Taleban
blamed for new violence in Iraq
Following
his comments last week that al-Queda agents are active in Iraq,
President Bush has now said that Mullah Omar, the leader of
Afghanistan's Taleban, has been spotted in Baghdad with a band
of Taleban fighters. The allegation comes after a convoy of
Toyota pick-ups, Yamaha motorbikes and Arabian horses was tracked
making its way through Iran in the direction of Iraq.

Neighbours
held in solitary confinement after dispute over small shrub
Two couples, who have lived next to each other
for 17 years and who have been arguing for just as long, have
been confined to separate dark windowless cells at the local police
station in Liverpool to await trial after attempting to shoot
and stab each other repeatedly. The most recent dispute over the
bush on the border of their properties ended with one man pursuing
the other with a shotgun while his wife was being chased with
a machete through a local supermarket. None of the defendants
were able to recall the original source of the arguments when
asked, but all said they would do exactly the same again if given
a chance.
Mayor
of Madrid wants Gotham as new 'Twin Town'
The mayor of Madrid is desperately trying
to recapture the spotlight from Posh and Becks, after the footballer's
move to Real Madrid, by introducing a high-profile measure to
adopt Gotham City, home of Batman and Robin, as its new 'Twin
Town'. Attempts by various lackeys to point out the fictional
nature of Gotham City have been quickly brushed aside by the mayor
on his way to and from various press conferences to discuss the
details of the plan. Hollywood is said to be planning a new Batman
movie based in Madrid to appeal to the growing Hispanic-American
audiences with 10 per cent of the profits going to Real Madrid
for some unknown reason.
