U.S. to Offer Turkey Help on PKK

The U.S. is to offer Turkey a package of measures to dissuade Ankara from mounting a large-scale military incursion into Iraq to attack PKK Kurdish guerrillas, who have killed scores of Turkish soldiers in recent weeks.

Ahead of a meeting in Washington on Monday between President George W. Bush and Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkey’s prime minister, U.S. officials said Ankara would have to get concrete American help to combat the PKK, which has bases in northern Iraq from where it frequently launches attacks into Turkey.

“Erdogan has to go back with the belief that for whatever reason, the U.S. is serious” about tackling Turkey’s concerns regarding the PKK, said Matthew Bryza, deputy assistant secretary at the U.S. state department responsible for Turkey policy. Full story...

“Fiji detains 16 alleged plotters”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Police in Fiji have arrested 16 people in the past two days, after uncovering an alleged plot against the country’s military leader, Frank Bainimarama.
Businessmen, politicians and former soldiers were among those detained, and will be charged, police say, on Monday.

New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark said one of those arrested, a New Zealander, had been badly beaten.

Mr Bainimarama came to power after a bloodless coup in December 2006, but has promised elections in early 2009.

He has pledged to abide by the results.

Fiji has seen four coups in the past two decades.”

Chicken plant workers test positive for TB

212 out of 765 processing employees infected – company says HIV-privacy laws nix screening

Alabama health officials have identified 212 workers who have tested positive for tuberculosis at a single poultry plant owned by one of the largest processors in the U.S.

In two batteries of skin tests last month, given to 765 fresh processing employees at the Decatur, Ala., plant owned by Wayne Farms LLC by the State Department of Public Health's Tuberculosis Control Division, 28 percent were found to be infected, including one with active tuberculosis disease, which is contagious. Doctors have yet to evaluate X-rays for 165 current workers who tested positive to determine if any more are contagious.

The testing was prompted by an earlier active TB case – a former Wayne Farms worker.

Both employees with active TB are Hispanics born in countries where the disease is prevalent, heath officials said.
