Both Americans were traded for high-value Russian convicts, including drug dealer Konstantin Yaroshenko and arms dealer Viktor Bout, also known as the Merchant of Death. From Day One, I was being told that there would be a trade, a political solution to this situation. But as it dragged on, it did play with my mind, Whelan said Thursday.

GUANTANAMO BAY NAVAL BASE, Cuba A defense lawyer who gained rare access to an ultra-secret section of the Guantanamo Bay prison said Sunday that the camp does not meet international standards under the Geneva Conventions, an allegation denied by the chief prosecutor for the U.S. military s war crimes tribunal.James Connell, a lawyer for one of the five Guantanamo prisoners charged in the Sept. 11 terror attack, plans to file a motion with the judge presiding over the tribunal challenging the conditions in the section known as Camp 7.Connell won approval from the judge to spend 12 hours with two experts inside Camp 7, which holds men deemed high-value detainees by the U.S. military and is so shrouded in secrecy that its location on the U.S. base in Cuba is classified.

The blasts were the worst violence to hit Iraq since the vote.Electoral officials announced results as scheduled despite fears the expected razor-thin margin could spark violence. Ayad Allawi claimed victory for his secular, anti-Iranian coalition as final parliamentary returns Friday showed him edging out the bloc of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, who angrily vowed to fight the results. Allawi won 91 seats to al-Maliki s 89. There are 325 seats in Iraq s parliament.

But they do not automatically mean that he will become prime minister, and the narrow margin sets the stage for months of political wrangling.Because neither man came close to a majority, the victor will need to cobble together a coalition among the various factions representing Iraq s broad range of religious and ethnic groups.Al-Maliki tried to distance himself from his sectarian roots and portray himself as a nationalist who helped return stability to
