Militants' images, string of blasts rock Iraq Posted: 15 Jun 2014 12:06 PM PDT As the Iraqi government bolstered Baghdad's defenses Sunday, the Islamic militant group that captured two major cities last week posted graphic photos that appeared to show its fighters massacring dozens of captured Iraqi soldiers.

Romney blasts Hillary Clinton as 'clueless' Posted: 15 Jun 2014 09:16 AM PDT The 2012 Republican presidential nominee had some harsh words on Sunday for the person many believe will be the Democratic nominee in 2016: Hillary Clinton.

The Clinton Costco circus Posted: 15 Jun 2014 08:15 AM PDT The throngs of people were officially there for Clinton to sign their discount copies of "Hard Choices," the former Secretary of State's book about her time in the Obama administration. In reality, Clinton herself was the least visible part of the whole, circus-like event. The average Costco patron couldn't even sneak a glimpse of her, as her book signing took place behind a giant fortress of water bottles and paper towel rolls, built by Costco employees using forklifts in the wee hours of Saturday morning. All that traveled over that bulk-product brick wall was the occasional laugh — was it Clinton's? Or someone else's? It was hard to know for sure — and the sound of clicking press cameras. Clinton fans weren't allowed to bring theirs past the security checkpoint.

Radio legend Casey Kasem dies at 82 Posted: 15 Jun 2014 08:18 AM PDT Casey Kasem, the internationally famous radio broadcaster with the cheerful manner and gentle voice who became the king of the top 40 countdown with a syndicated show that ran for decades, died Sunday. He was 82.

China adding school to outpost in disputed waters Posted: 15 Jun 2014 05:39 AM PDT BEIJING (AP) — China has begun building a school on a remote island in the South China Sea to serve the children of military personnel and others, expanding the rugged outpost it created two years ago to strengthen its claims to disputed waters and islands.

US orders aircraft carrier to Gulf, Iran offers help Posted: 14 Jun 2014 08:15 PM PDT The United States ordered an aircraft carrier into the Gulf Saturday over the Iraq crisis, where Sunni Arab jihadists have seized a swathe of the country, as Shiite Iran said it would consider helping foe Washington should it take action. The order came as Iraqi commanders said that soldiers had recaptured two towns north of Baghdad, and thousands of volunteers answered a call to arms from top Shiite cleric Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani. US President Barack Obama said he was "looking at all the options" to halt the offensive that has brought Sunni Arab militants within 50 miles (80 kilometres) of Baghdad's city limits, but ruled out any return of US combat troops. "We will not be sending US troops back into combat in Iraq, but I have asked my national security team to prepare a range of other options that could help support Iraqi security forces," he said.

Philly rail service resumes after Obama intervenes Posted: 15 Jun 2014 05:41 AM PDT PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Commuter rail service in the Philadelphia area was restored early Sunday, just hours after workers returned to their jobs following a brief strike that was ended when President Barack Obama intervened.

Manning says U.S. public lied to about Iraq from the start Posted: 14 Jun 2014 08:03 PM PDT The detained US soldier convicted of leaking a trove of secret documents to WikiLeaks made a rare foray into public life Saturday to warn Americans they were being lied to about Iraq once more. Chelsea Manning is serving a 35-year prison sentence on espionage charges and other offenses for passing along 700,000 secret documents, including diplomatic cables and military intelligence files, to anti-secrecy website WikiLeaks in the largest-scale leak in US history. However, the concerns that motivated me have not been resolved," the soldier formerly known as Bradley Manning wrote in a New York Times editorial. "As Iraq erupts in civil war and America again contemplates intervention, that unfinished business should give new urgency to the question of how the United States military controlled the media coverage of its long involvement there and in Afghanistan."

Argentine soccer fans get rowdy in Rio Posted: 14 Jun 2014 07:25 PM PDT Argentina fans are making themselves at home all over Rio de Janeiro.
