by QuestionGirl • 8:11 am

Relatives wept Saturday over the cruelly maimed bodies of 31 Muslim worshippers killed in a double bombing, and troops fanned out across one of India’s most volatile cities while the leader of the ruling party appealed for calm.

Authorities lifted a curfew in Malegaon, but said they remained alert, fearing revenge attacks. Two bombs rigged to bicycles exploded almost simultaneously in throngs of Muslims as they left Friday prayers at a mosque.

See where diplomacy will get ya?

Saturday September 9, 2006 12:31 PM

ROME (AP) - Syria has agreed “in principle” to let the European Union put troops on its border to help stem the flow of weapons into Lebanon, Italy’s prime minister said Saturday.

Prime Minister Romano Prodi said he had spoken with President Bashar Assad of Syria several times over the last few days.

“I reminded President Assad that the European Union has significant experience in training programs for frontier guards, and that the idea of an EU mission of assistance on the border between Syria and Lebanon would be an excellent signal of cooperation between Syria and Europe,” Prodi said in a statement. “President Assad gave me his accord in principle.”

IRAQI PM TO VISIT IRAN
by QuestionGirl • 7:50 am

This must fry George Bush’s ass…….

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) — Iraq’s prime minister announced plans to visit Iran on Monday, just days after his deputy returned from the country, accompanied by several top officials.

Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki will spend two days in Iran, the Cabinet said in a statement Saturday.

The trip “is to confirm the establishment of friendly and balanced relations based on common interest and respect of the sovereignty of the two countries without any interference in internal affairs,” the statement said.

This week al-Maliki’s deputy prime minister, Barham Saleh, visited Tehran as head of a delegation that included the minister of state for foreign affairs, and the ministers of trade, planning and finance.

In July 2005, former Iraqi Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari made a landmark visit to Iran, the first by an Iraqi premier since the 2003 U.S.-led invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein.

Iraq’s new Shiite leaders have close ties to Iran.
