Putin: Iran Ready to Enter Talks

Russian President Vladimir Putin says Iran is responding positively to an
international incentives offer to suspend sensitive nuclear work and enter
negotiations on its nuclear program. Putin spoke after meeting Iranian
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Thursday on the sidelines of a Central Asian summit
in China. Mr. Putin says Iran is ready to enter talks in the near future.
Mr. Putin says Iran has a right to nuclear energy but must address concerns
of the international community about the intentions of its program.

Mr. Ahmadinejad called for Central Asian nations to support his country
in the international dispute over its nuclear program. He said Iran is
facing "aggressive interference" by "domineering powers" in the West. The
developments come as the 35-nation board of the International Atomic Energy Agency is
discussing Iran's nuclear program.


*伊拉克安全顾问：伊拉克基地组织穷途末路

伊拉克国家安全顾问鲁巴伊说，上星期恐怖领导人扎卡维被炸死预示这伊拉克基
地恐怖主义组织灭亡的开端。鲁巴伊说，在扎卡维藏身处找到的文件为伊拉克安
全部队打击这个恐怖组织提供了有利条件。他说，这些文件内容包括恐怖分子领
导人和武器的窝藏地以及这个组织如何运作。

在伊拉克的基地恐怖主义组织誓言要进行更多的攻击。美国军方说，该组织新的
领导人阿布.穆哈耶可能是阿布.马斯里的别名，他是一位和扎卡维关系非常密切
的埃及人。

另外一方面，伊拉克警方星期四说，枪手打死10名前往巴古拜工作的劳工。在提
克里特，枪手袭击了一座清真寺，打死了四名逊尼派穆斯林。

Iraqi Security Advisor: Al-Qaida in Iraq Facing its End

Iraq's National Security Advisor Mowaffaq al-Rubaie says last week's
killing of terror leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi signals "the beginning of the end"
of al-Qaida in Iraq. Mowaffaq al-Rubaie says information found with Zarqawi
gives Iraqi security forces the edge over the terror group. He says the
documents show the locations of terrorist leaders, weapons and how the
group is run.

Al-Qaida in Iraq has vowed to carry out more attacks. The U.S. military
says it believes the group's new leader Abu Hamza al-Muhajer is probably
an alias for Abu Ayyub al-Masri, an Egyptian closely tied to Zarqawi.

In other developments Thursday, Iraqi police say gunmen killed 10 laborers
as they headed to work in Baquba. In Tikrit, gunmen attacked a mosque,
killing four Sunni Arabs.
