The killings of the US ambassador to Libya and three of his staff were likely to have been the result of a serious and continuing security breach, The Independent can reveal. American officials believe the attack was planned, but Chris Stevens had been back in the country only a short while and the details of his visit to Benghazi, where he and his staff died, were meant to be confidential. The US administration is now facing a crisis in Libya. Sensitive documents have gone missing from the consulate in Benghazi and the supposedly secret location of the "safe house" in the city, where the staff had retreated, came under sustained mortar attack. Other such refuges across the ...

Amid U.S.-Israel tension over Iran's nuclear program, West persuades Russia and China to adopt a resolution demanding that Iran halt any action that could promote development of nuclear bomb. he United States and its Western allies have persuaded Russia and China to support a resolution critical of Iran’s nuclear defiance, in the hope of showing Israel that diplomacy is an alternative to military force in pressuring Tehran, diplomats said Wednesday. The resolution, which demands that Iran stop activities that could be used to make nuclear arms, cannot be enforced by the 35-nation board of the International Atomic Energy Agency, even if approved by vote or consensus as expected ...

As the media continue to scrutinize Mitt Romney’s alleged gaffes, might we spend a moment looking at the world as it actually exists, right now, independent of the presidential campaign? Let’s take a tour. Russia. When Obama became president he proclaimed a policy of “reset” in U.S.-Russia relations, and tried strenuously to bring Russia within the Atlantic orbit of democracy and the rule of law. To that end he scrapped the proposed land-based missile interceptors in Poland and the Czech Republic, politely ignored Russia’s continuing occupation of Georgian territory, negotiated a nuclear arms reduction treaty that slashes the U.S. stockpile (while failing to ...

U.S. Marines are on the ground in Yemen to deal with the aftermath of an attack on the U.S. Embassy in the capital city of Sanaa, as the Obama administration warns of sustained protests outside diplomatic posts across the Middle East and North Africa.

The move comes as Reuters reports that protesters have jumped over U.S. Embassy walls in both Sudan and Tunisia. Reuters reports that protesters also set fire to trees and broke windows inside the U.S. Embassy compound in Tunis. That is just a snapshot of the violent unrest playing out Friday, in the widest protests yet across the ...

Contrary to J Street and Media Claims, Former IDF Chief Halutz Is Hawkish on Iran

Lt. Gen. Halutz is actually making the argument, in an admittedly very circumspect manner, that it is the international community - that is, everyone besides Israel - which is to blame for the current cataclysm. Halutz even says that Israel may have to “go it alone.” Former Israel Defense Force Chief of Staff Dan Halutz is being shepherded around the United States to talk about the international crisis with Iran. The anti-Netanyahu group J Street is promoting Halutz as critical of Israeli policy and supportive of their position of opposing military action. But at the first two talks given by Halutz, one of which was attended by a Jewish Press reporter and the other of which can ...
Mrs. Clinton, Mr. Obama, it's time to wake up and smell the global jihad

When the men who killed our ambassador to Libya were in the final stages of their preparation, Hillary Clinton was in the Cook Islands, being regaled by locals in traditional dress. Her seemingly endless world tour has prioritized symbolism and pageantry over substance. So too has the administration of her boss, Barack Obama, and the costs are now becoming clear. This explains why Obama’s chief diplomat said of the Libya attack: “I asked myself—how could this happen? How could this happen in a country we helped liberate, in a city we helped save from destruction?” Madam secretary, it is time for you and your boss to wake up and smell the global jihad. There are people ...

Embassies in North Africa, Afghanistan and Pakistan are believed to be among those affected. The spokesman said that the missions would only close on ...

Egypt's General Intelligence Service warned that a jihadi group is planning to launch terrorist attacks against the US and Israeli embassies in Cairo, according to a report Tuesday by Egypt Independent, citing a secret letter obtained by Al-Masry Al-Youm. According to the report, the attack is being planned by Global Jihad, the group suspected of killing 16 Egyptian border guards in Sinai on August 5.

BAGHDAD | Thu Sep 13, 2012 7:09am EDT (Reuters) - An Iraqi militia that carried out some of the most prominent attacks on foreigners during the Iraq war on Thursday threatened U.S. interests in the country over a film that has triggered protests in Libya, Egypt and Yemen. "The offence caused to the messenger (Prophet Mohammad) will put all American interests in danger and we will not forgive them for that," said Qais al-Khazali, leader of the Asaib al-Haq militia.

TEHRAN — Iran has condemned a film insulting Islam that sparked a deadly protest in Libya killing the US ambassador, while Iranian media reported an anti-US protest over the movie would take place in Tehran on Thursday. A foreign ministry statement slammed the film, an amateur production made in the United States, as “repulsive” and said the US government’s “silence” encouraged such offences to Islam. The Iranian statement made no mention of the attacks on US diplomatic compounds in Egypt and Libya by ultra-conservative Muslims protesting the film. In the Libya attack, US Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other US officials were killed when a mob stormed ...

Barack Obama has stepped into the political row over Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s ill-judged response to the Benghazi consulate attack. Romney faced heavy criticism from across the political spectrum for statements issued on Tuesday evening and repeated at a press conference on Wednesday morning in which he accused the Obama administration of being too ready to apologise for American values. Former diplomats, foreign policy analysts and many Republicans distanced themselves from Romney’s remarks, accusing him of being premature in trying to make political capital out of a fatal attack on US diplomats. To add to his problems, the statements were quickly shown ...

President Obama says the U.S. would no longer consider the Egyptian government an ally, “but we don’t consider them an enemy.” In an interview with the Spanish-language network Telemundo, less than 24 hours after violent mobs stormed American diplomatic outposts in Cairo and Benghazi, Libya, Obama said the new Muslim Brotherhood leadership in Egypt was still “trying to find its way.” “They were democratically elected. I think we are going to have to see how they respond to this incident, to see how they respond to maintaining the peace treaty with Israel,” he said. Egyptian security forces were slow to respond to attacks on the U.S. embassy Tuesday ...

Protesters attempted to storm the U.S. Embassy in Yemen’s capital Sana’a and one was reportedly shot dead, while demonstrators rallied in Egypt and Iran against a film seen as insulting to Islam. The spread of violence follows the killing of the American ambassador to Libya, Chris Stevens, and three colleagues during an attack on consular buildings there two days ago. U.S. lawmakers said yesterday that groups tied to al-Qaeda may have been involved. Demonstrators in Sana’a breached the compound’s security perimeter and set two cars ablaze, as security personnel fired into the air to disperse the crowd, said Yousef Al-Ahjan, who joined the rally.

The media’s full-throttled attack on Mitt Romney’s condemnation of Barack Obama’s weak handling of the Libyan crisis isn’t surprising given they invested so much time praising the President’s Libyan policy in 2011., During the Arab Spring of 2011, Time’s Mark Halperin called the administration’s policy toward Libya “deft” and CBS’s Norah O’Donnell declared Obama’s “victories” in the Middle East would “burnish his credentials as a world leader.” NBC’s David Gregory hailed that since Obama “has been tested” in the foreign policy “arena” he would use the experience as “a club against ...
