(AP) "Iraqi officials nullified election results in more than 30 polling stations due to fraud in last month's provincial balloting...."

(Reuters/AFP) Holbrooke has thrown Karzai a sop, allowing Afghanistan to "be involved" in the US interagency review of US policy on Pakistan/Afghanistan. (I assume this is just so Karzai can tell his people he has some influence with the US. It's the only value he can offer them anymore.)

(NYTimes) The US military will finally offer a "quick path to ciizenship" for legal aliens who serve in the armed forces. (Be very, very careful, you don't want people who don't want to be in the battle.....)

(IntlNews) Pakistani opposition parties make hay with Feinstein's slip that US drones are flown from Pakistan.

(Reuters) FBI admits most terror threats unfounded.

(WaPo) Geithner at the G7 finance ministers meeting.
