UK seeks Nordic support on EU reform By Benjamin Fox-AUG 24,15-EUOBSERVER

BRUSSELS, Today, 09:25-UK finance minister George Osborne will kick off his government’s bid to reform its EU membership terms on a tour of Sweden and Denmark on Monday (24 August), promising that the UK’s reform agenda will also benefit them.Osborne, who is PM David Cameron’s closest ally in government and a likely replacement when the prime minister steps down ahead of the next general election in 2020, will meet with Swedish prime minister Stefan Loefven and Denmark’s premier Lars Loekke Rasmussen, as well as foreign and finance ministers.He also met with Finland’s finance minister Alexander Stubb on Sunday.Osborne will tell counterparts the UK hopes to “reform the EU so its works for all its citizens,” according to a statement released by the treasury office.“We are determined to deliver a new settlement for Europe that works for everyone within it", he will say.Having claimed an election victory in May which gave his Conservative party an outright majority, Cameron swiftly announced plans to hold an in/out referendum on EU membership by the end of 2017.At an EU summit in June, he set out a list of demands, including guarantees that decision-making on the EU’s single market will not be dominated by the 19 eurozone countries; curbs on access to welfare benefits for EU migrants; and an opt-out from the preamble to EU treaties which talks of moving towards “ever closer Union”.Like the UK, Sweden and Denmark are outside the eurozone and have no plans to join the currency bloc any time soon.Both countries are also viewed as traditional allies of the UK in European affairs, being more sceptical of European integration, and voting with the UK on EU budget reform.Meanwhile, the domestic battle over the UK’s EU status will begin in earnest next month.The No campaign - likely to be dominated by eurosceptic Conservatives and Ukip - is expected to formally launch in the coming weeks, having amassed a war chest of over £7 million (€9 million), mainly from Conservative donors.The group is likely to be led by Matthew Elliott, a former aide to Conservative MEP Timothy Kirkhope.Elliott previously ran eurosceptic organisations such as Business for Britain and the Taxpayers’ Alliance.The government’s EU referendum bill will also face the report stage in the UK parliament this autumn, where it is likely to be amended by both the government and opposition parties.

Train scare prompts talks of EU security rules By Nikolaj Nielsen-EUOBSERVER

BRUSSELS, 24. Aug, 18:37-Transport ministers are set to discuss security measures at train stations at their next meeting in October, after a gunman boarded the international high-speed Thalys train in Brussels.The European Commission on Monday (24 August) said it wants security to be a top issue at the October meeting and is willing to propose new legislative measures, if necessary.“We have shown that we are politically willing to discuss potential legislative measures at the Transport Council in October,” Jakub Adamowicz, a commission spokesman, told reporters in Brussels.But the commission said any EU-level response to the foiled attack cannot undermine the Schengen passport-free travel between the 26 participating member states.“We have to take measures which are necessary but we don’t want to overreact, which could turn out to be counter-productive, so we have to respect proportionality”, said Adamowicz.Ayoub el-Khazzani, a 26-year old Moroccan, boarded the Thalys train armed with AK-47 assault rifle and automatic pistol on Friday at the Midi station in Brussels.Passengers wrestled the suspected Islamist to the ground as he was loading the assault rifle after the train crew barricade itself in an adjoining staff room.Thalys noted that two of its agents had also assisted in taking down el-Khazzani.-Adapting Schengen-Charles Michel, Belgium’s prime minister, has since called for an emergency meeting with France, Germany and the Netherlands.His office said the talks would revolve around ideas on "how to reinforce anti-terrorist measures, notably identity and baggage controls”.Michel in a tweet was quoted as suggesting that new border control rules may need to be adopted despite the Schengen rules.His spokesperson Frederic Cauderlier told this website that the controls won’t undermine Schengen but must be adapted to confront the reality of terrorism.“Yes to the free movement of people but No to free movement of people armed with Kalashnikovs,” he said.Cauderlier said neighbouring countries like Germany, France, Luxembourg and the Netherlands “tell us the same thing, they are conscious that we must reinforce border control checks. But let me very clear, we do not question Schengen.”He said borders won’t be closed and no X-ray machines will be installed at train stations. Instead, he said only spot-check controls will be imposed.“It is impossible for us to check the IDs of every passenger in trains or planes inside the Schengen zone,” he said.-Sensitive issue-He said French-Belgian cooperation will also get a boost, including sending in more police patrols in Paris and Brussels stations.The issue of identity checks is sensitive given the strict EU rules on free movement.Systematic border control checks are outlawed but member states can, in case of serious threat to internal or public security, reintroduce them for a period of up to 30 days.“Security checks that are conducted for the purpose of railway security can be compatible within the Schengen framework if they do not have an effect equivalent to border checks,” said EU commission spokesperson Christian Wiegand.Asked to specify, Wiegand said any police border checks must be targeted on known actions.He said ID checks on trains are possible but only “if they do not have an equivalent to border checks.”

A FALSE PROPHET COMES FROM THE VATICAN ALSO AT THIS TIME.

ISAIAH 23:15-17
15  And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as an harlot.
16  Take an harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered.
17  And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the LORD will visit Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire, and shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.(COULD THIS BE 70 YEARS AFTER ISRAEL BECAME A NATION IN 1948)(IF SO THIS SATANIC ONE WORLD WHORE CHURCH WILL MINGLE TOGETHER BY 2018)(AND NOW ISLAM AND CHRISTIANITY AND ALL RELIGIONS ARE MINGLING AS ONE PEACE-LOVE-JOY-GET ALONG RELIGION LEAD BY THE VATICAN RIGHT NOW 4 YEARS FROM THE 70 YEAR TIME WHEN ISRAEL BECAME A NATION).AND IN CONTROL OF JERUSALEM.

13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

REVELATION 17:1-18
1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication,(VATICAN IN POLITICS) and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 And the woman (FALSE CHURCH) was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour,(VATICAN COLOURS)(ANOTHER REASON WE KNOW THE FALSE POPE COMES FROM THE VATICAN) and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.
8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.(THE VATICAN IS BUILT ON 7 HILLS OR MOUNTAINS)
10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen,(1-ASSYRIA,2-EGYPT,3-BABYLON,4-MEDO-PERSIA,5-GREECE) and one is,(IN POWER IN JOHNS AND JESUS DAY-6-ROME) and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.(7TH-REVIVED ROMAN EMPIRE OR THE EUROPEAN UNION TODAY AND THE SHORT SPACE IS-THE EUROPEAN UNION WILL HAVE WORLD CONTROL FOR THE LAST 3 1/2 YEARS.BUT WILL HAVE ITS MIGHTY WORLD POWER FOR THE FULL 7 YEARS OF THE 7 YEAR TRIBULATION PERIOD.AND THE WORLD DICTATOR WILL BE THE BEAST FROM THE EU.AND THE VATICAN POPE WILL BE THE WHORE THAT RIDES THE EUROPEAN UNION TO POWER.AND THE 2 EUROPEAN UNION POWER FREAKS WILL CONTROL AND DECIEVE THE WHOLE EARTH INTO THEIR DESTRUCTION.IF YOU ARE NOT SAVED BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS.YOU WILL BE DECIEVED BY THESE TWO.THE WORLD POLITICIAN-THE EUROPEAN UNION DICTATOR.AND THE FALSE PROPHET THAT DEFECTS CHRISTIANITY-THE FALSE VATICAN POPE.
11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.(VATICAN-CATHOLICS ALL AROUND THE WORLD OVER 1 BILLION)
16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast,(WORLD DICTATOR) these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

08/22/2015 -Jubilee: Passes only required for Holy Door at St. Peter’s Basilica-St. Peter's Square-The organising secretariat has said no passes will be available for the other basilicas; online registration via the website is “advisable” in order to avoid queueing”; there will also be “a pedestrian path”-vatican insider staff-VATICAN INSIDER

Turin-Pilgrims wishing to cross the Holy Door during the Jubilee will only have to register online for the one at St. Peter’s Basilica. “The pilgrimage to the Holy Doors at the other Papal Basilicas of Rome (Saint John Lateran, Saint Mary Major, and Saint Paul Outside the Walls) will not be subject to registration.” The organising secretariat for the Jubilee published this information a couple of days ago.As far as pilgrims with disabilities and other particular medical needs are concerned, “all four of the Papal Basilicas, in addition to being equipped with a First Aid station, will be staffed by volunteers at the service of pilgrims.  Some of these volunteers will be appointed to help disabled persons,” the secretariat added.“To assist the Italian health authorities, it is useful to indicate particular medical needs (dialysis, oxygen, etc.) when you register,” the secretariat advised. The secretariat also “strongly recommend[s]” that pilgrims register to visit the Holy Door of St. Peter’s Basilica partly in order to avoid queueing. “To permit pilgrims to carry out a brief pilgrimage to the Holy Door of Saint Peter's Basilica, there will be a walking path reserved for them.”The pedestrian path “will begin at Castel Sant'Angelo and finish at the Holy Door, passing through Via Della Conciliazione, Piazza Pio XII and Saint Peter's Square.” “Pilgrims register their arrival in Rome and the possible times at which they wish to make their pilgrimage. “The passage through the Holy Door can accommodate a limited number of pilgrims.  To avoid unnecessary delays and to ensure that the pilgrimage remains prayerful, it is important, especially for organized groups, to contact the Organizational Secretariat in advance. This can be done through the official Jubilee web site (www.im.va), on the page "Registration for Pilgrims," which will be activated in October.”“Once pilgrims are registered on the website, in addition to being able to sign up for the major events, they will be able to choose the date and approximate time of their pilgrimage to the Holy Door of Saint Peter's. The Organizational Secretariat will confirm the request for the pilgrimage and indicate the best time to arrive at the beginning of the protected pathway.  This system will reduce delays to the minimum, and help to guarantee an atmosphere of prayer and welcome during the pilgrimage on foot to the Holy Door. Groups or single pilgrims may register for the pilgrimage.  It is recommended that even small informal groups or families complete a single registration, in order to be certain that they can make the pilgrimage together at the same time.”“For additional information, or for pilgrims who may not have registered ahead of time on the web site, we invite you to visit the Welcome Centre for Pilgrims at Via Della Conciliazione, 7, which will be open as soon as possible. Volunteers there will help you to arrange your pilgrimage at the best possible time.”

08/22/2015 -VATICAN INSIDER-Pope joins faithful at altar of St. Pius X-Yesterday morning Francis kneeled down to pray before the tomb of his Venetian predecessor, remembered for his catechism and his promotion of communion for children. “I am a devotee of St. Pius X”, Francis recalled. The Pope previously had the nativity scene in St. Peter’s Basilica moved so that it would not conceal the tomb of the saint-ANDREA TORNIELLI

vatican city-“I am a devotee of St. Pius X…” This is how Francis explained his presence among the faithful in the chapel dedicated to St. Pius X to Mgr. Lucio Bonora. The chapel, located in St. Peter’s Basilica, houses the relics of the late Venetian Pope. Lucio Bonora is a prelate from Treviso in northern Italy who works in the Secretariat of State and is a scholar of St. Pius X. On Friday 21 August, the day the Church commemorates St. Pius X, Francis celebrated a private early morning mass and entered the Basilica to pray at the tomb of his predecessor. At 7, while he was kneeling down at the altar, Fr. Bonora began his own mass celebration. When he entered the chapel, he saw about 50 or so faithful and lo and behold, the Pope was there too. According to the website of Treviso’s diocesan weekly La Vita del Popolo, Francis decided to stay for the mass celebration. He rose from the pew to exchange the embrace of peace and got in line to receive communion, followed by a moment of worship when Francis gave thanks kneeling. “At the end, the celebrant invited those who had rushed over in great numbers, to entrust all the needs of their families and the Church, particularly his (St. Pius X’s) successor, Pope Francis, to St. Pius X,” La Vita del Popolo writes. After mass, Francis confided to Mgr. Bonora that he had prayed for catechists in particular. In Argentina, St. Pius X, the “catechism Pope”, is the patron saint of catechists. As Archbishop of Buenos Aires, on the feast day of St. Pius X, the now Pope would meet catechists from the diocese. “I came to say a private prayer,” Francis told Bonora, “because I celebrated mass early, but then I saw you coming to the altar to celebrate and I decided to stay… I told you I’m a devotee of St. Pius X.”The Pope’s devotion for the saint is also evident from one other fact: ever since the first Christmas after his election in December 2013, Francis gave instructions for the nativity scene inside St. Peter’s Basilica to cease being prepared in the chapel of St. Pius X. This tradition prevented faithful from worshiping at the saint’s tomb for months, in other words the time it took to prepare and set up the nativity scene to be displayed. The tomb of the saint would therefore be concealed by the structure during this time. The nativity scene has now been moved a bit further away, to the Baptistry Chapel so the altar of St. Pius X is accessible at all times.A man of the people, Pius X, born Giuseppe Melchiorre Sarto, abstained from formalisms and after being appointed Canon of the Cathedral at Treviso, he never wore the vestment trimmed in red, a privilege of monsignors. His former parishioners said of him: “El xe vegnuo con la veste sbrisa – el xe partio senza la camisa” (“he arrived with a patched up vestment and left without a shirt”). He was named Bishop of Mantua and later Patriarch of Venice and would always repeat: “I am nothing but a poor cardinal from the countryside”. He was very generous with the poor. He sent his gold watch to the pawnbroker and desisted from purchasing the cappa magna, an ecclesiastical vestment with a long train, worn by cardinals. He preferred instead, to adjust the old and worn one used by his predecessor, patching it up with the help of some nuns. He even managed to pawn his episcopal ring in order to get coins, which he could give to the needy.He was elected Pope in 1903, after a controversial conclave. Two months after his election he began teaching the catechism, even as Pope, gathering Roman faithful on Sunday afternoons in the Courtyard of the “Pigna”. It was this pastoral sensitivity that made him averse to long sermons. He once jokingly said that any homily that went on for longer than ten minutes was a deadly sin. He wanted to break with the tradition of applause addressed to the Pope as he was carried in procession on the gestatorial chair down the central nave of St. Peter’s Basilica: “It is not fitting that the servant should be applauded in his Master's house,” he said.Pius X wrote: “When mistakes are reprimanded too severely and when vices are condemned too rashly, often more harm comes from this than good.” Just after his election, he returned the precious pectoral cross and decided to keep the one he had been wearing before. In the first few months of his pontificate he began a deep reform of the Roman Curia. He had looked into how to considerably reduce the number of dioceses in Italy, he introduced a more sober way of doing things and wanted priests to be shepherds of souls, paying particular attention to the poor. He presented the Eucharist not as a prize for those who are already perfect but as a daily support for people to get closer to God. He also decided it should be administered to children. He scaled down the role of the Secretary of State and was keen to keep bishops and priests away from politics.

North, South Korea reach agreement to ease tensions-Reuters By James Pearson and Ju-min Park-AUG 24,15-YAHOONEWS

SEOUL (Reuters) - North and South Korea reached agreement early on Tuesday to end a standoff involving an exchange of artillery fire that had pushed the divided peninsula into a state of heightened military tension.Under the accord reached after midnight on Tuesday morning after more than two days of talks, North Korea expressed regret over the recent wounding of South Korean soldiers in a landmine incident and Seoul agreed to halt anti-Pyongyang propaganda broadcasts, both sides said.North Korea also agreed to end the "semi" state of war it had declared. The two sides will hold follow-up talks to discuss a range of issues on improving ties, the joint statement said."It is very meaningful that from this meeting North Korea apologized for the landmine provocation and promised to work to prevent the recurrence of such events and ease tensions," Kim Kwan-jin, national security adviser to South Korean President Park Geun-hye, told a televised news briefing.Pyongyang has previously denied laying the landmines, and in the statement did not explicitly take responsibility for them.The marathon talks at the Panmunjom truce village inside the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) separating the two Koreas began on Saturday, shortly after Pyongyang's deadline for the South to halt its propaganda broadcasts or face military action."They both made compromises. South Korea did not get an apology, they got a statement of regret about the injury, which they can spin as an apology," said John Delury of Yonsei University in Seoul."The more important point is maintaining this channel and reopening the relationship. This is hardly going to be easy to implement, but it’s a landmark agreement which lays out a path."Seoul and Pyongyang have remained technically in a state of war since the 1950-53 Korean war ended in a truce, rather than a peace treaty, and hopes for improved relations have repeatedly been dashed over the years.Inter-Korean relations have been all but frozen since the 2010 sinking of a South Korean warship, which killed 46 sailors, that Seoul blames on the North. Pyongyang denies responsibility.Under Tuesday's deal, the two sides also agreed to arrange reunions of families separated by the Korean War during upcoming autumn holidays and in future.The recent escalation in tensions began early this month, when landmine explosions in the DMZ wounded two South Korean soldiers.Days later, the South began blasting anti-Pyongyang propaganda from loudspeakers along the border, reviving a tactic that both sides had halted in 2004.The standoff reached a crisis point on Thursday when the North fired four shells into the South, according to Seoul, which responded with a barrage of artillery fire.Pyongyang then made its ultimatum that Seoul halt the broadcasts by Saturday afternoon or face military action, but on that day the two sides agreed to hold talks between top level aides to the leaders of the two countries.Even as talks were ongoing, reclusive North Korea had deployed twice the usual artillery strength at the border and had around 50 submarines away from base, the South's defense ministry said. South Korea had also increased its military readiness.Washington and the United Nations welcomed the agreement."We're going to judge the North by its actions. We welcome this agreement, and are hopeful it leads to decreasing tensions on the peninsula," U.S. State Department spokesman John Kirby told a regular briefing. "It was a very tense several days."North Korea has been hit with U.N. and U.S. sanctions because of repeated nuclear and missile tests, moves that Pyongyang sees as an attack on its sovereign right to defend itself.(Additional reporting by Michelle Nichols in New York and David Brunnstrom and Lesley Wroughton in Washington,; writing by Tony Munroe,; editing by Jack Kim, Larry King)

10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Two people may have committed suicide after Ashley Madison hack: police-[Reuters]-By Alastair Sharp-August 24, 2015-YAHOONEWS

TORONTO (Reuters) - At least two people may have committed suicide following the hacking of the Ashley Madison cheating website, Toronto police said on Monday, warning of a ripple effect that includes scams and extortion of clients desperate to stop the exposure of their infidelity.Avid Life Media Inc, the parent company of the website, is offering a C$500,000 ($379,132) reward to catch the hackers.In addition to the exposure of the Ashley Madison accounts of as many as 37 million users, the attack on the dating website for married people has sparked extortion attempts and at least two unconfirmed suicides, Toronto Police Acting Staff Superintendent Bryce Evans told a news conference.The data dump contained email addresses of U.S. government officials, UK civil servants, and workers at European and North American corporations, taking already deep-seated fears about Internet security and data protection to a new level."Your actions are illegal and will not be tolerated. This is your wake-up call," Evans said, addressing the so-called "Impact Team" hackers directly during the news conference."To the hacking community who engage in discussions on the dark web and who no doubt have information that could assist this investigation, we're also appealing to you to do the right thing," Evans said. "You know the Impact Team has crossed the line. Do the right thing and reach out to us."Police declined to provide any more details on the apparent suicides, saying they received unconfirmed reports on Monday morning."The social impact behind this (hacking) - we're talking about families. We're talking about their children, we're talking about their wives, we're talking about their male partners," Evans told reporters."It's going to have impacts on their lives. We're now going to have hate crimes that are a result of this. There are so many things that are happening. The reality is ... this is not the fun and games that has been portrayed."The investigation into the hacking has broadened to include international law enforcement, with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security joining last week. The U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation and Canadian federal and provincial police are also assisting.Evans also said the hacking has spawned online scams that fraudulently claim to be able to protect Ashley Madison clients' data for a fee.People are also attempting to extort Ashley Madison clients by threatening to send evidence of their membership directly to friends, family or colleagues, Evans said.In a sign of Ashley Madison's deepening woes following the breach, lawyers last week launched a class-action lawsuit seeking some $760 million in damages on behalf of Canadians whose information was leaked.Evans said Avid Life first became aware of the breach on July 12, when several employees booted up their computers and received a message from the infiltrators accompanied by the playing of rock group AC/DC's "Thunderstruck."The company went to police several days later, he said, while the hackers went public on July 20.(Reporting by Alastair Sharp and Andrea Hopkins; Editing by Jeffrey Benkoe)

U.S., Turkey to launch 'comprehensive' anti-Islamic State operation-Reuters By Nick Tattersall-AUG 24,15-YAHOONEWS
ANKARA (Reuters) - Turkey and the United States will soon launch "comprehensive" air operations to flush Islamic State fighters from a zone in northern Syria bordering Turkey, Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told Reuters on Monday.Detailed talks between Washington and Ankara on the plans were completed on Sunday and regional allies including Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Jordan as well as Britain and France may also take part, Cavusoglu said in an interview."The technical talks have been concluded, yesterday, and soon we will start this operation, comprehensive operations, against Daesh (Islamic State)," he said.The United States and Turkey plan to provide air cover for what Washington judges to be moderate Syrian rebels as part of the operations, which aim to flush Islamic State from a rectangle of border territory roughly 80 km (50 miles) long, officials familiar with the plans have said.Diplomats say cutting Islamic State's access to the Turkish border, across which it has been able to bring foreign fighters and supplies, could be a game-changer. U.S. jets have already begun air strikes from Turkish bases in advance of the campaign.Cavusoglu said the operations would also send a message to President Bashar al-Assad and help put pressure on his administration to come to the negotiating table and seek a political solution for Syria's wider war.Ankara has long argued that lasting peace in Syria can only be achieved with Assad's departure. U.S. officials, meanwhile, have made clear that the focus of the coalition operations will be squarely on pushing back Islamic State."Our aim should be eradicating Daesh from both Syria and Iraq, otherwise you cannot bring stability and security," said Cavusoglu, using another name for Islamic State. "But eliminating the root causes of the situation (in Syria) is also essential, which is the regime of course."A Pentagon spokesman said U.S. and Turkish military officials had held talks on Sunday to work out the tactical details of integrating Turkish combat aircraft into the air campaign against Islamic State."We're looking forward in the near future to welcoming Turkey into our combined air operations center," Navy Captain Jeff Davis said in Washington.Cavusoglu said Syrian Kurdish PYD militia forces, which have proved a useful ally on the ground for Washington as it launched air strikes on Islamic State elsewhere in Syria, would not have a role in the "safe zone" that the joint operations aim to create, unless they changed their policies.Ankara is concerned that the PYD and its allies aim to unite Kurdish cantons in northern Syria and fear those ambitions will stoke separatist sentiment among its own Kurds."Yes, the PYD has been fighting Daesh ... But the PYD is not fighting for the territorial integrity or political unity of Syria. This is unacceptable," Cavusoglu said."We prefer that the moderate opposition forces actually control the safe zone, or Daesh-free areas, in the northern part of Syria, not the PYD, unless they change their policies radically in that sense."Both Ankara and Washington had given this message directly to the PYD, he said.-PKK STRIKES TO CONTINUE-Turkey's relations with the PYD, whose forces control territory on the eastern fringe of the proposed safe zone, are complicated by what officials in Ankara say are the group's deep ties with the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), which has fought an insurgency against Turkey for three decades.Cavusoglu said Turkey's military operations against PKK targets in northern Iraq and southeastern Turkey, where Ankara has been carrying out air strikes over the past month, would continue until the group laid down its weapons.The government says it launched the action against the PKK in response to an escalation in attacks on members of Turkish security forces. Cavusoglu said 61 soldiers and police officers had been killed by the group in recent months.Critics say Turkey is using what it calls its "synchronized war on terror", including its greater role in the U.S.-led coalition against Islamic State, as a cover to attack the PKK and try to stem Kurdish political and territorial ambitions.-Ankara denies those accusations.Diplomatic sources told Reuters last Friday that a second group of rebel fighters trained in Turkey by the U.S.-led coalition could be deployed to Syria within weeks as part of the strategy to push back the Islamic State.The al Qaeda-linked Nusra Front said late last month it had detained some of a first group of less than 60 rebels, weeks after they were deployed, and warned others to abandon the program, highlighting their vulnerability."In the second group we have around 100 (fighters)," Cavusoglu said, but made clear that the ground forces were only part of the strategy."The train and equip program (alone) will not be enough to fight Daesh, that is why we agreed with the United States to start joint operations soon," he said.Asked whether Iran's improving relations with West in the wake of its nuclear deal could help the prospects of a diplomatic solution in Syria, Cavusoglu was cautious."We are very happy to see that Iran has been normalizing its diplomatic ties with many Western countries ... Iran has better dialogue with many Western countries and that is what Turkey fully supports," he said, noting Britain's reopening on Sunday of its embassy in Tehran."But the situation in Syria, or in the region including Yemen and Iraq, is totally different to the nuclear deal. What we expect from Iran is a more constructive role in Syria and Iraq, and in Yemen," Cavusoglu said.(Additional reporting by Tulay Karadeniz in Ankara and David Alexander in Washington; Editing by Giles Elgood and Gareth Jones)

Ukraine faces risky year fighting to escape Russian orbit: Poroshenko-Reuters By Natalia Zinets-AUG 24,15-YAHOONEWS

KIEV(Reuters) - President Petro Poroshenko said on Monday Ukraine was facing a precarious year struggling to fend off what he called Russian strategies to undermine Kiev's drive for closer relations with Europe.He spoke at a ceremony in central Kiev to mark 24 years of Ukrainian independence from Moscow, its Soviet-era ruler, and then traveled to Berlin for talks with the leaders of France and Germany on the implementation of a much-violated ceasefire deal with pro-Russian rebels holding parts of eastern Ukraine."We have to get through the (coming) 25th year of independence as if on brittle ice. We must understand that the smallest misstep could be fatal. The war for Ukrainian independence is continuing," he said, addressing a crowd of several thousand.At a news conference later in Berlin with Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Francois Hollande, Poroshenko expressed his appreciation for their backing. "I'm extraordinarily thankful for the support and the efforts for de-escalation."Merkel lamented that the ceasefire agreement was not being respected and said everything must be done to fully implement the broader peace deal reached in Minsk in February.Earlier in Kiev, Poroshenko had said 50,000 Russian troops were massed along the Ukraine-Russia border and a further 9,000 were supporting pro-Russian rebels in separatist territories. New military convoys had been tracked crossing the border into Ukraine last week, he added.While the threat of "full-scale military invasion" remains, Russia "also has an alternative strategy - to undermine the situation in the middle of our country and to put the country at loggerheads with key (foreign) partners, isolating it with the aggressor," he said."GENETIC CODE"-Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov branded Poroshenko's comments as "unfounded and disgraceful", adding: "Their goal is to break the 'genetic code' ensuring the unity of our nations. I think he won't succeed in that."Russia, which annexed Ukraine's Crimea peninsula last year after an uprising toppled a pro-Russian president in Kiev, has dismissed accusations by NATO and other powers that it has sent arms and troops to back separatists in the east.Both sides have withdrawn large numbers of heavy weapons from the conflict zone in line with February's Minsk peace agreement, but clashes still take a steady toll of lives daily.Lavrov reiterated that Russia wanted Germany and France to put pressure on Poroshenko to stick to Ukraine's commitments under the Minsk agreement and to grant the rebel regions greater autonomy. Russia says changes to the Ukrainian constitution to that end fall short of what had been agreed.More than 6,500 people have been killed since fighting erupted in April 2014.(Additional reporting by Andreas Rinke in Belrin, Richard Balmforth in Kiev and Gabriela Baczynska in Moscow, Writing by Alessandra Prentice, Editing by Gareth Jones)

Turkey's Erdogan calls snap polls-AFP By Fulya Ozerkan, Stuart Williams in Istanbul-AUG 24,15-YAHOONEWS

Ankara (AFP) - Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Monday called snap elections in an unprecedented move to break weeks of political stalemate after June's inconclusive legislative polls.A presidential statement released after a meeting between Erdogan and parliament speaker Ismet Yilmaz gave no date for the elections but the president had previously said he expected the polls to be held on November 1.The ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP), co-founded by Erdogan, lost its overall majority in the 550-seat parliament in the June 7 polls for the first time since it came to power in 2002, forcing the party to seek a coalition partner.But the AKP's coalition talks with opposition parties failed to produce a government, an outcome critics say the combative Erdogan sought all along."In line with the constitution, Mr President has decided that the Turkish parliament will undergo renewed elections," the presidency said in a statement.It said Erdogan was exercising his rightful powers to call the polls after no coalition was formed within a 45-day deadline.Erdogan is to meet Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu on Tuesday to discuss arrangements for an interim caretaker government to rule Turkey up to the polls, the official Anatolia news agency said.This is the first time in the history of modern Turkey that parties have failed to form a coalition after elections and repeat polls have been called.Erdogan wants the AKP to win back an overall majority and govern alone.He is also seeking to fulfil his dream of a revamped presidency with boosted executive powers, which will require a majority of at least three fifths.The president indicated in recent weeks that he was not in favour of coalition governments, but dismissed criticism that he had impeded the coalition negotiations.Under Turkey's constitution, Erdogan was obliged to give the second-placed Republican People's Party (CHP) a mandate to lead coalition talks.But he refused to do so because the CHP's leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu refuses to set foot in Erdogan's controversial new presidential palace.The opposition has accused Erdogan of violating the constitution, with Kilicdaroglu blasting the president for seeking to stage a "civilian coup".- 'Dead in the water'-The opposition CHP and the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) have refused to take part in a short-term election government.This forces Davutoglu to hold talks with the pro-Kurdish Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) -- which he has accused of being a front for Kurdish militants from the outlawed PKK -- as well as independent figures to form an interim government.It remains to be seen if November's polls will see the AKP increase its share of vote and win back an outright majority, with many analysts sceptical that the results will be much changed from June 7.Marc Pierini, visiting scholar at Carnegie Europe, said the AKP has a chance of winning back its simple majority but would be unable to win the three-fifths of seats needed to call a referendum to change the constitution and give Erdogan the broader powers he craves."With 258 seats, the AKP was 18 seats short of a single-party government. On November 1, they may -- may -- recoup that loss and be back in power alone," he said."But 258 was very, very far from the 330 seats qualified (three-fifths) majority, so the executive presidency reform is dead in the water," he said.The elections will come at a time of a dual offensive against Kurdish militants and Islamic State jihadists in Iraq and Syria, with some critics blaming Erdogan for operating a "war machine" to seek political gains for his AKP.A spike in violence between Turkish security forces and Kurdish militants has nullified a 2013 ceasefire with the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), which is designated as a terrorist organisation by Turkey and much of the international community.At least 814 Kurdish militants have been killed in Turkey and in neighbouring Iraq while at least 60 members of the Turkish security forces have lost their lives in over one month of fighting, Anatolia reported.Two Turkish soldiers and a policeman were killed in new attacks blamed on PKK militants in the country's restive southeast, officials and the army said Monday.

U.S. to deploy F-22 fighter jets to Europe-Reuters By Andrea Shalal-AUG 24,15-YAHOONEWS

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States will deploy F-22 fighter jets to Europe very soon as part of a broader effort to support eastern European members of the NATO alliance unnerved by Russia's intervention in Ukraine, Air Force Secretary Deborah James said on Monday.James did not give details about the specific number of planes, date or location of the deployment, but said it was in line with Defense Secretary Ash Carter's recent call for a strong and balanced approach to Russia.The first deployment of the Lockheed Martin Corp F-22 to Europe outside air shows is seen as a move to address growing concerns among NATO allies about Russian military aggression. The Air Force has also been using radar-evading F-22 fighter jets to carry out some its attacks against Islamic State, the first real combat air strikes by the jets."Russia's military activity in the Ukraine continues to be of great concern to us and to our European allies," James told a news conference at the Pentagon. "For the Air Force, an F-22 deployment is certainly on the strong side of the coin."Air Force Chief of Staff General Mark Welsh James said the F-22's inaugural training deployment in Europe would allow U.S. forces to train with NATO partners across Europe, testing the ability of the jets to communicate and fight together with the Eurofighter, and other advanced warplanes.James said the deployment would give F-22 pilots more experience with the European terrain. The Air Force has previously deployed the jets in Japan and South Korea.Welsh said it would also allow the jets to fly into and out of facilities that could be used in some future conflict.The single-seat, twin-engine, all weather stealth tactical fighter aircraft was designed by Lockheed and Boeing Co as an air superiority fighter, but it can also be used for ground attack, electronic warfare, and signals intelligence.The jets formally entered service in December 2005, with the last F-22 delivered to the Air Force in 2012.(Additional reporting by Bill Trott; Editing by Sandra Maler, Bernard Orr)

Record wildfire in Washington gets international, local help-Associated Press By NICHOLAS K. GERANIOS and BRIAN MELLEY-AUG 24,15-YAHOONEWS

SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — As Washington state's wildfires burned into the record books Monday, calls for help were answered from far and near.Fire managers from New Zealand and Australia arrived to contribute to a ground campaign led by firefighters from across the West and augmented by U.S. soldiers.The flames that claimed the lives of three firefighters, injured four others and burned 200 homes also inspired an outpouring of volunteers who have been invited for the first time in state history to help battle the blazes.This summer's fire response across the West has been overwhelmed by destructive blazes tearing through the tinder-dry region.The biggest fire burning Monday was in Okanogan County on the Canadian border, where a group of five fires raging out of control became the largest in state history, scorching more than 400 square miles, fire spokesman Rick Isaacson said.Lightning-sparked fires broke the state record, surpassing blazes that destroyed more than 300 homes in the same county last year."I'd like to set some different records," Okanogan County Sheriff Frank Rogers said.The U.S. is in the midst of one of its worst fire seasons on record with some 11,600 square miles scorched so far. It's only the sixth-worst going back to 1960, but it's the most acreage burned by this date in a decade, so the ranking is sure to rise."It's only Aug. 24th," Isaacson said. "In our district we could see this go clear to the first of November."Thirteen firefighters have died nationwide this year, including the three in Washington state who were killed when they tried to escape the fire in a vehicle, crashed and were overrun by flames.So many fires are burning in the state that managers are taking extreme measures, summoning help from Down Under and 200 U.S. troops from a base in Tacoma in the first such use of active-duty soldiers in nine years.Jim Whittington, a Bureau of Land Management spokesman in Portland, Oregon, said military assets cannot be used against wildfires until all civilian resources are deployed.Since 1987, active duty military personnel have been mobilized to serve as wildland firefighters a total of 35 times. The last time was in 2006.Since then, it has not been necessary to ask for military assistance until this fire season, Forest Service officials said.Nearly 4,000 volunteers also answered the state's call for help, far more than will be accepted, said state Department of Natural Resources spokesman Joe Smillie.The state is looking for former firefighters or heavy equipment operators who can bulldoze fire lines to corral the blazes and keep them from spreading in mountainous, timber-covered areas. So far, about 200 people with the right experience have been cleared to work.The 70 firefighters from Australia and New Zealand who arrived at the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho, were being outfitted to fill a critical shortage of mid-level fire managers such as equipment bosses, strike team leaders and supervisors.The Southern Hemisphere nations have been partners with the U.S. for more than 50 years, able to lend out firefighters because the severest part of their fire seasons occur at opposite times of the year. The last time the U.S. asked for their help was 2008, with 50 firefighters arriving. The U.S. sent firefighters abroad in 2007.Chris Arnol, international liaison for Australia and New Zealand firefighters, said at a news conference in Boise the firefighters will be ready for the mountainous terrain in the Pacific Northwest.Warren Heslip, a 47-year-old firefighter from Southland, New Zealand, said the new arrivals were ready for the conditions."We're used to tall timber and steep territory," he said.Costs for the international firefighters will be paid by the agency they're assigned to, officials said, though no estimate was yet available.In Southern California, crews used snow-making cannons to blow water, and planes dropped fire retardant on a 100-acre wildfire burning near the popular Snow Summit ski resort in Big Bear Lake. They were able to build a perimeter halfway around the blaze, but hundreds of homes remained threatened in the mountainous area about 100 miles east of Los Angeles.In Montana, firefighters traveled by rail to the edge of a thick forest to build fuel breaks to slow or stop a wildfire creeping toward a major rail line and U.S. Highway 2 on Glacier National Park's southern boundary.Firefighters had been limited to attacking the blaze by air because the steep, dense terrain left few escape options for ground crews if the fire that has burned about a square mile suddenly shifted.___Melley reported from Los Angeles.
