Build up to WW3 Panetta ADMITTED supporting REBEL FORCES reassuring MIDDLE EAST allies ASSAD's fall Mr Panetta, speaking at the start of a week-long trip to the Middle East and North Africa, did not offer any new steps the US might take even as he renewed calls for a united international effort "to bring the Assad regime down." Helicopter gunships opened fire over Aleppo in Syria on Sunday and the thud of artillery boomed across neighborhoods as government forces and rebels fought for control of the city. "It's pretty clear that Aleppo is, I think, another tragic example of the kind of indiscriminate violence that the Assad regime has committed against its own people and in many ways, I think if they continue this kind of tragic attack on their own people in Aleppo, I think it ultimately will be a nail in Assad's own coffin. "That he's just assuring that the Assad regime will come to an end by virtue of the kind of violence they're committing against their own people," said Mr Panetta. "What Assad has been doing to his own people and what he continues to do to his own people makes clear that his regime is coming to an end. It's lost all legitimacy and the more violence he engages in, the more he makes the cast that that regime is coming to an end."

US wants world police after blowing millions on MidEast 'occupation'

Fresh report says that over $200 million spent by Washington to train Iraqi police have gone to waste. The US is now preparing to send hundreds of its own police across the world to help locals handle security. John Glaser from antiwar.com believes the plan is more about control and enrichment, than regional stability. Afghanistan is another drain for American taxpayers' money. The US is training local forces - but mass desertions from the ranks are hurting efforts to maintain stability. Analyst Jason Ditz attributes this to corrupt authorities and poorly-planned spending.

India hit by second huge power outage, this one larger than before
India hit by second huge power outage, this one larger than before
10:20
NEW DELHI (AP) -- India's energy crisis cascaded over half the country Tuesday when three of its regional grids collapsed, leaving 620 million people without government-supplied electricity in one of the world's biggest-ever blackouts. Hundreds of trains stalled across the country and traffic lights went out, causing widespread traffic jams in New Delhi. Electric crematoria stopped operating, some with bodies half burnt, power officials said. Emergency workers rushed generators to coal mines to rescue miners trapped underground. The massive failure — a day after a similar, but smaller power failure — has raised serious concerns about India's outdated infrastructure and the government's inability to meet its huge appetite for energy as the country aspires to become a regional economic superpower. Power Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde blamed the new crisis on states taking more than their allotted share of electricity. "Everyone overdraws from the grid. Just this morning I held a meeting with power officials from the states and I gave directions that states that overdraw should be punished. We have given instructions that their power supply could be cut," he told reporters. The new power failure affected people across 20 of India's 28 states — more than the entire population of the European Union plus Turkey. The blackout was unusual in its reach, stretching from the border with Myanmar in the northeast to the Pakistani border about 1870 miles away. Its impact, however, was <b>...</b> Related article

Typhoon Saola intensified rapidly today as conditions became ripe for the storm to gain intensity. At this time as it rolls North it very well could likely make it to a Cat 2 or 3 storm equivalent before impacting Taiwan, Southern Japan and Eastern China. Already the storm is being blamed for four deaths in the Philippines and have caused a slew of problems from power outages to closed roads and bridges. For a complete update on the storms effects please click the link below. www.westernpacificweather.com Meanwhile we continue to watch Damrey moving towards southern Japan as well. This storm remains dis-organized yet improving conditions may result in its increasing of intensity.

In Syria, the unfolding battle for the commercial capital - Aleppo - has turned into the focal point of the 16-month long conflict. Government forces are pushing to reclaim the country's largest city from the rebels - who control nearly half of its neighbourhoods. Three million people live in Aleppo and many are now fleeing, amid international fears of a looming massacre. Russia's accused foreign powers of fueling the bloodshed, by urging the rebels to fight on against Assad. The political leaders of the insurgency are calling for intervention, and shipments of heavy weapons from abroad. And revelations in the media this week claim that's already happening, via a secret base in Turkey. Author and journalist Afshin Rattansi says the flow of weapons into the hands of rebels will have dire consequences.

Indian Train Fire Kills 30 Passengers as They Sleep

At least 30 people have been killed, and 20 injured as a result of a fire that broke out on a Chennai-bound express train. The fire broke out in the early hours of Monday morning when most of the passengers were asleep. During news conference in Kolkata, India's Railway Minister Mukul Roy said that the injured had been moved to different hospitals. During the news conference Roy announced the amount of compensation that victims of the fire would receive from the Indian Railways: "The death of a man cannot be compensated with anything. However, from the railway side, we have already announced five hundred thousand rupees each for the deceased families as ex-gratia, one hundred thousand rupees for the serious and grievous injuries and 25000 rupees for the minor injuries and railway will also offer appointments for the dependents of the deceased, who have been died in that tragic incident," The Indian Railways is a vital national transportation grid for the country's 1.2 billion people, cramming 18 million people a day on to ageing trains. 20000 railway trains move daily and there 8000 railway stations. Decades of low investment, a patchy safety record and frequent delays mean that India has fallen far behind China in building a network fit for Asia's third largest economy. Roy commented that the one human error can have drastic affects. In addition there is a great need for technological support and help. Related article
