Russia accused the United States on Wednesday of encouraging Georgia to seek revenge against Moscow for a 2008 war, a day after U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton promised new U.S. military support for Tbilisi.

In a strongly worded statement, Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich said the United States' support of Georgia's bid to join NATO, as well as "massive supplies of arms from abroad" encouraged Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili's "criminal adventures" that led to the five-day war.

 

Russia Seeks Iranian Aid in Ushering Out Syria’s Assad

 

Christian News

 

Russia is seeking to enlist Iran in efforts to engineer a political transition in Syria, a move that drew a hostile U.S. reaction even as the Obama administration seeks more pressure on Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

The possibility of recruiting Iran, one of Assad’s main backers, to assist in efforts to end the violence and ease him out of power was floated as Kofi Annan, the architect of a failed United Nations April truce, prepared to address the UN today about ways to revive his moribund peace plan or pursue next steps.

The entry of Syria’s biggest backer, Shiite Muslim Iran, to a struggle that now pits a Sunni-led uprising against Assad’s Alawite minority would alienate the U.S. and Sunni Arab powers that are calling for more sweeping economic sanctions.

 

Syria accused of new massacre as U.N. meets

 

Christian News

 

Syrian troops and militiamen loyal to President Bashar al-Assad stood accused by opponents on Thursday of a new massacre of scores of villagers hours before a divided U.N. Security Council convenes to review the crisis.

If confirmed, the killings of at least 78 people at Mazraat al-Qabeer, near Hama, will pile on pressure for world powers to act, but there is little sign they can overcome a paralysis born of sharp divisions between Western and Arab states on the one hand and Assad's defenders in Russia, China and Iran.

"The men who have done the most for God in this world have been early on their knees. He who fritters away the early morning, its opportunity and freshness, in other pursuits than seeking God will make poor headway seeking Him the rest of the day. If God is not first in our thoughts and efforts in the morning, He will be in the last place the remainder of the day." - E. M. Bounds
