According to a report on a Japanese broadcaster's [link in Japanese. CiJ] web site, which is in turn based on South Korean intelligence, ten North Koreans were killed in September's IAF strike on a North Korean-built nuclear plant in Syria.The 10 people, whose remains were cremated and returned to North Korea in October, had been helping with the construction of a nuclear reactor in Syria, Japan's public broadcaster said. Some North Koreans probably survived the air attack, NHK said.Too bad.

Hizbullah Detains Member of French Socialist Party
A member of the French Socialist Party, in Lebanon for an international conference, was detained by Hizbullah for four hours on Sunday after he was seen taking photographs in a Hizbullah-controlled area south of Beirut.
Karim Pakzad and a co-traveler were taking pictures of a mosque, when a motorcycle and SUV approached and forced their car to follow them. The French Foreign Ministry has demanded an "investigation and judicial follow-up" of the incident. Walid Jumblatt, the longtime leader of an anti-Syrian socialist party in Lebanon, who spoke at a news conference with Pakzad on Sunday, said that Hizbullah's actions demonstrated that it acted as a state-within-a-state.
