GUANTANAMO BAY, Cuba -- A jury of six U.S. military officers convicted Osama bin Laden's former driver of supporting terrorism Wednesday, but cleared him of conspiracy charges in the first war crimes trial at Guantanamo Bay. NOUAKCHOTT, Mauritania -- Army commanders ousted Mauritania's elected president after an increasingly bitter political fight over his ties to allies of a reviled former dictator and his overtures to Islamic radicals. Troubles began early Wednesday when President Sidi Ould Cheikh Abdallahi fired the country's top four generals, reportedly for supporting legislators who had accused him of corruption and disagreed with his reaching out to Islamic militants.

Israel overhauled Turkish war planes and tanks. Turkey bought arms and sophisticated military technologies from Israel and allowed the Israeli air force to train in Turkish air space. Tens of thousands of Israeli tourists flooded the Turkish beaches and resorts. While Hamas-Gaza leadership was holed in its bunkers -- Hamas-Damascus accompanied Syrian President Assad to Doha and conducted preliminary discussions with [Mahmoud Ahmadinejad] about the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip. It was obvious that Hamas leader Khaled Mash'al was out of touch with the realities in the Gaza Strip. Indeed, in his first appearance afte...
