2Harwood won an Academy Award for his adaptation of “The Pianist”; here, he maintains much of the original dialogue, but the meaning and emotion behind it is often strangely lacking

When a writer’s voice is as distinctive as the Colombian Nobel Prize winner’s, it’s difficult to replicate it on-screen, even though director Mike Newell and screenwriter Ronald Harwood remain largely faithful to “Love in the Time of Cholera” in their…

11 attack on the U.S

The existing contract requires theaters to use at least three stagehands for each production: a carpenter, a property master and an electrician

No one, not the union nor the producers, is talking on the record about what might be the next step in Local 1’s battle with the League of American Theatres and Producers. Such a move would need the endorsement of…

Malou Innocent, a foreign policy analyst at the Cato Institute in Washington, said the incident “reflects the deepening mistrust between the coalition and their Afghan counterparts.” She added that the incident exemplifies the “poor communication” between coalition and Afghan forces. In the more than 30 attacks Afghan government troops have carried out on NATO forces this year, 51 service members, mostly Americans, have died, more than the last two years combined, CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports. U.S. and NATO forces suspended joint field operations with the Afghans last month because they became such a problem, Martin reported. Just last week, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said the joint operations had resumed although the reasoning behind the suspension appeared to have changed. On Wednesday, ISAF Deputy Commander Adrian Bradshaw, a British lieutenant general, told reporters that the suspension was related to the violent protests stemming from an American-made online video ridiculing the Muslim Prophet Muhammad. Bradshaw also insisted that insider attacks accounted for 4 percent of the war’s total casualties, even as reporters pointed out that they represent one-fifth of casualties from this year. His attempt to downplay the effect of the attacks contrasted with recent comments by NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen, who acknowledged the strain they’ve put on international troops, CBS Radio News reporter Teri Schultz reports. “No doubt insider attacks have undermined trust and confidence, absolutely,” Fogh Rasmussen said Monday. Outside Combat Outpost Little Blue, north of Kandahar, Afghanistan, Army Staff Sgt. Stephen Christopher Whitfield told CBS News correspondent Charlie D’Agata that he was concerned having his base right next to another base manned by armed Afghan forces. “Of course it does, with the insider threats that are taking place in the last couple of months,” said Whitfield, “but you deal with whatever situation you have, and we’ve never had a problem out here.” Innocent said recent controversies such as the online video showing U.S. soldiers urinating on dead Taliban fighters and the burning of copies of the Muslim holy book, the Koran, at a military base created the perception of a lack of respect for Afghan cultural values. “This is a sort of a confluence of the factors that created this incident,” Innocent said. Ruben, however, said the attacks go much deeper than a sense of disrespect. “The notion that green-on-blue violence is basically the result of personal problems between Afghan troops and their American partners is nonsense, but the Pentagon doesn’t want to consider the alternative,” he said. That alternative embraced by Ruben, a former Pentagon official who’s now a senior lecturer at the Naval Postgraduate School, is that the attacks are ideologically inspired, noting that the attackers aren’t just killing international troops but are also turning their guns on fighters in the Afghan army. “It can’t be solved by being more polite with Afghan colleagues,” Ruben said. In fact, a Taliban commander told CBS News chief foreign correspondent Lara Logan in an interview broadcast on CBS’ “60 Minutes” Sunday that insider attacks “part of our new military strategy” and “the orders come from the top.” Al Qaeda fighters have been coming into Afghanistan to work on the attacks with the Taliban, said the commander, who spoke to Logan on condition of anonymity. He told her that more than a dozen Qaeda militants operate under his command. Ruben wouldn’t say whether Saturday’s incident would have happened if Western soldiers didn’t feel threatened by insider attacks. “All I can say,” he said, “is it certainly is going to lead to some itchy trigger fingers.”

A statement issued by a U.N. spokesperson on behalf of Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said the secretary general “expresses his deepest concern at the incident” and “extends his sincere condolences to the Government and people of Turkey over this tragic loss of life.” The statement added that Ban “has repeatedly warned that the ongoing militarization of the conflict in Syria is leading to tragic results for the Syrian people.” NATO’s National Atlantic Council, which is composed of the national ambassadors, held an emergency meeting in Brussels on Wednesday night at Turkey’s request to discuss the cross-border incident. A statement on NATO’s Web site Wednesday said: “The most recent shelling on 3 October 20l2, which caused the death of five Turkish citizens and injured many, constitutes a cause of greatest concern for, and is strongly condemned by, all Allies. “In the spirit of indivisibility of security and solidarity deriving from the Washington Treaty, the Alliance continues to stand by Turkey and demands the immediate cessation of such aggressive acts against an Ally, and urges the Syrian regime to put an end to flagrant violations of international law.” Turkey, a NATO ally, is anxious to avoid going into Syria on its own. It has been pushing for international intervention in the form of a safe zone, which would likely entail foreign security forces on the ground and a partial no-fly zone. However, the allies fear military intervention in Syria could ignite a wider conflict, and few observers expect robust action from the United States, which Turkey views as vital to any operation in Syria, ahead of the presidential election in November. According to Turkey’s NTV station, the Syrian information ministry said it had launched an investigation into Wednesday’s shelling and expressed sorrow for the deaths of Turkish civilians. But it urged Turkey to prevent the cross-border infiltration of what it called terrorists. Turkey hosts more than 90,000 Syrian refugees in camps along its border, and also hosts Syrian opposition groups. There is concern in Turkey that the Syrian chaos could have a destabilizing effect on Turkey’s own communities; some observers have attributed a sharp rise in violence by Kurdish rebels in Turkey to militant efforts to take advantage of the regional uncertainty.
