Syrian general killed BEIRUT (AP) — One of Syria’s most powerful military officers was killed in fighting with al-Qaidalinked Islamic extremists in an oil-rich eastern province largely controlled by the rebels, Syrian state-run television said Thursday. The fighting came amid a new push to hold an elusive peace conference for Syria’s civil war, with the government proposing the talks start late next month, though there was no sign the opposition would attend. Maj. Gen. Jameh Jameh was killed in the provincial capital of Deir el-Zour, where he was the head of military intelligence, state-run TV said. He was the most senior military
officer to be killed in more than a year. The report did not say when or how Jameh was killed, only that he died “while he was carrying out his mission in defending Syria and its people.” The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Jameh was killed by a sniper bullet during clashes with rebels, including members of al-Qaida-linked Jabhat al-Nusra or Nusra Front. Jameh’s cousin, Haitham Jameh, told Lebanon-based Al-Mayadeen TV that the general was killed when a bomb exploded as he led his troops in an operation in Deir el-Zour, site of more than a year of clashes.
impact it has — hopefully they’ll make adjustments. “They do listen to people,” he said about the Obama administration. “They listened to big business and delayed the business mandate. They’ve made changes themselves, but he would rather do it himself rather than working with Congress.” Stutzman said he still believes it is unconstitutional to force Americans to buy health insurance or face a penalty. The bill passed Wednesday night funds the federal government through Jan. 15, 2014, and extends the debt ceiling to Feb. 7 or longer.
“We’ll get through Christmas and the New Year, and we’ll see what happens,” Stutzman said. “We have to get control of our debt. This debt has almost doubled and will double by the time President Obama’s presidency is up.” “This president has been governing from crisis to crisis,” Stutzman added. “We have gone up to the brink before. The president said this morning that he hopes to focus on these budget issues over the next couple of months in a productive way. If history tells us anything, he wants to raise taxes, and he’s never been serious about tax reform.” Stutzman said Democratic President Bill Clinton was
very good at finding ways to common ground with Republicans, adding, “There was a lot of give and take, but that is not there with President Obama.” Stutzman was looking forward to returning to his family farm near Howe for the weekend and said he would “maybe even jump in the combine on Saturday.” He is scheduled to return the Capitol Tuesday, when the Farm Bill will be on the agenda. Stutzman said he is hoping to succeed in his push to separate the Farm Bill from funding for food stamps, “trying to get a Farm Bill that’s responsible to taxpayers as well as a bill that works for agriculture.”
SHUTDOWN: Furloughed workers to get back pay FROM PAGE A1
Karen and Richard Dodds of Oklahoma City were on a quest to see every national park in the U.S. They arrived in Philadelphia about three weeks ago in their motor home, visiting Valley Forge just before the shutdown. They stayed on in the area, awaiting a settlement. “They didn’t solve anything by this,” Katie Dodds said of the temporary agreement in Congress that funds the government only through Jan. 15 and gives
it the borrowing authority it needs only through Feb. 7. “The worst part is they’ll do it again in January and February.” Among the many sites reopening in Washington were the Smithsonian Institution’s museums and the World War II memorial on the National Mall, which had been the scene of protests over the shutdown. Smithsonian spokeswoman Linda St. Thomas said the museum complex lost about $2.8 million
in revenue during the shutdown. The National Zoo was set to reopen Friday, though its popular panda cam went live Thursday morning, giving fans a view of a cub wriggling about as its mother, Mei Xiang, tucked her paws under her chin and watched. Federal workers who were furloughed or worked without pay during the shutdown will get back pay in their next paychecks, which for most employees come Oct. 29.
