The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine condemned the occupation army’s cold-blooded murder of three Palestinians in Yatta, al-Khalil under a flimsy pretext and demanded that Palestinian Authority officials stop their concessions and continuation of the so-called negotiations that serve to cover up this crime.

Moussa Mohammad Moussa Makhamra, Mahmoud Khalid al-Najjar, and Mohammad Fouad Jamil Nairoukh were killed by occupation forces on November 26. The ongoing crimes of the occupation continue, paid for in Palestinian blood, while the Authority attempts to silence the voices and infringe the rights of freedom of expression of the Palestinian people, said the Front. This war crime is an escalation in the ongoing war crimes against the land, rights, and people of Palestine that are taking place without restraint. The Front demanded that the United Nations and international bodies hold the occupation accountable for their crimes.

The Front said that the path forward is that of unity and resistance to the occupation.

US: Patience With Sri Lanka Could 'Wear Thin'

US: Patience With Sri Lanka Could 'Wear Thin'

International patience could wear thin with Sri Lanka unless it takes action to address allegations of atrocities during the island nation's civil war, the top U.S. diplomat for South Asia said Tuesday.

Assistant Secretary of State Nisha Biswal stopped short of endorsing a deadline set last month by British Prime Minister David Cameron, who said he would call for a U.N.-backed inquiry into allegations of war crimes unless there was progress on postwar reconciliation by March.

A U.N. report has suggested Sri Lanka's military may have killed up to 40,000 civilians in the final months of the war in 2009 as it crushed ethnic Tamil rebels, who are also accused of atrocities.

Biswal urged Sri Lanka to take concrete steps on its own, particularly on issues of accountability.

"We would like to see Sri Lanka address these issues through its own processes, and we hope that can in fact be the case," Biswal told reporters, adding that recommendations of a Sri Lankan-government appointed reconciliation commission pointed the way forward.

She said without real progress the patience of the international community "will start to wear thin."

The government of President Mahinda Rajapaksa has so far ignored calls for a thorough local inquiry into war abuses and says it will not allow any international probe. He denies allegations of abuses by the army.

Since the Tamil Tigers' 27-year battle for an ethnic homeland ended, Rajapaksa's grip on power has tightened. Recent reports of media harassment and rights abuses have also raised alarms, although a convincing victory for the main ethnic Tamil party in provincial elections in northern Sri Lanka in September were seen as a small step toward devolution of power.

Biswal, portfolio covers South and Central Asia, also voiced concern Friday about political violence in Bangladesh, where street clashes between rival factions have killed about 40 people and wounded hundreds in the past month.

The opposition is resisting government plans to hold a general election on Jan. 5 unless Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina allows a neutral caretaker administration to oversee the polls.

Biswal, who recently visited Bangladesh, called for the major political parties to come together and work out a compromise "that will allow for elections to take place that the people of Bangladesh have confidence in and feel are credible."

She said failure to achieve a peaceful political transition poses the greatest obstacle to Bangladesh continuing its progress of the past decade in areas such as reducing child and maternal mortality and improving food security.

Analysts fear the political chaos could exacerbate the economic woes of the country of 160 million people and lead to radicalization in a strategic pocket of South Asia.

David Cameron calls for China investment in UK’s HS2

David Cameron calls for China investment in UK’s HS2

David Cameron has opened the door to Chinese investment in the High Speed 2 rail line from London to the north.

Premier Li said: “The two sides have agreed to push for a breakthrough and progress in co-operation in the areas of nuclear power and high speed railway.” He added that Mr Cameron’s trade trip, the largest business delegation the UK has led to the country, would “push the UK-China relationship into a new stage”.
“Just like the high-speed trains,” he said, “we need to grow this relationship at a higher speed.”
It builds on the message from the prime minister, who last week told an audience at the V&A Museum: “I’m very interested in what’s happening in terms of high-speed rail in China . . . In terms of HS2, I very much welcome Chinese investment into British infrastructure.”

Mr Cameron will spend his first day of a three-day trip to China in meetings with the three most senior members of the Chinese government: Mr Li, Zhang Dejiang, the chairman of the standing committee of China’s National People Congress, the largely ceremonial parliament, and Xi Jinping, the president.
The visit is his first to China since November 2010, and the first since the current regime took over in November 2012. British ministers had until recently been refused meetings with their Chinese counterparts after the prime minister met the Dalai Lama in London in May 2012.

Mr Cameron has made trade the focus of his trip, despite concerns over human rights violations in China. He said the British government wanted to support “the judicial protection of human rights”, but made it clear that discussions between the two countries over the issue would be held separately next year.

The form of any Chinese investment in HS2 is as yet unclear, but British officials stressed there would be no direct investment in the construction phase of the line, which is due to be funded by the taxpayer. This leaves open the possibility of the Chinese bidding for the concession to run HS2 or investing in peripheral schemes around the route such as developments around stations when the route opens in the 2030s.
The move could prove controversial, deepening Chinese ownership of British infrastructure projects. The UK’s first nuclear power station to be built in a generation was agreed to last month, with the backing of EDF, the French energy company, and various Chinese investors.

Mr Cameron insisted that his government should not be embarrassed about its increasing reliance on Chinese capital. Speaking to journalists, the prime minister said: “I’m not embarrassed that China is investing in British nuclear power, or has shares in Heathrow airport, or Thames Water, or Manchester airport. I think it’s a positive sign of economic strength that we are open and welcome to Chinese investment. That gives, if you like, the British government more firepower to use the capital investment we have for more roads and railways and other things.”

The prime minister also repeated his call for an EU-China trade deal, which he said would boost European businesses and encourage China to liberalise its economy. Mr Cameron has positioned Britain as the greatest champion of such a deal, to the delight of his Chinese hosts, despite European concern that it could lead to domestic manufacturers being undermined by cheap Chinese imports.
