Lost Russians

Lost Russians in 'miracle' rescue.

The two Russian men who were lost in the mountainous area of western China are still alive. The Russians have been sleeping in a cave. It went wrong when the Russians disappeared during a canoe trip. The two Russians were among six other Russians how were found drowned earlier. It is a miracle that one of them survived, after they were sleeping for 20 days in a cave and covered with tree branches. The other one was found about 10 hours away by the Russian search team. The Russians were exhausted and had lost much weight.

My opinion
I think that the Russians are very lucky to be alive; it is amazing that they survived for 20 days without any help or food. I think that people have to be of the danger, when they make such Cano trips abroad. Countries like China are well-known by their bad rescue teams. If people are planning to make a trip in countries like China, they should be aware of the danger. Internet and travel agency could help people to inform them of the danger abroad. Luckily there are countries, for instance The Netherlands, were the rescue team is well organized.

Iran's nuclear programme

Iran's nuclear programme

Iran issues Israel attack warning Israel makes a silly mistake if they launch an air attack on Iranian territory, according to Iran. Iran says that Israel is not able to launch an air attack on its territory; Iran says that they have plans to bomb Israel if it launches an air attack on Iranian soil. The foreign ministry from Israel said that the comments were very alarming and that the international communities should take a stance on Iran. The US finds Iran’s remarks unhelpful and not constructive. Iran denies that they try to make nuclear weapons, but they only want nuclear power for civilian purpose. French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner warned that the world must be prepared for a potential war against Iran. On the other hand, the UN is considering a possible third round of sanctions against Iran. Some analyst thinks that Israel could launch an air attack on Iran, because they had done it before.

My opinion
I think that Iran has the right to enrich civilian nuclear power. There is no evidence that Iran tries to make a nuclear bomb or something like it. All UN countries signed the Nuclear-Non-Proliferation treaty, which means that a country has the right to produce nuclear civilian power.
The treaty says also that the Nuclear power countries have to disarm their nuclear power. Until now, the nuclear countries are not doing this. Instead of disarming themselves they are making progress to make better nuclear weapons. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/7003143.stm

Africa summit ( The Times * monday 10 sep 2007*)

Africa summit

Like the failed summit of 2003, the summit of this year is likely to be cancelled. This because the African leaders like have planned to ban Robert Mugabe from the summit. They think that they have to stop inviting Mugabe. If the summit valid, the English Prime Minister Gordon Brown could found him self blamed for setting back the Europe relationship with Africa. Also the British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said last month he would not attend the summit if Mr Mugabe attended. China is also trying to get a better relationship with the continent Africa, and that could be a treat for Europe.

My opinion
The African summit is a very good option to strength the relationship between Europe and Africa. Leaders like Mugabe should not attend the meeting, because he is a dictator. I think that more presidents of Europe should say the same thing about Mugabe like Gordan Brown said. It’s absolutely wrong to do nothing about the dictatorship of Mugabe, and to invite him to the meeting. I think that Europe is also afraid of the growing relationship between China and Africa, and that will be no good for Europe.

Oprah's 3 milion party for Obama

Ms Winfrey has organise a big party at her 50$ million mansion. This al for a special guest "Mr Obama", the president candidate. Oprah Winfrey has hosted 3 milion fundraiser for her prince. About 1500 guest were allowed to the party, but surprisingly not of the guest could enter the VIP room. they were satisfied with a handshake with the iconic black American. Also has Oprah warn all guest to behaviour on their best at the party.

my opinion

There has never been a black president in the US. So this can be an option to get the black community more in the political environment. Ms Winfrey is one of the supporters of Obama, who can use some help of Ms Winfrey. Obama does not have the amount of money like the others candidates have. He needs the help of influential people like Ms Winfrey to win the race of the other candidates.
