France - Lituanie (1-0)

(L'Equipe) SUR LE MÊME SUJETRIBERY, encore au bout de la chaîneEntre le France - Lituanie de Kaunas et celui du Stade de France, un bon vieux ''copier-coller'' pourrait suffire.

Il n'est guère risqué, cependant, de parier sa chemise sur le fait que le Toulousain a plus de chances de devenir important : son âge (23 ans), son registre à la fois mobile et puissant, sa capacité à être décisif, en tant que buteur en club, en tant que passeur pour sa première sélectionen équipe de France.

J'ai tenté des choses, et c'est passé.» Au moment où il prononce ces phrases, juste après France - Lituanie (1-0), Karim Benzema se trouve au même droit qu'un an plus tôt, dans les couloirs du Stade de France, le soir où il avait dit qu'il ne voulait plus jouer sur un côté avec l'OL.

Juste techniquement, incisif, rampe de lancement du but tricolore, mieux inspiré que ces derniers temps dans ses choix de frappe ou de passes, Benzema a tout simplement réveillé une équipe de France bloquée.

Pas d?entraînement pour Mensah

Le 1er tour de la France en Coupe Davis

Victime d'injures racistes lors de la rencontre Lyon-Le Havre dimanche dernier à Gerland (3-1), puis expulsé, John Mensah n'a pas participé à l'entraînement de l'OL.

Parce que John est un type solide, vraiment un sacré gaillard, on ne prend pas la mesure de la gravité d'une telle chose mais les failles intérieures sont incommensurables.

John a un moment imaginé quitter Lyon, quitter la France, retourner au Ghana et arrêter sa carrière.»

Portrait : le président soudanais Omar el-Béchir

Le général Béchir et un groupe d'officiers renversent le 30 juin 1989 le gouvernement démocratiquement élu de Sadiq el-Mahdi à la faveur d'un coup d'Etat appuyé par le Front islamique national, parti de son mentor Hassan al-Tourabi qui deviendra plus tard son pire opposant.

Sous l'influence de Tourabi, Omar el-Béchir oriente le Soudan - pays de 40 millions d'habitants morcelé en une pléthore de tribus et divisé entre le nord majoritairement musulman et le sud peuplé de chrétiens et d'animistes - vers un islam radical.

Les forces populaires de défense créées dans la foulée du coup d'Etat sont déployées au sud pour combattre les "infidèles" et imposer la charia, la loi islamique, ouvrant un nouveau chapitre d'une guerre civile amorcée en 1983 et qui a fait deux millions de morts jusqu'en 2005.

Afghan leader: need to reconcile with Taliban

not come to Afghanistan, or to the region, or to the international community without better coordination with our neighbors," Karzai said.

"We will invite all of those Taliban who are not part of al-Qaida, who are not part of terrorist networks, who want to return to their country, who want to live by the constitution of Afghanistan, who want to have a normal life, to come back to their country," Karzai said.

Jung said Germany thought the number of troops in Afghanistan was sufficient, given NATO's roughly 55,000 forces there and the fact that Washington was preparing to double American troops to about 60,000.

After fits and starts, the White House and Congress are moving on parallel tracks toward a new round of heavy intervention in the U.S.
