Obama campaign questions Romney on bin Laden death Posted: FORT STEWART, Georgia (Reuters) - President Barack Obama's campaign sought to make the death of Osama bin Laden a central part of the U.S. presidential election on Friday with a video that questioned whether Republican rival Mitt Romney would have made the same call to approve the mission that killed the al Qaeda leader. Obama, a Democrat, was praised by leaders from both parties for approving the risky May 2011 mission that killed bin Laden, but he has tread carefully with the issue in campaign events. His re-election campaign embraced the issue fully on Friday. ... |

U.S. government experts also believe that the likelihood of an attack using chemical, biological, atomic or radiological weapons over the next year was not high, said Robert Cardillo, deputy director of U.S. National Intelligence.

Romney Campaign Manager Attacks Obama's Record Posted: Mitt Romney's campaign manager Matt Rhoades issued a memo detailing what his camp asserts are the multitude of failings of President Barack Obama.

Oil report seen supporting Iran sanctions Posted: WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Global oil inventories grew over the last two months despite the loss of further supplies from Iran, according to a U.S. report that gave leeway for the Obama administration to press ahead with sanctions on the OPEC nation.

Wrangling hampers Libyan drive to try Gaddafi son Posted: TRIPOLI (Reuters) - Putting the son of fallen leader Muammar Gaddafi on trial on their own soil is a matter of national pride for Libya's leaders, but the lack of a properly functioning state is making it hard for them to convince the outside world they are up to the task. Libya is standing firm on trying Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, once the heir apparent to his father's one-man rule. But so is the International Criminal Court (ICC) at The Hague, which indicted him in June for crimes against humanity stemming from the crackdown on last year's revolt. ... |

One Year After Bin Laden's Death: A New World Posted: If Osama bin Laden were still alive today, one year after he was killed in a U.S. raid, he would hardly recognize the world he knew. Nor would he see the supposed "clash of civilizations" that he tried so hard to foment over two decades of violent jihad. Instead bin Laden would see Islamist radicals on the election stump in emerging governments in Egypt and Tunisia, pledging cooperation with senior U.S. officials, and even meeting with a few neocons in Washington. He would see a U.S. ... |

U.S. oil report seen supporting Iran sanctions Posted: WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Obama administration is unlikely to pull back from levying sanctions against Iran oil transactions based on a government report due on Friday, which is expected to show crude markets are sufficiently well-supplied to move forward with the penalties. The report, which the U.S. Energy Information Administration is required to produce every two months under the sanctions law aimed at curbing Tehran's nuclear ambitions, could walk a fine line in assessing the state of markets, according to analysts. ... |

Detroit Branch NAACP Press Statement: Democracy Will Prevail! Posted: DETROIT, April 26, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Today's actions taken by the Michigan Board of Canvassers in the process of certification for 226,000 signatures to repeal Public Act 4 is a disgrace to the democracy of our nation.
