Soldier May Be The First To Be Executed In 20 Years
Airman Robert Gay, 28, of Detroit, a security policeman at Holloman Air Force Base New Mexico, was sentenced to death by a 10 member Air Force jury for the Aug. 2 killings of his supervisor and another unarmed officer. The case would mark the first U.S. military execution in 20 years. Sentences will be appealed through military and civilian courts, with possible years of delay before any method of execution is set. Gay is to be moved to Fort Leavenworth, joining other death row inmates. No current execution regulations exist.

Explosion Kills Three Iraqis in Beirut Embassy Crash
Police and rescuers recovered three bodies and six survivors from the rubble of Iraq's demolished Beirut embassy. Iraqi Ambassador Lafla remained missing. The five story building was leveled Tuesday by a high risk blast possibly caused by a car bomb. Anonymous calls from Kurdish and Iraqi liberation groups claimed responsibility, though no group had been previously known. The attack drew rival accounts from Lebanese officials and sparked questions about regional blame.
