Kots Lawyer: Bales broke down discussing rampage
CBS News DAMASCUS - There was widespread relief in the Syrian cap adidas og ital Wednesday morning that American airstrikes have been averted -- at least for the time being. CBS News air force 1 correspondent Elizabeth Palmer reports that across the Syrian media, both in newspapers and television, credit for that reprieve is going to Russia. President Obama on Tuesday night told the American public that the threat of a military strike against Syria should stay on the table, but that the U.S. and its allies would take more time to pursue a diplomatic resolution with Assad.Mr. Obama s remarks came after it was announced that Secretary of State John Kerry was to meet Thursday in Geneva with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov to try and hammer out the basic principles of a deal that would see Syria hand over its chemical weapons stockpiles to international control for destruction.Mr. Obama said that, given Syria s agreement in principle to such a de adidas original campus al, he had asked the leaders of Congress to postpone their vote on the use of force.Already there s pressure building for some sort of timetable to be formalized in the United Nations for Syria to begin to make real gestures for turning over its chemical weapons. But even if a diplomatic agreement were to be reached, Palmer says it s hard to know how it would actually work.Syria is, after all, in the middle of a widening civil war. It has dozens of chemical weapons sites, some of them mobile.

A senior Western diplomat speaking to CBS News strengthened this morning s report that Osama bin Laden s son Saad has died. Intelligence information suggests Saad bin Laden has not been in communication with anyone for a few months now. That strengthens speculation over his death, a NATO-country ambassador said to CBS News Farhan Bokhari in Islamabad, Pakistan, Thursday night.Speaking to CBS News on condition of anonymity, the ambassador said, So far, there is no indication that he was anywhere near his father if and when killed. Osama bin Laden is apparently still alive. This was the first time that a senior western diplomat in the Pakistani capital independently confirmed the report since stanley cup NPR quoted an unnamed counterterrorism official reporti stanley becher ng the younger bin Laden s death.Earlier on Thursday, a Pakistani government official who spoke on condition of anonymity said the cl stanley mugs aim of Saad bin Laden s death could not be ascertained unless his body was found. I am skeptical because in the past too, we have heard of high profile terrorists including Osama bin Laden being dead but then they have resurfaced, he told CBS News. ponent--type-recirculation .item:nth-child 5 display: none; inline-recirc-item--id-d1232826-8c88-11e2-b06b-024c619f5c3d, right-rail-recirc-item--id-d1232826-8c88-11e2-b06b-024c619f5c3d display: none; inline-recirc-item--id-d1232826-8c88-11e2-

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina --Argentina s Navy said Friday it has lost contact with a submarine carrying 44 crew members off the country s southern coast and has mounted an extensive search.The Navy said that ships and aircraft were searching near the last known location of the ARA San Juan, a German-built diesel-electric vessel, which had not been heard from since Wednesday.The Navy said it was scanning all possible radio transmission frequencies for a sign of the San Juan.Navy spokesman Enrique Balbi told The Associated Press that it is possible that the submarine had an electrical issue and said it could not yet be termed lost. The last position registered was two days ago.

ISTANBUL -- Saudi prosecutors say the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi was planned, reflecting yet another change in the shifting Saudi Arabian account of what happened to the writer who was killed by Saudi officials in their Istanbul consulate. Saudi Attorney General Saud al-Mojeb sa adidas samba id investigators had concluded that Khashoggi s killing was a premeditated crime after reviewing evidence presented by Turkish officials as part of a joint investigation, according to a statement on the state-run Saudi Press Agency.Saudi Arabia s state-run al-Ikhbariyah TV quoted the country s public prosecutor as saying the suspects in the case carried out their deed with premeditation.

The move to send Portuguese-speaking migrants to Mexico represents the latest expansion of the Migrant Protection Protocols MPP program, a policy being challenged in court that has drawn scathing criticism from advocates but which the Trump administration credits for a sharp drop in apprehensions of migrants along the U.S.-Mexico border in the past seven months.
