A Kurdish rebel fighter runs to avoid government forces' snipers in the
northern Syrian city of Aleppo on April 14, 2013. Jihadist groups linked
to Al-Qaeda have taken hostage around 200 Kurdish civilians after violent
clashes with Kurdish fighters in two villages of eastern Syria, a monitoring
group said.AFP/FileBEIRUT (AFP) Jihadist groups linked to Al-Qaeda have
taken hostage around 200 Kurdish civilians after violent clashes with Kurdish
fighters in two villages of eastern Syria, a monitoring group said."Fighters
of Al-Nusra Front and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant
have seized control of Tall Aren village in Aleppo province and are
laying siege to another village nearby, Tall Hassel. They have taken hostage
around 200 civilians from the inhabitants of the two villages," said the
Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
"intentional
or bad-faith violations" were found. The document said only that the missteps
resulted in the "automated tools operating in a manner that was not
completely consistent with the specific terms of the court's order." Additional
safeguards were subsequently ordered by the surveillance court.Intelligence
officials stressed at a Senate committee hearing on Wednesday that the program
still does not let them look at content unless there is a
reasonable suspicion that the material might be related to terror groups.Some
lawmakers have come down hard on the NSA over these programs, pushing
to force the agency to release more information and potentially rein in
the program itself.One of the documents, though, adamantly defended the
rationale for collecting massive quantities of "metadata" on phone calls
-- like the date, time and duration of calls."The more metadata NSA
has access to, the more likely it is that NSA can identify
or discover the network of contacts linked to targeted numbers or addresses,"
the document says.Declassified order on phone data collection

<p style="font-size:xx-small;"> The Houses chief investigative committee on Tuesday accused the IRS of stonewalling
its probe into the agency's unfair targeting of Tea Party groups and
other politically-affiliated organizations, saying Congress has received
only a fraction of the documents it requested and many of those
are useless.The House Oversight and Government Affairs Committee letter
directly blames acting Commissioner Danny Werfel for the systematic manner
in which his agency has attempted to delay, frustrate, impede and obstruct
the committees investigation, despite his promising just weeks earlier to
fully cooperate.The actions of the IRS under your leadership have made clear
to the committee that the agency has no intention of complying completely
or promptly with the committees oversight efforts, wrote committee Chairman
Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif.The letter also states that obstructing a congressional
investigation is a crime and that the committee will be forced to
use a compulsory process should the IRS continue to use its tactics.A
high-ranking committee staffer told FoxNews.com that process could include
subpoenas."We are doing everything we can to fully cooperate with the committees,
and we strongly disagree with any suggestions to the contrary," an IRS
spokesman said in response to the letter. "Given that all documents must
be carefully reviewed to protect taxpayer privacy, this continues to be
a time and labor intensive review process."The spokesman
LONDON A prominent Saudi prince has lost a case in Britain
over the handling the sale of a jet to the late Libyan
dictator Moammar Gadhafi.Prince Alwaleed bin Talal was being sued by Jordanian
businesswoman Daad Sharab, who claimed she was owed a 6.5 million pound
($9.9 million) commission for helping arrange the 2005 sale.The prince,
a nephew of Saudi King Abdullah whose wealth is estimated in the
billions, had denied agreeing to pay a specific commission.High Court Judge
Peter Smith ruled against the prince Wednesday at a hearing in London,
describing his evidence as "confusing and too unreliable."Sharab praised
the ruling, saying the decision reinforced her faith in the impartiality
of British courts.
