Strifes will arise through the period. Watch for them near the Davis
Strait [between Greenland and Canada] in the attempts there for the
keeping of the life line to land open. Watch for them in Libya and in
Egypt, in ANKARA and in Syria, through the straits about those areas
above Australia, in the Indian Ocean and the Persian Gulf.

Istanbul, (Turkey): A bomb exploded on Sunday night in Istanbul,
wounding at least 30 people, two of them seriously.
The casualties, in the Bakirkoy neighborhood in the western part of the
city, included three police officers. The blast occurred at about 1900
hrs, IST (noon EDT, 0400 hrs, GMT) along a pedestrian mall in a
shopping area.
According to The Associated Press, police said they suspected the blast
was caused by a percussion grenade, a type of explosive that usually
makes a loud noise but causes limited damage.
The Anatolia news agency reported that the bomb was left in a trash
container.
Television footage from the site showed shattered glass scattered along
a sidewalk, while armed police tried to restore order. At least one
policeman was seen firing in the air, but the reason was not
immediately clear.
