Afghan insider attack kills our Americans President will declare move at campaign stop in Ohio WASHINGTON (AP) - Presi- dent Barack Obama will launch a new trade enforcement case against China Monday, usingthe power of incumbency tocounter Republican Mitt Romney's criti- cism that he is ceding American jobs to the Asian power. Senior administration offi- cials said the president will announce the new case, tar- geting Chinese subsidies for exports of automobiles and automobile parts, Monday dur- ing a campaign trip to Ohio. The swingstate has a large manufac- turing base where many blame China for depressing its indus- try. Obama and Romney have both pushed China - and through it, the economy - to the forefront of the White House race as they seek to refocus after a week dominated by foreign policy and the turbulent events at U.S. embassies throughout the Middle East. Romney has accused Obama of being weak on China to the detriment of U.S. workers. The president countered with claims that Romney has investments in Chinese companies and out- sourced jobs to China while run- ning the private equity firm Bain Capital. On Monday, with both candi- dates returning to the campaign trail after a weekend out of the spotlight, Obama will try to gain the upper hand in the debate. Officials said the adminis- tration will launch enforce- ment action at the World Trade Organization because it says China is illegally subsidizing exports in their autos and auto parts sectors. The U.S. says the practice puts American parts manufacturers at a competitive disadvantage and encourages the outsourcing of production to China. The officials requested ano- nymity because they were not authorized to discuss the trade action publicly ahead of the president. The administration is taking the issue to the WTO because its attempts to get China to address the subsidies on its own have been unsuccessful, the officials said. Jobs in the U.S. auto parts sector dropped by roughly half between 2001 and 2010, while U.S. imports of auto parts from China. have increased seven- fold, according to the Obama The iceon FREE GRAD PRACTICE TESTS MCAT 10/0612012 LSAT 10/06/2012 GRE 10/06/2012 GMAT 10/06/2012 Try an MCAT, LSAT, GMAT or GRE Free Practice Test and receive a detailed score breakdown to see how you would do on the actual test! ra oewamueee eeenk, administration. The administration is also escalating another case it brought against China at the WTO in July that accuses China of imposing unfair duties on more than $3 billion in exports of U.S. autos. The duties cover more than 80 percent of Ameri- can auto exports to China, said the officials. The cases stem from the Interagency Trade Enforcement Center Obama set up earlier this year to target unfair practices around the world, particularly in China. NATO airstrike kills 8 local women as U.S. withdraws KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) - Afghan police killed four Ameri- can soldiers coming to their aid after a checkpoint attack Sunday, the third assault by government forces or insurgents disguised in military uniforms in as many days. The escalating violence - including a NATO airstrike that killed eight Afghan women and girls gathering firewood - is straining the military partner- ship between Kabul and NATO as the U.S. begins to withdraw thou- sands of troops sent three years ago to route the Taliban from southern strongholds. The attacks drew unusually strong criticism Sunday from the U.S. military's top officer, Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, who called the problem of rogue Afghan soldiers and police turn- ing their guns on allied troops "a very serious threat" to the war effort. This year, 51 international ser- vice members have died at the hands of their Afghan allies or those who have infiltrated their ranks. At least 12 such attacks came in August alone, leaving 15 dead. The surge in insider attacks is a sign of how security has deterio- rated as NATO prepares its mili- tary exit from Afghanistan by the end of 2014. The U.S. is days away from completing the first stage of its own drawdown, withdrawing 33,000 troops that were part of a military surge three years ago. The U.S. will remain with about 68,000 troops at the end of Sep- tember. NATO and U.S. forces are working with the Afghan gov- ernment to tighten vetting pro- cedures and increase security between the forces, but nothing has so far been able to stem the attacks on troops, which NATO frequently asserts are standing "shoulder by shoulder." In unusually blunt remarks to the Pentagon's own news service, the American Forces Press Ser- vice, Dempsey said the Afghan government needs to take the problem as seriously as do U.S. commanders and officials. "We're all seized with (the) problem," said Dempsey, after discussing the issue at a meet- ing in Romania with NATO offi- cials. "You can't whitewash it. We can't convince ourselves that we just have to work harder to get through it. Something has to change." "We have to get on top of this. It is a very serious threat to the campaign." A weekend of deadly attacks began Friday night, when 15 insurgents disguised in U.S. army uniforms killed two Marines, wounded nine other people and destroyed six Harrier fighter jets at a major U.S. base in the south, military officials said. On Satur- day, agunman in the uniform of a government-backed militia force shot dead two British soldiers in Helmand province in the south- west.
