Russia to Continue Importing Rabbis
Foreigners will continue teaching Torah to Russian adherents of Judaism because there are not enough native rabbis, the country’s leading Jewish organization said. The decision was announced by the Federation of Jewish Communities of Russia, or FEOR, which held its congress in Moscow this week. More than 200 Russian citizens received rabbi training under FEOR after the fall of the Soviet Union, but their numbers are still not enough, said the group, which comprises about 200 communities in 180 cities across the nation.

Libya fallout fans Sahel hunger pangs
Sahel states are bracing for a long, potentially deadly hungry season, many weakened by the return of people from Libya who are unemployed, armed and creating fresh strife in already-vulnerable countries. Crops have failed across a massive swathe of eight countries after late and erratic rains in 2011, and aid agencies have raised the alarm of a food crisis bigger than that which left millions hungry in 2010.

Egypt's "war on democracy" threatens U.S.-ties
CAIRO (Reuters) – Arriving in Egypt last year, Julie Hughes had hoped to help write history by aiding the country's new generation of politicians and civil society groups to build a democratic future.

Libya says will strike back if Kadhafi men behind unrest
Libya said it will strike back if diehards of slain dictator Moamer Kadhafi were behind deadly clashes in his former bastion of Bani Walid , where confusion reigned Tuesday as to who was behind the unrest. Five people were killed and several wounded on Monday when fighting erupted in the town, which local officials said began with an attack by supporters of Kadhafi against a base of former rebels. Those claims were strongly denied by Interior Minister Fawzi Abdelali late Monday, while an AFP correspondent who visited the town the same day said it was unclear who controlled it
