Korean War bodies found
The Associated Press
TOKYO — Remains recently unearthed in North Korea and believed to be those of seven American soldiers missing in action from the Korea War were repatriated Tuesday to the moan of bagpipes and the crack of a 21-gun salute.
A bugler blew taps as the caskets, draped in powder blue United Nations flags, were carried by full-dress military honor guards under a full moon and into a hangar at Yokota Air Base on the outskirts of Tokyo.
A U.S. Air Force cargo plane picked up the remains in Pyongyung earlier in the day. On Wednesday, they are scheduled to be flown to the U.S. Army's Central Identification Laboratory in Hawaii for forensic examination;
"They will try to determine who these people were." Yokota's Captain Michael Braibish said after Tuesday's memorial ceremony.
The recoveries were made in the first of three searches scheduled this year in North Korea by

The remains were first flown to Yokota Air Base because it was a staging point for the U.N. forces that backed South Korea during the 1950-53 Korean War.
Flags of the nations that sent troops, including Turkey, Thailand and Great Britain, flanked the caskets at Tuesday's hangar ceremony.

Tom Schneider, commander of the UN Command Rear based in Japan, said their return would bring "a little bit of closure to those families" that lost loved ones.
More than 8,100 U.S. troops
remain unaccounted for from the Korean War. Since 1996, searches by U.S. teams have recovered 159 sets of remains in North Korea, of which 13 have been identified positively.
Six of the seven new sets were recovered near the Chosin Reservoir. The area was the scene of fierce battles in November and December 1950, when the 1st Marine Division was overwhelmed by a surprise Chinese army assault and was forced to withdraw under fire. Elements of the Army's 7th Infantry Division also fought there.
Pentagon officials have estimated that the Chosin area eventually could yield about 1,000 remains of American servicemen.
The seventh set of remains was recovered along the Chongchon River near the junction of Unsan and Kujang counties, about 60 miles north of Pyongyang. The area was the site of battles between the U.S. Army's 1st Cavalry and 25th Infantry Division and Chinese forces in November 1950.
Videos show terror training
The Associated Press
ISLAMABAD Pakistan Al-Qaida recruits blew up mock buildings and bridges and practiced taking hostages at gunpoint in a training film video-taped by Osama bin Laden's forces and aired Wednesday by CNN.
The broadcast was the third installment in a series of videotapes the network said came from a cache of 64 al-Qaida tapes taken from Afghanistan. CNN said Tuesday that it paid $30,000 for the footage.
In the latest report, al-Qaida
In the latest reports, alQaida recruits were seen conducting training exercises in a camp in eastern Afghanistan that CNN described as a "Western city replicated in canvas and stone."

Trainees blow up a mock bridge and fired machine guns through the doors of huts constructed of stone and wood. In another segment, motorcycle-riding men wearing camouflage clothing and black scarves on their faces roared up beside two white sport utility vehicles, cut them off, yanked open their doors and seized hostages.
Later, al-Qaida fighters were seen firing automatic weapons and rappelling down the side of a cliff. Others crawled on their stomachs through the dirt, communicating with hand-held radios.

Afghan officials suspect war crimes
KABUL, Afghanistan — The Afghan Cabinet decided Wednesday to investigate the alleged suffocation of hundreds of captive Taliban in sealed cargo containers toward the end of last year's war.
THURSDAY, AUGUST 22, 2002
President Hamid Karzai's government made the commitment despite the expressed skepticism of the powerful defense minister, Mohammed Fahim, about what he called a "rumor" of a mass grave of prisoners.
In announcing the decision, however, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said no specific orders were issued immediately to organize an investigation.
The latest eyewitnesses accounts of the prisoner deaths appeared in an article Sunday in the U.S. newsmagazine Newsweek, which cited a confidential U.N. investigative report in which a witness said 960 men were killed in this way.
The first such news reports emerged late last year, when surviving prisoners and humanitarian organizations said Taliban fighters captured in the surrender of the northern city of Kunduz last November had been jammed into unventilated metal shipping containers to be trucked to a prison 200 miles away at Shibergan.
An Associated Press report last February quoted a driver of one of the vehicles as reporting that trapped prisoners banged on his truck container's inner walls and begged desperately for air and water, and that some, at least, were dead when the truck arrived at the prison.
