20 Christians kidnapped in Syria

A parish priest and a number of Christians have been kidnapped from a Syrian village near the border with Turkey.

The Latin Patriarchate, which oversees Latin Church Catholics in Israel and neighboring countries, said Father Hanna Jallouf had been kidnapped on the night of Oct. 5 in Knayeh, a small Christian village. It said his kidnappers were brigades linked to the Islamist Nusra Front.

There had been no contact with the priest, whose church is part of the Catholic church, or his captors and added that a number of Franciscan nuns in the village had taken refuge with local people.

 

SYRIAN TOWN ABOUT TO FALL TO JIHADISTS

The Islamic State group is about to capture the Syrian border town of Kobani, Turkey’s president said Tuesday, as outgunned Kurdish forces struggled to repel the extremists with limited aid from U.S.-led coalition airstrikes.

Islamic State fighters using tanks and heavy weapons looted from captured army bases in Iraq and Syria have been pounding Kurdish forces in the strategic town for days, and planted their black flag on the town’s outskirts after seizing several nearby villages in an offensive launched last month.

 

SPAIN QUARANTINES 3 MORE AFTER NURSE GETS EBOLA

According to TIME Senator Ted Cruz (R—Tex.) announced Monday that he will introduce a constitutional amendment barring the federal government and the courts from overturning state marriage laws.

The announcement follows the Supreme Court’s decision Monday to reject the appeals requests of five states seeking to outlaw same-sex marriages, permitting gay unions to go ahead in Indiana, Oklahoma, Utah, Virginia and Wisconsin.

 

 

BLUNDERS RENEW QUESTIONS ABOUT BIDEN’S DISCIPLINE

Vice President Joe Biden’s verbal blunders are causing more than just a few rough headlines and a momentary nuisance for the White House.

Twice in two days, Biden had to apologize to key U.S. allies in the fight against Islamic State militants after accusing the allies of arming and funding al-Qaida-linked groups in Syria.

Not only did his comments threaten to jeopardize President Barack Obama’s fragile coalition, they also put the White House on the defensive, forced to clean up for Biden without specifically rebutting what he said.

 

NATO has strategy to defend Turkey, says Defense Minister
The NATO alliance has drawn up a strategy to defend Turkey if it is attacked along its border with Syria, a Turkish official says.

Defense Minister Ismet Yilmaz, said the alliance did that at his government’s request as Islamic State militants, who have captured a large swath of Iraq and Syria, are trying to take the Syrian town of Kobane near the Turkish border.

“If there is an attack, NATO’s joint defense mechanisms will be activated,” Mr Yilmaz told reporters.
