The Sydney siege has brought home some troubling truths to Australians. They are not immune to the upheavals in the Middle East, despite being on the other side of the world. They are as vulnerable as Canadians or Europeans to what are often called "lone-wolf" terror attacks. And recently-introduced anti-terror laws, while some of the toughest in the world, can only do so much. Radicalized Australians have been drawn to ISIS for many months, as well as to al Qaeda's affiliate in Syria, Jabhat al-Nusra. Intelligence estimates put the number of Australians fighting with militant groups in the region at between 60 and 100. And long before Syria and Iraq became the jihadists' destinations of choice, Australians were among foreign militants converging on Yemen, Somalia and Pakistan. @highlight Australia is not immune to the upheavals in the Middle East, writes CNN's Tim Lister @highlight ASIO: Around 100 Australians support jihadist groups @highlight The jihadist pipeline from Australia to the region has become more sophisticated @highlight Australia has also contributed military support to the anti-ISIS coalition

(CNN) -- Over the past few days, politicians and experts have been debating the merits of the Obama administration's strategy in Iraq -- or whether there is in fact a strategy. The debate generally ignores a key underlying fact: The United States no longer has the ability or the will to shape the outcome in Iraq to the degree that American policy makers would like. At the same time, politicians on both sides of the aisle appear constrained in their ability to talk candidly about U.S. foreign policy objectives and strategy because of concerns about domestic public opinion and so they often default to partisan sound bites. @highlight Former CIA analysts: After 10 years, U.S. has limited ability to change things in Iraq @highlight They say the U.S. goal should be to contain the problem and prevent catastrophe @highlight Analysts: U.S. is right to address humanitarian crisis on Mount Sinjar @highlight America must ensure that ISIS doesn't acquire chemical, biological weapons, they say

In the @placeholder episode Snyder calls Cartman's use of their teams name 'derogatory.'
A South Park commercial that aired on Sunday during the Washington-Philadelphia Eagles game shines a humorous new light on the controversial team name the Washington Redskins. The commercial which aired only in Washington D.C. seems to be an attempt by the creators of South Park to share their negative opinion of the team's refusal to change their name now that as of June, the name Redskins is no longer a protected trademark, reports The Huffington Post. In the commercial, Eric Cartman runs a business under the Washington Redskins name.

@placeholder sees hope in the 25% decline in executions as the group pushes for abolishment.
(CNN) -- Thirty one countries have abolished the death penalty but China, Iran, Saudi Arabia, the United States and Yemen remain amongst the most frequent executioners, according to a new report from Amnesty International released Monday. The human rights organization officially recorded at least 527 executions in 2010, down from at least 714 in 2009. The leading regions for executions, according to Amnesty, are Asia and the Middle East, with eight of the top 10 nations from those areas. "While executions may be on the decline, a number of countries continue to pass death sentences for drug-related offenses, economic crimes, sexual relations between consenting adults and blasphemy -- violating international human rights law forbidding the use of the death penalty except for the most serious crimes," said Salil Shetty, the group's secretary general. @highlight China maintains secrecy over its use of the death penalty @highlight China, Iran, North Korea, Yemen and United States execute the most people @highlight China executes more than the rest of world combined, according to Amnesty International @highlight The United States executed 46 people in 2010

@placeholder has faced questions about how it could have found wreckage deep underwater, thousands of miles from the official search area.
Beijing (CNN) -- Relatives of vanished Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 passengers wailed and yelled in a Beijing hotel Thursday as the airline announced it was closing the assistance centers where they'd been gathered for weeks -- effectively telling the families to go home. The closures also will mean no more mass daily briefings for the relatives -- news that sparked a new wave of anguish and despair for the hundreds who heard it at Beijing's Lido Hotel.

@placeholder of PSEG said the company is cooperating with authorities investigating Mobley.
(CNN) -- Federal authorities are investigating a New Jersey man suspected of being an al Qaeda member and going on a deadly rampage at a hospital in Yemen. The FBI is investigating Sharif Mobley, a 26-year-old from Buena, New Jersey, said Rich Wolf, a spokesman at the agency's Baltimore, Maryland, office. He wouldn't comment further. Mobley had worked at nuclear plants operated by PSEG Nuclear for different contractors from 2002 to 2008, doing routing labor such as carrying supplies and assisting with maintenance activities, company spokesman Joe Delmar said.

@placeholder warns against the use of force but will promote "dialogue and cooperation and play a constructive role" in dealing with the Iranian nuclear issue.
Beijing (CNN) -- China's Foreign Ministry weighed in on the widespread anxiety over Iran's nuclear program on Friday, urging Iran to be flexible with the U.N. nuclear agency but staunchly deploring force amid talk of strikes against the country. Hong Lei, the ministry spokesman, made the comments, state-run news agency Xinhua said on Friday. They come ahead of a report on Iran's nuclear program expected to be released next week by the International Atomic Energy Agency. "As a member of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, Iran should fulfill the relevant international obligations," Hong told reporters. The report is expected to focus specifically on research and development that Tehran may have carried out that would help it build a nuclear warhead. Iran said it is developing nuclear power for peaceful purposes but Western powers have long asserted that Iran aspires to build nuclear weapons. @highlight Talk of force against Iran surfaces in the media @highlight China backs "dialogue and cooperation" @highlight China is a permanent U.N.

But public anger over a recently published Chinese "white paper" declaring @placeholder's "comprehensive jurisdiction" over the territory, released amid a campaign by pro-democracy activists for universal suffrage, drew a larger than usual turnout.
Hundreds of demonstrators, including prominent lawmakers, were arrested at a peaceful sit-in in Hong Kong early Wednesday, following a huge rally calling for democracy in the Chinese territory. Large crowds had turned out for a 5 km march through the city's central business district Tuesday, in a massive show of defiance against Beijing's vision for the city's political future. Police said 98,600 people took part in the march, while organizers said 510,000 participated. Statisticians from the University of Hong Kong estimated the turnout as between 154,000 and 172,000. At the end of the rally, student activist groups held illegal sit-ins at two locations, at Chater Road in the heart of the business district, and outside the office of Hong Kong Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying. @highlight Huge crowds march in Hong Kong calling for democracy on the anniversary of handover @highlight 511 protesters arrested at illegal sit-in following the march, say police @highlight An annual event, the march is especially charged this year amid a heated political climate @highlight Pro-democracy activists are threatening to "occupy" downtown if calls are not heard

They're showered with gifts wherever they go but not all the items presented to the Royal Family are quite what most would imagine. Among the more unusual items lavished on the royals, which were revealed in a list released by Buckingham Palace, were tins of tuna, model missiles and a supermarket's worth of mangoes. Many of the mangoes were presented to Prince Andrew, who is famously fond of the fruit, although Princess Anne was also given a box of 100 by the president of Pakistan, Mamnoon Hussain.

By David Martosko, U.s. Political Editor PUBLISHED: 15:21 EST, 25 November 2013 | UPDATED: 07:20 EST, 26 November 2013 During a token policy appearance Monday in San Francisco, President Obama railed against Republicans for standing in the way of his 'comprehensive' immigration reform plans that would extend an amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants. 'We've got to finish the job,' Obama said, referring to bipartisan legislation that passed the U.S. Senate in June but has long stalled in the House. 'It is long past time to reform an immigration system that doesn't serve America as well as it should,' he told a crowd estimated at 600.
