Romney Claims He's 'Kinda' a Politician but Grounded in Biz Posted: BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – As he explained his presidential goals, Mitt Romney said his promises carried more weight than a typical politician's because he was grounded in business, not politics. But he was quick to admit that his time as governor of Massachusetts and his pursuit of the... |

Study: Military Suicides Growing at Alarming Rate Posted: Military service members have had a lot to deal with both physically and mentally since the start of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. Multiple deployments, missing out on family milestones and brutal training schedules are just some of the things weighing on soldiers' minds. |
Matt Taibbi and Occupy Wall Street Complete Each Other Posted: Matt Taibbi and Occupy Wall Street were pretty much made for each other. The Rolling Stone polemicist's writing gives Occupy talking points for its critique of Wall Street, big business, and government, and Occupy's high-profile actions last year validated the hell out of the causes Taibbi's been championing for years. This symbiotic relationship has only deepened as the activists find a mouthpiece in Taibbi, and the writer gathers more people eager to put his ideas into practice. ... |
Attack Iran or more sanctions? A third option: Israel and Iran forsake nukes Posted: For half a century now, Israel's regional nuclear monopoly has been its "Samson option," the one weapon it can threaten to use if all else fails and Israel faces a real existential threat. As a scholar concentrating on the Middle East conflict, and also as a native of Israel, I am not comforted by the nuclear security blanket under which I was born. |
Bahrain protesters boost pressure with huge rally Posted: Tens of thousands of anti-government protesters flooded a major highway in Bahrain on Friday in one of the largest opposition rallies in months against the Gulf nation's rulers.

Syria intervention calls rise, few good options Posted: LONDON (Reuters) - As Syria's death toll mounts, calls are growing for some form of outside intervention. But with few easy options, foreign powers who find themselves unable to halt the suffering could simply end up prolonging it. Earlier this week, Senator and former presidential candidate John McCain called for US-led airstrikes to undermine the rule of President Bashar al-Assad. Government forces have been ruthlessly suppressing largely peaceful demonstrations since last year, in the last month pounding the city of Homs in some of the worst violence yet prompted by the "Arab Spring". ... |

U.S. troops gone, al Qaeda makes Iraq peace elusive Posted: BAGHDAD (Reuters) - If Iraqis were hoping that the withdrawal of U.S. forces last year would finally mean the end of war, al Qaeda and its Sunni militant allies are determined to prove otherwise. Daily bombings and shootings remain an endemic feature of life. In the past three months, al Qaeda-linked fighters have been blamed for attacks that have killed at least 250 people. In a particularly poignant reminder of militants' potency this week, gunmen in unauthorized uniforms of special commandos drove from checkpoint to checkpoint in the western town of Haditha before dawn, gunning down police. ... |

Brent holds above $125 on Greece debt-swap deal Posted: SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Brent crude held above $125 on Friday, heading for its sixth weekly gain in seven, following news of a successful Greek debt swap deal that brings the country a step closer to securing a bailout needed to avoid a messy default. Greece said 85.8 percent of private creditors had accepted its bond swap offer, averting the immediate risk of an uncontrolled default while also allaying concerns about oil demand. Brent crude, which is set to rise more than 1 percent this week, fell 35 cents to $125.09 a barrel by 0755 GMT. U.S. crude was up 33 cents at $106.91. ... |

Will Turkey Help Syrian Rebels Besides Taking Refugees? Posted: "It's like moving people from death to life," says Raed Saleh, 27, describing the process of helping his fellow Syrians flee into Turkey. From his base at a refugee tent camp near Bosheen, a small Turkish village less than a mile away from the border, Saleh manages a network of lookouts and smugglers who alert him whenever a new group is en route. He doesn't speak Turkish himself, Saleh says, so he relies on another friend to phone the Turkish border guards before any refugees attempt to cross. |
