Donald Trump Widens Lead Over US Republican Presidential Field: Poll
Republican voters show no signs they are growing weary of the brash real estate mogul, who has dominated political headlines and the 17-strong Republican presidential field with his tough talk about immigration and insults directed at his political rivals. The candidates are vying to be nominated to represent their party in the November 2016 general election. » | Reuters | Saturday, August 22, 2015
Iran Unveils New Missile, Says Seeks Peace through Strength
The defense ministry's unveiling of the solid-fuel missile, named Fateh 313, came little more than a month after Iran and world powers reached a deal that requires Tehran to abide by new limits on its nuclear program in return for Western governments easing economic sanctions.
According to that deal, any transfer to Iran of ballistic missile technology during the next eight years will be subject to the approval of the United Nations Security Council, and the United States has promised to veto any such requests. An arms embargo on conventional weapons also stays, preventing their import and export for five years.
But Iran has said it will not follow parts of the nuclear deal that restricts its military capabilities, a stance reaffirmed by President Hassan Rouhani on Saturday. » | Reporting by Bozorgmehr Sharafedin; Editing by Gareth Jones | Dubai | Saturday, August 22, 2015

Dschihadisten-Offensive: IS-Terroristen in Libyen auf dem Vormarsch
Mehr als zehn Monate hat der Uno-Sondergesandte Bernardino León zwischen den zwei zerstrittenen Fraktionen in Libyen vermittelt, ein Friedensvertrag soll bald unterzeichnet werden. Doch nun eskaliert die Lage, sodass Italiens Außenminister Paolo Gentiloni vor einem "neuen Somalia" warnt.
Denn der "Islamische Staat" (IS) ist auf dem Vormarsch. Dessen Kämpfer töteten innerhalb einer Woche bis zu 200 Salafisten und Bewohner der Stadt Sirt, von denen ein Dutzend geköpft oder gekreuzigt zur Schau gestellt wurden. Der IS hat nun die volle Kontrolle über die nordlibysche Hafenstadt, damit ist auch der Weg frei zu dem östlich gelegenen "Ölhalbmond". » | Von Mirco Keilberth | Freitag, 21. August 2015
Frenzied Armed Riots in Migrant Camp after Man Tears Up Koran and Throws Pages in TOILET
At least 17 people were injured when 20 Syrian refugees chased down an Afghan man after he ruined and discarded the Islamic holy book.
But the situation turned nasty when the crowd turned their anger to the camp's security guards as they protected the alleged offender.
More than 50 men armed themselves with steel rods and began hurling rocks at the guards and police.
The migrants smashed car windows, ransacked buildings and demolished the walls, which divide the shelter in Suhl, Thuringia, in a rampage which lasted several hours. » | Rebecca Perring | Friday, August 21, 2015
Cameron's 'Knee-jerk' Policies Will Fail to Root Out Hate Preachers, Blasts Muslim Leader
Speaking ahead of the country’s biggest annual gathering of Muslims this weekend, Naseer Dean, the London head of the influential Ahmadiyya Muslim group, launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister David Cameron and Home Secretary Theresa May.
He argued that Tory ministers had allowed for the radicalisation of 4,000 young British Muslims by failing to grasp the scale of the problem of religious extremism.
He accused the media regulator Ofcom of being “reactive” rather than proactive and attacked the Home Office for cutting off funding to vital services aimed at monitoring extremist preachers.
And he called on the Government to “educate itself” about Islam so that "they have a better handle of what is going on in the mosques".
Shortly after the General Election, the Prime Minister announced plans for tough new rules to tackle extremism, claiming Britain had become a “passively tolerant” society.
They included “closure orders” brought in to shut buildings used by extremist preachers and a ban on radical clerics mixing with vulnerable young Muslims.
But, in an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk, Mr Dean rubbished the proposals as “a knee-jerk reaction”.
“They are expecting the local authority and everybody to be monitors and to snoop, which is not the way to go,” he said.
“They need to find out what is going on in the mosques and a lot of the clerics that are coming to the United Kingdom are being allowed to come here.” » | Tom Batchelor | Friday, August 21, 2015

North Korea - South Korea: Kim Jong-un Promises 'Indiscriminate Strikes' and Places Country on 'War Footing' after Artillery Shots Fired
Kim Jong-un has put North Korea on a war footing and threatened "indiscriminate strikes" against the South if it doesn't agree to halt propaganda broadcasts by Saturday evening at 5pm.
Mr Kim claimed North Korea’s soldiers were in a “quasi-state of war” and ordered them to prepare for battle, according to state news outlet KCNA.
The country has threatened action unless South Korea stops its anti-Pyongyang broadcasts over the heavily fortified North-South border by 5pm (local time) on Saturday.
South Korea's defence ministry has warned that the nation will "strongly retaliate against any kind of North Korean attacks". » | Rose Troup Buchanan | Friday, August 21, 2015
