Russia's Putin escaped critique for Ukraine actions at G20-German conservative Posted: 03 Dec 2018 02:27 AM PST BERLIN (Reuters) - The G20 summit in Argentina failed to hold Russian President Vladimir Putin accountable for his actions with regard to Ukraine, despite significant efforts by German Chancellor Angela Merkel in bilateral meetings, a key Merkel ally said. "President Putin escaped nearly unscathed with his renewed aggression against Ukraine," Juergen Hardt, foreign policy spokesman for Merkel's conservatives in parliament, said in a statement on Monday. ... |

Posted: 03 Dec 2018 02:10 AM PST A friend of murdered Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi is suing an Israeli software company he believes helped the kingdom intercept messages sent to him from the dissident criticising Mohammed bin Salman. Omar Abdulaziz, a Saudi national who now lives in exile in Canada, filed a lawsuit on Sunday against NSO Group alleging its spyware helped the Saudi government gain access to his smartphone. The spyware allows its customers to secretly listen to calls and read messages on a targeted phone. The lawsuit, filed in Tel Aviv, accuses NSO Group of breaking international laws by selling its software to oppressive regimes. "The hacking of my phone played a major role in what happened to Jamal, I am really sorry to say," Mr Abdulaziz said. "The guilt is killing me." Quebec-based Saudi activist Omar Abdulaziz exchanged messages with Khashoggi in the months before his death Credit: YouTube In messages sent to Mr Abdelaziz, Khashoggi called Crown Prince Mohammed, the de-facto ruler of the kingdom, a "beast" and likened him to a "Pac-Man" who devours everything in his path. "The more victims he eats, the more he wants," said Khashoggi in one message sent in May, just after a group of Saudi women's rights activists were arrested. "I will not be surprised if the oppression will reach even those who are cheering him on." Saudi officials would have been able to see the more than 400 message exchanged between the pair on encrypted apps such as WhatsApp. Khashoggi and Mr Abdulaziz, 27, who sought asylum in Montreal, began to talk about plans to form an "electronic army" of young Saudis living in the country to try to undermine the government's online propaganda, according to messages seen by CNN. Saudi Arabia's King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud meets with British Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt, in Riyadh Credit: Reuters In early August, Mr Abdulaziz discovered the Saudi government was aware of their project. "How did they know?" asked Khashoggi in a message. "There must have been a gap," says Mr Abdulaziz. Three minutes later Khashoggi writes back: "God help us." Khashoggi was killed two months later on Oct 2 in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. The CIA has concluded that the murder of the Washington Post columnist was ordered by the crown prince himself. Mr Abdulaziz revealed last month that researchers at the University of Toronto's Citizen Lab reported his phone had been hacked by military-grade spyware. According to them, the software was the invention of NSO Group, and deployed at the behest of the Saudi Arabian government. NSO Group has previously faced lawsuits from citizens from Mexico and Qatar, who say the technology was used to hack their smartphones. The human rights group Amnesty International has also recently accused the NSO Group of helping Saudi Arabia spy on a member of the organisation's staff. In a statement, the group says its technology helps governments fight crime, and is fully vetted and licensed by the Israeli government. "Our products have a long track record of assisting governments in preventing suicide bombers, stopping drug lords and sex traffickers, and helping safely return victims of kidnapping," the statement said. "If there is suspicion of misuse, we investigate it and take the appropriate actions, including suspending or terminating a contract." |

Mexico’s Leader Sells Off ‘Too Lavish’ Presidential Boeing 787 Posted: 03 Dec 2018 08:47 AM PST The 787-8 aircraft is headed Monday to a facility in California where Boeing can help maintain the presidential jet until a buyer is found, Finance Minister Carlos Urzua and Banobras development bank director Jorge Mendoza said in a message to reporters in Mexico City. Lopez Obrador has criticized the plane, which cost more than $200 million, as ostentatious -- more luxurious than Air Force One, which flies U.S. presidents around the world, and too lavish for the leader of Mexico. |
Trump says US-China ties make 'BIG leap forward' Posted: 03 Dec 2018 05:54 AM PST US President Donald Trump boasted Monday that US relations with China have taken a "BIG leap forward" following his meeting in Argentina with President Xi Jinping. Trump alluded -- possibly inadvertently -- to the "Great Leap Forward," Mao Zedong's disastrous campaign to rapidly industrialize China's agrarian economy, which historians believe led to the deaths of tens of millions of people in the Great Chinese Famine. Trump, who joined Xi in calling a truce on an intensifying trade war between their two powerhouse countries, earlier touted a roll-back in Chinese tariffs on US-made cars. |

A video of the incident shared on Twitter by the New York City Police Department on Saturday collected more than 20,000 retweets, made headlines and managed to reach the newly engaged pair who had returned to the United Kingdom. "The (now) happy couple is back in their home country, but thanks to your retweets they heard we were looking for them!" the NYPD wrote on Twitter on Sunday. |

Iran missile tests may breach UN resolution, France and UK warn Posted: 03 Dec 2018 11:01 AM PST France and the UK have echoed warnings by Donald Trump's administration that Iran may be in breach of United Nations obligations by testing medium-range ballistic missiles capable of carrying multiple warheads. The remarks from Paris and London will be seen by the US government as the first sign that its key European partners may yet be persuaded to view Iran's broader behaviour as so dangerous that their support for the 2015 Iran nuclear deal can no longer be justified. The US secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, criticised Iran's missile programme at the weekend and will be at a Nato foreign ministers' meeting in Brussels over the next two days to underline his message about the threat to Middle East stability posed by Iran. |
Comey Ends His Subpoena Fight, to Speak Behind Closed Doors Posted: 02 Dec 2018 11:52 AM PST Comey had sued to block the summons last week, contending that the sealed testimony would be leaked and distorted by Republicans for political purposes. Early on Sunday, two days after Comey's attorney conceded in court that no federal trial judge had ever batted down a House subpoena, the former Federal Bureau of Investigations chief -- who was fired by President Donald Trump in 2017 -- withdrew his request. |
Mattis says Russia tried to 'muck around' US vote, again Posted: 02 Dec 2018 01:25 AM PST US Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said Saturday that Russia tried to meddle in the US midterm elections last month -- just as it did in the 2016 vote that brought President Donald Trump to power. The already strained ties between Washington and Moscow have "no doubt" worsened over Russia's continued attempts to interfere in the US voting process, Mattis said at the Reagan National Defense Forum in California. Russian President Vladimir Putin "tried again to muck around in our elections this last month, and we are seeing a continued effort along those lines," the Pentagon chief said. |

Aftershocks rattle cleanup efforts after powerful Alaskan earthquake Posted: 01 Dec 2018 05:47 PM PST Aftershocks from Friday's powerful Alaskan earthquake continued to pound the area around Anchorage on Saturday, as workers strove to patch up buckled roads and residents began cleaning up damage around their homes and businesses. The 7.0 magnitude quake struck Friday morning about 8 miles (13 km) north of Anchorage, the state's largest city with 300,000 residents, disrupting rush-hour traffic and jamming telephone service. "We are on the road to returning to normal," Anchorage Mayor Ethan Berkowitz said at a news conference on Saturday. |
Astronauts blast off for space station on Russian rocket after October crash Posted: 03 Dec 2018 03:05 AM PST A Russian, an American and a Canadian astronaut have taken off for the international space station in the first manned launch of a Soyuz rocket since a harrowing crash in October. Monday's launch of the MS-11 ship was a closely watched test for Russia's space industry, which has suffered several high-profile failures in recent years but remains the only reliable way to deliver crew to the orbiting station. A source of national pride for both the Soviet Union and Russia under Vladimir Putin, missions into the cosmos are virtually the only area of cooperation left between Russia and the United States after the Ukraine crisis. Space station veteran and mission commander Oleg Kononenko, 54, Quebec family doctor David Saint-Jacques, 48, and Anne McClain, 39, a US army helicopter pilot who earned masters degrees from the University of Bath and Bristol in the UK, lifted off in a cloud of flame and smoke from Kazakhstan's Baikonur cosmodrome on Monday afternoon. From bottom, Oleg Kononenko, Anne McClain and David Saint-Jacques board their Soyuz MS-11 spacecraft in Kazakhstan on Monday Credit: Shamil Zhumatov/Reuters In the course of an eight-minute flight through the atmosphere, the craft first jettisoned its boosters and then its second stage rocket to successfully deliver the spacecraft into orbit. The trio were scheduled to dock with the space station six hours later to relieve the current crew, which will return home on December 20. On Tuesday, Elon Musk's SpaceX plans to launch from Cape Canaveral a long-delayed reusable Falcon 9 rocket with 5,600 pounds of research equipment and supplies including holiday food for the space station. The MS-11 mission was moved up after the same kind of Soyuz spacecraft and FG rocket booster crashed at Baikonur in October, risking the lives of Russian commander Alexei Ovchinin and Nasa astronaut Nick Hague. One of the four boosters caught on the second stage as they detached, sending the rocket careening toward the ground a little more than two minutes after takeoff. The capsule automatically aborted the mission and parachuted the two men to safety about 250 miles away on the plains of Kazakhstan. Soyuz MS-10 takes off from Baikonur before its crash in October Credit: Dmitri Lovetsky/AP Russia blamed the crash on a sensor in the booster separation system that was damaged during installation in what the space agency head could have been an act of sabotage. Having taken apart two rockets during an investigation, its specialists have now fixed the problem, a special commission said. Arianespace launched a European weather satellite into orbit on an unmanned Soyuz rocket last month. Monday's mission follows a scare at the space station in August when a drop in pressure was traced to a small hole in a panel in a Soyuz MS-09 module, which had docked with the station in June. Russia's space czar at one point suggested the hole could have been drilled by the German or American crew member on the station. MS-11 crew member Anne McClain said she had absolute confidence in the Soyuz despite the crash, telling CBS News she "would have gotten on a rocket the day after that happened". But crashes of unmanned Russian spacecraft in 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 have called into doubt the viability of the country's space industry, where low wages have reportedly hurt operations. In the most egregious incident, an unmanned Soyuz rocket carrying 19 international satellites crashed in November 2017 after it was programmed with the coordinates for the wrong launch site. A Russian Orthodox priests blesses the MS-11 spaceship with holy water on Sunday Credit: Kirill Kudryavtsev/AFP Monday's mission started from the same launchpad that Yuri Gagarin did when he became the first man in space in 1961. Russian Orthodox priests flicked holy water on the rocket, launch team and assembled journalists during a blessing the day before. On Friday, Russia launched three communications satellites into space and an unidentified fourth object that some think could be a new spy satellite. |
Merkel protege suggests reducing gas flow through Nord Stream 2 pipeline Posted: 02 Dec 2018 03:16 PM PST Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer, a top candidate to replace Chancellor Angela Merkel as leader of the Christian Democrats, told public broadcaster ARD it would be "too radical" to withdraw political support for the project, but Berlin could reduce the amount of gas to flow through the pipeline. Russia is resisting international calls to release three Ukrainian ships seized last weekend in the Kerch Strait near the Crimea region that Moscow illegally annexed from Ukraine in 2014. Moscow has accused the 24 sailors of illegally crossing the Russian border, which Ukraine denies. |

Iran says it will continue missile tests after U.S. allegation Posted: 02 Dec 2018 01:24 PM PST Iran said on Sunday it would continue missile tests to build up its defences and denied this was in breach of U.N. resolutions following U.S. allegations that Tehran had tested a new missile capable of carrying multiple warheads. U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Saturday condemned what he called Iran's testing of a medium-range ballistic missile in violation of the 2015 international agreement on the Iranian nuclear programme, from which Washington has withdrawn. "Missile tests ... are carried out for defence and the country's deterrence, and we will continue this," Brigadier- General Abolfazl Shekarchi, spokesman for Iran's armed forces, was quoted as saying by the semi-official Tasnim news agency. |

The event was entitled "The Future of the Church: Synod, Scandal, and Solace," sponsored by the Catholic Women's Forum, a program of the Ethics and Public Policy Center. There's so much I can and want to say about Kate O'Beirne, but I hope these brief remarks help us all a little. |
3 new crewmembers launch to space station after Russian rocket failure in October Posted: 03 Dec 2018 04:05 AM PST The International Space Station is about to get three new residents. On Monday, NASA astronaut Anne McClain, Canadian astronaut David Saint-Jacques, and Russian cosmonaut Oleg Kononenkoof launched to the orbiting outpost aboard a Russian Soyuz rocket. The launch marked the first crewed flight of the Soyuz since a major failure of the rocket in October when the booster malfunctioned with an astronaut and a cosmonaut aboard. The astronaut and cosmonaut got back to Earth safely after an abort was triggered by the Soyuz, blasting them away from the failing rocket. In the time between launches, Russia and NASA have investigated the cause of the accident and determined that it wouldn't be a problem during Monday's launch. And luckily, they were right. If all continues to go according to plan with the Monday launch, the three crew members should arrive at the space station in about six hours. McClain, Saint-Jacques, and Kononenkoof before launch.Image: NASA/Victor ZelentsovThe October accident marked the first Soyuz malfunction in the space system's decades as a reliable workhorse for Russia's space program. It was particularly troubling considering the fact that the Soyuz is currently the only spacecraft and rocket that can take humans to space these days, since the end of the space shuttle program in 2011. NASA hopes that SpaceX and Boeing will change that when their human-rated space launch systems come online in the coming years. McClain, Saint-Jacques, and Kononenkoof are expected to live and work on the station for about 6.5 months.

The anti-establishment leftist known as AMLO, who assumed the presidency Saturday, got down to business with a 6:00 am meeting with his public-security team, followed by a 7:00 am press conference -- something his predecessor, Enrique Pena Nieto, habitually avoided. "I promise you there will be no impunity, not in this terribly sad and painful case, and not in any other," Lopez Obrador said at a ceremony where the students' parents were present. |

French government considers state of emergency over Paris yellow vests protests Posted: 02 Dec 2018 03:08 AM PST France is considering imposing a state of emergency to stop a repeat of the violence in Paris that left swathes of the city centre looking like a war zone and injured 133 people. President Emmanuel Macron returned from a G20 summit in Argentina on Sunday morning and went directly to the Arc de Triomphe to assess the damage at the historic monument caused by so-called "yellow vest" anti-tax protestors. The arch, which lies at the top of the prestigious Champs Elysées avenue, was where the violence kicked off early on Saturday morning before spreading as far as the Louvre and the Opera districts. Under heavy security, Mr Macron spoke with police and firefighters on one of the avenues near the Champs Elysées, with some bystanders cheering but more jeering him, including yellow-jacketed protesters chanting, "Macron, resign!" Young men, many of them with their faces masked, had battled riot police throughout Saturday in some of the capital's poshest areas, smashing shop windows, overturning cars and torching buildings and vehicles, including at least one police car. French President Emmanuel Macron shakes hands with a firefighter during a visit to the streets of Paris Credit: GEOFFROY VAN DER HASSELT/AFP/Getty Images Street cleaners were out in force on Sunday to clear away the burnt-out cars, broken glass and the remains of barricades from the city's worst day of rioting in a decade that saw more than 400 people arrested. Mr Macron was due to hold a lunchtime meeting with the prime minister, interior minister and top security service officials at the Elysée presidential palace to discuss the unrest in Paris and many other French regions. When asked if the government might impose a state of emergency, government spokesman Benjamin Griveaux said it would be among the options considered at the Elysée meeting. At least two "yellow vest" protestors seriously injured when a crowd pushed down railings at Tuileries gardens on Rue de Rivoli in Paris. Gilets jaunes pic.twitter.com/KEET0mSdHY— Rory Mulholland (@mulhollandrory) December 1, 2018 "It is out of the question that each weekend becomes a meeting or ritual for violence," he said. The comment came as calls were being made on social media for the "yellow vests," whose revolt was sparked by planned fuel tax hikes, to meet again next Saturday on the Champs Elysées. The yellow vest movement, which began just a few weeks ago, has morphed into a broad opposition front to Mr Macron, a 40-year-old pro-business centrist elected in May 2017 who is accused of being the "president of the rich" and of neglecting ordinary French people. Protesters defaced the city with slogans such as "the yellow vests will triumph" Credit: GEOFFROY VAN DER HASSELT/AFP/Getty Images Violent anarchist and far-right groups have since infiltrated it and are thought to be behind many of Saturday's clashes in Paris. Mr Macron faces a dilemma in how to respond to the "yellow vests", not least because they are a grassroots movement with no formal leaders and a wide range of demands. An estimated 75,000 demonstrators, most of them peaceful, were counted across the country on Saturday, the interior ministry said. |
