DAY 18 MH370 - THE TELEGRAPH SAYS IT WAS A SEX FOR MURDER- ALLAH- 72 VIRGIN SUICIDE KILL APPARENTLY

Telegraph PIC- TELEGRAPH Are saying this was a SEX FOR MURDER (ALLAH) 72 VIRGIN MURDER KILL BY SUICIDE OF THE MH370-777-200ER.

Quote The team investigating the Boeing 777’s disappearance believe no malfunction or fire was capable of causing the aircraft’s unusual flight or the disabling of its communications system before it veered wildly off course on a seven hour silent flight into the sea. An analysis of the flight’s routing, signalling and communications shows that it was flown “in a rational way”.

An official source told The Telegraph that investigators believe “this has been a deliberate act by someone on board who had to have had the detailed knowledge to do what was done ... Nothing is emerging that points to motive.”

Asked about the possibility of a plane malfunction or an on-board fire, the source said: “It just does not hinge together..... [The investigators] have gone through processes you do to get the plane where it flew to for eight hours. They point to it being flown in a rational way.”

20.37 Blog post by the New Yorker entitled 'The End of the Beginning of the MH370 Mystery' on the false closure experienced by the relatives of the dead.

Quote We will no doubt hear that, for those whose loved ones vanished without explanation sixteen days ago, this moment represents some intimation of that elusive quantity known as closure, however painful its arrival. But that conclusion seems doubly false: too much about how and why their relatives died remains to be determined, and even that knowledge, when it eventually surfaces, will still feel insufficient to the scale of their losses. But, whatever closure consists of, it describes a process rather than a point; today, at least, that process can begin.

THE MISSING PLANE MH370 SITUATION AT 7:50AM TUE MAR 25,2014

Chinese families clash with police, slam Malaysia over lost plane
By Megha Rajagopalan and Al-Zaquan Amer Hamzah -MAR 25,14--Yahoonews

BEIJING/KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - Dozens of angry relatives of passengers on a lost Malaysian jetliner clashed with police in Beijing on Tuesday, accusing the Southeast Asian country of "delays and deception" a day after it confirmed the plane crashed in remote seas off Australia.About 20 to 30 protesters threw water bottles at the Malaysian embassy and tried to storm the building, demanding to meet the ambassador, witnesses said. Earlier, the relatives, many with tear-stained faces, had linked arms and chanted "Malaysian government has cheated us" and "Malaysia, return our relatives" as they marched peacefully and held banners.The relatives' grief and anger was unleashed on Monday night after Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak announced that Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, which vanished more than two weeks ago while flying to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur, had crashed in the southern Indian Ocean.Citing satellite-data analysis by British firm Inmarsat, he said there was now no doubt that the Boeing jet came down in the ocean in one of the most remote places on Earth - an implicit admission that all 239 people on board had died.Bad weather in the region far off Australia's western coast on Tuesday forced the suspension of the search for any wreckage, just as a series of satellite images and other sightings of floating objects had raised hopes that debris from the plane would be found.Malaysia's confused initial response to the Boeing 777's disappearance and a perception of poor communications has enraged many relatives of the more than 150 Chinese passengers and strained ties between Beijing and Kuala Lumpur.After Najib's announcement, Chinese Deputy Foreign Minister Xie Hangsheng demanded Malaysia hand over all relevant satellite analysis showing how Malaysia had reached its conclusion about the fate of the jet.

ANGER, GRIEF

A group reportedly representing families issued a statement describing the Malaysian airline, government and military as "executioners" who constantly tried to delay and deceive them."We will take every possible means to pursue the unforgivable crimes and responsibility of all three," said the statement on the microblog of the Malaysia Airlines MH370 Family Committee.The relatives protesting in Beijing held signs that said: "MH370, Don't let us wait too long!" and "1.3 billion people are waiting to greet the plane". They wore matching t-shirts that said: "Best of luck to MH370, return home safely.""We've waited for 18 days and still, you make us wait. How long are we supposed to hang on?" a woman surnamed Zhang told Reuters.The protest ended after a few hours, when police told protesters to get on buses and escorted them away.Criticism of the Malaysian national carrier mounted after some relatives of those on board first received the news that the search for survivors was over in an SMS from the airline, which said: "We have to assume beyond all reasonable doubt that MH370 has been lost and none of those on board survived."At a news conference at Kuala Lumpur's international airport on Tuesday, company officials defended the move, saying the text message had only been sent as a "last resort" to ensure that some relatives did not hear the news first from media."This is a time of extraordinary emotions and we fully understand," said Malaysia Airlines Chairman Mohd Nur Yusof. "In fact, we really feel for the next of kin. In terms of how they react, it's emotional."Asked whether he would resign over the crisis, the airline's chief executive, Ahmad Jauhari Yahya, said that would be a "personal decision" to be made at a later time.

WRECKAGE COULD HOLD KEY

Flight MH370 vanished from civilian radar screens less than an hour after taking off on March 8. No confirmed debris from the plane has been found since.Investigators believe someone on the flight may have shut off the plane's communications systems. Partial military radar tracking showed it turning west and re-crossing the Malay Peninsula, apparently under the control of a skilled pilot.Recovery of wreckage could unlock clues about why the plane had diverted so far off course. Theories range from a hijacking to sabotage or a possible suicide by one of the pilots, but investigators have not ruled out technical problems.An international air and sea search in the area on Monday spotted several floating objects that might be parts of the plane and an Australian navy ship was close to finding possible debris, Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said.But the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) said gale-force winds, heavy rain and low cloud meant planes could not fly safely to the zone on Tuesday, and waves of 6 meters (20ft) or more forced the navy ship from the area.The search site is far from commercial flight paths about 2,500 km (1,550 miles) southwest of Perth, a region of deep, frigid seas known as the Roaring 40s where storm-force winds and huge waves are commonplace.Malaysia Airlines said in a statement that it would make arrangements to fly relatives to Australia once it had approval from the investigating authorities.Australia's Immigration Minister Scott Morrison said his department was working with the airline and Beijing to facilitate visas. Relatives would be given tourist visas with the usual fees waived, he said.

COSTLY, DIFFICULT INVESTIGATION

Najib's announcement opens the way for what will be one of the most costly and difficult air crash investigations ever. Normally, an official investigation can only begin once a crash site has been identified. That would give Malaysia power to coordinate and sift evidence.A government source told Reuters that Malaysia would lead the investigation, but hoped other countries, especially Australia, would play a major role.The United States said it was sending an undersea Navy drone to Australia, in addition to a high-tech black box detector, to help in the search.The so-called black boxes - the cockpit voice recorder and flight data recorder - record what happens during flight. Black boxes carry locator beacons but they fade out after 30 days.Najib said Inmarsat had performed further calculations on data gleaned from faint pings picked up by satellite that initially only narrowed the search area to two massive arcs.That was not enough for some of the relatives. "There was no evidence," a protester at the Malaysian Embassy surnamed Wang told Reuters. "It was just based on analysis from the satellite data and nothing found. Why would we believe it?

They are the executors!': Grieving families of Flight MH370 passengers launch scathing attack against 'despicable' Malaysian authorities-Mar 24, 2014 21:41-By Anthony Bond-MIRROR-The strongly-worded family statement comes after they were told the missing Malaysian Airlines flight must be assumed lost with everybody on board dead

The families of passengers onboard missing Flight MH370 have tonight launched a scathing attack against the Malaysian authorities.A strongly-worded statement released by the families comes after they were told the missing Malaysian Airlines flight must be assumed lost with everybody on board dead.As reported by Sky News, it reads: "During the past 18 days since March 8, when Malaysia Airlines announced that it had lost contact with MH370, Malaysia Airlines, the government of Malaysia, and the military forces of Malaysia have concealed, delayed and hidden the truth from the relatives and the people of the world."This despicable act aimed to fool the relatives of the 154 Chinese passengers has devastated us physically and mentally, while misleading and delaying the rescue operation, wasting a lot of manpower, material resources and leading to the loss of precious rescue time."If the 154 of our loved ones have lost their lives, then Malaysia Airlines, the government of Malaysia and the military are really the executors."

FOR ALL THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS FOLLOW OUR LIVE BLOG

At an emergency press conference today, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said that it is "with deep sadness and regret" that new data shows the flight "ended in the southern Indian Ocean".He also said everybody on board is presumed dead.Families were left heartbroken after having their worst fears confirmed by a text message from Malaysia Airlines saying 'nobody survived'.Relatives of the 239 passengers and crew could be heard screaming and shouting after being told the plane went down in the Indian Ocean.Paramedics were sent in to try and comfort the devastated families, who are being offered flights to Australia, where searches will continue.Malaysia Airlines sent this text message to relatives: "Malaysia Airlines deeply regrets that we have to assume beyond any reasonable doubt that MH370 has been lost and that none of those on board survived."As you will hear in the next hour from Malaysia's Prime Minister, we must now accept all evidence suggests the plane went down in the Southern Indian Ocean." Malaysia Airlines later added in a statement: "Malaysia Airlines did not ONLY send an SMS."The message was conveyed to all families face to face by our top management at the hotels."SMS and phone calls were made to those who are not in the hotels via our family support centre."We wanted to ensure that families are informed via all channels."The new information came after further tests of data by British-based satellite company Inmarsat, which concluded that MH370 crashed into the sea, thousands of miles off course.It wasn't close to any possible landing sites, said the PM, and was in the southern Indian Ocean to the west of Perth.Investigators are still searching for any debris from wreckage and, crucially, the black box.
Razak said families had been informed of the latest developments by Malaysia Airlines.He said: "The last two weeks have been heartbreaking. This news must be harder still."There will be a further press conference tomorrow with more details, he added, from the press conference held in Kuala Lumpur.

Malaysia says jet crashed in sea; bad weather halts search
By Lincoln Feast and Niluksi Koswanage -MAR 24,14-Yahoonews

SYDNEY/KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - Bad weather and rough seas on Tuesday forced the suspension of the search for any wreckage of a missing Malaysian jetliner that officials are now sure crashed in the remote Indian Ocean with the loss of all 239 people on board.Citing groundbreaking satellite-data analysis by British firm Inmarsat, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said on Monday that Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, which vanished more than a fortnight ago while flying to Beijing from Kuala Lumpur, had crashed thousands of miles away in the southern Indian Ocean.Recovery of wreckage could unlock clues about why the plane had diverted so far off course. Investigators suspect a possible suicide, but have not found any sign of a motive.A massive international air and sea search in the area on Monday spotted several floating objects that might be parts of the plane and an Australian navy ship was close to finding possible debris, Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott.But the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) said gale-force winds, heavy rain and low cloud meant planes could not fly safely to the zone on Tuesday, and heavy seas meant an Australian navy ship was leaving the area." AMSA has consulted with the Bureau of Meteorology and weather conditions are expected to improve in the search area in the evening and over the next few days. Search operations are expected to resume tomorrow, if weather conditions permit," AMSA said in a statement.The search site is about 2,500 km (1,550 miles) southwest of Perth, in one of the most remote parts of the world."This is a remote location, far from any possible landing sites," Malaysia's Najib said. "It is therefore, with deep sadness and regret, that I must inform you that, according to this new data, Flight MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean."

COSTLY DIFFICULT INVESTIGATION

Najib's announcement opens the way for what will be one of the most costly and difficult air crash investigations ever. Normally, an official investigation can only begin once a crash site has been identified.That would give Malaysia power to coordinate and sift evidence. Malaysia has faced heavy criticism over the progress of the search and its informal investigation, especially from China which had more than 150 citizens on board the plane.Chinese Deputy Foreign Minister Xie Hangsheng immediately demanded Malaysia hand over all relevant satellite-data analysis showing how Malaysia had reached its conclusion about the fate of the jet.The United States said it was sending an undersea Navy drone to Australia, in addition to a high-tech black box detector, to help search the cold, deep and stormy waters.The so-called black boxes - the cockpit voice recorder and flight data recorder - record what happens during flight. Black boxes carry locator beacons but they fade out after 30 days.Flight MH370 vanished from civilian radar screens less than an hour after taking off on March 8. No confirmed sighting of the plane has been made since.Investigators believe someone on the flight may have shut off the plane's communications systems. Partial military radar tracking showed it turning west and re-crossing the Malay Peninsula, apparently under the control of a skilled pilot.That led them to focus on hijacking or sabotage, but investigators have not ruled out technical problems.

SMS TEXT

Some relatives of those on board first received the news that the search for survivors was over in a Malaysia Airlines SMS message which said: "We have to assume beyond all reasonable doubt that MH370 has been lost and none of those on board survived."There were hysterical scenes at the Beijing hotel where many of the relatives of those on board were staying.Najib said Inmarsat had been performing further calculations on data gleaned from faint pings picked up by satellite that initially only narrowed the search area to two massive arcs.The Inmarsat analysis had narrowed the search area "but it's still a big area that they have to search", said Stephen Wood, CEO of All Source Analysis, a satellite analytic firm.(Additional reporting by Ben Blanchard, Megha Rajagopalan and Joseph Campbell in Beijing, Stuart Grudgings, Michael Martina, Siva Govindasamy and A.Ananthalakshmi in Kuala Lumpur; Jane Wardell in Sydney and Matt Siegel in Perth; Editing by Mark Bendeich)

Residents fear higher death toll after Washington state mudslide
By Jonathan Kaminsky 9 minutes ago-MAR 25,14-Yahoonews

ARLINGTON, Washington (Reuters) - Ruth Hargrave held back her emotions as she gazed at an aerial photograph of her neighborhood showing how it had looked before a monstrous landslide ripped through it, killing 14 people and leaving scores more missing.The 67-year-old retiree, who fears the home she bought near the tiny town of Oso some 15 years ago was among the dozens swept away, conjured images of her neighbors buried in the muck."Right here is the firefighter whose wife and baby granddaughter are missing," Hargrave told Reuters as she pointed to houses now swept away by the cascading mud.Hargrave's community in this rural stretch of Washington state is bracing for a higher death toll as up to 176 people remain missing, and emergency officials have expressed doubts about finding any more survivors.Pete Bellomo said he feared his daughter, Shelley, and her longtime partner, Jerry, would not be found alive."No, no, I don't think there's any chance of that ... but I haven't been informed of anything yet," Bellomo told the Seattle Times newspaper.The slide tore through an area near Oso, one of a number of small communities dotting a stretch of two-lane highway along with farm stands, gas stations and craggy views of the Cascade Range. Fisherman ply the North Fork of the Stillaguamish River for steelhead and logging trucks run east toward Darrington.

TREACHEROUS CONDITIONS

A crude dam of mud and rubble dumped into the river by the slide was building up in the area along State Route 530, about 55 miles northeast of Seattle.President Barack Obama has signed an emergency declaration ordering U.S. government help to supplement state and local relief efforts after the mudslide and flooding.Several dozen homes were believed to have sustained extensive damage in the slide, officials said. More than 100 properties were hit by the cascading earth, 49 of which had a house, cabin or mobile home on them. At least 25 of those homes were believed to have been occupied all year round."Family members are grieving, trying to focus on finding missing loved ones or working through the process of rebuilding what was lost," Washington state Governor Jay Inslee said.There were more than 100 rescuers on the ground during the day on Monday, some with dogs, others using earth-moving equipment. Aircraft were also used to scan the debris.The rescue operation was often treacherous, with quicksand-like conditions forcing workers to suspend their efforts late on Sunday. Some had to be dragged to safety from the thick mud.No survivors have been pulled out since Saturday.On Monday, an elderly couple stood across from the police department building in Arlington, about 10 miles southwest of the disaster site, waiting for an update on the search effort.The couple, who declined to give their names, were hoping for some word of their daughter, whose house had been directly in the path of the avalanche.The announcement was postponed. They walked away somberly.(Writing by Eric M. Johnson in Seattle; Editing by Gareth Jones)

Houston ship lane remains shut as cleanup drags on; Exxon cuts output
By Erwin Seba - MAR 25,14-Yahoonews
TEXAS CITY, Texas (Reuters) - The closure of the vital Houston Ship Channel looked set to extend to a fourth day after the Coast Guard struggled to finish cleaning up after an oil barge spill on Monday, threatening to force deeper production cuts at local refiners.Earlier on Monday, the Coast Guard had told ship operators that it should be able to reopen the waterway later in the day, resuming at least some supply of crude oil to more than one-tenth of the nation's refining capacity."We will begin the process of a tapered ... not a floodgate resumption of marine traffic," Captain Brian Penoyer, commander of U.S. Coast Guard sector Houston-Galveston and captain of the Port of Houston, told reporters on Monday."We anticipate re-opening the Houston Ship Channel as soon as we can," he said.However the Port of Houston was still shut by evening, officials said, with the queue of waiting vessels growing to more than 90.Penoyer explained that traffic can't move again until there's no more oil in the water to cling to ships and be carried further. Also, any ships that were touched must be cleaned before moving through water deemed sufficiently clean.The closure of the channel on Saturday has led to a queue of more than 90 vessels trying to move into or out of the Gulf of Mexico. Shipping delays forced Exxon Mobil Corp to cut production at the nation's second-largest refinery.Exxon said production at its 560,500 barrel per day Baytown, Texas, refinery had been cut on Monday due to the closure of the Houston Ship Channel. The company expects further production cuts by mid-week if the channel remains shut.

INVENTORIES CONSIDERED AMPLE

Analysts on Monday were largely unconcerned, noting that ample inventories in the region provide a cushion for refiners.But a senior engineer at a Houston-area refinery that depends on crude deliveries through the ship channel was concerned about the requirement that the water be cleaned of any thick fuel oil before ships run back and forth to ensure they don't track it further upstream or into the Gulf."We're toast," the engineer said. "I would say this is a big problem. Any delay is bad, but three days or more is really bad because we use the channel to bring crude and products in and out."The ship channel was shut on Saturday after a collision between a Kirby Inland Marine oil barge and a cargo ship, spilling some 4,000 barrels, or 168,000 gallons (636,000 liters), of residual fuel oil. The channel allows oil barges and cargo ships to sail from the Gulf Coast to refiners and terminals further inland.Penoyer said the thick viscosity of the oil made it recoverable by skimmers.A total of 46 ships were waiting to leave the port of Houston and 47 ships were waiting to come in, the Coast Guard said on Monday afternoon. Penoyer said a typical day in the channel includes movement of 60 to 80 large ships - tankers, freighters, containers and cruise ships - and 300 to 400 tug and barge movements.A warning to mariners issued by the Coast Guard on Sunday said portions of the Houston channel and its offshoots to Texas City and Galveston, Texas, along with a portion of the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, could be closed through March 29 or longer, depending on the requirements of a cleanup.Five ships waited to come into the ports of Texas City and Galveston, Texas, and 12 ships waited to leave the ports, the Coast Guard said.Kirby Inland Marine is operated by Kirby Corp.Penoyer said Kirby "immediately" stepped forward to take responsibility for the response costs by hiring the cleanup crews. Cleanup crews have pumped all of the remaining fuel oil from the barge, which has been refloated and moved to a different position near the site of the collision in the channel.Marathon Petroleum Corp. declined on Monday to discuss operations at its 451,000-bpd Galveston Bay Refinery and 80,000-bpd Texas City refinery. Royal Dutch Shell's joint-venture 327,000 bpd Deer Park refinery was evaluating supply impacts and had contingency plans to mitigate them, a spokeswoman said.Fewer than 10 oil-covered birds have been recovered for cleaning, according Texas wildlife agencies.(Reporting by Erwin Seba in Houston, Selam Gebrekidan in New York, Terry Wade in Orlando; Editing by Jeffrey Benkoe, Stephen Powell, Bernard Orr and Cynthia Osterman and Michael Perry)

Russian military starts large training exercises in Siberia: agency-MAR 25,14--Yahoonews

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia's military launched training exercises on Tuesday for its rocket forces in Siberia, Interfax news agency reported, amid increased tensions with the West over Moscow's annexation of Ukraine's region of Crimea.A spokesman for Russia's Strategic Rocket Forces said around 10,000 troops would take part in the March 25-29 exercises in western Siberia's Omsk region and Orenburg in the southern Urals, more than 2,000 kilometers (1,240 miles) from Russia's border with Ukraine.Earlier this month, Russia staged a military exercise involving 8,500 soldiers near its border with Ukraine after the toppling of that country's pro-Moscow president Viktor Yanukovich amid a popular uprising and violent street clashes.The crisis in Ukraine has sparked the biggest confrontation between Russia and the West since the end of the Cold War.NATO's top military commander said on Sunday Russia had built up a "very sizeable" force on its border with Ukraine.NATO's Supreme Allied Commander Europe, U.S. Air Force General Philip Breedlove, also said Moscow may have ex-Soviet Moldova's mainly Russian-speaking separatist Transdniestria in its sights after annexing Crimea.(Reporting by Vladimir Soldatkin; Editing by Gareth Jones)

G8 summit in Sochi becomes G7 event in Brussels
Today @ 21:45-MAR 24,14-By EUOBSERVER

EU Council chief Van Rompuy has said the G8 summit in June in Sochi, Russia, will be held as a G7 meeting in Brussels instead without Russia. Brazil, India, China, and South Africa criticised Australia's idea to also exclude Russia from a G20 meeting in Brisbane in November, however.

Van Rompuy: Russia has left the G8
Today @ 19:02-MAR 24,154-By EUOBSERVER
EU Council head Van Rompuy said Monday Russia "left in some way the G8" ahead of a G7 leaders' meeting in The Hague, referring to Moscow's annexation of Crimea. EU Commission head Barroso said the G7 will "condemn" Russia's actions and voice "readiness to take further [punitive] measures."

G7 warns Russia of more sanctions if Ukraine crisis escalates
By Steve Holland and Aleksandar Vasovic - Yahoonews

THE HAGUE/FEODOSIA, Crimea (Reuters) - U.S. President Barack Obama and major industrialized allies warned Russia on Monday it faces damaging economic sanctions if President Vladimir Putin takes further action to destabilize Ukraine following the seizure of Crimea.Leaders of the Group of Seven nations, meeting without Russia, agreed to hold their own summit this year instead of attending a planned G8 meeting in the Russian Olympic venue of Sochi, along the Black Sea coast from Crimea, and to suspend their participation in the G8 until Russia changes course.On a day when Kiev ordered its remaining troops to withdraw from Crimea and Russian forces captured a Ukrainian marine base and a landing ship in the region, leaders of the United States, Germany, France, Britain, Italy, Japan and Canada condemned what they called "Russia's illegal attempt to annex Crimea in contravention of international law".They also agreed their energy ministers would work together to reduce dependence on Russian oil and gas and increase energy security."We remain ready to intensify actions including coordinated sectoral sanctions that will have an increasingly significant impact on the Russian economy, if Russia continues to escalate this situation," they said in a joint statement.The G7 leaders, who met on the sidelines of a nuclear security summit in The Hague, said they would convene again in Brussels in early June, the first time since Russia joined the G8 in 1998 that it will have been shut out of the annual summit of industrialized democracies.They also urged the International Monetary Fund to reach a rapid agreement with Ukraine to unlock urgently needed financial aid for the country's shattered economy.Obama, who has imposed tougher sanctions on Moscow than European leaders over its takeover of the strategic Crimean peninsula, told reporters: "Europe and America are united in our support of the Ukrainian government and the Ukrainian people"."We're united in imposing a cost on Russia for its actions so far," he said of the visa bans and asset freezes slapped on senior Russian and Crimean officials.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov played down the G8 snub.

"If our Western partners believe the format has exhausted itself, we don't cling to this format. We don't believe it will be a big problem if it doesn't convene," he told reporters.

RESISTANCE ENDED

In Washington, both Republicans and Obama's fellow Democrats said they were disappointed the G7 had not gone further.In the Senate, which is considering an aid package to Ukraine this week, lawmakers said Russia should be barred permanently, not temporarily, from the G8.A State Department spokeswoman highlighted the economic damage Russia has already suffered due to its action in Crimea, a Russian-majority region, after the fall of Ukraine's pro-Russian president to months of mass protests."The Russian stock market's down 20 percent this year already. That's the worst performing index in the world," spokeswoman Maria Harf told reporters. "That's $75 billion of market value wiped away, due in large part to the power and reach of our sanctions."The Russian currency is near an all-time low as investors have lost confidence in the economy and fled into dollars."Earlier on Monday, Russian troops forced their way into a Ukrainian marine base in the port of Feodosia, overrunning one of the last remaining symbols of resistance. They later stormed and captured a Ukrainian landing ship, firing warning shots and stun grenades. No casualties were reported in either incident.In Kiev, acting president Oleksander Turchinov told parliament the remaining Ukrainian troops and their families would be pulled out of Crimea in the face of "threats to the lives and health of our service personnel".That effectively ends any Ukrainian resistance, less than a month since Putin claimed Russia's right to intervene militarily on its neighbor's territory.White House officials accompanying Obama expressed concern at what they said was a Russian troop build-up near Ukraine and warned that any further military intervention would trigger wider sanctions than the measures taken so far.One U.S. official said Moscow had massed some 20,000 soldiers near the border. Russian intervention in eastern or southern Ukraine would be the clearest trigger for additional sanctions, as would violence in Crimea, another official said.NATO also fears Putin may have designs on Transdniestria, a part of another former Soviet republic, Moldova.Russia has said it is complying with international agreements on troop movements and has no plans to invade.

RUSSIA-UKRAINE TALKS

In what has become the biggest East-West confrontation since the Cold War, the United States and the European Union have imposed personal sanctions on some of Putin's closest political and business allies. But they have held back so far from measures designed to hit Russia's wider economy.Obama also discussed the crisis at a meeting in The Hague with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who has voiced support for Ukraine's sovereignty but refrained from criticizing Russia.The West wants Beijing's diplomatic support in an effort to restrain Putin but while Xi called for a political solution, he did not harden China's position towards Moscow.Russia formally annexed Crimea on March 21, five days after newly-installed pro-Moscow regional leaders held a referendum that yielded an overwhelming vote to join Russia. Kiev and the West denounced the annexation as illegal.In one sign of a possible easing of tension, Lavrov agreed to hold a first meeting with his Ukrainian counterpart, Andriy Deshchytsya, on the sidelines of the nuclear security summit.The first 50 out of 100 observers dispatched by the pan-European OSCE security watchdog arrived in Ukraine on Monday to monitor potential trouble spots and defuse tensions. Russia relented late last week and agreed on a mandate after prolonged wrangling, but the monitors will not be allowed to enter Crimea.

FURTHER COSTS

Western officials are now focused less on persuading Putin to relinquish Crimea - a goal that seems beyond reach - than on deterring him from seizing other parts of Ukraine, which was under Moscow's control within the Soviet Union until its break-up in 1991.Persuading Europeans to sign on to tougher sanctions could be difficult. The EU does 10 times as much trade with Russia as the United States, and is the biggest customer for Russian oil and gas. The EU's 28 members include countries with widely varying relationships to Moscow.But German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the EU's most powerful leader, has taken a tough line with Putin and supported EU moves to reduce the bloc's long-term dependence on Russian energy.Despite the disruption to East-West relations, Washington wants other diplomatic business with Moscow to continue. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry held talks with Lavrov after meeting the head of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, overseeing the destruction of Syria's toxic stockpile in action sponsored jointly by Washington and Moscow.Russia hit back symbolically at Canada, announcing personal sanctions against 13 Canadian officials in retaliation for Ottawa's role in Western sanctions so far. Moscow has already taken similar measures against senior U.S. Congress members but not yet European officials.(Additional reporting by Anthony Deutsch, Jeff Mason, Justyna Pawlak and Andreas Rinke in The Hague, Gabriela Baczynska in Simferopol, Natalia Zinets in Kiev; writing by Paul Taylor; editing by Mark Heinrich)

Austrian politician compares EU with 3rd Reich-MAR 24,14-Yahoonews

VIENNA (AP) — An Austrian far-right politician under fire for saying that Hitler's rule may have been more liberal than European Union regulations on Monday acknowledged that he also disparaged blacks during a speech at a presentation of a book written by a fellow right-winger.Andreas Moelzer initially denied saying that Europe risked turning into a "conglomerate of Negroes ... where chaos multiplies (through) mass immigration." He admitted doing so after a German newspaper posted a voice recording of his comments on Internet.Earlier in the day, Jewish Community leader Oskar Deutsch and Eva Glawischnig, the head of Austria's Greens party, demanded that Moelzer withdraw his candidacy to the EU parliament for saying that the European Union is a dictatorship that makes the Third Reich look "possibly ... liberal."Both comments were made last month but were reported only recently. Moelzer said he used the Third Reich comparison to point to EU over-regulation and that his anti-black comments were "inappropriate."Moelzer is on the far-right fringe of his FPO party, which has made huge gains over recent years with a stridently Eurosceptic, anti-corruption and anti-foreigner message. It now regularly polls as the most popular of all Austrian parties.

03/24/2014 - VATICAN INSIDER -St. John XXIII, patron saint of Christian unity?-Representatives of the Orthodox Church have seen Roncalli as the protector of ecumenism since the days of the Second Vatican Council-ANDREA TORNIELLI

vatican city

Influential representatives of the Orthodox Church were among the first to recognise John XXIII’s saintliness in the days of the Second Vatican Council. They even wanted to proclaim the good Pope a “patron” saint of the ecumenical path. Italian journalist and essayist Stefania Falasca has just published a book about this based on testimonies gathered during the procedure for the canonization cause. “Giovanni XXIII, in una carezza la rivoluzione” (which roughly translates as: “John XXIII, a revolution came with a caress”) runs through the history of Roncalli’s canonization, explaining the reasons and pastoral opportunities that led Francis to approve, pro gratia, the full canonization of his great Lombard predecessor.In convening the Second Vatican Council, John XXIII took on the task as Successor of Peter, to make it clear to all Churches that the journey towards full unity between all baptised Christians could not be put off any longer. “This is not an ideological ecumenism that wants to gloss over differences inherited from the past, but an ecumenism of truth and charity,” Falasca writes. The desire expressed since the days of the Council for a return to unity, does not aim to bring about a forced uniformity but create “a building site for the future of the Church.” This is not to be based on emotions and sentiments but on “one, common baptism and the same faith in Jesus Christ.”Among those who also saw this passion for Christian unity as a reflection of the Good Pope’s holiness, were some of the Orthodox Church’s foremost representatives, who played prominent roles in the post-conciliar period, Falasca writes.There was one key figure in particular who testified the enthusiasm John XXIII inspired within the Orthodox world long before his canonization was officially decided: Dutch cardinal Johannes Willebrands (1909-2006). He played a leading role in the development of Catholic ecumenism, right from the days of Vatican II. In 1960 John XXIII called him to form part of the Secretariat for promoting Christian Unity led by the Jesuit cardinal Augustin Bea. In his statement for John XXIII’s canonization process, Falasca quotes Willebrands saying that the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople, Athenagoras, was the first to refer to John XXIII quoting the Gospel passage: “Fuit homo missus a Deo cui nomen erat Johannes” (“There came a man who was sent from God; his name was John.”)“The solution to the Church’s separation from the brothers in the mission which the Pope had found by opening the Church’s arms, turned into something concrete, a common sentiment, first of respect and then of genuine worship of the Servant of God,” Falasca writes and the customary visit by Orthodox delegations to John XXIII’s tomb in the Vatican became a sign of this great veneration. The very day after John XXIII’s death, Athenagoras recognised that “as a head of the Church who was driven by his love of Christ and despite his short reign, the deceased Pope traced a new path towards ecumenical dialogue, which for the Church is the prelude to Christ’s priestly prayer being put into practice.”

In the statement he gave for the late Pope’s cause, Willebrands said that when it came to the moment for Catholics and their separated brothers to choose a patron to drive the move towards Christian unity, Catholics put St. Josaphat (the Ukrainian Greek Catholic bishop who was honoured as a martyr of unity with the Successor of Peter) forward. It was the Russian observers who asked for Pope John to be considered as a candidate for the role of patron of the ecumenical movement.A year or so later, the Metropolitan of Leningrad, Nikodim, a prophetic figure of Russian Orthodoxy, apparently discussed the doctrine and the work Roncalli for Christian unity in his theology dissertation. Nikodim discussed his dissertation entitled “John XXIII Pope of Rome” on 15 April 1970 at the Moscow Theological Academy. In his academic analysis, the Russian Metropolitan referred to John XXIII as a saint, based on his obedience to the Mild Jesus as described in the Gospel and according to the Orthodox Church’s theological and Canonical criteria.Nikodim died of a heart attack in Rome on 5 September 1978 during a meeting with John Paul I. He was just 49 year old when he died and was in Rome representing the Patriarchate of Moscow in the official ceremonies and meetings for the start of the Pope John Paul I’s pontificate. Before dying, he addressed some words to the new Bishop of Rome, which John Paul I would refer to during his audience with the Roman clergy a few days later: “I assure you that never in my life have I ever heard such beautiful words…,” Luciani said. In an interview back in 2006, the Jesuit Miguel Arranz who interpreted at the meeting described those years as “a fleeting gift that the Church lost.” Back then, “the Successor of Peter’s role received concert recognition from the Eastern bishops. Their trips to Rome were real visits ad limina Petri. Governments would press them to go to visit the Pope, whom they trusted as children of a sister Church. Perhaps the successor of Peter’s ties with the Christians of those lands would eventually have found a way to consolidate themselves. Perhaps it was all just an illusion but at certain times a return to unity seemed so easy…” Now Pope Francis has decided to proclaim John XXIII a saint pro gratia, based on valid reasons which are a sound alternative to a scientifically and theologically proven miracle. One of the pastoral reasons Francis has decided to proclaim Roncalli a saint, is the modern-day relevance of his ecumenical vision. Pope Francis has mentioned the preferential option for the poor in a number of speeches, bringing him closer to his Orthodox brothers.In his interview with Italian newspaper La Stampa, Francis spoke about the meetings he has already had with a number of representatives of the Eastern Churches, saying: “I felt like their brother. They have the apostolic succession; I received them as brother bishops. It is painful that we are not yet able to celebrate the Eucharist together, but there is friendship. I believe that the way forward is this: friendship, common work and prayer for unity. We blessed each other; one brother blesses the other.” In his Apostolic Letter Evangelii Gaudium, Francis recommends “reaping what the Spirit has sown in them, which is also meant to be a gift for us.” Referring to the Church’s Orthodox brothers, Francis reiterates that “we Catholics have the opportunity to learn more about the meaning of episcopal collegiality and their experience of synodality.”According to Falasca, Francis’ upcoming trip to the Holy Land to meet the Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew (fifty years after the historic embrace between Paul VI and Patriarch Athenagoras), is not just a one-way Apostolic Visit by the Pope, it is a pilgrimage that both brother faiths are embarking on from the start, for the first time. This pilgrimage is a decisive step forward in the common awareness that the Churches will be “retracing Christ’s steps in the holy and glorious Sion, mother of all Churches.” Faiths will be able to invoke the support of St. John XXIII as patron saint - given that he will be canonized a month prior to the pilgrimage – in the hope that full ecclesiastical and sacramental unity will flourish once again between the Orthodox and Catholic Churches. They can only achieve this by putting aside political strategies and focusing on the Gospel, as Roncalli had suggested.

Monday, March 24, 10:15 PM MYT +0800 Malaysia Airlines MH370 Flight Incident - Media Statement 23

Note: The communication below was shared with the family members of passengers and crew of MH370
Malaysia Airlines deeply regrets that we have to assume that MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean. As you will hear in the next hour from Malaysia’s Prime Minister, new analysis of satellite data suggests the plane went down in the Southern Indian Ocean.On behalf of all of us at Malaysia Airlines and all Malaysians, our prayers go out to all the loved ones of the 226 passengers and of our 13 friends and colleagues at this enormously painful time.We know there are no words that we or anyone else can say which can ease your pain. We will continue to provide assistance and support to you, as we have done since MH370 first disappeared in the early hours of 8 March, while flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.The ongoing multinational search operation will continue, as we seek answers to the questions which remain. Alongside the search for MH370, there is an intensive investigation, which we hope will also provide answers.
We would like to assure you that Malaysia Airlines will continue to give you our full support throughout the difficult weeks and months ahead.Once again, we humbly offer our sincere thoughts, prayers and condolences to everyone affected by this tragedy.

Monday, March 24, 05:30 PM MYT +0800 Malaysia Airlines MH370 Flight Incident - Press Statement by Ministry of Transport, Malaysia

Introductory statement
The search for MH370 continues. Over the past few days, new leads from satellite data have focused our search and rescue operations in the southern corridor. Our partners continue to deploy assets to assist us, as we work to narrow the search areas.
1.    Operational update
Yesterday, 18,500 square nautical miles were searched in the Australian search area.Two orange objects approximately one metre in length and one white coloured drum were sighted by search aircraft, but remain unidentified and have not been conclusively linked to MH370.HMAS Success detected two radar targets within the search area, but could not locate the targets on further investigation of the area.Earlier today, a Chinese search plane reportedly sighted objects in the Australian search area. These objects are not in the vicinity of those which were identified by the Australian authorities last week.A few minutes ago the Prime Minister received a call from the Prime Minister of Australia, who informed him that an Australian search aircraft had located two objects in the Australian search area, one circular and one rectangular.HMAS Success is in the vicinity and it is possible that the objects could be received within the next few hours, or by tomorrow morning at the latest.Three search areas, totalling approximately 20,000 square nautical miles, have been identified for operations today. RCC Australia anticipates that 10 aircraft will be used.HMAS Success remains the only vessel in the search area. A number of Chinese vessels are expected to commence arriving within the search area on 25th March.3 aircraft - 2 from Japan and 1 from the UAE – have already departed from Subang today and are en route to the southern corridor.6 Malaysian ships, with 3 ship-borne helicopters, are now in northern part of the southern corridor. 10 Chinese ships are in the southern corridor, carrying out search and rescue operations. HMS Echo is currently refuelling in the Maldives and will be sailing to the southern corridor this evening.In the northern corridor, Turkmenistan have confirmed they have not had any sightings of MH370 on their radar. Each piece of information we receive from our partners in the northern corridor helps us to continuously narrow the corridor.
1.    Satellite images
New leads into MH370’s possible location have come from satellite data. This was one of the four tools we identified that could narrow the search area, along with surveillance radar data, increasing surface and air assets, and bringing in more technical experts.The most recent images were obtained by French satellites, which captured radar images of potential objects in the vicinity of the southern corridor on 21^st March. These images were received by Malaysia on the evening of the 22nd March, and were relayed to RCC Australia on the morning of the 23rd March, as they are leading the search in that particular area of the southern corridor.This morning we have received a further set of images from French satellites, this time captured by cameras. These images were taken yesterday and have been relayed to RCC Australia.
2.    Family briefings
Yesterday, the high-level team met with families in Beijing for more than eight hours. The families asked many questions, and made detailed requests for radar readings and other data. Some of these questions could not be answered, and some of the data they requested was still being held by the investigation, as is standard procedure in investigations of this sort.After meeting with the families for a total of more than twelve hours, and taking hundreds of questions, the high-level team has returned to Kuala Lumpur to discuss the matters raised at the meetings. They will return to Beijing tomorrow to continue.The briefings in Kuala Lumpur over the last two days went smoothly, and the families responded as positively as could be expected, with the families engaging with representatives from the relevant authorities.It has always been our intention to keep the families as fully informed as possible. We continue to do so.
3.    Specific questions
There are a few specific questions I would like to respond to.On the police investigation, we can confirm that the police have interviewed more than a hundred people, including families of both the pilot and co-pilot.
As far as the transcript is concerned, the technical committee is considering releasing it and we will keep you informed about the decision.The Inspector General of the Police will attend tomorrow’s press conference to answer further questions on the investigation.We can also confirm that MH370 was carrying wooden pallets. However, there is as yet no evidence that these are related to the wooden pallets reportedly sighted in the Australian search area.
4.    Concluding remarks
The search for MH370 has taken us halfway around the world. At the moment there are new leads, but nothing conclusive. Our thoughts continue to be with the families who are still waiting for news. In the meantime, we are grateful for the on-going co-operation shown by our partners in this multinational search.

THE WORLD CITIZENS WANT THIS DECEPTION STOPPED GO ON LAND TO THE NORTHERN MUSLIM COUNTRIES THAT ARE ALIGNED WITH IRAN.AND THAT 'S WERE WE WILL FIND THE MISSING PEOPLE.

THE MISSING PLANE MH370 SITUATION AT 12:03AM MON MAR 24,2014

HLN HAD A PHYCIC ON PREDICTING IN ABOUT 3 WEEKS IT (THE MISSING PLANE) WILL BE SOLVED.WE WILL SEE IF SATAN IS LEADING THIS WOMEN TO REVEAL THE DECEPTIVE TRUTH. OR IF SHE WILL JUST DECIEVE US.THE ONLY REASON I PUT HER REMARKS ON IS BECAUSE IT GOES WITH MY KIDNAPPING THEORY.SHE THINKS THEY WERE HIGHJACKED.AND KIDNAPPED-SOME TAKEN TO A DISCLOSED PLACE.

Lisa Williams said that her powers are telling her that some of the passengers are still alive and are being held in an undisclosed location. She added that she knew this because she was attempting to contact MH370′s lost passengers for their living relatives.“I do believe that it actually crashed, and I see a lot of trees,” Williams revealed. “I think there is a larger organization behind this that is leading us off track with this debris.”“Do you think we’re going to get an absolute resolution?” Hutt asked Williams.Williams said that she was just informed by the voices that the mystery behind the plane’s disappearance will be finally resolved “within the next three weeks.”

I GOTTA ADMIT MY KIDNAPPING THEORY MIGHT BE CORRECT.THAT THE 20 FREE SCALE WORKERS WERE HIJACKED AND KIDNAPPED FOR THEIR DEFENCE-NANOTECH-MICROCHIP IMPLANT SECRETS.AND BECAUSE THEY WORK FOR 20 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES DEFENCES. WHICH MAKES ANY ISLAMIC ISRAEL-WEST HATERS-WANT THE NUCLEAR SECRETS FROM THESE FREESCALE WORKERS.SO THEY USE THE NUCLEAR SECRETS AGAINST ISRAEL AND THE WEST.

AND SHE THINKS THERES TREES WERE THE PLANE CRASHED.AND I HAVE ALWAYS BEING SAYING.GET OVER TO THOSE NORTHERN ISLAMIC COUNTRIES AND BLITZKEG THEM WITH PLANES.SINCE I TO BELIEVE THEY ARE ON LAND.SO MY GUESS IS THAT IRAN AND OTHER MUSLIM COUNTRIES WITH IRAN SET THIS WHOLE THING UP TO KIDAP THE 20 FREESCALE WORKERS.WE WILL SEE IF THE TRUTH DOES EVER COME OUT.

MAYBE ISRAEL KNOWS SOMETHING ABOUT IRAN KIDNAPPING THE MH370-777-200 PLANE.AND THEY WILL GO AFTER IRANS NUKE SITES AS A RESULT.INTERESTING I JUST PUT THAT STORY ON TODAY.MAYBE ISRAEL IS READY TO NUKE IRANS SITES. BEING THEY ARE TAKING ALL OF THEIR EMBASSY MEMBERS FROM AROUND THE WORLD OUT OF THE NATIONS AND BACK TO ISRAEL.I KNOW SOMETHING IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN BIGTIME.I JUST GOT THAT FEELING.

I GO BY THE BIBLE WITH MY THEORIES.I KNOW BY THE BIBLE THE ARAB/MUSLIMS AND RUSSIA AND COUNTRIES WILL BE COMING AGAINST ISRAEL AND THE WEST. MAYBE GOD IS USING ME THREW SATANS PUPPET LISA WILLIAMS TO HELP GET THIS MYSTERY SOLVED.I HOPE.AND SO WERE NOT DECIEVED BY THIS CNN OCEAN KILL THEORY.

Obama to try to rally world to isolate Russia-By JIM KUHNHENN 1 hour ago-MAR 24,14-Yahoonews

THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — President Barack Obama delved into a day of delicate diplomacy Monday as he sought to rally the international community around efforts to isolate Russia following its incursion into Ukraine.Hours after arriving in the Netherlands for a nuclear summit, Obama held one-on-one talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping. China has often sided with Russia in disputes with the West, but U.S. officials have been appealing to Beijing's well-known opposition to outside interference in other nation's domestic affairs.Obama treaded carefully in statements with Xi before their meeting, saying only that they planned to discuss the situation in Ukraine."I believe ultimately, that by working together, China and the United States can help strengthen international law and respect for the sovereignty of nations and establish the kind of rules internationally that allow all peoples to thrive," Obama said in a subtle appeal for Chinese support.He added that he and the Chinese leader would also seek to "work through frictions that exist in our relations" on matters like human rights and maritime disputes.Xi, for his part, pointed to areas of potential cooperation with the U.S. as he settled in for what Obama described as a wide-ranging session. "It is like a menu — and a rich one at that," Xi said through an interpreter.Obama's meeting with Xi opened a week of international travel where crisis in Ukraine tops the agenda. After arriving in the Netherlands on a sunny and brisk Monday morning and meeting with Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, Obama asserted that the U.S. and Europe stand together behind Ukraine.No issue commands more of Obama's and Europe's attention than Russia's annexation of the Crimean Peninsula and the fear that Moscow could decide to expand further into Ukraine. But Obama also is attempting to use his weeklong trip to personally reconnect not only with Europe but Asia and the Middle East, all strategically crucial regions with their own tensions and qualms about the U.S.Obama's meeting with Xi highlighted another tricky front in U.S. international relations and comes just a day after The New York Times and the German magazine Der Spiegel reported that the U.S. National Security Agency had hacked into the servers of Chinese telecommunications giant Huawei.Meanwhile, China has been wary of Obama's efforts to increase U.S. influence in the Asia Pacific region. The U.S. has also called for restraint in China's maritime territorial disputes with Japan and its Southeast Asian neighbors.China, a frequent Russian ally, abstained a week ago from voting on a United Nations Security Council resolution declaring Crimea's secession referendum illegal. With Russia vetoing the measure and the 13 other council members voting in favor, China's abstention served to isolate Moscow internationally.Nuclear terrorism was the official topic as Obama and other world leaders streamed in to a convention center in The Hague for a two-day nuclear summit. It opened Monday with Japan announcing it would turn over to the U.S. more than 700 pounds of weapons-grade plutonium and a supply of highly-enriched uranium, a victory for Obama's efforts to secure nuclear materials around the world.But the headline event of the day is a Ukraine-focused, hurriedly scheduled meeting of the Group of Seven industrialized economies — the U.S., Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy and Japan.On Tuesday, Obama plans a joint meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and South Korean President Park Geun-hye, a session preceded by a sit-down with Prince Mohamed bin Zayed, crown prince of Abu Dhabi, the richest emirate in the United Arab Emirates federation.In an interview with the Dutch newspaper de Volkskrant published before he arrived Monday, Obama says his message to European leaders is that Russian President Vladimir Putin needs to "understand the economic and political consequences of his actions in Ukraine."

Still, he said he does not view Europe as a battleground between the East and the West. "That's the kind of thinking that should have ended with the Cold War," he said. "On the contrary, it's important that Ukraine have good relations with the United States, Russia, and Europe."Discussion among Obama and his G-7 counterparts will center on economic aid to Ukraine, while at the same time seeking to segregate Putin from the exclusive group, which Russia usually joins in Group of Eight meetings.More broadly, the Ukraine crisis will test Obama's ability to forge a unified and forceful stance against Russia from European leaders who are alarmed by Putin's moves but whose economies are dependent on Russian energy and trade.In the interview, Obama conceded that the sanctions he has threatened against Russian economic sectors could have worldwide impacts.But, he added: "If Russia continues to escalate the situation, we need to be prepared to impose a greater cost."___Follow Jim Kuhnhenn at http://twitter.com/jkuhnhenn

Nato general warns about Moldova, Baltics-23.03.14 @ 22:42-By Valentina Pop

Brussels - Nato’s top general, Philip Breedlove, has warned that Russia has amassed enough troops on the eastern Ukrainian border for a new invasion and said Nato will mobilise troops to defend the Baltics if need be."The force that is now at the Ukrainian border - to the east - is very, very sizeable and very, very ready. You cannot defend against that if you are not there to defend against it. So I think we need to think about our allies, the positioning of our forces in the alliance and the readiness of the forces so we can be there to defend against it if required, especially in the Baltics," he said on Sunday (23 March) at the Brussels Forum, an event organised by the German Marshall Fund, a think tank.He noted that Russia could no longer be trusted to respect national borders when it carries out military exercises."We saw several snap exercises executed in which large formations of forces were brought to readiness and exercised and then they stood down. And then as we have all seen, a snap exercise with large formations brought into readiness and boom, into Crimea, they went, with a highly prepared force," Breedlove said.He also warned the current number of troops amassed along the eastern Ukrainian border may pose a threat for Moldova and its separatist region of Transniestria, which last week requested to be incorporated into Russia on the Crimean model."There is absolutely sufficient force postured on the eastern border of Ukraine to run to Transnistria if the decision was made to do that and that's very worrisome,” he said."When we talk about threat in the military, we marry capability with intent. We know the capability absolutely exists to do that and cause that problem. We see some of the same rhetoric used before going into Crimea so if that's the first indication of intent, that's very worrisome," he added.What Nato states may consider doing is to move troops and hold war games closer to Russia, the general indicated.He noted that the military alliance already moved fighter jets from Italy and the UK to Poland and the Baltic states and moved some of its warships into the Black Sea.Breedlove said Nato has been trying to partner with Russia, but Moscow is now "behaving like an adversary."His last contact with his Russian counterpart, general Valery Gerasimov, was on the day after the invasion of Crimea began."I will try to maintain that line of communication, we will insist from each other truth in what we speak. Sometimes we don't see truth in the same way," he said.In Moscow, deputy defence minister Anatoly Antonov said Russia is in compliance with international law on troop limits and said international inspectors had conducted missions in the last month to check on Russian troop movements."We have nothing to hide there," Antonov was quoted by state news agencies as saying.

Ukraine withdraws military from Crimea-Peninsula’s deputy premier says all troops have either joined Russians or are leaving disputed territory-By AFP March 24, 2014, 2:08 pm 0-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL

KIEV — Ukraine on Monday ordered its troops to withdraw from Crimea following the flashpoint peninsula’s seizure and annexation by Russia in response to the fall in Kiev of a pro-Kremlin regime.
The dramatic announcement came just as world leaders gathered in The Hague for a nuclear security summit dominated by concern over the worst East-West crisis since the Cold War.A top commander in NATO had warned on Sunday that the Western military alliance was carefully watching massive Russian troop formations on the eastern border of Ukraine that could theoretically make a push across the vast ex-Soviet country at any point.Ukraine’s acting president Oleksandr Turchynov told top lawmakers that both servicemen and their families would now be relocated on the mainland.“The national security and defense council has reached a decision, under instructions from the defense ministry, to conduct a redeployment of military units stationed in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea,” Turchynov said in nationally televised remarks.“The cabinet of ministers has instructions to resettle the families of soldiers as well as everyone else who today is forced to leave their homes under the pressure and aggression of the Russian army’s occupying forces.”Crimea’s pro-Kremlin deputy premier Rustam Temirgaliyev told Russia’s RIA Novosti state news agency that “all Ukrainian soldiers have either switched to the Russian side or are leaving the territory of the Crimea.”Turchynov’s announcement came less than a month after Russian President Vladimir Putin won authorization to use force in response to the February 22 ouster of pro-Kremlin president Viktor Yanukovych regime by more nationalist leaders who are seeking a closer alliance with Europe.Ukraine’s heavily outnumbered forces had been steadily losing ground on the Black Sea peninsula and saw their main airbase outside the regional capital Simferopol stormed by Russian troops on Saturday.The assault by Russian forces and pro-Kremlin militias continued on Monday with the fall of a Ukrainian naval base in the east Crimean port of Feodosia.Turchynov praised his country’s soldiers despite heavy criticism by some Crimean commanders of confusion and indecision reigning among the army and naval brass in Kiev over the past month.“Despite the enormous losses, the Ukrainian soldiers in Crimea did their duty,” said Turchynov. “Most importantly, they gave the Ukrainian armed forces the opportunity to prepare their defenses, to put the military on full combat alert, and to launch a partial mobilization.”Several top officials had warned on Sunday that they feared an attack by Kremlin forces on the heavily Russified regions of southeastern Ukraine was now imminent.Commando-style operation.Russia’s latest surprise assault in Crimea came in the pre-dawn hours on Monday and involved both armored personnel carriers and stun grenades.The Ukrainian defense ministry said Russian paratroopers were lowered onto the Feodosia naval base from four helicopters in a commando-style operation in which guns were fired in the air and stun grenades strewn across the facility in intimidation.Several military trucks were seen leaving the base less than two hours later with some Ukrainian marines whose hands had been tied.The Ukrainian statement said two commanders were injured when they were kicked in the face before being taken away in a helicopter in an unknown direction.An AFP reporter saw the blue-and-yellow Ukrainian flag above the base taken down and replaced with Russia’s tricolour.The ministry later said that between “60 to 80 marines were captured” in violation of a prior agreement with the Russians.The base in Feodosiya housed Ukraine’s only marine battalion. The country’s marine union said it was home to an elite unit that was part of the navy.News agencies in Moscow cited the Russian defense ministry as saying that 189 Ukrainian military facilities and bases in Crimea were flying the Russian flag by Saturday.

British Lords want more power over EU laws
Today @ 10:15-mar 24,14-euobserver-By Benjamin Fox

BRUSSELS - National parliaments should be able to initiate reviews of existing EU law, according to a report by the UK parliament.The paper, published on Monday (24 March), by the House of Lords' EU committee, says domestic lawmakers should have more power in the EU legislative process."There should be a way for a group of like-minded national parliaments to make constructive suggestions for EU policy initiatives," it notes."We would envisage a ‘Green Card’ as recognising a right for a number of national parliaments working together to make constructive policy or legislative suggestions, including for the review or repeal of existing legislation, not creating a (legally more problematic) formal right for national parliaments to initiate legislation."The Lisbon treaty introduced a regime allowing national lawmakers to formally object to a proposed EU law.If objections to a proposal are submitted by at least a third of the bloc's national assemblies, a so-called "yellow card" is triggered, and the European Commission is expected to review the proposal.In the four years since the Lisbon treaty came into force, the yellow card has only been used twice, however.A number of national parliaments have also accused the commission of ignoring their objections.Frustration with the system reached a head last autumn when the commission ignored a yellow card by 18 parliaments on plans to establish a European Public Prosecutor’s Office.The proposal, which would establish an EU-level body with the exclusive power to investigate and prosecute criminal offences relating to the EU's financial interests, is now being negotiated by MEPs and ministers.The second yellow card was issued against a draft law affecting the right to strike, which the commission abandoned in 2012 citing opposition from governments."Technical deficiencies have meant that the [yellow card] procedure has not been as effective as hoped," said the Lords' report.It added that when a yellow card is created, the EU executive should be required to "either drop the proposal in question, or substantially amend it in order to meet the concerns expressed".Peers also want to increase the deadline for national chambers to issue an opinion on a legislative proposal, from 8 weeks to 16 weeks.Giving national parliaments the power to block unwanted European legislation is one of the reforms demanded by UK prime minister David Cameron as he seeks to re-write the UK membership terms of the bloc. The plan has also been backed by a handful of other governments.
