's outgoing Secretary-General Jaap de Hoop Scheffer said the alliance would set up a trust fund for the Afghan National Army, and provide monitoring and liaison teams that would work with Afghanistan's fledgling security forces.The alliance must ensure no more terrorist danger emanates from Afghanistan,German Chancellor Angela Merle said.

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown echoed Obama's argument that Afghanistan was key to Europe's security.Now we are working to build a successful, democratic Afghanistan and that will be that our streets will be safer in Britain,he said.With important presidential elections to come in the next few months we must not allow the Taliban to disrupt the democratic process.It was not immediately clear how the selection of Danish Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen would effect the war effort. Fogh Rasmussen's candidacy for NATO's top civilian post was initially opposed by Turkey, whose leaders pointed out that the choice would antagonize predominantly Muslim Afghanistan and Pakistan.Fogh Rasmussen appeared arrogant to many Muslims, when he refused to apologize for the 12 drawings of the Prophet Muhammad — including one of which showed the prophet wearing a turban shaped as a bomb — that sparked angry protests in 2006 throughout the Middle East and South Asia.NATO said it had agree to address various Turkish concerns.Turkey said its requests had included the closure of a Kurdish satellite television broadcaster based in Denmark; the establishment of contacts between NATO and Islamic countries; appointment of a Turk as an aide to Fogh Rasmussen, and senior NATO command positions for Turkish generals. Fogh Rasmussen denied making undue concessions to the Turks, and pledged to improve relations between NATO and the Muslim world.I will make a very clear outreach to the Muslim world and do my utmost to ensure a positive cooperation and intensified dialogue with Muslim countries,he told a news conference after the summit. Nine months after relations frayed over Moscow's invasion of Georgia, Russia has become an important element in NATO's Afghan war plans. Repeated Taliban attacks on NATO logistics convoys in Pakistan have made southern resupply of the international forces in landlocked Afghanistan increasingly hazardous. Moscow, which also worries about the spread of Islamic fundamentalism in Central Asia, has offered its road and rail network as an alternate overland supply route.

A summit statement said leaders decided to resume the work of the NATO-Russia Council — a joint body whose work was suspended after the war in Georgia. It said a meeting with Russia's foreign minister would be held soon. The alliance also officially recognized France's return to full participation on NATO's military councils after a 43-year absence, and welcomed Albania and Croatia as its newest members.Looking to the future, the leaders issued a declaration Saturday that formally launches the creation of a new strategic concept or road map to define NATO's roles, missions and way of functioning. It would be the first such revision of the alliance's purpose and function since 1999.
