The Haqqani network is still fighting against NATO forces in Afghanistan. Last week the United States designated the group as a terror organisation and pushed through a resolution at the UN targeting it for global sanctions. Western leaders believe the network is based across the border in Pakistan and may even to some extent be protected there. But if you ask Hina Rabbani Khar, Pakistan's foreign minister, she will tell you her country has nothing to do with the group, and resents implications that it is not doing enough to fight extremists: "My country has lost as much blood as anyone else ... I am opposed to the narrative that Pakistan is somehow not doing enough," she says.

Join our group: www.facebook.com A moving documentary about life in Palestine. According to Holy Scripture the coming world leader (the anti-Christ) will rise to power through promises of saving the world from economic, military, and political issues that many consider unsolvable. The seven year peace accord will bring a temporarily resolution to the Middle East crisis. As part of this peace accord, a mutually compromising solution between the Jews and the Arabs regarding Jerusalem and its holy sites will also be reached. The Temple Mount located on Mount Moriah, in Jerusalem, is sacred to Jews (their temple stood there before being destroyed by the Romans in 70 AD), and the Mount is also sacred to Muslims, their Holy shrine the Dome of the Rock, is located on the Temple Mount today. Bible Scripture states that through the Antichrist's peace accord the Jews will be enabled to rebuild their Holy Temple for the first time since 70 AD. Within this Temple the Jews will revive their ancient rituals of animal sacrifice to God. (see Daniel 8:23-25; 9:27; 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4 Its important to understand - it is the ENEMIES of the Jews/mankind who are killing innocent people. This is not a "Jewish" conspiracy - look deeper and understand, prophecy is being fulfilled & the only enemy is satan.

And now that Obama is safely ensconced back in the White House it has been announced that his first International trip will be a historic three day tour of South East Asia from the 17th to 20th November. He will be the first US President to visit Burma where he will meet President Thein Sein and opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi. This stop off will coincide with the summit of the Association of South East Asian Nations in Cambodia, where leaders from China, Japan and Russia will also attend. He will also visit Thailand and Cambodia. This lady in the capital Yangon is looking forward to the visit she said "Since Obama is similar with our country name "Burma", people love him a lot." The trip will no doubt raise concerns from the Human Rights organisation that Obama is going ahead with the visit despite recent increasing sectarian violence against the Rohingya in western Myanmar that has drawn concern from the United States and European Union.

Grieving survivors describe Afghan massacre; US military war crimes & Genocide against Pashtuns in Afghanistan Reporter Yalda Hakim of Australia's SBS network has become the first western journalist to visit the villages where a US soldier allegedly killed 17 people. In a remarkable report she talks with some of the survivors and some Afghan guards on duty at the military camp from where Staff Sergeant Robert Bales left on his alleged killing spree. The video at the top of this story is Hakim's account of her journey to the remote villages near Kandahar and what she was told. Bales is now held at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas and has been charged with 17 counts of premeditated murder. The events of that March night in a rural area some 20 kilometers from Kandahar are being investigated by both the US military and Afghan authorities. But much remains unknown. Many Afghans, including some of the survivors that night, believe more than one US soldier was present in the two villages where the killings took place. Others speak of seeing a single American soldier leaving Camp Belambai that night The US military says there is no evidence that more than one man was involved in the shootings. Bales has not entered a plea. The killings made headlines around the world but at times it seemed the victims were ...

Syria National Council Picks Christian Communist as Leader 9-Nov-12 George Sabra To Head SNC Syrian opposition group chooses George Sabra as leader The opposition Syrian National Council has elected a retired geography teacher and left-leaning political veteran as its new president. George Sabra, a prominent Syrian dissident for decades, fled the country this year. The Syrian National Council chose its latest leader at a meeting in Doha on Friday. The umbrella opposition group, based in neighboring Turkey, held a ballot among its 41-member general secretariat - with George Sabra winning 28 of the votes. Sabra, a prominent Christian member of the Syrian opposition for decades, takes over from Abdelbaset Sieda, after losing out to him in the previous SNC leadership contest in May this year. Mohammed Farooq Taifoor of the Muslim Brotherhood was elected as Sabra's deputy. The veteran member of the Syrian Democratic People's Party, called the Syrian Communist Party until 2005, immediately appealed for international assistance in the country's conflict. "We need only one thing to support our right to survive and to protect ourselves: we need weapons, we need weapons," Sabra told reporters after the vote. He also said he would "work with other components of the Syrian opposition to accelerate the fall of the criminal regime." To this end, the SNC will start talks with other opposition groups, including those based within Syria, on Saturday. The goal is to establish a wider ...

It was Argentina's largest anti-government demonstration in years. Up to 700000 people flooded the capital Buenos Aires and other major cities on Thursday to protest against the policies of President Cristina Kirchner. Their grievances include violent crime, inflation and alleged corruption - concerns which have seen the president's approval rating plummet, just a year after she easily won her bid for re-election. But Kirchner and her supporters say the protests are being organised by the wealthy elite minority and encouraged by a vociferous right-wing media.
