• Al Jazeera English - Europe - EU angered over Iran trial threat: European Union nations are considering recalling their ambassadors to Iran after it was suggested that local British embassy staff would face trial over their alleged role in protests over the disputed presidential election. Foreign ministries from across the 27-nation bloc reportedly summoned Iran's ambassadors on Friday to protest over the comments by Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati, the head of Iran's powerful Guardian Council. At least nine Iranians working for the British embassy in Tehran have been detained since mass protests broke out after defeated presidential candidates complained that the results of the June 12 poll was rigged. A spokeswoman for Britain's foreign office said on Friday that two staff were still being held the Iranian authorities. An EU official told news agencies that the bloc had agreed to take a gradual approach towards Tehran, that could include visa bans and withdrawal of EU ambassadors.

• Hungary?s lawmakers rejected constitutional amendments to make Holocaust denial a punishable offense.: Some local Jewish community leaders believe that Monday's vote secured the first parliamentary victory for Jobbik, a rapidly rising local neo-Nazi movement widely predicted to win several seats in the national elections due within a year. The proposals, put forth by the ruling Socialist caretaker government, attracted fewer than half the votes needed to adopt a constitutional amendment. The frequently populist, ultra-Conserva tive Fidesz opposition party rejected the proposals along with the neo-Liberal Free Democrats, the erstwhile coalition partners of the Socialists. The Association of Hungarian Jewish Religious Communities, or Mazsihisz has not issued an official comment. A commentary published on the Mazsihisz Web site by Tamas Palmai says many believe that Fidesz turned down the reforms for fear of provoking the wrath of Jobbik. Holocaust denial is outlawed in many countries which, like Hungary, were occupied by the Nazis during WW2

That night, she swaggered onstage in front of the friendliest crowd ever, warmed up by Rudy Giuliani and Mike Huckabee, and blasted the media for daring to want to know who she was, what she'd done and what she stood for. Well, now we know. And it turns out that ten months ago, she was full of it."
