Reuters families demand US troops be tried over shooting

The families of two Reuters news agency employees killed in a 2007 US helicopter attack in Baghdad on Thursday demanded justice, telling AFP the Americans responsible should stand trial.

Graphic video footage of the shooting, which left several other people dead and wounded two children, was published on the Internet by WikiLeaks, a website that discloses information obtained from whistleblowers.

"The truth came out and the whole world saw. The American pilot should be judged by international justice and we want compensation because the act left orphans," said Safa Chmagh, whose brother Saeed Chmagh, a Reuters driver, died.

Iran to Lodge Formal Complaint to UN Over Obama’s Nuke Threat

The Iranian Foreign Ministry announced today that it intends to file a formal complaint with the United Nations following last week’s Obama Administration revelation of a new nuclear policy.

The threat is just one of many US threats to attack Iran over the past several years, but one of the few that has included an explicit threat to attack the nation with nuclear weapons, even though Gates admitted that Iran did not have any nuclear weapons of its own.

Shooting by U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan fuels Karzai's anger

KABUL -- Twelve days before President Hamid Karzai denounced the behavior of Western countries in Afghanistan, he met a 4-year-old boy at the Tarin Kowt civilian hospital in the south.

The boy had lost his legs in a February airstrike by U.S. Special Operations forces helicopters that killed more than 20 civilians. Karzai scooped him up from his mattress and walked out to the hospital courtyard, according to three witnesses. "Who injured you?" the president asked as helicopters passed overhead. The boy, crying alongside his relatives, pointed at the sky.
