PRESIDENT MUGABE SAY"S ZIMBABWE CAN ONCE AGAIN FEED ITSELF

Mugabe has previously acknowledged that handing vast tracts of land to inexperienced black owners was a mistake. Zimbabwe produced enough food to feed its people for the first time since adopting a controversial policy to strip land from white farmers, President Robert Mugabe told parliament on Tuesday. From the year 2000, hundreds of white farmers were evicted from their farms, often violently, and land was handed to allies of the ruling ZANU-PF party and in many cases became neglected and unproductive. Zimbabwe had previously been known as the "breadbasket" of Africa. "The country has this year succeeded in regaining its food self-sufficiency status on the back of the good rainy season and the introduction of command agriculture," Mugabe said as he opened parliament. "Government is now working to consolidate agriculture through, among other things, investing more resources in water harvesting and irrigation development." A bumper harvest of...

BOWE BERGDAHL WON'T BE HEADING TO PRISON AFTER ALL

By
Image
Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who deserted his unit in Afghanistan and was later captured by the Taliban in 2009, won't have to face prison time, a military judge ruled in his case on Friday. Bergdahl, who pleaded guilty last month, is still facing dishonorable discharge from the military, loss of his government benefits, and having to pay a $10,000 restitution. He'll also be demoted, becoming a private. However, he's avoiding by far the most serious punishment. Prosecutors were hoping to put Bergdahl in prison for up to 14 years for desertion and another charge called "misbehavior before the enemy" (basically, putting other US soldiers who had to search for him in harm's way) Throughout the trial, Bergdahl's defense team argued that the soldier suffered from mental illness, which led to his decisions. Bergdahl was in captivity for five years and was eventually brought back to the United States in 2014 as part of a prisoner swap negotiated by then- President Obama. ...

CHICAGO –  A man has been found guilty in the 2010 death an off-duty Chicago police officer. It took a Cook County jury four hours Tuesday to find 25-year-old Bernard Williams guilty of first-degree murder in Officer David Blake's killing. The jury also found Williams guilty of armed robbery. Prosecutors said the then-18-year-old Williams lured Blake into an alley to kill the officer and raid a gun safe at his house. No physical evidence linked Williams to the killing of Blake, nor was the murder weapon recovered. However, several of Williams' friends testified he tried to recruit them to help in the murder and robbery, and then confessed after killing Blake. Assistant Public Defender Dylan Barrett told jurors that investigators targeted Williams "because of the pressure they felt to solve this crime."
