    ITALY'S government, divided over the Afghan war and its US military ties, lost a crucial parliamentary vote over foreign policy overnight prompting the opposition to call on Prime Minister Romano Prodi to quit. There was no constitutional requirement for Mr Prodi to step down, but Foreign Minister Massimo D'Alema had said before the vote that the centre-left government should resign if it did not command majority support on foreign policy.
