The AP reports Tanzi also flew clergy and politicians on his fleet, including Cardinal Agostino Casaroli and other officials, amid a widening scandal surrounding misappropriated company funds.

Iraq announced a sweeping purge of Baath party members from public posts. Ahmad Chalabi rejected reconciliation with former Baathists, saying 28,000 have been removed and a similar number will follow. He framed the effort as cleansing ideology, not revenge, even at the cost of experience.
