Hot Breaking News about Cannes sheds its black tie image for G20 riot gear (Reuters)
CANNES, France (Reuters) – The glamorous and easy-going Riviera resort of Cannes turns into a fortified camp this week as French police prepare for the arrival of world leaders for a G20 summit set to be hijacked by fears that a euro zone crisis relief plan is unraveling.
Thousands of extra police have been deployed along the Mediterranean coast to stop protestors traveling the 30 km (19 miles) down from Nice, where they are being kept at arm's length, and sparking clashes that could disrupt the gathering.
Police have sealed off Cannes' mythical waterfront drag, set up a second security perimeter around the old town and told 'Cannois' locals aged over 12 they must wear identity badges to move around their own city during the Nov 3-4 summit.

Newly unveiled videos give a comprehensive look at how a group of Russian infiltrators collected and traded information — and how they were trailed by watchful U.S. counterspies during their long trail of deception.
One video released by the FBI shows former spy and current celebrity Anna Chapman sitting in a New York City coffee shop, discussing laptop repairs with, unbeknownst to her, an undercover U.S. agent.
A Freedom of Information Act request led the FBI to open their coffers. What emerged was a veritable trove — a heavily redacted one, of course — of spy footage. And it’s incredible how Hollywood truly does imitate real life. We know we’ve seen some of these maneuvers in Breach or Bourne Identity.

BERLIN (Reuters) – A leader in Chancellor Angela Merkel's center-right coalition said on Tuesday he was "irritated" to hear Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou had called a referendum on the EU bailout deal for his country.
Rainer Bruederle, parliamentary floor leader for the Free Democrats Party (FDP) that shares power with Merkel's conservatives, said that it sounded to him like Greece was now trying to backtrack on the deal with EU leaders.

Hot Breaking News about Abbas faults Arab refusal of 1947 U.N. Palestine plan (Reuters)
JERUSALEM (Reuters) – Arabs made a "mistake" by rejecting a 1947 U.N. proposal that would have created a Palestinian state alongside the nascent Israel, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said in an interview aired on Friday.
Palestinian leaders have always insisted that General Assembly Resolution 181, which paved the way for Jewish statehood in parts of then British-ruled Palestine, must be resisted by Arabs who went to war over it.
Decades of regional fighting have hinged on challenges to Israel's existence and expansion. By describing historical fault on the Arab side, Abbas appeared to be offering Israel an olive branch while promoting his own bid to sidestep stalled peace talks by winning U.N. recognition for a sovereign Palestine.
