Government releases part of oil stockpile
NATION
WASHINGTON — Citing a prospective heating oil crisis, the government is putting 30 million barrels of its petroleum stockpile into the market, hoping the additional crude will ease tight supplies and reduce prices before the arrival of winter. Analysts were uncertain how much of an impact the additional oil will have as it is released from the government reserve over the next 30 days, and Republicans called it an election-year ploy aimed at getting votes for Vice President Al Gore.
"This is not political," said Energy Secretary Bill Richardson.
Ambassador to Israel faces security inquiry
WASHINGTON — The State Department has suspended the security clearance of U.S. Ambassador to Israel Martin S. Indyk pending an investigation into alleged security violations, a State Department official said Saturday. The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said there was no indication of espionage in this matter and that Indyk had cooperated fully with investigators from the State Department and FBI.
"At this time there has been no indication that any intelligence information has been compromised," the official said. "This is a question of security procedures that have not been followed."
Indyk, 49, is barred from handling classified materials and must be escorted inside the State Department building.
Dozens of Iraqi Christians seek political asylum
SAN DIEGO — Nearly two dozen Iraqi Christians have been bused from Mexico to the United States, where they applied for political asylum three days after they and more than 100 others were detained in a shabby Tijuana hotel.
the group was taken across the U.S. border to the San Ysidro Port where officials said their applications were being processed. Mexican authorities had said hours earlier that they planned to release all 133 of the Iraqi Christians, known as Chaldeans, to the United States in the days ahead. The Chaldeans have been gathering the past few months in Tijuana and had planned to seek asylum in the United States, fearing religious persecution if they returned to their homeland.
