Taliban resurgence led by biggest attacks since 2001 To see more go to www.youtube.com Follow us on Facebook (goo.gl or Twitter (www.twitter.com The Taliban have claimed that yesterday's attacks on Kabul, the biggest since 2001, are just the start of their spring offensive. This incisive report asks: what does a future with the Taliban mean for Afghanistan? "For them it's not a peace process", Amrullah Saleh, former head of Afghan Intelligence tells us. A Taliban prisoner concurs, "if the foreign troops leave, the Taliban will come back to Kabul". Saleh is adamant that the Taliban's "maximalist agenda" will lead to civil war once the West leaves Afghanistan and that the Afghan government participating in empty talks serves no other purpose than political expediency. "Peace talks with the Taliban have always been used to demonstrate to the international community that President Karzai is one step ahead", Fawzia Koofi explains. An MP and single mother, she refuses to be cowed by Taliban aggression, despite facing death threats. A classified Nato report, based on 27000 interrogations, not only states that the Taliban believe their control of Afghanistan is inevitable, but also highlights the links between the Taliban and Pakistan. For many in Afghanistan there is real anger that after so much bloodshed in the country, Pakistan is left untouched. As the West searches for the ending to its Afghan story, for Afghanis it feels like they are just reaching another beginning. April <b>...</b>

Across Africa hundreds of thousands of people each year are left homeless when they are forcibly evicted from their homes by the authorities. In most cases evictions are conducted without any due process, consultation, adequate notice or compensation. Amnesty International has documented mass forced evictions in Nairobi, Accra, N'Djamena, Port Harcourt, Cairo and Harare in addition to other cities and countries across the continent. Forced evictions can have catastrophic effects, particularly for people already living in poverty. They do not just lose their homes and possessions, they also lose their livelihoods, their social networks and the basic services they rely on for survival. They struggle to find clean water, food and toilets. They struggle to find work and schools for their children. And they struggle to rebuild their shattered lives, often with no help or support from the governments that uprooted them. In March 212, thousands of slum dwellers from informal settlements across Africa rallied together to make their voices heard by housing ministers and heads of state during a week of action organized with Amnesty International and partner organizations. This Campaign video shows archive footage of forced evictions being carried out in various African countries. It also shows parades, concerts, and other events held in Kenya, Ghana, Zimbabwe and Egypt, as part of the Africa Week of Action against Forced Evictions where slum dwellers protested for the right to fair <b>...</b>

Protesters gathered in Brussels, Belgium on Wednesday to demand support for employment and poverty reduction, ahead of the informal European Union (EU) Summit scheduled on the same day. Measures to deal with deflation and attain growth are the core issues up for discussion at the informal EU summit. Germany, the largest economy in the EU as well as the eurozone, has insisted on cutting down the deficit and introducing structural reforms by debt recipient countries such as Greece. Labor unions and other social organizations throughout the eurozone held a joint protest two hours before the start of the summit next to the conference center. Rather than deregulation, the protesters want to see more growth and investment to push up the employment level. As the protest was organized temporarily the turnout was small. Bernadette Segol, chief of the European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC), said that her union has more than 60 million members throughout Europe. "We are coming here to say that growth will not come from the deregulation and flexibilization of the labor market. Growth will come from responsible central bank, from Euro bonds, from the financial transaction tax and green investment. That's our message," said Bernadette Segol. As Francois Hollande took office as the French President, many hoped that he could persuade EU policy makers to support economic growth and expand investment. They also hoped that their bill of financial transaction tax could be approved and <b>...</b>
