Tuesday, June 26, 2012 – Daily News Arizona law WASHINGTON (AP) — A divided Supreme Court threw out major parts of Arizona's tough crackdown on illegal immigrants Monday in a ruling sure to reverberate through the November elections. The justices unanimously approved the law's most-discussed provision — requiring police to check the immi- gration status of those they stop for other reasons — but limited the conse- quences. Court voids most of WORLD BRIEFING Syrian Hispanics resent what they see as racial and social over- tones in some Republicans' denunciations of people who crossed the Mexican border illegally. Al-Qaida- trained soldiers defect The mixed outcome vindicated the Obama administration's aggres- sive challenge to laws passed by Arizona and the five states — Alabama, Georgia, Indiana, South Carolina and Utah — that followed its lead in attempting to deal with illegal immigration in the face of federal inaction on comprehensive reform. The administration had assailed the Arizona law as an unconstitutional intrusion into an area under federal control. Justice Anthony the ''show me your papers'' requirement, which some critics say could lead to ethnic pro- filing, the justices struck down provisions that cre- ated state crimes allowing local police to arrest peo- ple for federal immigra- tion violations. And they warned against detaining people for any prolonged period merely for not hav- ing proper immigration papers. Although upholding Kennedy, joined in his majority opinion by con- servative Chief Justice John Roberts as well as three liberal justices, said the impasse in Washing- ton over immigration reform did not justify state intrusion. Ruling hurts Romney's bid to focus on Hispanics WASHINGTON (AP) — Mitt Romney wants to improve his troubled stand- ing among Hispanic voters while saying as little as pos- sible about immigration. Events keep working against him. attack on West STOCKHOLM (AP) — A Norwegian man has received terrorist training from al-Qaida's offshoot in Yemen and is awaiting orders to carry out an attack on the West, officials from three European security agencies told The Asso- ciated Press on Monday. Western intelligence long Norwegian is ready for officials have The Supreme Court's ruling Monday on Ari- zona's immigration law, coming 10 days after Presi- dent Barack Obama's announcement that allows some illegal immigrants to stay in the country, is the lat- est instance. Romney's cau- tious comments on the court decision underscored his discomfort with a topic that squeezes him between con- flicting goals. He needs to fire up his conservative base, where anti-immigration senti- ments run strong. But Rom- ney also needs to reduce Obama's sizeable advan- tage among Hispanic vot- ers. Immigration is certainly not the only issue that mat- ters to Hispanics, and Rom- ney is trying to appeal to them by focusing on the economy. That's their No. 1 issue, as it is with other voter groups.

Officials from three European security agen- cies confirmed Monday the man is ''opera- tional,'' meaning he has completed his training and is about to receive a target. All spoke on con- dition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case publicly. They declined to name the man, who has not been accused of a crime. ''We believe he is operational and he is probably about to get his target,'' one security official said. ''And that target is probably in the West.'' A security official in a second European country confirmed the information, adding: ''From what I under- stand, a specific target has not been estab- lished.'' regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad suffered an embarrassing string of high- ranking defections, with dozens of soldiers, includ- ing senior officers, reported to have fled to neighboring Turkey, officials said Mon- day. to Turkey BEIRUT (AP) — The in the region when Turkey's deputy prime minister said Syrian forces opened fire on a second Turkish plane that was searching for the wreckage of a jet shot down last week by Damascus.

According to a Turkish Tropical Storm Debby George Island, a vacation spot along the Florida Pan- handle, was closed to every- one except residents, renters and business owners to keep looters out. The island had no power, and palm trees had been blown down, but roads were passable. ''Most true islanders are hanging in there because they know that you may or may not be able to get back to your home when you need to,'' said David Walk- er, an island resident having a beer at Eddy Teach's bar.

(AP) — A severely mal- nourished 10-year-old Kansas City girl who was found locked in a closet remained hospitalized Monday and likely faces an extended recovery after an initial ''failure to thrive'' diagnosis, experts said. Police found the 32- pound girl Friday after responding to a call from a child abuse hotline. She was taken to Children's Mercy Hospital on Friday and remained there Monday, said Mike Mansur, spokesman for the Jackson County prosecutor's office. He said the child's condi- tion hasn't been released. ''The next few months of her life are going to be pret- ty critical to her recovery,'' said Ann Thomas, a vice president at The Children's Place, a Kansas City non- profit that is not involved in this case but treats young children who have experi- enced trauma. The child's 29-year-old mother appeared in Jackson County court Monday. She was shackled at the wrists and quietly listened as a judge read the felony charges against her.
