Court rejects Obama bid to stop wiretapping suit

By DEVLIN BARRETT
The Associated Press
Friday, February 27, 2009; 3:34 PM

WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration has lost its argument that the state secrets privilege is a good enough reason to stop a lawsuit over the government's warrantless wiretapping program.

A federal appeals court in San Francisco has rejected the Justice Department's request for an emergency stay. The Obama administration, like the Bush administration before it, claimed that national security would be compromised if a lawsuit brought by the U.S. chapter of an Islamic charity was allowed to proceed.

The case was brought by the Al-Haramain Islamic Foundation, a defunct charity with a chapter in Oregon.

The appeals court decision is a setback for the new Obama administration as it adopts some of the same positions on national security and secrecy as the Bush administration.

India commits to major defence budget increase
By Fenella McGerty and Rahul Bedi
19 February 2009

Indian defence spending will rise by more than a third to
INR1,417 billion (USD32.7 billion) in Fiscal Year 2009,
according to the interim budget presented by acting
finance minister Pranab Mukherjee on 16 February.

This figure represents a 34.2 per cent increase from the
proposed 2008 budget of INR1,057 billion and a 23.6 % increase
from the revised 2008 defence spending estimate of INR1,146 billion.

The allocation is nearly 15 per cent of the government's total interim
budget of INR9,532.31 billion for the fiscal year beginning on 1 April.

The interim budget is to finance expenditure ahead
of the general election scheduled for May 2009.

Of the INR1,417 billion defence budget, planned expenditure
has risen 18 per cent for 2009/10 from INR736 billion to
INR868.79 billion. This includes INR548.24 billion for capital
expenditure vs. INR410 billion in the revised estimates for 08-09.

However, defence officials said the 34 % rise would
be "neutralised" by delays in decision-making by the
Ministry of Defence and military officials in confirming
equipment acquisitions and modernisation programmes.
