Several Iranian banks have been targeted in one of the biggest frauds in the Islamic republic's history, losing nearly $2.6 billion in more than two years, media reports said Sunday.

Israel's diplomatic ties with Egypt down to bare minimum
The rioting at the Israeli embassy in Cairo over the weekend revealed the enormous difficulties in relations between Israel and Egypt in the post-Mubarak era. The fact that no direct contact was established during the incident with the head of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces, Field Marshal Mohamed Hussein Tantawi, and that Israel was forced to rely on the U.S. in relaying messages to Egypt, are proof of the depth of the problem.

Germany and Greece flirt with mutual assured destruction
First we learn from planted leaks that Germany is activating "Plan B", telling banks and insurance companies to prepare for 50pc haircuts on Greek debt; then that Germany is “studying” options that include Greece's return to the drachma. German finance minister Wolfgang Schauble has chosen to do this at a moment when the global economy is already flirting with double-dip recession, bank shares are crashing, and global credit strains are testing Lehman levels. The recklessness is breath-taking. If it is a pressure tactic to force Greece to submit to EU-IMF demands of yet further austerity, it may instead bring mutual assured destruction. "Whoever thinks that Greece is an easy scapegoat, will find that this eventually turns against them, against the hard core of the eurozone," said Greek.../

But the informal message was that, in the event things go from bad to worse and we get stuck in the Great Recession Part 2, they stand equally.../
US: Bill to move embassy to Jerusalem gains force
A bill circulating in the US House of Representatives that would strip the president of his power to waive a law requiring him to move the US Embassy to Jerusalem is gaining traction and bipartisan support amid a groundswell of Christian support for the measure. The proposal, which comes as the Palestinians prepare to unilaterally seek recognition of an independent state at the United Nations next week, serves to highlight the fruition of faith-based diplomacy at a time of increasing Israeli isolation in the diplomatic arena. Successive US.../
Religious leaders say best hope for peace begins when world's faith traditions unite
Some say it was fanatical faith that led to the 9/11 attacks on the U.S. Denver's religious leaders said on the 10th anniversary that the best hope for peace begins with the world's faith traditions coming together. In service of that ideal, representatives of the three Abrahamic faiths — Judaism, Islam and Christianity — gathered at St. John's Cathedral Sunday to have "Conversations That Matter" and "A Multifaith Service of Remembrance Healing and Hope." "I don't know that any of this accomplishes anything," said participant Ann Kelly,../

Do zoo animals forecast quakes, other disasters?
In the dead of night, dogs howl. Snakes slither away in droves. Moments later, an earthquake upends the landscape. No one sees it coming - no human, that is. Can animals sense disaster before it strikes? It's a mystery that dates from antiquity to the present. Seconds before a 5.8 quake jolted the East Coast in August, apes and birds at the National Zoo in Washington, D.C., reportedly shrieked, scurried to higher ground and huddled together. So what about the Bay Area,../
