UK's Labour backs down on vote on scrapping nuclear weapons-Associated Press By JILL LAWLESS-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
LONDON (AP) — Britain's Labour Party has decided to leave the country's nuclear weapons alone.The opposition party's new leader, Jeremy Corbyn, opposes atomic weapons, and had said the issue would be debated at the party's annual conference, which opened Sunday.But after Labour-supporting trade unions said they would vote to keep nuclear weapons and protect thousands of defense jobs, delegates dropped the issue from the conference agenda.It's a setback for left-winger Corbyn, who wants the party to consider policies long considered off the political agenda, from nationalizing industry to diverging on foreign policy from the U.S.He said earlier Sunday that Britain should get rid of its "weapon of mass destruction" and scrap the Trident nuclear program.Britain has been a nuclear power since the 1950s, and both Labour and Conservative governments have consistently supported atomic weapons. Since the 1990s, Britain's nuclear deterrent has consisted of four Royal Navy submarines armed with Trident missiles.News that Trident would be debated at the conference for the first time in many years had been hailed as a victory by anti-nuclear activists — but caused despair for Labour centrists, who fear the party faces electoral oblivion under Corbyn.John McTernan, a former aide to Prime Minister Tony Blair, argued that nuclear weapons are "deeply and broadly supported" by British voters."So to make the centerpiece of your first conference a turn towards unilateralism is a resounding signal to the public that you don't want to be a party of government," he said.A vote to get rid of Trident would also have opened a rift between Corbyn and many Labour lawmakers, who support retaining nuclear weapons. Parliament is due to decide next year how to replace the aging Trident system.The divide between pro- and anti-nuclear forces has long been a fault-line in the Labour Party. It was Prime Minister Clement Attlee's Labour government that developed atomic weapons in the years following World War II, making Britain the world's third nuclear-armed state after the United States and the Soviet Union.Labour briefly adopted a policy of unilateral disarmament under leader Michael Foot, whose election-losing 1983 party manifesto was described by one Labour lawmaker as "the longest suicide note in history."Labour's 1980s defeats led Blair and other young leaders to create "New Labour," repositioning the party as patriotic, pro-business and strong on defense."Defense and security has been an issue that the Labour Party has been very, very keen to keep mainstream, certainly since the 1980s," said Richard Whitman, an associate fellow at international affairs think-tank Chatham House.New Labour won three consecutive elections from 1997, but the party lost power in 2010 and was trounced by Prime Minister David Cameron's Conservatives in a May election that focused largely on perceptions of economic competence.Party members reacted by turning away from Blairism, derided by those on the left as "Tory- lite" policies. This month Labour elected Corbyn, a 66-year-old backbench lawmaker who promises to combine old-school socialism with a new style of politics. He is a sharp critic of Blair-era pro-business economics and international military engagements — notably the 2003 invasion of Iraq — and advocates more grassroots democracy in the party-On Sunday, however, pragmatism triumphed.Trade unions, whose votes carry half the weight at Labour conferences, announced that they would try to defeat any anti-Trident motion in order to protect jobs."The most important thing for us is jobs and the defense of communities," said Len McCluskey, head of the Unite union.A little later, Labour delegates voted not to debate Trident during the four-day conference in Brighton, southern England."This is an open and democratic party, and the members at conference have decided to discuss the issues that they want to debate this week," Corbyn said. "These are important issues like the NHS (health care system), the refugee crisis, mental health and housing."___Follow Jill Lawless on Twitter at http://Twitter.com/JillLawless
After success with Iran, pope, next stop for Obama is UN-Associated Press By DARLENE SUPERVILLE-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
NEW YORK (AP) — Fresh from successes on Iran and with the pope, President Barack Obama still carried heavy burdens into critical meetings this week at the U.N. General Assembly.They included the threat from Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria, as well as the Syrian civil war and the ensuing refugee crisis, and Russia's moves in Ukraine and in Syria.Obama arrived late Sunday morning for three days in New York, and perhaps the most anticipated moment was to come Monday evening — a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the sidelines of the annual gathering of world leaders.It will be their first face-to-face meeting in nearly a year. Both leaders also were to address the opening of the assembly's annual ministerial meeting on Monday.The U.S. and Russia have quibbled over who requested the meeting and what the focus will be. Putin wants to talk about Syria; Obama wants to concentrate on Ukraine.Despite administration efforts to turn Putin into an international pariah after Russia annexed the Crimean Peninsula from Ukraine in March 2014, Obama believes not engaging with the Russian leader "would be wrong" given the pressing issues in Ukraine and Syria, Obama deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes said.Putin has begun a military buildup in ally Syria for reasons that U.S. officials have said remain unclear.The White House also announced that Obama would meet with Cuban President Raul Castro on Tuesday. It will be their second since the U.S. and Cuba restored diplomatic ties late last year, and will follow Pope Francis' visit to both countries.Obama is fresh off a successful White House meeting with Francis. In remarks to throngs at an outdoor welcome ceremony last Wednesday, the pontiff voiced support for Obama policies on climate change, immigration and economic inequality — some of which have been blocked by Republican lawmakers. Shortly before Francis arrived in Washington, Obama was able to achieve a major victory when opponents of the Iran nuclear deal failed to muster enough support for a congressional resolution disapproving of the agreement. That spared Obama having to make good on his threatened veto.The U.S., Germany, Britain, China, Russia and France have agreed to lift economic sanctions on Iran in exchange for restrictions on its nuclear program. Republican lawmakers opposed the deal on grounds that it will not keep Iran from ever acquiring a nuclear weapon.Despite progress on the Iran nuclear front, Obama remains challenged elsewhere in the Middle East.A campaign against IS militants who have claimed broad sections of Iraq and Syria remains far from achieving Obama's goal to "degrade and ultimately destroy" the group, despite more than a year of military airstrikes against IS targets by a U.S.-led coalition of more than 60 countries.A separate U.S. effort to train thousands of moderate Syrian rebels to fight IS has turned out to be a costly failure, with fewer rebels than originally anticipated involved.Obama's first scheduled stop in New York was at a U.N. summit on steps to eradicate extreme poverty around the world. In the evening, the president planned to headline a Democratic Party LGBT fundraiser.Besides Monday's address to the General Assembly, Obama was to meet with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and lead a summit on international peacekeeping. A meeting with President Nursultan Nazarbayev of Kazakhstan was scheduled for Tuesday.Obama likely will use the speech to argue the merits of diplomacy and engagement. Rhodes said diplomacy was most notably instrumental in the Iran deal and U.S. overtures to Cuba. Rhodes said diplomacy is also needed, sometimes "backed by teeth," to reach a political resolution in Syria and Ukraine."The case the president will be making to the world is we need to remain invested in an international order that can solve problems and hold people accountable when they break the rules," he said.Obama will lead a summit on countering the Islamic State and violent extremism on Tuesday before returning to Washington.___Follow Darlene Superville on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/dsuperville
War on IS a focus of UN General Assembly amid stalemate-Associated Press By ZEINA KARAM-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
BEIRUT (AP) — When world leaders convene for the U.N. General Assembly this week, it will be a year since the U.S. president declared the formation of an international coalition to "degrade and ultimately destroy" the Islamic State group.Despite billions of dollars spent and thousands of airstrikes, the campaign appears to have made little impact.The extremist group may control slightly less territory than a year ago, but it continues to launch attacks and maintains key strongholds in Syria and Iraq. The militants' reach has expanded to other countries, including Libya, Egypt's Sinai Peninsula and Afghanistan.U.S.-led airstrikes helped Syrian Kurds hold the strategic border town of Kobani in January, and seize another key border town, Tal Abyad, this summer. But a much-touted offensive to oust IS militants from the Iraqi city of Ramadi remains stalled; there have been grave losses among the few Syrian rebels trained by the U.S. to fight IS; an IS-free zone announced by Turkey and the U.S. has failed to materialize.At the same time, growing concern about the Syrian refugee crisis and reports that IS may be planning attacks against Europe may spur some countries to get more involved in the anti-IS coalition. On Sunday, President Francois Hollande announced that French jet fighters had carried out their first airstrikes against IS targets in Syria. France had previously limited its air campaign to IS targets in Iraq.But short of sending in ground forces — an option Western countries are not willing to entertain — the stalemate in the war against the Islamic State group is likely to persist."Quite simply, the countries best-placed to contribute meaningfully to the anti-ISIS effort do not share the same interests in Syria," said Faysal Itani, a resident fellow at the Atlantic Council, using an alternate acronym for the Islamic State group.The Russian military buildup of aircraft, missiles, tanks and other equipment is complicating the fight against IS militants in Syria.Russia's declared purpose is helping the government of President Bashar Assad battle the Islamic extremists, and Moscow has urged the West to go along. In an interview broadcast ahead of his meeting on Monday with President Barack Obama, Russian President Vladimir Putin sharply criticized U.S. military support for Syrian rebels, describing it as illegal and useless.The Obama administration is concerned that Russia's real intention is to shore up Assad and strike at other factions seeking to topple him under the pretext of fighting international terrorism.In New York, all eyes will be on Putin, who is expected to announce a counterterrorism initiative when he addresses the General Assembly on Monday — his first UNGA appearance in 10 years."The Russian escalation in Syria will create a flurry of diplomatic activity to find a political solution to the Syrian crisis and a fresh attempt to confront ISIS in Syria, but the conditions for success on both fronts are still absent," said Paul Salem, vice president for policy and research at the Washington-based Middle East Institute."While Putin's call for more efforts to defeat ISIS will fall on welcoming ears in many capitals, the new Russian deployment does not introduce or free up significant numbers of ground forces to make such a campaign plausible," he wrote.Some analysts say the Russian deployment is likely to make Assad even less inclined to engage in meaningful negotiations for a political settlement to the civil war, which has allowed IS to flourish over the past four years."Barring either regime victory over the insurgency, which is unlikely, or a U.S. policy shift toward political transition away from Assad — which would bring regional allies and insurgents on board against ISIS — I don't see any prospect of defeating ISIS," Itani said.In the United States, both Republicans and Democrats have lambasted the administration's strategy against the IS group, especially after a U.S. general acknowledged that just a few U.S.-trained Syrian rebels remain on the battlefield — others were wiped out by al-Qaida militants.The U.S. military said this month that about 70 newly trained rebels have returned to Syria from Turkey. Still, the number is nowhere near the U.S. goal to train and equip 5,400 rebels a year at a cost of $500 million.The Obama administration is adamant that it will commit no U.S. ground troops despite calls from some in Congress to do so."The whole thing is a joke. They are not serious about destroying Daesh either in Syria or Iraq," said a one-time resident of Raqqa who fled to Turkey. "Dropping a few bombs every now and then will not change anything," he said. He spoke on condition of anonymity to protect his family in Raqqa, the Syrian city the IS has claimed as the capital of its self-declared caliphate.The top U.S. commander in the Middle East, Gen. Lloyd Austin, insisted this month that the operation against IS was making progress, and said the military had always said the campaign would take time.An IS operative, meanwhile, said it was unlikely that Russia would be drawn into the war against the group. And he said bickering over the Russian presence in Syria would ultimately benefit the IS effort."Any group that wants to divide Syria up or battle over it for dividing the booty, this will be in our interest," he wrote in an exchange of Skype messages. He spoke on condition of anonymity because members of the group are not allowed to speak to journalists.If Russia joins the coalition, he said: "It makes no difference for the Islamic State to fight 60 or 80 countries. It is the same."___Associated Press writer Sarah El Deeb contributed to this report.___Follow Zeina Karam on http://twitter.com/zkaram

EU 'ring of friends' turns into ring of fire-Reuters By Paul Taylor-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The European Union's dream of building "a ring of friends" from the Caucasus to the Sahara has turned into a nightmare as conflicts beyond its borders send refugees teeming into Europe.In contrast to the success of its eastward enlargement drive that transformed former communist countries into thriving market democracies, the European Neighbourhood Policy launched in 2003 has been a spectacular flop.It offered money, technical assistance and market access, but not membership, to 16 countries to the east and south in return for adopting EU democratic, administrative and economic norms."As we look at the situation now, it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that we are surrounded not by a 'ring of friends' - but by a 'ring of fire'," former Swedish prime minister Carl Bildt said earlier this year.The failure to stabilize or democratize the EU's surroundings was partly due to forces beyond Brussels' control: Russian resentment over the collapse of the Soviet Union, as well as political and sectarian strife in the Middle East.Five of the six Eastern Partnership countries - Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan - are weakened by unresolved "frozen conflicts" in which Moscow has a hand. The sixth, Belarus, is so authoritarian that it is subject to EU sanctions and has eschewed the offer of a free trade deal.EU officials now acknowledge that the framework designed to engage and transform the bloc's neighbors was flawed from the outset due to a mixture of arrogance and naivety."The idea was to have a ring of friends who would integrate with us but not become EU members. That was rather patronizing, with the European Union telling everyone what to do because we believed they wanted to be like us," said Christian Danielsson, head of the European Commission department for neighborhood policy and enlargement.-WRONG ASSUMPTIONS-The EU approach offered too little reward tied to too many conditions, with intrusive monitoring that authoritarian rulers and local oligarchs from Minsk and Baku to Cairo and Algiers instinctively resisted as a threat to their interests.It set out a one-size-fits-all relationship for states with widely diverse levels of economic development and governance, most of which are ill-equipped to apply swathes of EU market, environmental or health and safety legislation.And it assumed that groups of countries in North Africa or the south Caucasus would cooperate and trade with each other, when in reality they had little or no desire to work together.Now the EU neighborhood policy is undergoing a fundamental rethink, with a more modest, flexible and differentiated approach due to be unveiled on Nov. 17.Whether it will prove more effective remains to be seen.Ian Bond, a former British ambassador now at the Centre for European Reform, called the current policy a "mess of inconsistency and wishful thinking".The last review in 2010-11 had urged a focus on promoting "deep and sustainable democracy", he noted. Yet since then two countries - Libya and Syria - had fallen into near anarchy, one - Egypt - had had a military coup, and repression of civil society and the media had worsened in several, including Azerbaijan, Bond said.Among the few relative success stories, Tunisia, Ukraine and Georgia remain vulnerable to internal and external threats, while privileged economic ties have not made Israel receptive to EU efforts to promote a two-state solution with the Palestinians.NEW REALISM-EU officials talk of the need for a new realism, putting the pursuit of common interests with partners ahead of lecturing them on human rights and democracy.But the European Parliament and member states such as Germany and the Nordic countries will be loath to soft-pedal promoting such values.Bildt, for example, argued that "our concern for the stability of the day must not block our urge to respect the human rights that in the long run are an essential precondition for the stability that we are seeking".Some experts say the EU's offer of so-called "Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreements" was unrealistic and is destabilizing for neighbors' economies, because it requires them to open up their markets to EU competition before they have much to sell to Europe.Yet EU officials say Ukraine and Georgia, which sealed such deals with Brussels in defiance of Russian opposition, should press ahead with them to anchor economic development.Michael Leigh, a senior adviser at the German Marshall Fund think-tank and former head of the EU's enlargement department, said Brussels had responded to the 2011 Arab Spring uprisings by offering a "top-heavy, long, cumbersome, demanding" DCFTA process rather than swift but limited market access.It would be better to offer countries like Morocco and Tunisia an immediate end to restrictions on agricultural produce such as oranges and tomatoes, he said, but farm interests in EU countries such as France, Spain and Italy got in the way.The reality is that the EU's urgent need to contain and manage the influx of hundreds of thousands of refugees from the Middle East, Asia and Africa is likely to take precedence over all other priorities in dealing with the neighborhood.That means Brussels will divert money earmarked for economic development and administrative reform to fund facilities to keep refugees in place and discourage them from pouring into Europe.The ring of friends will have to wait for better times. For now, what the EU wants are flood defenses.(Additional reporting by Robin Emmott; Editing by Mark Trevelyan)

Iraq says Russia, Iran, Syria cooperating on security issues in Baghdad-Reuters By Stephen Kalin-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraq said on Saturday that its military officials were engaged in intelligence and security cooperation in Baghdad with Russia, Iran and Syria to counter the threat from the Islamic State militant group, a pact that could raise concerns in Washington.A statement from the Iraqi military's joint operations command said the cooperation had come "with increased Russian concern about the presence of thousands of terrorists from Russia undertaking criminal acts with Daesh (Islamic State)."The move could give Moscow more sway in the Middle East. It has stepped up its military involvement in Syria in recent weeks while pressing for Damascus to be included in international efforts to fight Islamic State, a demand Washington rejects.Moscow's involvement in Iraq could mean increased competition for Washington from a Cold War enemy as long-time enemy Iran increases its influence through Shi'ite militia allies just four years after the withdrawal of U.S. troops.By raising the stakes in Syria's four-year-old civil war, Russia has prompted its Cold War foe to expand diplomatic channels with it.Western officials have said U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry wants to launch a new effort at the U.N. General Assembly this week to try to find a political solution to the Syrian conflict.Diplomacy has taken on new urgency in light of Russia's military build-up in support of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and a refugee crisis that has spilled into Europe. Critics have urged U.S. President Barack Obama to be more decisive in the Middle East, particularly towards the Syrian conflict, and say lack of a clear American policy has given Islamic State opportunities to expand.Russian news agency Interfax quoted a military diplomatic source in Moscow as saying the Baghdad coordination center would be led on a rotating basis by officers of the four countries, starting with Iraq.The source added a committee might be created in Baghdad to plan military operations and control armed forces units in the fight against Islamic State.A Russian foreign ministry official told Interfax on Friday that Moscow could "theoretically" join the U.S.-led coalition against Islamic State if Damascus were included in international efforts to combat Islamic State and any international military operation in Syria had a United Nations mandate.Iraqi officials on Friday had denied reports of a coordination cell in Baghdad set up by Russian, Syrian and Iranian military commanders aimed at working with Iranian-backed Shi'ite militias in Iraq.The armed groups, some of which have fought alongside troops loyal to Assad, are seen as a critical weapon in Baghdad's battle against the radical Sunni militants of Islamic State.Iraqi Foreign Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari said in New York on Friday that his country had not received any Russian military advisers to help its forces but called for the U.S.-led coalition to bomb more Islamic State targets in Iraq.Despite more than $20 billion in U.S. aid and training, Iraq's army has nearly collapsed twice in the last year in the face of advances by Islamic State, which controls large swathes of territory in the north and west of the OPEC oil producer.(Reporting by Stephen Kalin; Editing by Michael Georgy and Sandra Maler)

Kerry says fight against Islamic State needs to be coordinated-Reuters-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Sunday it was vital to coordinate all efforts against the Islamic State militant group in the Middle East but this was not yet happening.Asked the purpose of an Iraqi-announced effort to coordinate intelligence among Iraq, Syria, Iran and Russia, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told reporters before he met Kerry it was to "coordinate the efforts against ISIL (Islamic State)."Kerry, however, told reporters: "I think the critical thing is that all of the efforts need to be coordinated. This is not yet coordinated. I think we have concerns about how we are going to go forward."(Reporting by Arshad Mohammed, editing Louis Charbonneau)
U.S. support for Syria rebels illegal: Putin-Reuters By Jack Stubbs and Denis Dyomkin-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin on Sunday branded U.S. support for rebel forces in Syria as illegal and ineffective, saying U.S.-trained rebels were leaving to join Islamic State with weapons supplied by Washington.In an interview with U.S. networks recorded ahead of a meeting with U.S. President Barack Obama, Putin said Syrian President Bashar al-Assad deserved international support as he was fighting terrorist organizations.Obama and Putin are scheduled to talk on Monday after Putin addresses the United Nations, although White House and Kremlin officials have disagreed on what the two leaders will discuss and even who initiated the meeting."In my opinion, provision of military support to illegal structures runs counter to the principles of modern international law and the United Nations Charter," he said in an excerpt of an interview with U.S. television networks CBS and PBS released by the Kremlin.Russia has stepped up its military involvement in Syria in recent weeks, with U.S. officials accusing Moscow of sending combat aircraft, tanks and other equipment to help the Syrian army.Russia's sudden military build-up this month in support of Assad and a refugee crisis that has spilled over from the region into Europe have lent new urgency to attempts to resolve the Syria conflict.The new U.S. tack on Syria could bring together Russia, Saudi Arabia and countries such as Turkey and Qatar, which support Syrian opposition groups.U.S.-Russian relations have slumped to a post-Cold War low over the Ukraine crisis, though the two sides shares concerns about the threat posed by Islamic State, while disagreeing on the approach.Putin says Damascus should be included in international efforts to fight (IS), a demand the United States rejects, and he criticized U.S. plans to train up to 5,400 Syrian rebels to fight Islamic State."It turns out that only 60 of these fighters have been properly trained, and as few as four or five people actually carry weapons," he said. "The rest of them have deserted with the American weapons to join ISIS," he said referring to Islamic State.Critics have urged Obama to be more decisive in the Middle East and Syria, where the United Nations has said 250,000 people have died after four years of conflict, and say lack of a clear American policy has given Islamic State opportunities to expand.Putin said Russia's support for the Assad government was based on the U.N. Charter."We have been providing assistance to legitimate government entities only," he said. "As of today it has taken the form of weapons supplies to the Syrian government, personnel training and humanitarian aid to the Syrian people."(Writing by Jack Stubbs; Editing by Jon Boyle)
Saudi-led coalition helicopter attack kills 25 civilians in Yemen village: residents-Reuters-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
SANAA (Reuters) - Air strikes by helicopters from a Saudi-led alliance killed 25 civilians in a Yemeni village on Sunday, residents and medics said, adding that most of the victims were women and children."People were fleeing their homes as the helicopters pursued, They committed a massacre for no reason," a resident who called himself Khaled told Reuters by phone.The incident in the village of Bani Zela, in Yemen's Red Sea border area with Saudi Arabia, comes a day after the kingdom announced that three of its officers, including a general, had been killed along the frontier.An Arab coalition led by Saudi Arabia has been pounding the Iran-allied Houthi militia in Yemen from the air for six months, trying to eject the group from the capital Sanaa and restore President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi to power.The campaign has resulted in several mass killings of civilians, including 36 people at a water bottling plant in August and 25 workers at a milk factory in April.The attack on Bani Zela may signal an escalation in combat along the border. The target of the strikes was unclear and a spokesman for the alliance could not be immediately reached for comment.-BORDER DEATHS-A Saudi brigadier general died in hospital of wounds suffered in an incident on the border with Yemen, the kingdom's armed forces said on Saturday.Ibrahim Omar Ibrahim Hamzi, deputy commander of the 8th brigade in Saudi Arabia's southern Jizan province, was injured "defending the nation and its citizens," the statement said, without providing any details.His death follows the killing of two border officers along the frontier on Saturday.About 100 Saudi military personnel, including another general, have been killed along the border with Yemen since the Saudi-led campaign began in March, according to a Reuters count.More than 4,500 Yemenis have also died since March, according to U.N. figures.In the latest fighting, coalition air strikes pounded suspected Houthi targets in the capital around 25 times, residents said, and hit several other central provinces.Gulf troops and allied Yemeni tribesmen were fighting ground battles against militiamen and their allies in Yemen's army in the desert province of Marib 120 km (75 miles) east of Sanaa on Sunday.The two sides exchanged artillery fire in a coalition push for the strategic foothills leading to Sanaa on Saturday, backed by Arab air strikes.At least 20 bodies from both sides were seen on the battlefield, a local official told Reuters.Hadi arrived in the southern port city of Aden on Tuesday, a week after his government's formal return to Yemeni soil from Saudi Arabia.But he left the country again on Sunday, local officials said, en route to the annual United Nations General Assembly meeting in New York. It remains unclear whether he will return again to Yemen or go back to Saudi Arabia.(Reporting by Noah Browning, Mohammed Ghobari and Mohammed Mukhashaf; Editing by Andrew Roche)

Iran-Saudi war of words heats up over hajj disaster-AFP By Ian Timberlake-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
Riyadh (AFP) - Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei demanded Saudi Arabia apologise Sunday for a stampede that killed 769 pilgrims at the hajj, as a war of words escalated between the regional rivals.Khamenei accused Riyadh of "a blame game", after the Saudi foreign minister said Iran was playing politics with tragedy."Instead of passing the buck and playing a blame game, the Saudis should accept their responsibility and apologise to the world's Muslims and the bereaved families," Khamenei said in comments reported by Iran's official IRNA news agency.About 400 protesters later chanted "Death to the treacherous House of Saud" outside the Saudi embassy in Tehran.Iranian leaders have been fiercely critical of Saudi authorities' handling of safety at the hajj, following Thursday's stampede during a ritual stoning of the devil in Mina, near the holy city of Mecca.Within hours, Khamenei blamed "improper measures" and "mismanagement" for the disaster.At least 144 Iranians died in the crush -- the highest confirmed toll among foreign nationalities. Tehran says 323 Iranians are missing.Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, addressing a UN development summit in New York on Saturday, said he wanted to "emphasise the need for swift attention to the injured as well as investigating the causes of this incident and other similar incidents in this year's hajj."Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir, also in New York for the UN General Assembly, said the Iranians "should know better than to play politics with a tragedy that has befallen people who were performing their most sacred religious duty."Saudi King Salman, whose official title is "Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques" in Mecca and Medina, ordered "a revision" of how the hajj is organised, and a formal Saudi inquiry is under way into the stampede.It was the worst disaster to strike the annual pilgrimage in a quarter-century."We will reveal the facts when they emerge. And we will not hold anything back," Jubeir said, adding the kingdom has a long history of devoting "tremendous resources" to ensuring a successful pilgrimage."I would hope Iranian leaders would be more sensible and more thoughtful with regards to those who perished in this tragedy, and wait until we see the results of the investigation."- Yemen, Syria tensions -Relations between Shiite Iran and Sunni-dominated Saudi Arabia were already severely strained by conflicts in Yemen and Syria, and an international agreement on Iran's nuclear programme.It is also not the first time Iranian pilgrims have been killed in Saudi Arabia. In 1987 Saudi security forces suppressed an unauthorised protest by Iranian pilgrims. An official toll gave the death toll as more than 400, including 275 Iranians.Iran has demanded that affected countries have a role in the stampede investigation, and on Friday Ayatollah Mohammad Emami Kashani said the running of the hajj "must be handed over to Islamic states."Such suggestions are "frankly ridiculous", columnist Rasheed Abou-Alsamh wrote in Sunday's Arab News, an English-language Saudi daily.He said criticism of the kingdom's hajj organisation is part of a "concerted campaign of defamation against Saudi Arabia by its enemies".The Saudi Press Agency over the weekend started a Twitter account, @spa_persian, to transmit official information in the Iranian language Farsi.Senior Saudi officials suggested the pilgrims were at fault for not following instructions.The interior ministry has said it assigned 100,000 police to secure the hajj and manage crowds at the event, which drew almost two million faithful.But pilgrims blamed the stampede on police road closures and poor crowd management, during searing temperatures.Hundreds of thousands of pilgrims were converging on a five-storey structure known as Jamarat Bridge to perform the stoning ritual when the stampede happened nearby."The police blocked all the roads, leaving us with only one route," said Hamza Musa Kabir, 55, of Kano, Nigeria.Kabir was in a procession heading towards the Jamarat Bridge when, he said, police let pilgrims returning from the stoning site use the same route."Because those returning were moving in the opposite (direction) of the surging crowd, there was a stampede," said Kabir, who became trapped under another man and had to disrobe to escape.The stampede was the second tragedy to cast a pall over this year's hajj.A massive construction crane collapsed on Mecca's Grand Mosque several days before and killed 109 people, many of them pilgrims.For years, the hajj was marred by stampedes and fires, but it had been largely incident-free for almost a decade after safety improvements and billions of dollars' worth of infrastructure investment.
AP Interview: Egypt's leader says country in 'ferocious war'-Associated Press By EDITH M. LEDERER and JOHN DANISZEWSKI-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Egypt's President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi said in an interview that the Mideast region needs to cooperate to defeat a worsening terrorist threat that has led to a "ferocious war" in Egypt and created the danger of some countries "sliding into failure."In a wide-ranging interview with The Associated Press Saturday night, el-Sissi also said that Syria should not be divided after its civil war, that the Egyptian military needs to be "augmented" to defeat terrorists fighting in the Sinai and Western Desert, and that efforts should be renewed to solve the Palestinian issue and expand Egypt's nearly 40-year-peace with Israel to include more Arab countries.Resolving the Palestinian question, he said, could "change the face of the region and ... bring about enormous improvement to the situation. ... I'm optimistic by nature and I say that there is a great opportunity."The 60-year-old former military chief, who ran for president and assumed office in 2014 after the army ousted his predecessor Mohammed Morsi the year before, spoke with AP at a New York hotel on Saturday night after he addressed a U.N. summit that adopted new development goals for the next 15 years. He will also attend the annual ministerial meeting of the General Assembly at U.N. headquarters that begins Monday.Speaking just days after pardoning and releasing two jailed Al-Jazeera English journalists in Cairo, el-Sissi said he is open to clemency to other journalists who have been tried and convicted in absentia. But he said he would only act within his powers as president and would also respect the prerogatives of Egypt's judiciary."Rest assured that we are always keen on sorting out issues and problems, especially those that relate to journalists and to the media personnel," he added.El-Sissi, speaking through a translator, said that regional security is in "its most vulnerable state.""Let it suffice to look at the map and find countries that are suffering from failure. There is an increase in the extremist groups. There is the problem of the refugees that are flowing into Europe. With all that in mind, we can sense how difficult and how complicated" the challenge is, he said."I don't want to say we are late in doing what we should have done, but (defeating the threat will require) a lot of effort, and not only a lot of effort but as a matter of fact it entails a good amount of understanding and cooperation from every country ... to restore the countries that are now sliding into this vicious cycle of failure."In that vein, the Egyptian leader cited what he called an "improving" relationship with the United States. Ties are "strategic and stable," he said.It has been a tumultuous period in Egypt. Longtime leader Hosni Mubarak was ousted in 2011 in the Arab Spring revolt that eventually led to the installation of the Muslim Brotherhood's Morsi as Egypt's first popularly elected president; he then was tuned out by the military amid another popular uprising."The last two years were a real test of the endurance and strength" of the ties with the U.S., el-Sissi said.Since then, Egypt has been fighting an insurgency by militants based in the Sinai who have pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group, and militants have carried out bombings and shootings against policemen and troops in Cairo and other cities.Security forces have cracked down hard on Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamists. Hundreds of Islamists have been killed and thousands arrested, and Morsi and other Brotherhood leaders have had death sentences issued against them in multiple trials. The trials and the crackdown have brought heavy criticism from human rights groups. El-Sissi's government contends the Brotherhood is complicit in violence, a claim the group denies, saying authorities want to crush them as a political opposition. Asserted el-Sissi: "The problem with the Muslim Brotherhood is not a problem between the government of Egypt and these people. The real problem is between the Egyptian people and the Muslim Brotherhood." He said the Brotherhood has given "a very bad impression" and Egyptians "are not able to forgive and forget."The Egyptian military, he said, "has always been a factor for stability" and should be strengthened because it faces "a ferocious war against terrorism and extremism ... Increasing the military capability of the Egyptian military means that it can strike a strategic balance" for the region.Referring to the civil war that has shattered Syria, the president said "we are very keen that Syria remains as a nation and as a state and does not divide into smaller states."He warned that the collapse of Syria would mean that all its weapons and equipment would fall into the hands "of the terrorists." If that happens, he said, the danger will not only hurt Syria but spill over to its neighbors and "will pose a serious threat to the rest of the region, and this is what we fear."Asked how extremists could be neutralized, he offered no immediate solution: "This is exactly the dilemma we are talking about."
Hollande details French strikes in Syria-Associated Press-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — President Francois Hollande says six French jet fighters targeted and destroyed an Islamic State training camp in eastern Syria.The French leader spoke briefly to reporters Sunday at the United Nations after the strikes were first announced in Paris.He said the camp was a threat to French security and was destroyed without causing civilian casualties.The strikes make good on a promise to go after the group that the president has said is planning attacks against several countries, including France.Hollande said more strikes "could take place in the coming weeks if necessary." The targets were identified in earlier reconnaissance flights. He thanked the U.S.-led coalition for providing information as well.He spoke before the start of a third day of a major U.N. development summit.

UK's Labour backs down on vote on scrapping nuclear weapons-Associated Press By JILL LAWLESS-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
LONDON (AP) — Britain's Labour Party has decided to leave the country's nuclear weapons alone.The opposition party's new leader, Jeremy Corbyn, opposes atomic weapons, and had said the issue would be debated at the party's annual conference, which opened Sunday.But after Labour-supporting trade unions said they would vote to keep nuclear weapons and protect thousands of defense jobs, delegates dropped the issue from the conference agenda.It's a setback for left-winger Corbyn, who wants the party to consider policies long considered off the political agenda, from nationalizing industry to diverging on foreign policy from the U.S.He said earlier Sunday that Britain should get rid of its "weapon of mass destruction" and scrap the Trident nuclear program.Britain has been a nuclear power since the 1950s, and both Labour and Conservative governments have consistently supported atomic weapons. Since the 1990s, Britain's nuclear deterrent has consisted of four Royal Navy submarines armed with Trident missiles.News that Trident would be debated at the conference for the first time in many years had been hailed as a victory by anti-nuclear activists — but caused despair for Labour centrists, who fear the party faces electoral oblivion under Corbyn.John McTernan, a former aide to Prime Minister Tony Blair, argued that nuclear weapons are "deeply and broadly supported" by British voters."So to make the centerpiece of your first conference a turn towards unilateralism is a resounding signal to the public that you don't want to be a party of government," he said.A vote to get rid of Trident would also have opened a rift between Corbyn and many Labour lawmakers, who support retaining nuclear weapons. Parliament is due to decide next year how to replace the aging Trident system.The divide between pro- and anti-nuclear forces has long been a fault-line in the Labour Party. It was Prime Minister Clement Attlee's Labour government that developed atomic weapons in the years following World War II, making Britain the world's third nuclear-armed state after the United States and the Soviet Union.Labour briefly adopted a policy of unilateral disarmament under leader Michael Foot, whose election-losing 1983 party manifesto was described by one Labour lawmaker as "the longest suicide note in history."Labour's 1980s defeats led Blair and other young leaders to create "New Labour," repositioning the party as patriotic, pro-business and strong on defense."Defense and security has been an issue that the Labour Party has been very, very keen to keep mainstream, certainly since the 1980s," said Richard Whitman, an associate fellow at international affairs think-tank Chatham House.New Labour won three consecutive elections from 1997, but the party lost power in 2010 and was trounced by Prime Minister David Cameron's Conservatives in a May election that focused largely on perceptions of economic competence.Party members reacted by turning away from Blairism, derided by those on the left as "Tory- lite" policies. This month Labour elected Corbyn, a 66-year-old backbench lawmaker who promises to combine old-school socialism with a new style of politics. He is a sharp critic of Blair-era pro-business economics and international military engagements — notably the 2003 invasion of Iraq — and advocates more grassroots democracy in the party-On Sunday, however, pragmatism triumphed.Trade unions, whose votes carry half the weight at Labour conferences, announced that they would try to defeat any anti-Trident motion in order to protect jobs."The most important thing for us is jobs and the defense of communities," said Len McCluskey, head of the Unite union.A little later, Labour delegates voted not to debate Trident during the four-day conference in Brighton, southern England."This is an open and democratic party, and the members at conference have decided to discuss the issues that they want to debate this week," Corbyn said. "These are important issues like the NHS (health care system), the refugee crisis, mental health and housing."___Follow Jill Lawless on Twitter at http://Twitter.com/JillLawless
After success with Iran, pope, next stop for Obama is UN-Associated Press By DARLENE SUPERVILLE-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
NEW YORK (AP) — Fresh from successes on Iran and with the pope, President Barack Obama still carried heavy burdens into critical meetings this week at the U.N. General Assembly.They included the threat from Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria, as well as the Syrian civil war and the ensuing refugee crisis, and Russia's moves in Ukraine and in Syria.Obama arrived late Sunday morning for three days in New York, and perhaps the most anticipated moment was to come Monday evening — a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the sidelines of the annual gathering of world leaders.It will be their first face-to-face meeting in nearly a year. Both leaders also were to address the opening of the assembly's annual ministerial meeting on Monday.The U.S. and Russia have quibbled over who requested the meeting and what the focus will be. Putin wants to talk about Syria; Obama wants to concentrate on Ukraine.Despite administration efforts to turn Putin into an international pariah after Russia annexed the Crimean Peninsula from Ukraine in March 2014, Obama believes not engaging with the Russian leader "would be wrong" given the pressing issues in Ukraine and Syria, Obama deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes said.Putin has begun a military buildup in ally Syria for reasons that U.S. officials have said remain unclear.The White House also announced that Obama would meet with Cuban President Raul Castro on Tuesday. It will be their second since the U.S. and Cuba restored diplomatic ties late last year, and will follow Pope Francis' visit to both countries.Obama is fresh off a successful White House meeting with Francis. In remarks to throngs at an outdoor welcome ceremony last Wednesday, the pontiff voiced support for Obama policies on climate change, immigration and economic inequality — some of which have been blocked by Republican lawmakers. Shortly before Francis arrived in Washington, Obama was able to achieve a major victory when opponents of the Iran nuclear deal failed to muster enough support for a congressional resolution disapproving of the agreement. That spared Obama having to make good on his threatened veto.The U.S., Germany, Britain, China, Russia and France have agreed to lift economic sanctions on Iran in exchange for restrictions on its nuclear program. Republican lawmakers opposed the deal on grounds that it will not keep Iran from ever acquiring a nuclear weapon.Despite progress on the Iran nuclear front, Obama remains challenged elsewhere in the Middle East.A campaign against IS militants who have claimed broad sections of Iraq and Syria remains far from achieving Obama's goal to "degrade and ultimately destroy" the group, despite more than a year of military airstrikes against IS targets by a U.S.-led coalition of more than 60 countries.A separate U.S. effort to train thousands of moderate Syrian rebels to fight IS has turned out to be a costly failure, with fewer rebels than originally anticipated involved.Obama's first scheduled stop in New York was at a U.N. summit on steps to eradicate extreme poverty around the world. In the evening, the president planned to headline a Democratic Party LGBT fundraiser.Besides Monday's address to the General Assembly, Obama was to meet with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and lead a summit on international peacekeeping. A meeting with President Nursultan Nazarbayev of Kazakhstan was scheduled for Tuesday.Obama likely will use the speech to argue the merits of diplomacy and engagement. Rhodes said diplomacy was most notably instrumental in the Iran deal and U.S. overtures to Cuba. Rhodes said diplomacy is also needed, sometimes "backed by teeth," to reach a political resolution in Syria and Ukraine."The case the president will be making to the world is we need to remain invested in an international order that can solve problems and hold people accountable when they break the rules," he said.Obama will lead a summit on countering the Islamic State and violent extremism on Tuesday before returning to Washington.___Follow Darlene Superville on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/dsuperville
War on IS a focus of UN General Assembly amid stalemate-Associated Press By ZEINA KARAM-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
BEIRUT (AP) — When world leaders convene for the U.N. General Assembly this week, it will be a year since the U.S. president declared the formation of an international coalition to "degrade and ultimately destroy" the Islamic State group.Despite billions of dollars spent and thousands of airstrikes, the campaign appears to have made little impact.The extremist group may control slightly less territory than a year ago, but it continues to launch attacks and maintains key strongholds in Syria and Iraq. The militants' reach has expanded to other countries, including Libya, Egypt's Sinai Peninsula and Afghanistan.U.S.-led airstrikes helped Syrian Kurds hold the strategic border town of Kobani in January, and seize another key border town, Tal Abyad, this summer. But a much-touted offensive to oust IS militants from the Iraqi city of Ramadi remains stalled; there have been grave losses among the few Syrian rebels trained by the U.S. to fight IS; an IS-free zone announced by Turkey and the U.S. has failed to materialize.At the same time, growing concern about the Syrian refugee crisis and reports that IS may be planning attacks against Europe may spur some countries to get more involved in the anti-IS coalition. On Sunday, President Francois Hollande announced that French jet fighters had carried out their first airstrikes against IS targets in Syria. France had previously limited its air campaign to IS targets in Iraq.But short of sending in ground forces — an option Western countries are not willing to entertain — the stalemate in the war against the Islamic State group is likely to persist."Quite simply, the countries best-placed to contribute meaningfully to the anti-ISIS effort do not share the same interests in Syria," said Faysal Itani, a resident fellow at the Atlantic Council, using an alternate acronym for the Islamic State group.The Russian military buildup of aircraft, missiles, tanks and other equipment is complicating the fight against IS militants in Syria.Russia's declared purpose is helping the government of President Bashar Assad battle the Islamic extremists, and Moscow has urged the West to go along. In an interview broadcast ahead of his meeting on Monday with President Barack Obama, Russian President Vladimir Putin sharply criticized U.S. military support for Syrian rebels, describing it as illegal and useless.The Obama administration is concerned that Russia's real intention is to shore up Assad and strike at other factions seeking to topple him under the pretext of fighting international terrorism.In New York, all eyes will be on Putin, who is expected to announce a counterterrorism initiative when he addresses the General Assembly on Monday — his first UNGA appearance in 10 years."The Russian escalation in Syria will create a flurry of diplomatic activity to find a political solution to the Syrian crisis and a fresh attempt to confront ISIS in Syria, but the conditions for success on both fronts are still absent," said Paul Salem, vice president for policy and research at the Washington-based Middle East Institute."While Putin's call for more efforts to defeat ISIS will fall on welcoming ears in many capitals, the new Russian deployment does not introduce or free up significant numbers of ground forces to make such a campaign plausible," he wrote.Some analysts say the Russian deployment is likely to make Assad even less inclined to engage in meaningful negotiations for a political settlement to the civil war, which has allowed IS to flourish over the past four years."Barring either regime victory over the insurgency, which is unlikely, or a U.S. policy shift toward political transition away from Assad — which would bring regional allies and insurgents on board against ISIS — I don't see any prospect of defeating ISIS," Itani said.In the United States, both Republicans and Democrats have lambasted the administration's strategy against the IS group, especially after a U.S. general acknowledged that just a few U.S.-trained Syrian rebels remain on the battlefield — others were wiped out by al-Qaida militants.The U.S. military said this month that about 70 newly trained rebels have returned to Syria from Turkey. Still, the number is nowhere near the U.S. goal to train and equip 5,400 rebels a year at a cost of $500 million.The Obama administration is adamant that it will commit no U.S. ground troops despite calls from some in Congress to do so."The whole thing is a joke. They are not serious about destroying Daesh either in Syria or Iraq," said a one-time resident of Raqqa who fled to Turkey. "Dropping a few bombs every now and then will not change anything," he said. He spoke on condition of anonymity to protect his family in Raqqa, the Syrian city the IS has claimed as the capital of its self-declared caliphate.The top U.S. commander in the Middle East, Gen. Lloyd Austin, insisted this month that the operation against IS was making progress, and said the military had always said the campaign would take time.An IS operative, meanwhile, said it was unlikely that Russia would be drawn into the war against the group. And he said bickering over the Russian presence in Syria would ultimately benefit the IS effort."Any group that wants to divide Syria up or battle over it for dividing the booty, this will be in our interest," he wrote in an exchange of Skype messages. He spoke on condition of anonymity because members of the group are not allowed to speak to journalists.If Russia joins the coalition, he said: "It makes no difference for the Islamic State to fight 60 or 80 countries. It is the same."___Associated Press writer Sarah El Deeb contributed to this report.___Follow Zeina Karam on http://twitter.com/zkaram

EU 'ring of friends' turns into ring of fire-Reuters By Paul Taylor-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The European Union's dream of building "a ring of friends" from the Caucasus to the Sahara has turned into a nightmare as conflicts beyond its borders send refugees teeming into Europe.In contrast to the success of its eastward enlargement drive that transformed former communist countries into thriving market democracies, the European Neighbourhood Policy launched in 2003 has been a spectacular flop.It offered money, technical assistance and market access, but not membership, to 16 countries to the east and south in return for adopting EU democratic, administrative and economic norms."As we look at the situation now, it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that we are surrounded not by a 'ring of friends' - but by a 'ring of fire'," former Swedish prime minister Carl Bildt said earlier this year.The failure to stabilize or democratize the EU's surroundings was partly due to forces beyond Brussels' control: Russian resentment over the collapse of the Soviet Union, as well as political and sectarian strife in the Middle East.Five of the six Eastern Partnership countries - Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan - are weakened by unresolved "frozen conflicts" in which Moscow has a hand. The sixth, Belarus, is so authoritarian that it is subject to EU sanctions and has eschewed the offer of a free trade deal.EU officials now acknowledge that the framework designed to engage and transform the bloc's neighbors was flawed from the outset due to a mixture of arrogance and naivety."The idea was to have a ring of friends who would integrate with us but not become EU members. That was rather patronizing, with the European Union telling everyone what to do because we believed they wanted to be like us," said Christian Danielsson, head of the European Commission department for neighborhood policy and enlargement.-WRONG ASSUMPTIONS-The EU approach offered too little reward tied to too many conditions, with intrusive monitoring that authoritarian rulers and local oligarchs from Minsk and Baku to Cairo and Algiers instinctively resisted as a threat to their interests.It set out a one-size-fits-all relationship for states with widely diverse levels of economic development and governance, most of which are ill-equipped to apply swathes of EU market, environmental or health and safety legislation.And it assumed that groups of countries in North Africa or the south Caucasus would cooperate and trade with each other, when in reality they had little or no desire to work together.Now the EU neighborhood policy is undergoing a fundamental rethink, with a more modest, flexible and differentiated approach due to be unveiled on Nov. 17.Whether it will prove more effective remains to be seen.Ian Bond, a former British ambassador now at the Centre for European Reform, called the current policy a "mess of inconsistency and wishful thinking".The last review in 2010-11 had urged a focus on promoting "deep and sustainable democracy", he noted. Yet since then two countries - Libya and Syria - had fallen into near anarchy, one - Egypt - had had a military coup, and repression of civil society and the media had worsened in several, including Azerbaijan, Bond said.Among the few relative success stories, Tunisia, Ukraine and Georgia remain vulnerable to internal and external threats, while privileged economic ties have not made Israel receptive to EU efforts to promote a two-state solution with the Palestinians.NEW REALISM-EU officials talk of the need for a new realism, putting the pursuit of common interests with partners ahead of lecturing them on human rights and democracy.But the European Parliament and member states such as Germany and the Nordic countries will be loath to soft-pedal promoting such values.Bildt, for example, argued that "our concern for the stability of the day must not block our urge to respect the human rights that in the long run are an essential precondition for the stability that we are seeking".Some experts say the EU's offer of so-called "Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreements" was unrealistic and is destabilizing for neighbors' economies, because it requires them to open up their markets to EU competition before they have much to sell to Europe.Yet EU officials say Ukraine and Georgia, which sealed such deals with Brussels in defiance of Russian opposition, should press ahead with them to anchor economic development.Michael Leigh, a senior adviser at the German Marshall Fund think-tank and former head of the EU's enlargement department, said Brussels had responded to the 2011 Arab Spring uprisings by offering a "top-heavy, long, cumbersome, demanding" DCFTA process rather than swift but limited market access.It would be better to offer countries like Morocco and Tunisia an immediate end to restrictions on agricultural produce such as oranges and tomatoes, he said, but farm interests in EU countries such as France, Spain and Italy got in the way.The reality is that the EU's urgent need to contain and manage the influx of hundreds of thousands of refugees from the Middle East, Asia and Africa is likely to take precedence over all other priorities in dealing with the neighborhood.That means Brussels will divert money earmarked for economic development and administrative reform to fund facilities to keep refugees in place and discourage them from pouring into Europe.The ring of friends will have to wait for better times. For now, what the EU wants are flood defenses.(Additional reporting by Robin Emmott; Editing by Mark Trevelyan)

Iraq says Russia, Iran, Syria cooperating on security issues in Baghdad-Reuters By Stephen Kalin-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraq said on Saturday that its military officials were engaged in intelligence and security cooperation in Baghdad with Russia, Iran and Syria to counter the threat from the Islamic State militant group, a pact that could raise concerns in Washington.A statement from the Iraqi military's joint operations command said the cooperation had come "with increased Russian concern about the presence of thousands of terrorists from Russia undertaking criminal acts with Daesh (Islamic State)."The move could give Moscow more sway in the Middle East. It has stepped up its military involvement in Syria in recent weeks while pressing for Damascus to be included in international efforts to fight Islamic State, a demand Washington rejects.Moscow's involvement in Iraq could mean increased competition for Washington from a Cold War enemy as long-time enemy Iran increases its influence through Shi'ite militia allies just four years after the withdrawal of U.S. troops.By raising the stakes in Syria's four-year-old civil war, Russia has prompted its Cold War foe to expand diplomatic channels with it.Western officials have said U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry wants to launch a new effort at the U.N. General Assembly this week to try to find a political solution to the Syrian conflict.Diplomacy has taken on new urgency in light of Russia's military build-up in support of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and a refugee crisis that has spilled into Europe. Critics have urged U.S. President Barack Obama to be more decisive in the Middle East, particularly towards the Syrian conflict, and say lack of a clear American policy has given Islamic State opportunities to expand.Russian news agency Interfax quoted a military diplomatic source in Moscow as saying the Baghdad coordination center would be led on a rotating basis by officers of the four countries, starting with Iraq.The source added a committee might be created in Baghdad to plan military operations and control armed forces units in the fight against Islamic State.A Russian foreign ministry official told Interfax on Friday that Moscow could "theoretically" join the U.S.-led coalition against Islamic State if Damascus were included in international efforts to combat Islamic State and any international military operation in Syria had a United Nations mandate.Iraqi officials on Friday had denied reports of a coordination cell in Baghdad set up by Russian, Syrian and Iranian military commanders aimed at working with Iranian-backed Shi'ite militias in Iraq.The armed groups, some of which have fought alongside troops loyal to Assad, are seen as a critical weapon in Baghdad's battle against the radical Sunni militants of Islamic State.Iraqi Foreign Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari said in New York on Friday that his country had not received any Russian military advisers to help its forces but called for the U.S.-led coalition to bomb more Islamic State targets in Iraq.Despite more than $20 billion in U.S. aid and training, Iraq's army has nearly collapsed twice in the last year in the face of advances by Islamic State, which controls large swathes of territory in the north and west of the OPEC oil producer.(Reporting by Stephen Kalin; Editing by Michael Georgy and Sandra Maler)

Kerry says fight against Islamic State needs to be coordinated-Reuters-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Sunday it was vital to coordinate all efforts against the Islamic State militant group in the Middle East but this was not yet happening.Asked the purpose of an Iraqi-announced effort to coordinate intelligence among Iraq, Syria, Iran and Russia, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told reporters before he met Kerry it was to "coordinate the efforts against ISIL (Islamic State)."Kerry, however, told reporters: "I think the critical thing is that all of the efforts need to be coordinated. This is not yet coordinated. I think we have concerns about how we are going to go forward."(Reporting by Arshad Mohammed, editing Louis Charbonneau)
U.S. support for Syria rebels illegal: Putin-Reuters By Jack Stubbs and Denis Dyomkin-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin on Sunday branded U.S. support for rebel forces in Syria as illegal and ineffective, saying U.S.-trained rebels were leaving to join Islamic State with weapons supplied by Washington.In an interview with U.S. networks recorded ahead of a meeting with U.S. President Barack Obama, Putin said Syrian President Bashar al-Assad deserved international support as he was fighting terrorist organizations.Obama and Putin are scheduled to talk on Monday after Putin addresses the United Nations, although White House and Kremlin officials have disagreed on what the two leaders will discuss and even who initiated the meeting."In my opinion, provision of military support to illegal structures runs counter to the principles of modern international law and the United Nations Charter," he said in an excerpt of an interview with U.S. television networks CBS and PBS released by the Kremlin.Russia has stepped up its military involvement in Syria in recent weeks, with U.S. officials accusing Moscow of sending combat aircraft, tanks and other equipment to help the Syrian army.Russia's sudden military build-up this month in support of Assad and a refugee crisis that has spilled over from the region into Europe have lent new urgency to attempts to resolve the Syria conflict.The new U.S. tack on Syria could bring together Russia, Saudi Arabia and countries such as Turkey and Qatar, which support Syrian opposition groups.U.S.-Russian relations have slumped to a post-Cold War low over the Ukraine crisis, though the two sides shares concerns about the threat posed by Islamic State, while disagreeing on the approach.Putin says Damascus should be included in international efforts to fight (IS), a demand the United States rejects, and he criticized U.S. plans to train up to 5,400 Syrian rebels to fight Islamic State."It turns out that only 60 of these fighters have been properly trained, and as few as four or five people actually carry weapons," he said. "The rest of them have deserted with the American weapons to join ISIS," he said referring to Islamic State.Critics have urged Obama to be more decisive in the Middle East and Syria, where the United Nations has said 250,000 people have died after four years of conflict, and say lack of a clear American policy has given Islamic State opportunities to expand.Putin said Russia's support for the Assad government was based on the U.N. Charter."We have been providing assistance to legitimate government entities only," he said. "As of today it has taken the form of weapons supplies to the Syrian government, personnel training and humanitarian aid to the Syrian people."(Writing by Jack Stubbs; Editing by Jon Boyle)
Saudi-led coalition helicopter attack kills 25 civilians in Yemen village: residents-Reuters-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
SANAA (Reuters) - Air strikes by helicopters from a Saudi-led alliance killed 25 civilians in a Yemeni village on Sunday, residents and medics said, adding that most of the victims were women and children."People were fleeing their homes as the helicopters pursued, They committed a massacre for no reason," a resident who called himself Khaled told Reuters by phone.The incident in the village of Bani Zela, in Yemen's Red Sea border area with Saudi Arabia, comes a day after the kingdom announced that three of its officers, including a general, had been killed along the frontier.An Arab coalition led by Saudi Arabia has been pounding the Iran-allied Houthi militia in Yemen from the air for six months, trying to eject the group from the capital Sanaa and restore President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi to power.The campaign has resulted in several mass killings of civilians, including 36 people at a water bottling plant in August and 25 workers at a milk factory in April.The attack on Bani Zela may signal an escalation in combat along the border. The target of the strikes was unclear and a spokesman for the alliance could not be immediately reached for comment.-BORDER DEATHS-A Saudi brigadier general died in hospital of wounds suffered in an incident on the border with Yemen, the kingdom's armed forces said on Saturday.Ibrahim Omar Ibrahim Hamzi, deputy commander of the 8th brigade in Saudi Arabia's southern Jizan province, was injured "defending the nation and its citizens," the statement said, without providing any details.His death follows the killing of two border officers along the frontier on Saturday.About 100 Saudi military personnel, including another general, have been killed along the border with Yemen since the Saudi-led campaign began in March, according to a Reuters count.More than 4,500 Yemenis have also died since March, according to U.N. figures.In the latest fighting, coalition air strikes pounded suspected Houthi targets in the capital around 25 times, residents said, and hit several other central provinces.Gulf troops and allied Yemeni tribesmen were fighting ground battles against militiamen and their allies in Yemen's army in the desert province of Marib 120 km (75 miles) east of Sanaa on Sunday.The two sides exchanged artillery fire in a coalition push for the strategic foothills leading to Sanaa on Saturday, backed by Arab air strikes.At least 20 bodies from both sides were seen on the battlefield, a local official told Reuters.Hadi arrived in the southern port city of Aden on Tuesday, a week after his government's formal return to Yemeni soil from Saudi Arabia.But he left the country again on Sunday, local officials said, en route to the annual United Nations General Assembly meeting in New York. It remains unclear whether he will return again to Yemen or go back to Saudi Arabia.(Reporting by Noah Browning, Mohammed Ghobari and Mohammed Mukhashaf; Editing by Andrew Roche)

Iran-Saudi war of words heats up over hajj disaster-AFP By Ian Timberlake-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
Riyadh (AFP) - Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei demanded Saudi Arabia apologise Sunday for a stampede that killed 769 pilgrims at the hajj, as a war of words escalated between the regional rivals.Khamenei accused Riyadh of "a blame game", after the Saudi foreign minister said Iran was playing politics with tragedy."Instead of passing the buck and playing a blame game, the Saudis should accept their responsibility and apologise to the world's Muslims and the bereaved families," Khamenei said in comments reported by Iran's official IRNA news agency.About 400 protesters later chanted "Death to the treacherous House of Saud" outside the Saudi embassy in Tehran.Iranian leaders have been fiercely critical of Saudi authorities' handling of safety at the hajj, following Thursday's stampede during a ritual stoning of the devil in Mina, near the holy city of Mecca.Within hours, Khamenei blamed "improper measures" and "mismanagement" for the disaster.At least 144 Iranians died in the crush -- the highest confirmed toll among foreign nationalities. Tehran says 323 Iranians are missing.Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, addressing a UN development summit in New York on Saturday, said he wanted to "emphasise the need for swift attention to the injured as well as investigating the causes of this incident and other similar incidents in this year's hajj."Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir, also in New York for the UN General Assembly, said the Iranians "should know better than to play politics with a tragedy that has befallen people who were performing their most sacred religious duty."Saudi King Salman, whose official title is "Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques" in Mecca and Medina, ordered "a revision" of how the hajj is organised, and a formal Saudi inquiry is under way into the stampede.It was the worst disaster to strike the annual pilgrimage in a quarter-century."We will reveal the facts when they emerge. And we will not hold anything back," Jubeir said, adding the kingdom has a long history of devoting "tremendous resources" to ensuring a successful pilgrimage."I would hope Iranian leaders would be more sensible and more thoughtful with regards to those who perished in this tragedy, and wait until we see the results of the investigation."- Yemen, Syria tensions -Relations between Shiite Iran and Sunni-dominated Saudi Arabia were already severely strained by conflicts in Yemen and Syria, and an international agreement on Iran's nuclear programme.It is also not the first time Iranian pilgrims have been killed in Saudi Arabia. In 1987 Saudi security forces suppressed an unauthorised protest by Iranian pilgrims. An official toll gave the death toll as more than 400, including 275 Iranians.Iran has demanded that affected countries have a role in the stampede investigation, and on Friday Ayatollah Mohammad Emami Kashani said the running of the hajj "must be handed over to Islamic states."Such suggestions are "frankly ridiculous", columnist Rasheed Abou-Alsamh wrote in Sunday's Arab News, an English-language Saudi daily.He said criticism of the kingdom's hajj organisation is part of a "concerted campaign of defamation against Saudi Arabia by its enemies".The Saudi Press Agency over the weekend started a Twitter account, @spa_persian, to transmit official information in the Iranian language Farsi.Senior Saudi officials suggested the pilgrims were at fault for not following instructions.The interior ministry has said it assigned 100,000 police to secure the hajj and manage crowds at the event, which drew almost two million faithful.But pilgrims blamed the stampede on police road closures and poor crowd management, during searing temperatures.Hundreds of thousands of pilgrims were converging on a five-storey structure known as Jamarat Bridge to perform the stoning ritual when the stampede happened nearby."The police blocked all the roads, leaving us with only one route," said Hamza Musa Kabir, 55, of Kano, Nigeria.Kabir was in a procession heading towards the Jamarat Bridge when, he said, police let pilgrims returning from the stoning site use the same route."Because those returning were moving in the opposite (direction) of the surging crowd, there was a stampede," said Kabir, who became trapped under another man and had to disrobe to escape.The stampede was the second tragedy to cast a pall over this year's hajj.A massive construction crane collapsed on Mecca's Grand Mosque several days before and killed 109 people, many of them pilgrims.For years, the hajj was marred by stampedes and fires, but it had been largely incident-free for almost a decade after safety improvements and billions of dollars' worth of infrastructure investment.
AP Interview: Egypt's leader says country in 'ferocious war'-Associated Press By EDITH M. LEDERER and JOHN DANISZEWSKI-SEPT 27,15-YAHOONEWS
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Egypt's President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi said in an interview that the Mideast region needs to cooperate to defeat a worsening terrorist threat that has led to a "ferocious war" in Egypt and created the danger of some countries "sliding into failure."In a wide-ranging interview with The Associated Press Saturday night, el-Sissi also said that Syria should not be divided after its civil war, that the Egyptian military needs to be "augmented" to defeat terrorists fighting in the Sinai and Western Desert, and that efforts should be renewed to solve the Palestinian issue and expand Egypt's nearly 40-year-peace with Israel to include more Arab countries.Resolving the Palestinian question, he said, could "change the face of the region and ... bring about enormous improvement to the situation. ... I'm optimistic by nature and I say that there is a great opportunity."The 60-year-old former military chief, who ran for president and assumed office in 2014 after the army ousted his predecessor Mohammed Morsi the year before, spoke with AP at a New York hotel on Saturday night after he addressed a U.N. summit that adopted new development goals for the next 15 years. He will also attend the annual ministerial meeting of the General Assembly at U.N. headquarters that begins Monday.Speaking just days after pardoning and releasing two jailed Al-Jazeera English journalists in Cairo, el-Sissi said he is open to clemency to other journalists who have been tried and convicted in absentia. But he said he would only act within his powers as president and would also respect the prerogatives of Egypt's judiciary."Rest assured that we are always keen on sorting out issues and problems, especially those that relate to journalists and to the media personnel," he added.El-Sissi, speaking through a translator, said that regional security is in "its most vulnerable state.""Let it suffice to look at the map and find countries that are suffering from failure. There is an increase in the extremist groups. There is the problem of the refugees that are flowing into Europe. With all that in mind, we can sense how difficult and how complicated" the challenge is, he said."I don't want to say we are late in doing what we should have done, but (defeating the threat will require) a lot of effort, and not only a lot of effort but as a matter of fact it entails a good amount of understanding and cooperation from every country ... to restore the countries that are now sliding into this vicious cycle of failure."In that vein, the Egyptian leader cited what he called an "improving" relationship with the United States. Ties are "strategic and stable," he said.It has been a tumultuous period in Egypt. Longtime leader Hosni Mubarak was ousted in 2011 in the Arab Spring revolt that eventually led to the installation of the Muslim Brotherhood's Morsi as Egypt's first popularly elected president; he then was tuned out by the military amid another popular uprising."The last two years were a real test of the endurance and strength" of the ties with the U.S., el-Sissi said.Since then, Egypt has been fighting an insurgency by militants based in the Sinai who have pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group, and militants have carried out bombings and shootings against policemen and troops in Cairo and other cities.Security forces have cracked down hard on Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamists. Hundreds of Islamists have been killed and thousands arrested, and Morsi and other Brotherhood leaders have had death sentences issued against them in multiple trials. The trials and the crackdown have brought heavy criticism from human rights groups. El-Sissi's government contends the Brotherhood is complicit in violence, a claim the group denies, saying authorities want to crush them as a political opposition. Asserted el-Sissi: "The problem with the Muslim Brotherhood is not a problem between the government of Egypt and these people. The real problem is between the Egyptian people and the Muslim Brotherhood." He said the Brotherhood has given "a very bad impression" and Egyptians "are not able to forgive and forget."The Egyptian military, he said, "has always been a factor for stability" and should be strengthened because it faces "a ferocious war against terrorism and extremism ... Increasing the military capability of the Egyptian military means that it can strike a strategic balance" for the region.Referring to the civil war that has shattered Syria, the president said "we are very keen that Syria remains as a nation and as a state and does not divide into smaller states."He warned that the collapse of Syria would mean that all its weapons and equipment would fall into the hands "of the terrorists." If that happens, he said, the danger will not only hurt Syria but spill over to its neighbors and "will pose a serious threat to the rest of the region, and this is what we fear."Asked how extremists could be neutralized, he offered no immediate solution: "This is exactly the dilemma we are talking about."

THE FIRST JUDGEMENT OF THE EARTH STARTED WITH WATER-IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THE LAST GENERATION WILL BE HAVING FLOODING
GENESIS 7:6-12
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
GOD PROMISED BY A RAINBOW-THE EARTH WOULD NEVER BE DESTROYED TOTALLY WITH A FLOOD AGAIN.BUT FLOODIING IS A SIGN OF JUDGEMENT.
