Stealing food if one is poor and hungry is not a crime, according to an incredible ruling from Italy's Supreme Court of Cassation.  Justices not only threw out the conviction of a homeless man who was caught trying to take about AU$5 worth of cheese and sausage from a grocery store in Genoa - but they also vacated his punishment of six months in jail and a 100 Euro fine.  It falls just short of establishing a new legal precedent of personal survival outweighing property rights, but the court's rulings are traditionally influential throughout the Italian law and order system.  The case drew comparisons to the story of Jean Valjean, the hero of Victor Hugo's Les Miserables - which taught us that there are much worse things than stealing food.

Rescuers pulled a six-month old baby girl out from under a collapsed building in Nairobi, Kenya.  Officials say 93 people are still missing after the tower came down in heavy rain last week, and 23 people are confirmed dead - one of them, the child's mother.  The little girl survived because the collapsed walls formed an air pocket around her bed.  "She only cried when she was rescued from the debris," said disaster coordinator Pius Masai, "Otherwise she had not made noise or given any indication that she was there."  The owner of the building is under arrest and facing charges because it was constructed illegally and had no permits for occupation.

Kenya says it foiled an plot by an unnamed Islamic State affiliate to launch a massive anthrax attack.  Police accuse a medical intern named Mohammed Abdi Ali of recruiting terrorists and "planning large-scale attacks akin to the Westgate Mall attack" during which 67 people were killed.  Ali's wife was taken into custody in Uganda, and associates - also hospital workers - have reportedly gone into hiding.

An Islamic State sniper killed a US Navy Seal in a battle at a Kurdish outpost in northern Iraq.  "It was an orchestrated attack with shots and multiple IEDs going off," said a US official who asked to remain anonymous.  The Seal is the third American to be killed in direct combat since a US-led coalition launched a campaign in 2014 to "degrade and destroy" Islamic State.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov says the truce in the Syrian Civil war is being extended to Aleppo, where hundreds have died in fighting between rebels and government troops in recent days.  Before he spoke, rebel rocket fire killed 19 people in government-controlled areas, including three at a hospital.

A court in Jerusalem sentenced a Jewish settler to life plus twenty years in prison for the murder of a Palestinian teen.  Prosecutors said Yosef Haim Ben David did "irreparable harm" to the youth's family and to the State of Israel.  In 2014, Ben David and two teenage accomplices kidnapped 16-year-old Mohammed Abu Khdeir in East Jerusalem, took him to a small forest, and set him on fire in retaliation for the murders of three Jewish teens - a vile act in a chain of events that led to the highly destructive Gaza war.

A German comedian is blasting Chancellor Angela Merkel for "serving me up for tea" to Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, over a mocking poem about the Turkish leader he read on German TV.  Jan Boehmermann told Die Zeit newspaper that "the chancellor must not wobble when it comes to freedom of speech".  Instead, Merkel acceded to the demands of Erdogan and allowed prosecutors and courts decide whether Boehmermann had insulted a foreign head of state.  Germany and the EU desperately need Turkey to stop the refugees from the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia after more than a million arrived in Europe since the beginning of last year.  Erdogan is notoriously thin-skinned when it comes to any form of criticism (possibly because of that time he was stomped in the balls by a horse), and currently has taken legal action against more than a thousand dissenters in Turkey.

The trial of Argentina's former Air Force chief has begun in Buenos Aires.  90-year old Brigadier Omar Graffigna is accused of directing the disappearances of Leftists and political opponents of the fascist dictatorship of the 1970s and '80s.  He's specifically accused in the case of activists Jose Manuel Perez Rojo and his pregnant wife  Patricia Roisinblit, who went missing in 1978 - it's believed she was kept alive long enough to give birth to a son, who was given to a military family to raise.  The boy, Guillermo, was eventually reunited with his family despite the death threats made by the now-estranged adoptive father.  Rights groups say 30,000 people went missing and were presumed killed by the US-backed dictatorship. 

In US politics, fascist demagogue Donald Trump suggested that the Cuban father of his rival Sen. Ted Cruz was involved in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963.  Ultra-conservative religious dominionist zealot Cruz claimed that Trump had bragged of catching sexually-transmitted diseases.  Neither claim is true, and if either one of these morons is elected President of the United States of America, the world is doomed.  The two compete in the Indiana Primary today, and it is very likely that the results will put Trump within a stone's throw of the Republican Party presidential nomination.
