Canadians to patrol the skies near Russian border-7:02 am, September 1st, 2014-SUNNEWS

SIAULIAI, Lithuania - The sabre-rattling words of two world leaders have the hair on the back of people's necks here standing on end.The first were most frightening for people in this region, which in its history has been occupied by both the Nazis and the Soviets.Russian President Vladimir Putin called for the "political organization of society and statehood in southeastern Ukraine." This after NATO allies - including Canada - demanded Russia not engage in any activity in independent Ukraine.Then, Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite said Russia is "practically in a war against Europe."Aurelija Jurgilaite, who manages a hotel here, says the war of words isn't lost on locals.There is a tense feeling in the air."It's scary," said the 23-year- old, who was born the same year Lithuania gained independence after 50 years of being part of the old Soviet Union."I was basically born into a free country but my parents were not." But how about her kids in the future? "We are really worried about it," she said. "We don't understand why Putin has decided to do this. I think he has everything in life and has decided now he wants a war."Even though people here are worried about the Russians coming, right now it's the Canadians who have arrived.

More than 130 Canadians are on the ground.

In fact, the Canadian Air Task Force Lithuania will take over responsibility for air patrols here from the British on Monday. Six CF-18 Hornets from 425 Alouette Squadron based at CFB Bagotville, Quebec flew over from Romania and will begin protecting the skies of the Baltic states Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia immediately."We do thank them," Jurgilaite said. "We do feel safer with them here."The Baltic State Policing mission also includes air forces from Portugal, Germany, Estonia and the Netherlands."This is Canada's first time to have fighter jets in the Baltics so it is Canadian history happening," said Capt. Christopher Daniel, who hails from Ottawa and works out of CFB Trenton in Ontario. "I can tell you we are all very proud to be here to protect the Baltic airspace and to serve with our allies."That they're patrolling the skies and expect to perhaps have to intercept Russian aircraft in the months ahead is concerning for the Kancelskis family.Their young boys - Titas, 6, and Matas, 5 - only know peace and freedom here.But when mom Egle and dad Delvis were their age, they knew about living under the thumb of the communist Soviet Union."It's better now obviously," Delvis said.They would like to keep it that way and make sure their kids never have to experience what they did.Canada and its NATO allies are trying to make sure they won't.Jurgilaite said she's crossing her fingers and praying."We here just wish Vladimir Putin would just shut up about all this."

New EU foreign policy chief criticises Putin-01.09.14 @ 18:48-By EUOBSERVER

The EU's newly-nominated foreign policy chief, Italy's Mogherini, Monday criticised Russian leader Putin, saying he has "never respected the commitments" he made on Ukraine and that he is "acting against the interests of [his] people". Eastern European state had earlier opposed her nomination on grounds she is too Russia-friendly.

Who is Tusk and what does he mean for the EU?-Today @ 18:44-SEPT 1,14-EUOBSERVER-By Andrew Rettman

BRUSSELS - Quiet, pragmatic, tenacious - some compare Donald Tusk, the Polish prime minister and newly-chosen EU Council chief, to German chancellor Angela Merkel. But unlike her, he has “given up” on Moscow, with Russia relations set to make or break his EU tenure.Tusk will take over the EU baton from Belgium’s Herman Van Rompuy on 1 December.He might stay for two and a half years or for five. But his fellow centre-right EU leaders have refused to give the job, a priori, to the centre left in 2017.Opinion is divided on how he got the post.For some, such as Charles Grant, the director of the London-based think tank, the Centre for European Reform (CER), the EU appointed a Pole as “a signal to Russia” it will not tolerate war-mongering in the east.For others, such as Judy Dempsey, a Berlin-based analyst at the Carnegie Europe think tank, it was more to do with internal EU logarithms.In the run-up to Saturday’s (30 August) summit, Italy secured the backing of France and Germany for the Italian foreign minister to be the new EU foreign relations chief.With Luxembourg’s Jean-Claude Juncker already installed as European Commission head, eastern European states threatened to create a deadlock in negotiations if they got nothing.The EU’s eastern bloc began lobbying for one of its own to get a senior post two years ago.For his part, Tusk decided to leave Polish politics for Brussels less than 24 hours before he said Yes last weekend.

Who is Donald Tusk?

The 57-year old was born in Gdansk, on the Baltic Sea coast, into a blue-collar family.He studied history at Gdansk University and organised youth cells for Solidarnosc, an anti-Communist movement, later saying: “Communism was something so hideous that you had to be an exceptional conformist or a fool not to see the evil around you”.He is married, with two adult children, and is a liberal Roman Catholic.He speaks English, German, and Kashubian (a Gdansk dialect). But he is wary of speaking English in public after people made fun of his accent at a US meeting in 2008.He likes popular culture: Quentin Tarantino films; Lord of the Rings; football.But he is deeply serious: “Politics was always my husband’s passion, and it’s impossible to compete with passion”, his wife, Malgorzata, said in her autobiography.Tusk has led Poland since 2007 - the only Polish PM to get re-elected since democracy was restored in 1989.The Polish economy grew 20 percent on his watch despite Europe’s economic crisis.He has slugged it out for Polish interests in the EU Council - fighting for a bigger slice of the EU budget, protecting Poland’s coal industry from climate change targets - but managed to do it without making enemies.He believes in deeper EU integration, but he believes in it mainly for security reasons.When Poland took up the EU rotating presidency in 2011, he said joining the euro is like joining Nato in terms of cementing Poland’s place in the Western bloc.He also sees the US as Poland’s most important ally. Marcin Zaborowski, the director of the Warsaw-based think tank, Pism, described him as an "Atlanticist". He said that "in a situation like this [reacting to the Russia-Ukraine war], Tusk would look at what’s feasible in the EU sphere. But if push comes to shove, he knows you need to work with the Americans".

What does Tusk mean for the EU?

Zaborowski compared Tusk’s style to Merkel’s. “They get on well at a personal level. The chemistry is good. She’s not hyped up with ideology. She’s pragmatic, and you might say the same thing about Tusk”.But similarities between the two have their limits.When Tusk took up the EU job on Saturday, he said he has three priorities: to bring an eastern European “sensitivity” to Russia relations; to make sure the UK does not leave; and to stop divisions between eurozone and non-eurozone states getting bigger.His first point was an understatement.“The main expectation in Poland is that Tusk will make EU policy toward the east … represent the interests of central Europeans”, another Pism analyst, Sebastian Plocennik, said.“Tusk’s appointment only has meaning if he can persuade member states to push forward with a much stronger European foreign and defence policy … This is Poland’s chance and he can’t blow it,” Carnegie’s Dempsey added.

It will not be an easy task.

On one hand, EU leaders do not like being upstaged by EU officials, especially if they disagree on substance.“His [Tusk’s] approach to Russia is very different from Germany. The German approach is to find scope for compromise, to avoid confrontation. Tusk has given up on that. He doesn’t believe that by being softer and taking a step backward, we can accommodate Russian concerns”, Zaborowski noted.On the other hand, events in the east might get so bad that EU institutions become irrelevant.“So much could happen before December [when Tusk takes up the EU post], Russia could wreak so much havoc, that EU appointments no longer carry any weight”, Dempsey said.In other areas, Tusk’s Atlanticism could be a boost for EU-US free trade talks. His pro-EU convictions, with the pro-integration Juncker by his side in the commission, bode well for EU economic reforms.But if Tusk risks clashing with Merkel on Russia, he also risks clashing with the UK’s David Cameron on deeper EU integration, and with French president Francois Hollande on the eurozone.The CER’s Grant said the fact that Tusk, whose country has not yet adopted the euro, is to chair summits of eurozone states, will cause “institutional tension”.“France wants to build up the eurozone summit as a separate institution and Tusk’s appointment might give him the argument he needs. We might see pressure from Hollande to create a separate chairman for eurozone summits”, Grant warned.

What does it mean for Poland?

Polish diplomats reacted with pride on Saturday to what they see as a historic shift in European politics.“ There is a deeply-rooted suspicion that eastern Europe was seen as different, something between Russia and the ‘real’ Europe. This feeling can be alleviated by access to the top posts in the EU. Poland can start to feel as part of core Europe”, Pism’s Plocennik explained.But on a mundane level, Tusk’s appointment poses questions on who will be Poland’s next EU commissioner and next PM.Poland had nominated its foreign minister, Radoslaw Sikorski, to be EU foreign policy chief (and commissioner). Polish diplomats say he might still take the energy portfolio if he can, noting that that Belgians held both the EU Council post and the (decent) trade portfolio in the EU commission.But with Sikorski known for his big personality, CER’s Grant said “there would be too many big Poles doing big jobs” for other countries to swallow.The Pism analysts said Tusk is likely to aim lower - for instance, the competition portfolio - naming Danuta Huebner (an ex-commissioner), Elzbieta Bienkowska (deputy PM), or Tomasz Bielecki (former PM) as Sikorski alternatives.Meanwhile, Tusk has promised to name his successor for the Polish PM post later this week. Pundits favour Ewa Kopacz, the parliament speaker. But they note that Grzegorz Schetyna, a former deputy PM, could battle her for the job, causing a rift in Tusk’s PO party and, potentially, snap elections.PO narrowly lost to the opposition PiS party, led by firebrand patriot Jaroslaw Kaczynski, in EU elections in May.And so, the elevation of Poland’s most EU-friendly politician in Brussels, could hoist its biggest EU-troublemaker back to power at home.“Some people think it [the loss of Tusk] will weaken PO and open the gates for Kaczynski to come back. Other voices say it might push PO to reform and cause a renewal of the party. It’s too early to call”, Pism’s Zaborowski said.

Cameron faces new EU referendum backlash-Today @ 09:22-SEPT 1,14-EUOBSERVER-By Benjamin Fox

BRUSSELS - David Cameron is under new pressure from a eurosceptic backlash inside his Conservative party, amid reports that up to 100 of his MPs will promise to vote for Britain's withdrawal from the EU after the next election.The move, reported by the Independent on Sunday (August 31), follows the defection of backbench MP Douglas Carswell to the eurosceptic Ukip party last week. Carswell called a snap by-election in the process, stating that Cameron's promise to reform rather than leave the EU was one the principle reasons for his defection.Opinion polls released over the weekend suggested that Carswell will hold his Clacton seat in Essex, a region where Ukip topped the poll in May's European elections, as Ukip's candidate by a margin of more than 40 points over the Conservative candidate.Ukip has prioritised 12 seats, most of them currently held by Conservatives, as it tries to make its first breakthrough into the Westminster parliament, even as Conservatives fear that a surge in support for the anti-EU party would lead to Labour, which does not support an EU referendum, winning next May's election.For his part, Cameron has promised to renegotiate the UK's EU membership terms followed by an in/out referendum in 2017 if the Conservatives win next year's election. He, and the majority of his ministers, have maintained that they would vote to remain in a reformed EU.Meanwhile, a survey of more than 3,200 businesses across the UK found that six in 10 felt that a British exit would damage the country's economic prospects, although they supported renegotiation of the UK's membership terms.Fifty nine percent of responding firms stated that leaving the EU would cause economic harm. Sixty percent believe that remaining in the EU while transferring specific powers back to Westminster would have a positive impact.At the same time, 46 percent said that further integration with the EU would damage economic prospects.“These results show that firms believe a renegotiated relationship with the EU, rather than further integration or outright withdrawal, is most likely to deliver economic benefit for the UK," said John Longworth, the British Chambers of Commerce's director general.Companies were "frustrated by the slow progress of the single market in services," he noted.For his part, Donald Tusk, the newly appointed European Council chief, said at the weekend that he would "certainly meet the concerns voiced by Britain", adding that many of Cameron's plans to reform the bloc were "acceptable to reasonable politicians in Europe.""No reasonable person can imagine an EU without Britain," he said.

Pre-Summit Press Conference by NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen at Residence Palace, Brussels-Last updated: 01 Sep. 2014 19:59-NATO
Good afternoon.Our Summit in Wales this week will take place in a changed world.  It will address the challenges of a changed world. And so I expect it to be a crucial summit in NATO’s history.This is a time of multiple crises on several fronts. To the east, Russia is intervening overtly in Ukraine.    To the south, we see growing instability, with fragile states, the rise of extremism, and sectarian strife.These crises can erupt with little warning. Move at great speed. And they all affect our security in different ways.NATO's greatest responsibility remains to protect and defend our populations and our territories. We also need the capacity to manage crises. And to work with partners to help build stability.So at the Summit, we will ensure that the Alliance remains ready, able and willing to defend all Allies against any attack.We will agree a Readiness Action Plan to make NATO more agile than ever.The Readiness Action Plan responds to Russia’s aggressive behavior – but it equips the Alliance to respond to all security challenges, wherever they may arise.We already have a NATO Response Force. This is a multinational force, which brings together land, air, maritime and special operation forces. It can be deployed anywhere in the world, for collective defence or crisis management.We will now significantly enhance the responsiveness of our NATO Response Force. We will develop what I would call a spearhead within our Response Force – a very high readiness force able to deploy at very short notice. This spearhead would be provided by Allies in rotation, and could include several thousand troops, ready to respond where needed with air, sea and Special Forces support.This will require reception facilities on NATO territory and pre-positioned equipment and supplies, command and control and logistics experts. So this force can travel light, but strike hard if needed.We will also look at possible upgrades to national infrastructure. That could include airfields and ports to support reinforcements, if the need arises.And we will improve our early warning through an upgrade of our intelligence gathering and sharing. We will update our defence plans; and enhance our training schedule with more exercises, of more types, in more places, more often.The Readiness Action Plan will ensure that we have the right forces and the right equipment in the right place, at the right time. That also means more visible NATO presence in the East for as long as required. And it will make NATO fitter, faster and more flexible to adjust to all kinds of security challenges.Not because NATO wants to attack anyone. But because the dangers and the threats are more present and more visible. And we will do what it takes to defend our Allies. 

But readiness requires resources.So in Wales, I expect a commitment to increase defence investments as our economies recover. To spend the right amount of money on the right things – deployable forces, well trained and with modern equipment. So that we share the responsibility of collective defence as we share the benefits.At the summit, we will meet with President Poroshenko of Ukraine and make clear our support for Ukraine, as it is confronted by Russia’s aggression. We will discuss his reform priorities. And take concrete steps to help Ukraine.The crises we face reach far beyond our borders. That is why our approach to security reaches beyond our borders too.We have an unparalleled network of partners around the world.  In Afghanistan we built the largest coalition in recent history, with one quarter of the world’s nations.  And  through  our operations, we have become better at working together than ever before.In Wales, we will further improve the way we train, cooperate and consult with our partners. And strengthen and streamline the way we support countries which seek our help to develop their security institutions.  So that we can project stability without always projecting large numbers of troops.We will also prepare a new chapter in our relationship with Afghanistan, as our combat mission draws to a close.We have done what we set out to do. We have denied safe haven to international terrorists. We have built up capable Afghan forces of 350,000 troops and police. So our nations are safer, and Afghanistan is stronger.We have planned a new mission to train, advise and assist the Afghan forces from next year and it will be launched once we have the legal arrangements in place.So it is vital to see a conclusion to the electoral process in Afghanistan – a conclusion which is accepted by both candidates, and the Afghan people.So, there is still a lot of work to do.The security landscape can change rapidly, but I am confident that NATO will go forward from the Wales Summit ready to rise to every challenge.And with that, I look forward to your questions.

FATAH-Pakistan: The demon the West created-By Tarek Fatah, Toronto Sun-First posted: Tuesday, August 21, 2012 07:49 PM EDT

August is a month that brings both joy and grief to the 1.3 billion people of the Indian subcontinent. Joy, as we celebrate the end of nearly 200 years of British colonial rule in 1947, and sorrow as we remember the one million who were slaughtered unnecessarily in a genocidal frenzy of religious hatred.Punjab, my ancestral homeland, was sliced in two by the departing British to create the new state of Pakistan. In a few short months, the entire population of Punjab’s indigenous Sikhs and Hindus in Pakistan was either slaughtered or driven out by raging mobs of Muslim fanatics. On the other side of the border, there was more bloodshed. The question often asked is, who penned the partition of India? Who was responsible for carving out Pakistan, a country that seems to have an insatiable appetite for bloodshed, and that has been responsible for, or associated with, more acts of jihadi terrorism then any other country on earth? From Khalid Sheikh Mohammad’s 9/11 plans to the recent recruitment of jihadis in Burma; from the Toronto 18 to the London 7/7 bombings, fingerprints of Pakistan-based jihadi groups and ideologies are ubiquitous. Conventional wisdom and traditional scholarship dictates, Pakistan came about as a result of Muslim grievances and fear of a Hindu-majority rule in post British India. Mohammad Ali Jinnah and the All India Muslim League are given credit for tapping into this sense of victimhood that still drives much of Islamist anger around the world.However, there is more to it than meets the eye. On May 5, 1945, the very day Germany surrendered, Prime Minister Churchill ordered an appraisal of “the long-term policy required to safeguard the strategic interests of the British Empire in India and the Indian Ocean.” Two weeks later Churchill received the top-secret report that, among other proposals, mentioned the necessity of British presence in Northwest India (today’s Pakistan) “from which British air power could threaten Soviet military installations.” When this was brought to the attention of Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, India’s Prime Minister and the Congress, they made it clear they would not accept British bases on Indian soil. On the other hand, Muslim League leader Jinnah was amenable to such an idea.Two months later, Churchill was shockingly defeated by the Labour Party in the election, leaving the task of creating Pakistan for the sake of Western military strategic needs to the socialists.By June 1947, the decision to amputate India was announced in London. It was left to British foreign secretary Ernst Bevin to explain to his party activists why London would seek to destroy what it had built over 100 years as the “Jewel of the British Crown.” Defending the decision that would devastate the lives of millions for decades, Bevin told delegates at a Labour Party Conference that the division of India was necessary because it “would help to consolidate Britain in the Middle East.” It’s no coincidence that within a few years, the U.S. would establish an air base in Pakistan to launch its high altitude U2 spy aircraft until one day in 1960 when a U2 was shot down over Russia and Gary Powers was captured.Thus came the great divide on August 14-15, 1947. After partition, the UK handed over the baton to the US ,who invested heavily into Pakistan becoming a frontline anti-communist military state. Today, the USSR is dead, but Pakistan is alive and has become America’s demon; one that successive U.S. administrations cannot put back into the bottle.My next book, “Pakistan: The Demon America Created” dwells in detail the tragic division of India and the monster of Islamism that morphed out of the Cold War and now haunts and hunts its own maker.

Norway’s Muslims rally against ISIS-By Tarek Fatah, Toronto Sun-First posted: Wednesday, August 27, 2014 05:40 PM EDT | Updated: Wednesday, August 27, 2014 10:29 PM EDT

Tarek Fatah chats with anti-Oslo protesters in Norway. Tarek Fatah chats with anti-ISIS protesters in Norway.“We have to kill each and every one of them, wherever we find ISIS.”Yezen Al Obaide was speaking to me amid last-minute preparations in the pouring rain for a rally Monday by Norway’s Muslims against the Islamic State (ISIS) terrorist group.As hundreds gather in Oslo’s historic Gronland neighbour hood with signs saying “No to ISIS”, Obaidea, one of the organizers of the event, told me as he arranged the podium:“Our Prophet Mohammed had prophesized that evil men will emerge and spread terror in the name of Islam and we Muslims were ordered to kill them wherever we found them.”Norway has been home to radical Muslims for quite some time.In one event in Oslo last year, 4,000 Muslim attendees raised their hands in support of sharia law and the killing of gays.A week before the protest, their leaders urged Muslims in the country to back ISIS.The Monday protest was intended to help stem the rising tide of Islamic radicalism.I talked to many Arab and Somali women in hijab, and asked them if they renounced the doctrine of armed jihad, or opposed the use of sharia as a source of public law.Not one was against jihad, but they all insisted they were against ISIS.Later, the crowd of more than 5,000 Norwegians, including hundreds of Muslims, marched to Norway’s parliament, where Prime Minister Erna Solberg spoke.She quoted the Prophet Mohammed saying, “If one of you sees something wrong, let him change it with his hand; if he cannot, then with his tongue; if he cannot, then with his heart and this is the weakest faith.”Mehran Marri, exiled leader of Balochistan’s Marri tribe in Pakistan’s war-torn Balochistan, where ISIS affiliates are fighting Baloch nationalists, also attended the protest, but thought political correctness was in play.Marri told me marching against ISIS was not enough.“We cannot fight ISIS without fighting the doctrine of jihad and without exposing the bankruptcy of Islamic states such as Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Iran,” he said.
“Too many leaders in the West are reluctant to identify the elephant in the room, which is Islamism. If they cannot fight the ideological foundation of ISIS, then we will see the ISIS cancer spread.”I was hoping to see Emmy Award-winning, Oslo-born Muslim filmmaker Deeyah Khan, who had to flee Norway after harassment from Islamists, but she was not there.Also missing was Norwegian activist Aliaa Magda al- Mahdy, who received death threats after she uploaded a picture of herself menstruating and defecating with another woman on an ISIS flag.I asked Khalid Thataal, who came to Norway from Pakistan in 1970, why Islamists often dominate the Muslim discourse in Norway.He told me, “It’s because Islamic leaders have stifled any secular or humanist discourse among Norway’s Muslim community.”Deeyah Khan told me in an email, the harassment she faced at the hands of Norway’s Islamists was not isolated.“A Norwegian-Pakistani comedienne, Shabana Rehman, has been threatened and harassed for years, a young female Somali author was attacked and beaten in the streets of Oslo.”Nevertheless, she said, the event was a step in the right direction.The fact the keynote speaker was 19-year old Faten Al-Mahdi, a young woman who denounced the radical Norwegian group Profetens Ummah as “The Devils Ummah”, shows there is light at the end of the Muslim tunnel, but we have miles to go before we rest.
