<p>After police raids that saw more than two dozen arrests, police have released a near-complete list of those charged in a year-long gang sweep linked to Mayor Rob Ford and an alleged crack cocaine scandal.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>A total of 224 charges have been laid against 44 people from Toronto, Windsor, Edmonton and Detroit after Toronto police launched <a href="http://www.thestar.com/news/crime/2013/06/14/dixon_road_raids_net_guns_and_cash_leaves_gang_significantly_downgraded_toronto_police_say.html">Project Traveller</a> — targeting what they say was a sophisticated guns and drug ring operated by the gang <a href="http://www.thestar.com/news/crime/2013/06/14/turf_of_alleged_gang_in_dixon_city_has_long_violent_history.html">Dixon City Bloods</a>.</p>

</div>
<div></div>
<div>
<p>The Star’s sources say at some point during the year long police probe, investigators became aware of the existence of a video appearing to show the mayor smoking crack cocaine and making homophobic and racially charged statements.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>Two Star reporters viewed the video on May 3, and published news of it two weeks later. Ford has said he does not smoke crack cocaine and the video does not exist.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>On Monday, police released the names for 35 of those charged, who range in age from 19 to 62. The names and alleged offences for an additional nine arrested people will be made public after they arrive in Toronto to face their charges, police said.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>Ten more suspects are still being sought. Police have not released their names.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>Of the 44 who have been arrested, five are female and 39 are male.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>Included on that list are Muhammad Khattak and Monir Kassim, who are pictured in a now infamous photo alongside Mayor Rob Ford and shooting victim Anthony Smith.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>Khattak, 19, who was also shot alongside 21-year-old Smith in March, is charged with participating in cocaine trafficking for the benefit of a criminal organization and trafficking in marijuana.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>Kassim, 20, is charged with trafficking in weapons and drugs for the benefit of a criminal organization, conspiracy to commit an indictable offence, theft under $5,000 and failure to comply. He was originally also charged with conspiracy to commit unauthorized possession of a firearm, but that charge no longer appears on his list of alleged offences.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>The house at 15 Windsor Rd. where the photo of the four men is believed to have been taken was one of several addresses targeted by a search warrant.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>A search warrant also targeted an apartment unit which, sources told the Star, Ford named as a location where the video could be found.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>The bungalow and the apartment unit do not appear to have been hit June 13, when dozens of officers in tactical gear raided several Toronto addresses in Etobicoke and North York, netting 28 arrests.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>The raids centred on a Dixon Rd. apartment complex that police allege is gang turf. Senior commanders including Chief Bill Blair have refused to confirm or deny that the raids are connected to Ford in any way, saying that the court system was the appropriate venue for evidence to be disclosed.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>Since the project began, 42 guns have been seized, 175,000 grams of drugs and $570,000 in cash, according to a release Monday.</p>

<p><strong>NAIROBI, Kenya, Jun 17 – Foreign Affairs Cabinet Secretary Amina Mohammed said on Monday that plans are at an advanced stage for Kenya to start repatriating Somali refugees to their country.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Mohammed said a major conference to agree on modalities of repatriating the over one million Somali refugees will be held in Nairobi in August.</strong></p>
<p>“For now I am happy because about 50 percent of them [refugees] are willing to voluntarily return. I can assure you that we will do it in an orderly and most humane manner which upholds the dignity to our visitors,” she said at a breakfast meeting hosted in honour of ambassadors from Asian countries.</p>
<p>“We hope you will all help us finalise this activity of taking the [Somali] refugees back to their country,” the Secretary asked the envoys.</p>
<p>The conference will be organised by Kenya, Somalia and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.</p>
<p>The International Organisation for Immigration will also take part in the conference which follows another held in London last month and attended by President Uhuru Kenyatta.</p>
<p>Mohammed explained that only 600,000 refugees are registered by the Kenya government although there are one million Somali refugees in Kenya. During the conference held at Lancaster House on May 7, Kenyatta said the refugees at the Dadaab camp were ‘untenable’ as he called for speedy resettlement.</p>
<p>He detailed that apart from the overwhelming number of refugees, there was a security threat in the East African region due to the situation in Somalia. Kenya in 2011 deployed about 5,000 troops to fight militia groups and help in restoring peace and stability in Somalia.</p>
<p>During the conference, Somalia appealed for support in security, justice and public financial management in which the international community agreed that political stability was the anchor point in securing the country that has experienced decades of instability.</p>
<p>There was also an agreement that the return of refugees and those displaced will be resettled once the security situation is improved. The delegates agreed that further details would be discussed during the Nairobi conference which will among other points focus on the resettlement process.</p>

<p><strong>A Historical Perspective on the Azerbaijan &#8211; Armenia Conflict, and the Ensuing Dangers for Turkey by Prof.Muhammad Shamsaddin</strong></p>
<p>Answering to a reader who asked me whether Turkey’s foreign policy is correct and pertinent as regards the Caucasus caldron (and mainly the Azerbaijan – Armenia conflict), I felt the need to expand.Similarly with Cyprus, the Armenia / Azerbaijan affair turned out to be today’s Turkey’s foreign policy’s weakest point. This is due to the idiotic and self-contradictory Turkish foreign policy that has been pursued during the last 15 years.One doesn’t need a Ph.D. in Astrophysics to understand that if one fails to help one’s own friends, one contributes to the enemy’s agenda in the best possible manner.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>To make the difference, back in March 1995, in a public speech organized by the renowned film director Halit Refig, and addressed to the Turkish elite, top businessmen, ministers, ambassadors, generals, professors and administrators, I called for a new era of Turkish expansion that, in its initial phase, would comprise of a Turco-Kurdo-Azeri state, a development that would inevitably trigger the parallel dissolution of Iran. Troubles would be produced in the Iranian provinces of East and West Azerbaijan that are almost exclusively populated by Azeris; Turkey would occupy the territory and by so doing Ankara would first re-establish territorial continuity with Baku, and in the process change dramatically the regional balance after the early Armenian &#8211; Azerbaijani wars in 1988-1993.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>More importantly, this development would lead to the union of Turkey and Azerbaijan in one state that would also comprise other Iranian provinces with diverse minorities, Kurdish, Lori, Gilani, Mazandarani, Turkmen, and Azeri, thus bringing Turkey east of Iraq, south of Caspian Sea, and in territorial continuity with Turkmenistan. This would be step 1 in the formation of an Asiatic Turkic Republic, which would later comprise of all five former Central Asiatic Soviet republics, Afghanistan, and Pakistan – a country that has an official language (Urdu) that contains thousands of Turkic words (Urdu is a Turkic word; in Turkish, it is Ordu, and it means ‘Army’ – this was the language of the Turkic origin soldiers that made strong the successive Asiatic Islamic empires east of Iran: Ghazna, Delhi, and Mughal).</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>There could not be worse nightmare in the world for the villainous, rogue and malicious English, French, Americans, and Israeli administrations. Iran would be totally decomposed, and with the subsequent secession of Baluchistan and Khuzestan, Fars would be left as a Shia enclave within a huge state and deprived of any Oil resources. This would cancel once forever all US – UK – Israeli plans for an attack against Iran that mainly targets to break the integrity of the Euro-Asiatic landmass and destabilize Russia and China. Following to such developments, Yeltsin’s Russia which was an ailing state back in the 90s would be further destabilized, particularly in Caucasus, but also in Siberia, to the benefit of the new Turkic Asiatic state. India would be under terrible pressure, whereas China would find in this new state a 450-million strong partner that would be far more trustworthy than Russia.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>All this, said in 1995, was far more realistic to do than if it is attempted now; Iran was a pariah state, as it is now; Europe and America would be locked into a diplomatically impossible position – they would look paranoid to support Iran against NATO-member state Turkey. Iran was weak at the time, Russia too, and step 1 for this plan would be a matter one two weeks. The union of Turkey and Azerbaijan in one state would be the West’s most sinister disaster since the defeat of France in 1940 by Third Reich Germany.What is even worse is that this development would cancel many other evil Freemasonic projects that have been carried out ever since, are being carried out now, and will be carried out in the years ahead.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Caucasus is a very important key to the Freemasonic plans providing for the explosion of a nuclear war and the destruction of the Mankind. To save Armenia, today’s Russia is determined to use nuclear weapons at all costs. Russia’s decision is, however, against Russia’s own interests, and was instigated into the minds of the Russian elite by Anti-Russian elements maneuvered as per the antihuman needs of the World Freemasonry.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This Russian pro-Armenian bias is nothing new; Tsarist Russia was repeatedly misled by Western Freemasonic lobbies. The problem is far wider than Caucasus politics. By allying the Orthodox empire to the filthy excrement of Freemasonic deviation named ‘France’, Tsar Nicholas II signed his death warrant. The Russian Empire would not collapse in 1917, if prior to WW I, Tsar Nicholas II made an alliance with Germany, Austria-Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire, and if during WW I Russia invaded ailing Iran and India to eliminate the filthy English Freemasonic cholera from there.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This Russian pro-Armenian bias goes back to the times of the first tsars and the Russian expansion to the South. Today’s Russian territory had almost become Islamic under the Tatars; Western (Hanseatic) support to the tiny, quasi-isolated, Novgorod Orthodox Russian state (far in the north of today’s Russia) was a determinant factor for its survival. Further Western support helped the Northern Russian state to first attack and to finally destroy the Tatar Muslim state that covered most of Siberia. When the Ottomans recovered the insignia of the Caliphate from Cairo (1517), the Tatar state had already fallen, but the entire area of Caucasus area was controlled by the Ottomans (the western half) and the Iranians (the eastern half). The northern coast of the Black Sea that today belongs to both, Ukraine and Russia, belonged to the Caliphate; in fact, as the Ottomans already controlled the Balkans, the Black Sea was an Islamic lake: all the coastal lands belonged to the Caliphate.  </p>
<p>What happened afterwards is easy to assume; despite their traditional, deep-seated and total contempt for both, Orthodox Christianity as religion and the Russians as nation (more recently, after the fall of the USSR, they did not want them inside the European Union), the Freemasonry-controlled states of Northern Europe, mainly Prussia (NE Germany) and Sweden, and to lesser extent Holland and England, incited the Russians to expand to the South, when England and France played in parallel a double game against Islam that, unfortunately and to their prejudice, was not timely decoded by the Sultans and the Shahs.</p>
<p>As England and France had entered into colonial competition in several parts of the world (the competition was however well-contained diplomatically and the two countries never entered into a war, as the notorious Fashoda crisis clearly demonstrated in 1898), they induced the Islamic world’s most powerful emperors into a series of catastrophic bilateral wars. France struck an alliance with the Ottoman Empire and England made a pact with Safavid Iran; Ottoman fleet protected SE France’s territories (the coast of Provence) from attacks of the Austrian Emperor (Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation) who was in war with the Ottomans in Slovenia and Hungary, but at the same time, Istanbul entered into many wars with Iran. On the other hand, the Franco-Ottoman alliance was the vicious tool of French penetration in selected areas (Algeria, Alexandria, Lebanon) that centuries later proved to be France’s top targets in the Islamic Caliphate.</p>
<p>The numerous Ottoman – Safavid wars weakened both empires, and what is even worse is that they weakened their northern front. As per the terms of the Qasr-e Shirin agreement (1639), the present borders of Turkey and Iraq with Iran were demarcated. Stupidly enough, all the later Perso-Ottoman wars were fought in the Caucasus area, on the territory of today’s Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Abkhazia, Ossetia and Russia (Dagestan, Chechnya, etc.). The advances were always small, when the Ottomans advanced to the east or the Persians to the west. Never did the Ottomans reach the Caspian Sea, and similarly, the Persians were always unable to reach the Black Sea. But the ceaseless bloodshed destroyed both countries, and allowed the Russians to advance to the South. Only as late as 1829, were able the Russians to advance up to the territory of today’s Armenia and occupy it. Only few thousands of Armenians were living there at that time.</p>
<p>There is no doubt that the ancient Armenian state occupied parts of today’s Armenia and NE Turkey. Georgia was another state, named Iberia in Ancient Greek and Latin texts; it was located in the area of today’s Georgia. And Azerbaijan (today’s state plus the two Iranian provinces, East and West Azerbaijan, plus part of the Iranian province of Kurdistan) constituted the ancient Iranian province Adhurbataghan (it is actually the same name as Azerbaijan) which was the empire’s holiest province as it included the religious capital Adhar Ghushnap or Para Asp (Praaspa in Ancient Greek and Latin), today’s Takht-e Suleyman on the Zagros mountains at 3000 m high. So holy this location was that every newly enthroned Shah had to walk on foot from Tesifun (Ctesiphon), the main Iranian capital (which was located south of Baghdad in today’s Iraq), to Adhar Ghushnap, thus crossing a distance of 600 km across terrible mountains. Quite noticeably, Adhar Ghushnap was the only holy site in Iran that the invading Islamic armies did not destroy, as the monotheistic character of the authentic Zoroastrian faith, which was preserved here, was easily discernible. To close my reference to Adhurbataghan, I have to add that sometimes the northern part of Adhurbataghan was independent from Iran and formed a state known to Ancient Greeks and Romans as Albania (today’s Albania was called Illyria at those days!).</p>
<p>In the early Roman imperial times (100 years after Cleopatra’s death), Armenia, although a satellite and vassal state of Iran (as it had always been when it was not an Iranian province), started having a pro-Roman foreign policy. This did not bode well for the ill-fated nation that was known in the past for having fought against the Romans and on the Iranian side (notably under Tigranes II). After having been educated in Rome, Tigranes VI king of Armenia (reigned ca. 25 &#8211; 68) traveled to Rome in 58 CE to enter into alliance with Iran’s worst enemy and to be crowned by the Roman Emperor Nero. At the same time, Tigranes VI promoted the diffusion of Mithraism across the Roman Empire.</p>
<p>That royal trip to Rome proved to have got a permanent stamp on the ill-fated nation. Armenia was later christened and this led to a total change in the Iranian attitude toward the Armenians in whom they saw a renegade nation of Iran that tried to become a Roman fifth phalanx. With the formation of the Eastern Roman Empire, Armenia became a tool of the Christian Roman Anti-Iranian policy. As Armenia was far from Constantinople but close to central provinces of Iran, the Armenians underwent a terrible butchery for centuries due to the absurd and lunatic choices of their semi-barbaric kings. Armenian sufferings were the result of idiotic choices in terms of foreign policy and of the catastrophic pro-Roman stance. Contrarily to the falsehood diffused by colonial historiographers, the Armenian sufferings in the period 330 – 629 CE are not due to religious issues because the Sassanid Empire was quite tolerant and many diverse religions, even Buddhism, flourished on the imperial territory. The only persecuted religions were Manichaeism (Manawiyah in Arabic) and Nestorian Christianity; the former was viewed as an evident rejection of traditional Iranian values (although it was preached by an Iranian, Mani) and the latter was considered as culturally alien.</p>
<p>Gradually, since those days, Armenian populations used to move westwards to central provinces of the Eastern Roman Empire (in the area of Cappadocia in today’s Central Turkey) where they were most welcome. Armenians were always close to the throne of Constantinople and fought together with the Eastern Romans against the Sassanid armies for three centuries. </p>
<p>The rise of the Caliphate did not change anything in geopolitics; it is really hilarious and ironic how it happened that first Prophet Muhammad used very harsh words against Sassanid Iran, later Muawiyah was self-styled as ‘Khusraw of the Arabs’, and finally the Islamic Caliphate truly and fully replaced (or substituted to) Iran as the counterbalance par excellence to the Eastern Roman Empire in the geostrategic environment between the Mediterranean and India / Central Asia!</p>
<p>The Islamic Caliphate’s policy toward Armenia was indeed a prolongation of the Iranian attitude. Since a large part of the Armenians were killed in the period of the Eastern Roman – Sassanid Iranian wars (330 – 629 CE) and an even higher number migrated to the Eastern Roman Empire’s central provinces, Armenia’s old territory was depopulated and the Islamic armies advanced easily in Caucasus. As a matter of fact, Armenia was not a match to them; the real opposition to the Islamic armies in the Caucasus region was organized by Persian Zoroastrians who had left Fars and found refuge in the almost inaccessible, high mountains of South Azerbaijan (the term is equivalent to Occupied Azerbaijan, as it applies to the two Iranian provinces of East and West Azerbaijan that are located south of Independent Azerbaijan – bear in mind that today’s Azerbaijan totals 9-10 million people but there are ca. 25-30 million Azeris in Iran).  </p>
<p>It was then that Armenia’s old territory was further depopulated for more than a millennium, and gradually Muslim Azeris settled there. The so-called Bagratid Armenia is a modern academic construction that reflects historical revisionism, nationalistic irredentism, political chauvinism, Anti-Turkish racism, readiness for ethnic cleansing, and racial odium. In fact, the ancient territory of Armenia never accommodated an Armenian political institution after the arrival of the Islamic armies and before the Russian invasions.</p>
<p>The Armenian state was re-established farther in the west (on the territory of today’s NE Turkey), as a buffer-state between the Eastern Roman Empire and the Islamic Caliphate. In every single battle engaged between the Islamic armies and the Eastern Roman Empire, Armenians fought against the Muslims for many long centuries, thus preserving an abhorrent hatred of Islam among them.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, one has to take into consideration that Armenians are ‘Monophysitic’ in opposition to the Eastern Roman Orthodox Christians. Today’s ‘Monophysitic’ Christianity is represented mainly by a) most of the Copts, b) most of the Aramaeans of Lebanon, Syria, Palestine, Jordan, Iraq and Iran, and c) the Georgians. Few Armenians are ‘Monophysitic’ today. Of course, the term ‘Monophysitic’ is pejorative as it was given to the ‘Monophysites’ by the Constantinopolitan Orthodox Christians. To use a neutral term, one should describe them as Henophysitic. Monophysitic means someone who believes that Jesus had only one nature (instead of two, namely divine and human – which is the belief of the Orthodox Christians). Henophysitic would mean someone who believes that Jesus’ two natures were always united as one; this is the belief of the Christian Orthodox Copts and Aramaeans. There was terrible conflict within the Roman Empire about these issues for the entire period preceding the arrival of Islam. Useless to add that the ‘Monophysites’ never accepted this term, and continued down to our days to call themselves Orthodox, which of course was never accepted by the other Orthodox churches, and later by the Catholics and the Protestants, who kept viewing the ‘Monophysites’ as heretics.</p>
<p>But the Armenians were the only ‘Monophysites’ who sided with the Eastern Roman Empire against the Caliphate. Contrarily, the rest sided with the Caliphate in order to avoid the very high taxation imposed on them by the Eastern Roman Empire. This explains much about the early success of the Islamic armies; in all the Eastern Roman provinces where the ‘Monophysites’ were the majority, the Islamic armies were welcome; the local populations did not accept the new religion but the political institution – a different empire whereby they would not be, and they were not, taxed as heavily as earlier.</p>
<p>When the Seljuk Turks defeated the imperial Eastern Roman army at Manzikert (today’s Malazgirt in Eastern Turkey, ca. 150 km from the Iranian border) in 1071, the Roman Emperor Romanus Diogenes fell captive of the Muslims, and most of today’s Turkey’s territory was permanently lost for the Eastern Romans to the Muslims. Only few years later, the first Sultanate, called Rum Sultanate (because the Turks were very few and the outright majority of the indigenous population was Roman, with the Armenians being a small minority), was established (1077) and it immediately controlled most of today’s Turkey. Quite noticeably, the first Seljuk capital was located at Iznik (Nikaia, Nice) at 90 km distance from Constantinople!! This development is also due to the Christological quarrels and conflicts that prevailed for many centuries in Anatolia (Modern Turkey’s Asiatic part), following the early expansion of Islam. The movement of Iconoclasm (also known as Iconomachy, Aniconism, and La querrelle des icons in French) is certainly due to the vicinity of the Islamic faith, and the Iconoclasts totally rejected the use of icons, statues and type of representation in Christianity. The icon worshippers (Iconolatrous) finally prevailed (842 CE), but there had been even Eastern Roman Emperors and Patriarchs who supported the Iconoclastic party.</p>
<p>In fact, from the day of the official re-imposition of the cult of icons (842 CE) to the arrival of the Seljuk Turks (1071 CE), the populations of Anatolia were ceaselessly oppressed for religious reasons and in addition heavily taxed. This explains why the Rum Sultanate was overwhelmingly accepted by the non-Muslim majority of Greek-speaking Anatolian Eastern Romans. </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Armenians had very bad relations with all the Turkic groups that reached Anatolia and this occurred also with the Ottomans, the last group to arrive. As late as 1800, Ottoman cities with important Armenian minority were: Van, Erzurum, Sivas, Kayseri, Malatya, Izmir (on the Western coast). The Armenians were well-treated by the Sultans, and many Armenians served the Sublime Porte (in Arabic Bab al Aly – the Ottoman administration), but throughout the centuries the cursed, villainous and rancorous nation of the Armenians did not cease for a moment their Anti-Turkish and Anti-Islamic plots, schemes and conspiracies in close cooperation with the worst enemies of the Caliphate from the barbaric Crusaders to the cruel colonial powers of the modern times.</p>
<p>Following the Russian advance to the south, which was continually incited by the late 18th and early 19th century British and French diplomats, and after the Russians occupied the territory of today’s Armenia, the tsarist administrators carried out an unprecedented and extraordinary ethnic cleansing against the indigenous Azeris and the Kurds, kicking them to the southwest (Ottoman Empire) and to southeast (Iran). In addition, they welcomed Armenians from Iran and from the Ottoman Empire, and they resettled them in the territory that was not ‘Armenia’ anymore as it was inhabited by Azeris and Kurds since the beginning of the Islamic Era. In other terms, modern Armenia is a Russian fabrication, sort of Israel in the Caucasus area.</p>
<p>Soon afterwards, many French missionaries arrived in that Russian-occupied territory, which was ludicrously baptized ‘Armenia’ (of course the French traveled through Russia) and proselytized many Armenians through the bias of financial and political support. These proselytes accepted Catholicism (whereas fewer adhered to Anglican and Protestant heresies) and traveled to France for studies and for further anti-Ottoman, anti-Islamic and (ultimately) anti-Russian cooperation and conspiracy. In Paris, many Armenians became Freemasons and set up funds to finance their evil deeds across territories that did not belong to them. The French also helped the Armenians create an evil lobby of their own in the Russian / Soviet capitals (St. Petersburg and Moscow) from where they continually influenced the Russian / Soviet elite (working in parallel with the Anglo-French and the fake-Jeiwsh, Ashkenazi Khazarian Zionist lobby) against the Azeris, the Turks and all the Turkic nations and in favor of the Armenians who were not even Orthodox in their majority anymore – thus having no proper religious affinity with the Russians. Due to the strength of the 19th century French – Russian alliance (which was of course calamitous for Russia), the tsarist administration failed to detect the Anti-Russian character of the French-Armenian conspirers and connivers; the same situation still characterizes today’s Putin administration.</p>
<p>The two Armenian lobbies of France and Russia / Soviet Union coordinated their activities and founded further lobbies in England and the US, where they particularly collaborated with the Zionists since the early 1920s. Then, they launched the theory of the Armenian Genocide as a tool of their Anti-Turkish / Anti-Turkic / Anti-Islamic policies, because Ataturk’s Turkey had understood the mistakes of the Ottomans and therefore administered the correct remedy and sealed the country off, prohibiting any foreigner from moving free across the country – which is the worst damage one can do to the Freemasons, the Zionists and their tools, i.e. the Satanic states of France, England, America and Israel.</p>
<p>In the territory of today’s Armenia, there were many clashes between the indigenous Azeris and Kurds and the Armenian newcomers who were partially and discriminately protected by the foolish tsarist administration. Azeris and Armenians fought a ceaseless war during the period 1919 – 1923, when the two empires (Ottoman and Russian) had collapsed. Having made an alliance with the pseudo-kingdom of Iran (after they imposed a vulgar, stupid and trashy soldier as Shah Pahlevi in 1921), England sent soldiers across Iran to the Caucasus area to fight with the Armenians against the Azeris – so important the area was to them. At the same time, French and English missionaries tried to convert the Aramaean Christians and the Armenians to Catholicism and Anglicanism in order to destroy their traditions and culture, faith and identity and in the process turn them to tools of Anti-Turkish and Anti-Islamic policy.</p>
<p>On this background, and following the cruel and iniquitous wars (1988-1993) waged by the US – UK – France – collapsing USSR – Armenians against the Azeris of Armenia (who were still in 1988 a sizeable minority there), Turkey closed its borders with Armenia. This was the least that could be done, but to truly defend the national interests of Turkey, Ankara should have declared war against Armenia and invaded the small country in 1991 – at the very moment of collapse of the USSR (August 1991). The borders between Azerbaijan and Armenia are also closed because of the war, and the borders between Iran and Armenia are very short and do not allow for an easy movements, as the area is very mountainous and deprived of proper roads. So, practically speaking, Armenia’s only land way to the outer world has been through Georgia – which later closed their borders with Russia due to the recent war. This means that today’s Armenia is practically speaking sealed off from the rest of the world, and the main means of communication and transportation is through aviation.</p>
<p>To destroy Turkey and terminate Armenia’s isolation, the evil block of NATO, EU, UN, US, UK, and France alongside with the world’s Armenian and Zionist lobbies spent dozens of billions of dollars to curb Turkish resistance and force Turkey to open the borders with Armenia in 2008 and 2009. The measure would be absolutely useless for Turkey but very beneficiary for the ailing economy of the isolated, cursed state of discord and rancor.</p>
<p>At those days, I published some of my fiercest texts against Erdogan, asking that Turkey’s policy toward Armenia be linked to the immediate return of millions of expelled Azeris, and to a proper Human Rights record for the deviate, pariah state in Caucasus. In this regard, it is noteworthy that Armenia is a monstrous tyranny and the Yazidi Kurdish minority is terribly oppressed. In those articles, I called people to lynch Erdogan in the streets of Ankara, as this is what this corrupt high traitor and pseudo-Muslim would deserve. Turkey would have saved valuable time, had people acted purposefully and conclusively in order to eliminate Erdogan at those days. I warned that if the borders opened, Turkey’s worse enemies would cross through Turkey and turn the arid territory of impoverished Armenia (ca. 30000 m2 and 3.3 million people with US $ 5900 GDP per capita as of 2012, ranking 152nd in the world) to a basis of Anti-Turkish military activity with target the final detachment of NE provinces of Turkey (of an area at least as large as 150000 m2) and the formation of a Greater Armenia.</p>
<p>To end this brief perspective, I will state what Turkey can do now to best defend national interests, support allies, and implement a global vocation. Any war between Azerbaijan and Armenia is expected to bring Russia to the side of the Armenians due to the ongoing work of the US-Anglo-French – Armenian &#8211; Zionist lobbies in Moscow.</p>
<p>A war between Turkey and Armenia could be possible, but the stakes would be great because the hypocritical diplomats of NATO, EU, US, UK and France would accuse Ankara of leading the world to nuclear annihilation.</p>
<p>Turkey has still two strong options in Caucasus. The only prerequisite for them is the immediate elimination of Erdogan and his Saudi-paid, Freemasonic gangsters who impersonate the devout Muslims to fool the average Turks. Following the physical elimination of the top 3000 people of the Erdogan administration (involving top generals, diplomats, ministers, deputies, administrators and party apparatchiks), a resolutely Anti-Western nationalist statesman will rise to rule based on the alliance of the two major opposition parties, the nationalists and the democrats, with the nationalistic elements of the army and the economic elite. All those who have been accused of involvement in the Ergenekon case must be rewarded and propelled to the top of the new administration because the criminal Freemasonic Anti-Turkish forgery ‘Ergenekon’ constitutes the most complex, the most sophisticated and the most Satanic scheme that has ever been carried out against the Turkish state.</p>
<p>The first option is to fuel as soon as possible a revolution in Southern (Occupied) Azerbaijan in Iran and thus confuse and outmaneuver the whole trickery of the Western mass media about the supposed nuclear arms of Iran. With a Turkish victory and detachment of the NW Iranian provinces, the way will open for Turkey to merge with Azerbaijan, and become a leading Oil-exporting country – which is the worst nightmare of the English, the Americans, and the Zionists. In terms of military geography Turkey has a considerable advantage over Iran across the borderline, as all high places and surrounding peaks of mountains belong to Turkey.</p>
<p>The second option, which is the best, for Turkey is to enter into a strategic alliance with China and Russia, exit from NATO (as the majority of the Turkish officers demand and only few top generals and Erdogan’s bogus-Islamist government oppose) and enter into the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (military cooperation between Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and China). Thus, prior to the development, in a groundbreaking top trilateral meeting (Turkey, Russia and China), Turkey should demand the total abandonment of Armenia by Russia as a condition for this development which is of the utmost importance for Russia’s national interests, as it involves the immediate removal of NATO bases and nuclear heads from the Turkish soil. Subsequently and in exchange for the allocation of territories to serve as Russian nuclear bases in Turkey’s southeastern coastlands, Turkey will not face Russian opposition in dealing with the Erivan-based Armenian fifth phalanx in the way the ruling criminal gangsters understand.</p>

<p>Love-struck Thai Man, Chadil Deffy, 28, went ahead to marry his girlfriend after she died in a car crash, Deffy and girlfriend, 29-year old Sarinya Kamsook, were to be married this year.<br />
A wedding is considered the most special event of a woman&#8217;s life and it was no different for Sarinya. She was eagerly counting the days to the moment when she would finally say &#8216;I do&#8217;, along with the love of her life, but fate had other plans for the young couple. Merely days before the wedding, Sarinya was involved in a car crash, leaving her severely injured. She still could have been saved with timely medical attention. However, the doctors made her wait for 6 hours due to an overcrowded ICU instead of transferring her to another hospital. During this time, she succumbed to her injuries and passed away.<br />
Deffy and Sarinya had been together for 10 years, before they finally decided to settle down. They had postponed the wedding several times, due to busy schedules and the fact that Deffy wanted to complete his education before he got married.<br />
However, after Sarinya&#8217;s untimely death, he couldn&#8217;t let her go without fulfilling her deepest desire. So, he decided to marry her anyway.<br />
On the 4th of January, in Buddhist ceremony, Deffy married the corpse of his girlfriend. The event took place in Surin, a city in northern Thailand.<br />
During the ceremony, he expressed his devotion and deep love for Sarinya. Several friends and relatives attended the wedding, and it was even aired on national television in Thailand.<br />
The story, along with pictures from the wedding has now become an internet sensation, sparking several debates.<br />
The images show Deffy kissing the forehead of his girlfriend&#8217;s corpse and placing a wedding ring on her finger.</p>

<p>An IT contractor claims an off-the-cuff remark about a bacon sandwich cost him a £1,000-a-week job.</p>
<p>Clive Hunt, 58, says he was offered an eight-month NHS contract after attending an interview set up by recruitment firm Reed.</p>
<p>But he says he lost out on the job after he told a recruitment consultant he would ‘get the bacon sarnies in’.</p>
<p><a href="http://d383x9er2dcb4o.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/rac.jpg"><img src="http://d383x9er2dcb4o.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/rac-300x203.jpg" alt="rac" width="300" height="203" /></a>Mr Hunt, from Heywood, Greater Manchester, said he wasn’t aware he had offended Sharika Sacranie, 29, during a meeting at the firm’s city centre office until he received a phone call from a senior manager.</p>
<p>Mr Hunt said: ‘After we shook hands she said that she would come over to meet me on site with the other contractors and take us for breakfast.</p>
<p>‘My parting words to her were “I will buy the bacon sandwiches”.</p>
<p>‘Later, as I was driving home, Ms Sacranie’s manager called me and wanted to know about the racist remark I had made.</p>
<p>‘I said I had not made one and he said I had said that I would get her a bacon sandwich. But I only made the remark because she referred to breakfast.</p>
<p>‘The woman was of Asian appearance. I am not a racist, never have been. I wasn’t brought up that way.</p>
<p>‘Bacon sandwiches are often eaten at breakfast. I didn’t think for a minute this would have caused offence otherwise I wouldn’t have said it.’</p>
<p>Mr Hunt said he was due to take up the NHS role last Monday.</p>
<p>‘I have lost a contract because of an unassuming remark about a bacon sarnie,’ he said.</p>
<div></div>
<p>‘I have been an IT contractor for 30 years and never been subjected to this.</p>
<p>‘I’m really gutted that I’ve missed out on this job. I was over the moon when I got it.</p>
<p>‘I love working for the NHS, I know their systems.’</p>
<p>A spokesman for Reed said: ‘Due to inappropriate comments made to members of our staff during the recruitment process before Mr Hunt started his new role we have unfortunately decided that we do not feel we can represent this client further.</p>
<p>‘A senior manager from the Reed team spoke to Mr Hunt via telephone following an inappropriate comment made to a member of staff before he was due to start in the role.</p>
<p>‘During that conversation, Mr Hunt made further inappropriate comments.</p>
<p><a href="http://d383x9er2dcb4o.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/bacon.jpg"><img src="http://d383x9er2dcb4o.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/bacon-300x185.jpg" alt="bacon" width="300" height="185" /></a>‘At this point it became clear to the senior manager that Reed could no longer represent Mr Hunt.</p>
<p>‘Reed is committed to supporting its staff, clients and candidates and this is not a decision we have taken lightly.’</p>
<p>Mr Hunt said: ‘When the manager called me, I was driving and I got increasingly exasperated as he kept telling me I should admit to my wrongdoing for referring to bacon sandwiches.</p>
<p>‘In the end I told him to “sod off” and put the phone down. They have blown this out of all proportion.’</p>

<p>A Somali migrant leapt to his death from an apartment building in Italy&#8217;s central city of Florence, after authorities reportedly refused to grant him asylum in the country.</p>
<p>The 31-year-old died instantly after he plummeted 20 metres from the third floor and hit the ground below.</p>
<p>He had arrived in the tiny southern island of Lampedusa island in 2011 aboard a boat from North Africa. Thousands of AFrican migrants fled that year amid the Arab Spring uprisings.</p>
<p>The man was living in squalid conditions in a derelict apartment and was depressed, members of the Somali community in Florence told the La Repubblica daily.</p>

<p>A Tennessee man who has <a href="http://www.newschannel5.com/story/22500729/deadbeat-dad-fathers-22-children-by-14-women" target="_hplink">22 children by 14 women</a> is being sued in what might be one of Nashville&#8217;s most expensive child support cases, according to CBS affiliate WTVF.</p>
<p>In an interview outside court, Orlando Shaw said he loves all of his kids and considers himself a good father &#8212; it&#8217;s just that he can&#8217;t afford to pay child support.</p>
<p><strong>Visit <a href="http://www.newschannel5.com/story/22500729/deadbeat-dad-fathers-22-children-by-14-women" target="_hplink">WTVF for more details</a>.</strong></p>
<p>Gawker noted that the <a href="http://gawker.com/man-with-22-kids-by-14-women-lost-count-but-loves-all-1-511656231?utm_campaign=socialflow_gawker_twitter&amp;utm_source=gawker_twitter&amp;utm_medium=socialflow" target="_hplink">33-year-old appeared to have &#8220;lost count&#8221; of how many kids he has</a> during an interview. On the whole, Shaw appeared to be both unapologetic about his circumstance and unprepared to tackle its steep financial challenges.</p>
<p>&#8220;I was young and ambitious, and I love women,&#8221; Orlando Shaw told WTVF. &#8220;You can&#8217;t knock no man for loving women.&#8221;</p>
<p>His past partners might beg to differ, as they have taken Shaw to court over &#8220;tens of thousands of dollars&#8221; in unpaid support. Shaw said his criminal record makes it difficult for him to find gainful employment. If he isn&#8217;t able to pay, Shaw may end up in jail again, according to WTVF.</p>
<p>Although it is a matter serious enough for the women to take Shaw to court, various media outlets have picked up Shaw&#8217;s story from a humorous angle. Hypervocal observed that <a href="http://hypervocal.com/news/2013/father-22-kids-14-women/" target="_hplink">Shaw has fathered &#8220;two starting football teams’ worth of kids,&#8221;</a> ranging from infants to age 18. (If that age is accurate, it would mean Shaw had his first child when he was only 15 years old.)</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Guyism had a <a href="http://guyism.com/humor/man-whos-fathered-22-kids-with-14-women-gives-hilarious-interview.html" target="_hplink">cruder assessment of Shaw&#8217;s predicament</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;If we were being honest, though, his rationale for how this happened would be &#8216;<em>I love women</em>…but I hate pulling out.&#8217; Remember kids, that extra two seconds of joy can cost you your whole life.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><em><strong>Correction</strong>: A previous version of this article misidentified WTVF as an NBC affiliate. It is an affiliate station of CBS.</em></p>

<p><strong>June 13, 2013 2:28 PM</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong><strong> </strong>Four people were shot to death in an apparent murder-suicide inside a Cherokee Street business Thursday afternoon.</p>
<p>Ambulances and police cars responded to the scene at 2715 Cherokee Street at 1:29 p.m. The Cherokee Place Business Incubator is housed at that location and is home to many small businesses.</p>
<p>St. Louis Police Capt. Michael Sack said in a press conference around 3:25 p.m. that the three victims were employees of a health care business, later confirmed to be A K Home Health Care. According to police, the shooter, later identified as Ahmed Dirir, 59, of north St. Louis, appeared to have gotten into an argument with employees at the business prior to opening fire.</p>
<p>“There is surveillance video that shows a male in an apparent verbal dispute, and shortly thereafter, gunshots are shown penetrating a wall inside of the business,” St. Louis Police spokesperson Schron Jackson said in a press release. “The male suspect is believed to be the owner of the business, and the other three victims are believed to be employees.”</p>
<p>Those employees were identified Thursday night as Seaeed Abdulla, a 29-year-old male, and two females: Khadra Muse, 44, and Bernice Solomon-Redd, 54.</p>
<p>Abdulla and Muse lived in St. Louis at the time of the shooting; Solomon-Redd was living in East St. Louis.</p>
<p>The shooting closed a large swath of Cherokee Street between Ohio Avenue and Iowa Avenue Thursday afternoon.</p>
<p>Police said around 2:20 that the scene was not an active shooter situation and that homicide detectives were being brought in.</p>
<p>A witness at the nearby Waberi Store said that two women came running out of the building and into the store to call police. A man who owns another business across the street says A K Home Health Care’s owners and operators were peaceful people, Somali immigrants who have lived in the area for years.</p>

<p>Several people arrived at the murder scene soon after the shootings had ended, identified themselves to witnesses as Somalians who knew A K Home Health Care’s owners, and broke down in tears as police described what had occurred.</p>
<p>The killings also caught the attention of patrons at a nearby cafe on Cherokee. Ann Williamson was at the Melt cafe when the police stormed the shooting scene.</p>
<p>“Initially I saw several officers arrive with their guns drawn and they entered in the front of the Business Incubator and then gradually more police officers arrived,” she explained.</p>
<p>Williamson says police handcuffed three apparent witnesses from the business incubator, a man and two women, and brought them over to the cafe to question them. One of the women was said to be sobbing heavily.</p>
<p>Attorney Brian Edwards, whose law office is near the Cherokee Place Business Incubator, says he was surprised to hear of the shooting.</p>
<p>“Because this neighborhood has been doing nothing for the past ten years but getting better,” he said. “The properties have been getting better, the properties have become more populated with businesses.”</p>
<p>Edwards calls the Cherokee Street business district one of the crown jewels in St. Louis.</p>
<p>“It is quite disappointing to hear that this has happened but I do not think in any way it is a reflection of this particular neighborhood,” he said.</p>
<p>Around 3:15, St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay’s Chief of Staff Jeff Rainford posted on Twitter that the shooting was a murder-suicide.</p>
<p>News of the shooting reached Mayor Slay in Clayton where he was attending a seminar on city-county cooperation with start up companies. The Mayor quickly got up and was in the hallway working his phone to find out more.</p>
<p>“We’re in close contact with police. Every indication is that the victims knew each other,” he told reporters at the event. “It looks like this was an isolated incident. It was not a random situation and I think from that standpoint…if you look at it from that standpoint, I think you have to keep it in isolation.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Comments on Cyprus’ division, Turkey’s foreign policy and Eastern Mediterranean geopolitics <br />
By Prof. Muhammad Shamsaddin Megalommatis</strong></p>
<p>Answering to a reader who asked me whether Cyprus is a weak point of Turkey’s foreign policy, as recently discussed in documentary on Al Jazeera, I felt the need to expand.I really don’t know whether Cyprus is a weak point for today’s Turkey; if it is, this is due to the idiotic and self-contradictory Turkish foreign policy that has been pursued during the last 15 years. Having the experience to have worked for two years in the Eastern Mediterranean University which is located in Famagusta, Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, to have met personally the late President Rauf Denktash and the Turkish Prime Ministers Necmettin Erbakan and Tansu Ciller, I can give a perspective in this regard.</p>
<p>I must however to state as a preamble that it is my practice not to accuse others for harming me, when I should stand accused for having not duly protected myself. This statement is quite emblematic when it comes to the Cyprus ordeal.Cyprus is a minor problem that finally turned out to be a major Eastern Mediterranean issue. Cyprus is a very complex affair, due to English colonization since 1878. There are Turkish Cypriots and Greek Cypriots; those who became Muslims did not need to speak Greek, and they used Turkish and Arabic. But the very origin of the Cypriots is not Greek but Phoenician.</p>
<p> The first Cypriot name known in History is that of Queen Hatiba who was encountered by the Egyptian priest Wenamun. In his return trip from Byblus (Jebel in Lebanon) to Egypt (ca. 1075 BCE), Wenamun sought safety there, as he was pursued by the Tsekker – a defeated Sea Peoples’ component who settled in some parts of the coast of Lebanon. Cyprus was first known as Alasiya to Hittites, Canaanites, and Egyptians. Later, with the diffusion of the Greek language particularly after Alexander the Great, Cyprus underwent a linguistic assimilation.</p>
<p>When in 1974, July 15th, Msgr. Macarios, the elected president, was overthrown by a nationalist puppet of the Athens military junta, the reason was produced for Turkey to intervene (as one of the three warrantors – along with Greece and England), because the legitimate order was breached. Greeks try always to forget that they gave to the Turks the reason to intervene; but this is vain.</p>
<p>On that very day, Msgr. Macarios managed to successfully escape from his assaulted presidential palace at the very last moment and to finally reach the sizeable English military base on the island; thence he flew to Malta on an English helicopter. The Turkish army landed on July 20th and, as the Greek Junta proved to be unable to attack Turkey in support of Cyprus, the Greek military regime fell and the army called the politicians to assume responsibility in Athens. Msgr. Macarios returned to Cyprus few months later.</p>
<p>Quite interestingly, the Turkish army advanced up to a point that can easily be identified as the result of earlier orders received in Ankara from NATO, England and the US. Had there not been a tacit agreement, the Turkish army could have easily invaded the whole island, as there were only few Greek officers and soldiers, and Greece was provenly not able to undertake a war against Turkey.</p>
<p>Look now at the point up to which the Turkish army advanced: they occupied the northern part of the island and the northern part of Nicosia, the capital, which is located almost mid-way between the northern and the southern coasts. The Turks stopped when they made sure that the building and the garden of the English embassy is the only to have one exit to the Turkish Cypriot side and another exit to the Greek Cypriot side!!!! This is not a proper military advance; it is a joke, when we know very well the rapport de force between the Turkish army and the Cypriots in 1974. The Turkish army could certainly have advanced some blocks more or easily occupied the entire city of Nicosia.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>At any possible moment after August 1974, any English diplomat could speak with a Turkish Cypriot in the Turkish Cypriot side and with a Greek Cypriot in the Greek Cypriot side, using two telephone sets on his desk!!!!Of course, the Greek diplomats want always to forget that Greece is the reason of the problem and that the Turkish Cypriot minority (ca. 18-19%) was repeatedly oppressed in the period 1961-1974, when Cyprus was an independent state with a Greek Cypriot president and a Turkish Cypriot vice-president. Mosques were burnt, but the different Greek administrations found this was not a problem. The Greek plan was to ultimately merge with Cyprus; this plan was called ‘Enosis’ (union).</p>
<p>However, Cypriots are psychologically perturbed and have terrible complexes of inferiority; the Greek Cypriots hate the Greeks, and the Turkish Cypriots hate the Turks. Both communities are better off with the English, as their relationship with England enables them to look down at the Turks and the Greeks, and thus feel less inferior toward either Turkey or Greece!</p>
<p>After 1974, and during many different stages of negotiations, the Greeks and the Greek Cypriots wanted to go back to the statu quo ante, which was impossible for Turkey to accept, as there was already a full proof that the statu quo ante could not function properly.</p>
<p>So, for 39 years, the Turks and the Turkish Cypriots have demanded a bi-zonal confederation in one state where the two zones would be delineated with small territorial concessions from Turkey &#8211; up to a 67% &#8211; 33% (now the two zones are slightly different: Greek Cypriot 62% – Turkish Cypriot 38%). The Greeks and the Greek Cypriots have always rejected this, and the situation has been eternalized.  </p>
<p>Turkey’s top generals complied with NATO / US / UK orders and opposed the plan (launched by several Turkish politicians and statesmen from the Right and the Left) that provided for an international recognition of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, which has been recognized until now by only Turkey.</p>
<p>When I participated in the Turkish political life (1994 – 1996), I fervently pushed for the international recognition of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC); the moment was very favorable (Central Asiatic countries, Azerbaijan, Pakistan and Bangladesh would be the first to recognize TRNC). This only exacerbated the Western ambassadors and angered key persons in the West. It was one of the reasons for which the said embassies plotted against my presence in Turkey.</p>
<p>After I left Turkey, many negative developments took place; the worst was the lack of an effective Turkish policy, when the Greeks and the Greek Cypriots devised the trickery of Cyprus’ adhesion to the European Union, Turkey did not respond in any manner. Yet, that was the very correct moment to plan and execute the final solution of the problem. Turkey had to first trigger some clashes alongside the demarcation line on the island and subsequently launch a war that in two days, and without clashes between Greece and Turkey, would reduce the Greek Cypriot territory (from 62%) to ca. 35% of the island’s area or even less.</p>
<p>In politics, there is never a vacuum. When you leave a space free, the space is soon afterwards occupied by somebody else. Due to the lack of proper Turkish response, the Greek Cypriots pursued their anti-Turkish policy of hatred and rancor to an advanced level. Under Mubarak, they tried to entrap Egypt in a conflict with Turkey about the exploitation of the Mediterranean Sea continental shelf, south of Cyprus. Mubarak quite diligently avoided the trap. More recently, as the Greek economy waned, the Greek Cypriots turned to Israel, and the Zionist state found in them an excellent partner to create troubles to Turkey.</p>
<p>That is the down-to-earth reality. Due to the disastrous foreign policy of the fake Muslim Erdogan, Turkey is now in a far worse shape than that in 2002, in spite of all the lies that the criminal Freemasonic mass media have forged.</p>

<p>Mogadishu, 12 June 2013  -  H.E. Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, President of the Federal Republic of Somalia, today bid farewell to the UK Ambassador, H.E. Matt Baugh, as he comes to the end of his three year mission in Somalia.</p>
<p>Speaking at a joint press conference, the President said:</p>
<p>“Our friend Matt Baugh, UK Ambassador to Somalia, is going back to London after three years of making an impossible mission possible. His exemplary service and diplomatic leadership has focused the UK’s support to Somalia and has helped Somalia regain its place in the community of nations.</p>
<p>“Somalia is very sorry to see Matt Baugh leave, but he leaves a legacy of UK leadership that we will appreciate for many years to come. His determination and passion convinced others that Somalia is a worthy cause to be supported.</p>
<p>“Matt Baugh came to Somalia as a ‘Senior Representative’ and since then became the first UK Ambassador to Somalia since 1991 and opened the UK Embassy here in Mogadishu.</p>
<p>“Mr Baugh’s commitment ensured the success of the two London Conferences in 2012 and in 2013, convened and hosted by the Prime Minister, the Rt Hon David Cameron MP.”</p>
<p>The President went on to say, “I have no doubt that when you came to Somalia there was no hope, no roadmap, no peace, no development and there appeared to be no way through. However, your commitment and desire to make change, together with International Community, epitomised the UK’s leading role in making the changes that brought hope, a roadmap, peace, development and a way out of the quaqmire.</p>
<p>“The UK realises that the issues faced by Somalia, such as extremism, terrorism, piracy, chaos, poverty, lack of education, health, famine and refugees are all global issues which require global solution. And this is why they have taken such a strong lead in Somalia.”</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; ENDS &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Large numbers of children are being diagnosed with measles and diarrhoea in Bo’ame location of Sool region, according to local doctors. Dr Mohamed Yasin Warsame, who heads a small health facility in Boame, said he had treated 18 children from the villages of Karingorfod, Fardhidin and Bo’ame for diarrhea. He said there was also evidence of an outbreak of measles, in an area where most children have not been vaccinated against key childhood diseases. Reports suggest that 20 children have been already diagnosed with measles in the area, and that many more may be infected. Most of the children are under five years old. The area has no formal health facilities.</p>

<p><a title="More from guardian.co.uk on Nelson Mandela" href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/nelsonmandela">Nelson Mandela</a> is &#8220;responding better&#8221; to treatment, leaving officials &#8220;very happy&#8221; with the progress in his condition, the South African president, <a title="More from guardian.co.uk on Jacob Zuma" href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/zuma">Jacob Zuma</a>, has said.</p>
<p>The 94-year-old former president is spending a fifth day in hospital in Pretoria after suffering a recurrence of a lung infection. While the mood has been particularly sombre during this latest stay in hospital, Zuma hinted on Wednesday that there were grounds for optimism.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m happy to report that Madiba is responding better to treatment from this morning,&#8221; <a title="" href="http://www.thepresidency.gov.za/pebble.asp?relid=15546">he told parliament in Cape Town</a>. &#8220;We are very happy with the progress that he is now making, following a difficult last few days.</p>
<p>&#8220;We appreciate the messages of support from all over the world. It is an honour for us as South Africans to share Madiba with the international community.&#8221;</p>
<p>A big media contingent is gathered outside the Mediclinic heart hospital in Pretoria. Zuma added: &#8220;We fully understand and appreciate the global interest in this world icon. We are so proud to call him our own.</p>
<p>&#8220;We urge South Africans and the international community to continue to keep President Mandela and the medical team in their thoughts and prayers.&#8221;</p>
<p>Wednesday marks the 49th anniversary of the struggle hero Mandela being <a title="" href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/june/12/newsid_3006000/3006437.stm">sentenced to life imprisonment by the apartheid regime</a>, Zuma noted.</p>
<p>The progress report will be cautiously welcomed by millions of South Africans. Annika Larsen, a reporter on eNews Channel <a title="More from guardian.co.uk on Africa" href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/africa">Africa</a>, said: &#8220;I think I&#8217;ve just heard <a title="More from guardian.co.uk on South Africa" href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/southafrica">South Africa</a> breathe a huge sigh of relief … That&#8217;s probably the best news we&#8217;ve heard on Nelson Mandela in the last five days.&#8221;</p>
<p>Local media reported that Mandela&#8217;s wife, Graça Machel, and grandchildren Ndaba, Zenani and Mandla were <a title="" href="http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/Wife-grandkids-visit-Mandela-in-hospital-20130612">seen visiting hospital on Wednesday</a>. Zenani Mandela-Dlamini, South Africa&#8217;s ambassador to Argentina, has also returned home to visit her father.</p>
<p><a title="" href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/jun/11/nelson-mandela-hospital-security">Security at the hospital</a> remains tight. South Africa&#8217;s Times newspaper said its team went to the hospital coffee shop and observed plainclothes policemen <a title="" href="http://www.timeslive.co.za/thetimes/2013/06/12/inside-madiba-s-hospital">questioning several visitors about their business there</a>.</p>
<p>The paper quoted a doctor as saying that even the movement of medical staff was restricted: &#8220;It&#8217;s crazy. From yesterday no one can come in or out without being stopped and searched. There are certain floors to which access, even for medical staff, has been limited.&#8221;</p>
<p>Stairwells are under guard and lifts are being monitored, the paper added.</p>
<p>Mandela spent 27 years in prison, the bulk of them on Robben Island, before his release in 1990. He was elected South Africa&#8217;s first black president four years later and served a single term. <a title="" href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2010/jul/11/world-cup-final-nelson-mandela">His last major public appearance was at the football World Cup final in 2010</a>.</p>
<p><a title="" href="http://www.kathradafoundation.org/">Ahmed Kathrada</a>, a fellow former Robben Island inmate, was quoted by the New Age newspaper as saying: &#8220;I think we should allow him to rest with his family close by. I do wish and pray that he will recover so that we can benefit from his presence.&#8221;</p>
