Growing up in a small Now Icelanders — all Iceland fishing village, World >> In Brief Washington, D.C. Obama:Iraqis now in charge WASHINGTON — Firmly and finally ending the U.S. combat mission in Iraq, President Barack Obama will have but a moment before trying to hasten peace nearby between Israelis and Palestinians. Left unclear is whether winding down the war that inflamed Arab passions will do any- thing to help long-shot Mideast talks. From the Oval Office, a setting designed to command gravity and attention, Obama will declare tonight that Iraqis are now the ones in charge of a war he had opposed. Within hours on Wednesday, he will be immersed in talks with Israeli and Palestinian leaders, underscoring the hopeful but precarious U.S. role as a middleman. The White House is framing the two events as commitments kept by the president. But there is little excitement buzz and certainly no bold promises that capping the combat mission in Iraq will prod broader peace in the Middle East. Tuesday night, Obama’s emphasis will be to thank the troops and explain why the fight goes on in Afghanistan and beyond — and not so much about the potential for Iraq to be “a beacon of liberty in the Middle East” as President George W. Bush put it. In a narrow sense, the peace talks convened by the White House have little to do with Iraq. The Middle East stalemate has to do with the borders of a potential Palestinian state, the fate of Palestinian refugees, the status of Jerusalem, the security of Israel — and trust on both sides. Making progress on those points, not the Iraq war, is at the core of renewed talks between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. Puerto Rico Hurricane Earl batters islands SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Hurricane Earl battered tiny islands across the northeastern Caribbean with heavy rain and roof-ripping winds Monday, rapidly intensifying into a major Category 4 storm on a path projected to menace the United States. Already dangerous with sustained winds of 135 mph (215 kph), Earl is expected to gain more strength before potentially brushing the U.S. East Coast this week and bringing deadly rip currents. The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami warned coastal resi- dents from North Carolina to Maine to watch the storm closely. “Any small shift in the track could dramatically alter whether it makes landfall or whether it remains over the open ocean,” said Wallace Hogsett, a meteorologist at the center. “I can’t urge enough to just stay tuned.” In the Caribbean, Earl caused flooding in low-lying areas and dam- aged homes on islands including Antigua and Barbuda, Anguilla and St. Maarten. Several countries and territories reported power outages. Cruise ships were diverted and flights canceled across the region.

Iraq Biden seeks to reassure Iraq BAGHDAD — Vice President Joe Biden sought Monday to reassure Iraq that America is not abandon- ing it as the U.S. military steps back and a stalemate over who will run the war-battered nation’s next government approaches its sixth month. Biden flew into Baghdad a few days before a military ceremony formally marking the end of U.S. combat operations seven years after the invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein. He will also try to spur the nation’s leaders to forge a power-sharing agreement to bring some much-needed polit- ical stability to Iraq after March parliamentary elections failed to produce a clear winner. Biden tried to reassure Iraqis that America’s transition to more of a diplomatic mission in Iraq than a military one would be smooth. “We’re going to be just fine. They’re going to be just fine,” he said during a brief photo opportu- nity at the U.S. Embassy, sitting next to Ambassador Jim Jeffrey and surrounded by top U.S. gener- als overseeing Iraq and the rest of the Middle East. The Sept. 1 ceremony marks the start of the so-called “Operation New Dawn” — symbol- izing the beginning of the end of the American military’s mission in Iraq. Source: AP
