U.S. soldier accused in Iraq killings reaches deal: lawyer Posted: 19 Apr 2013 11:51 AM PDT By Eric M.

The United Nations has been working off an estimate of $1.5 billion for its Syria funding needs, but that figure is already looking much too low, with refugee numbers far ahead of forecasts and no end in sight to the fighting. U.N. High Commissioner of Refugees Antonio Guterres has said almost half of Syria's 20. ... |
