2 Said Nabbed
in 3 Md. Children's Deaths
By FOSTER KLUG,
Associated Press Writer
BALTIMORE - Two people were arrested in
the deaths of three children found dead
in a Baltimore apartment, a source said
Friday.
A boy, his
sister and their male cousin were found
by one of their mothers when she returned
to the apartment late Thursday afternoon.
One child was beheaded, the other two
partially beheaded.
The source
who reported the arrests spoke on
condition of anonymity.
Further
details were not immediately available.
Police planned to hold a news conference
to announce what they described as a
"major development" in the
case.
"I've
been around for 35 years and I've seen,
unfortunately, my share of murders, but
I've never seen something as bad as
this," Deputy Police Commissioner
Kenneth Blackwell said earlier.
Homicide
detectives had stopped an unidentified
"person of interest" in
connection with the crime late Thursday.
The
children had returned home from school
about 3:30 p.m., Blackwell said. A weapon
was found outside the apartment.
The woman
who found the children, who speaks
Spanish and little English, notified a
neighbor when she made the discovery two
hours later. Police recorded a 911 call
they said was probably made by a neighbor
translating for the mother.
"There's
blood all over my apartment," a
woman said in the 911 call. "They've
killed my family!"
The first
officer on the scene "couldn't
handle it" and had to give the call
to another officer, Blackwell said.
"Walking in on a scene, seeing
children of that tender age in that
condition, certainly breaks your
heart."
Parents
and teachers at the children's school,
Cross Country Elementary, hugged each
other Friday morning and cried. Officials
said grief counselors would be on hand to
help the 700 students.
The mother
gave police information about where to
find the man who was questioned,
Blackwell said. Officers stopped him a
few blocks from the crime scene.
Blackwell
said the man's relationship to the
children, if any, was not known but he
was an acquaintance of the mother.
Al
Johnson, who lives in the apartment
complex, said she heard the mother
screaming.
"They
were very nice, cordial kids,"
Johnson said. "It's such a shock to
everyone. "It's a very quiet,
peaceful community."
The art
deco apartment complex is on the edge of
a neighborhood of well-tended homes. It
is largely Orthodox Jewish, with a mix of
white, black and Hispanic residents.
Matt
Teichman, 17, a student at Talmudical
Academy, was returning home from prayers
when he heard the sirens and saw police.
"We
walk here late at night and we usually
feel safe," he said. "Now, I
don't know what to feel. I can't really
believe it."

- Rumsfeld bans
camera phones in Iraq: report
The
German-American Bund has taken
control in the USA since the end of
WW11 - the butcher Rumsfeld, who like
a great many in the Bush
"regime", is also a son of
the so-called master-race. The
present US Military brutality and
indiscriminate bombings in Iraq have
clear similarities with the German SS
killings in Eastern Europe during
WW11.
Now
Herr Rumsfeld is determined that no
more photos of "mass
graves" is leaked to the public!
LONDON (AFP) - Cellphones fitted with
digital cameras have been banned in
US army installations in Iraq (news - web sites) on orders
from Defense Secretary Donald
Rumsfeld, a business newspaper
reported.
Quoting a
Pentagon (news - web sites) source, The
Business newspaper said the US
Defense Department believes that some
of the damning photos of US soldiers
abusing Iraqis at Abu Ghraib prison
near Baghdad were taken with camera
phones.
"Digital
cameras, camcorders and cellphones
with cameras have been prohibited in
military compounds in Iraq," it
said, adding that a "total ban
throughout the US military" is
in the works.
Disturbing
new photos of Iraqi prisoner abuse,
which the US government had
reportedly tried to keep hidden, were
published Friday in the Washington
Post newspaper.
The
photos emerged along with details of
testimony from inmates at Abu Ghraib
who said they were sexually molested
by female soldiers, beaten, sodomized
and forced to eat food from toilets.

Bremer: U.S. Will
Leave Iraq if Requested
BAGHDAD, Iraq - The U.S. governor of Iraq (news - web sites) told regional
officials Friday that the United States would
leave Iraq if requested to do so by the new
Iraqi government — although he thinks
such a move is unlikely.
Comment:
(What a joke!
Rumsfeld's Iraqi patsies in
the socalled to be government - are to decide
if the US will leave Iraq or not! These set
up pawns of the US - unellected and
representing a miniscule number of Iraqis -
if that - will decide if the US invaders will
stay in Iraq or not!
Nobody believes this crap
now!
I admire Bergs father
because he sees the lies of the rtwing Bush
clique who dont fgive a damn about Jews nor
Arabs!
The fascist
Born Again US clique are satanist/nazis in
nature!)
The issues being raised by Michael Berg
point to the fact, that at best, the US
authorities created the conditions in which
his son could be kidnapped by extremists and
killed.
The more
disturbing possibility that arises from all
the evidence that is known is that
Berg’s disappearance and subsequent
killing was the work of US agencies or pro-US
Iraqi factions. One month after he
disappeared, Berg was murdered at the most
opportune moment for the US government.
Anyone
who believes it is unthinkable or outrageous
to suggest that the American government would
sanction having one of its citizens murdered
to shore up its fortunes is underestimating
the political situation.
The Bush
administration and elements of the American
military hierarchy, media and corporate
establishment are indictable war criminals.
They ordered, directed, propagated or have
profited from a criminal war, in flagrant
violation of international law. The year
since the US-led invasion of Iraq has been
marked by further war crimes and atrocities.
For significant sections of the American
ruling class, everything depends upon
preventing opposition to the occupation of
Iraq within the American and international
working class from developing into a
conscious movement for political and social
change. To them, the life of 26-year-old Nick
Berg would have meant nothing.

Ohio Priest Pleads Innocent
to Nun's Slaying
CHICAGO (Reuters) - A Roman Catholic priest in Ohio
pleaded not guilty on Friday to murdering an
elderly nun 24 years ago in what police
investigators have said may have been a
ritualistic slaying.
The Rev.
Gerald Robinson, 66, stood quietly as his
attorney entered a not guilty plea to the
charge of aggravated murder in Lucas County
Common Pleas Court in Toledo, Ohio, said Alan
Konop, his lawyer.
Robinson is
charged in the murder of Sister Margaret Ann
Pahl, 71, who was killed during Easter
weekend 1980 in the chapel of a hospital
where she and Robinson worked.
Sister
Margaret was strangled, then covered with an
altar cloth and stabbed several times along
the neck and torso, the Toledo Blade reported
citing unnamed sources.
Few details of
the investigation that led to Robinson's
arrest last month have been released.
The Blade has
reported that police re-opened the case after
a woman now in her 40s told a church panel
investigating sexual abuse by priests that
Robinson had been involved in satanic
rituals.
Robinson,
wearing his priest's collar, spoke only once
during the five-minute hearing, to waive his
right to attend a May 24 pretrial hearing,
Konop said. Robinson was released Monday on
$200,000 bond.
Church
officials in Toledo stripped Robinson of his
public clerical duties after his arrest,
barring him from celebrating Holy Communion
or any other sacrament.
Robinson's
brother and sister-in-law attended the
hearing, Konop said.
If convicted,
Robinson could be sentenced to life in
prison. He is not eligible for the death
penalty because it was not in effect in Ohio
at the time of the killing. ((Reporting by

Claim: CIA behind
Iraqi prisoner abuse

Article
A US army reserve general, whose soldiers
were photographed abusing Iraqi prisoners,
has said the prison cellblock involved was
under the tight control of military
intelligence, which may have encouraged the
abuse.
Brigadier-General Janis
Karpinski told The New York Times in a
telephone interview that the special
high-security cellblock at the Abu Ghraib
prison outside Baghdad had been under the
direct control of army intelligence officers,
not the reservists under her command.
Her comments follow a
report in The New Yorker magazine, which
indicated that abuse of Iraqi prisoners at
Abu Ghraib may have been ordered by US
military intelligence to extract information
from the captives.
Seymour Hersh, investigative reporter for The
New Yorker, said that Staff Sergeant Ivan
Frederick, one of six US military policemen
accused of humiliating Iraqi prisoners, wrote
home in January that he had "questioned
some of the things" he saw inside the
prison, but that "the answer I got was:
'This is how military intelligence wants it
done'."
Karpinski was formally
admonished in January and "quietly
suspended" from commanding the
800th Military Police Brigade while under
investigation.
Shifting blame
The Times quotes Karpinski
as saying she believed military commanders
were trying to shift the blame exclusively to
her and other reservists and away from
intelligence officers still at work in Iraq.
Karpinski
says intelligence
officers are still at work in Iraq
"We're
disposable," she is quoted as saying.
"Why would they want the active-duty
people to take the blame? They want to put
this on the MPs and hope that this thing goes
away. Well, it's not going to go away."
Karpinski said the special
cellblock, known as 1A, was one of about two
dozen cellblocks in the large prison complex
and was essentially off limits to soldiers
who were not part of the interrogations,
including virtually all of the military
police under her command, the paper said.
Round the clock
She said she was not defending the actions of
the reservists who took part in the
brutality, who were part of her command.
But she added she was also alarmed that
little attention has been paid to the army
military intelligence unit that controlled
Cellblock 1A, where her soldiers guarded the
Iraqi detainees between interrogations, The
Times said.
She said military intelligence officers were
in and out of the cellblock "24 hours a
day," often to escort prisoners to and
from an interrogation centre away from the
prison cells.
"They were in there at
two in the morning, they were there at four
in the afternoon," General Karpinski is
quoted as saying. "This was no
nine-to-five job."
Karpinski also said that
CIA employees often participated in the
interrogations at the prison complex,
according to the report.
