With soaring rhetoric and adoring crowds, Barack Obama has now demonstrated support from all elements of the Democratic Party. The current front-runner is now under scrutiny as never before.

Also, competing funerals in Beirut, and the US criticized China for creating space debris by destroying a satellite.  Now it's reported that the US plans to shoot down one of its own.
