WORLD IN BRIEF

Hurricane Maria slams Dominica,
now menaces Puerto Rico
ROSEAU, Dominica — Hurricane Maria smashed into Domi-
nica with 160 mph winds, ripping the roof off even the prime min-
ister’s residence and causing what he called “mind-boggling” dev-
astation Tuesday as it plunged into a Caribbean region already
ravaged by Hurricane Irma.
The storm was on a track to wallop Puerto Rico on Wednesday
“with a force and violence that we haven’t seen for several genera-
tions,” the territory’s governor said.
Dominica Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit said on his Face-
book page that “initial reports are of widespread devastation” and
said he feared there would be deaths due to rain-fed landslides.
“So far the winds have swept away the roofs of almost every
person I have spoken to or otherwise made contact with,” Sker-
rit wrote. “The roof to my own official residence was among the
first to go.”
And he appealed for international aid:
“We will need help, my friend, we will need help of all kinds.”
Maria’s eye roared over the island late Monday night. The
storm briefly dipped to Category 4 strength early Tuesday before
regaining Category 5 status.
Fierce winds and rain lashed mountainous Dominica for hours.
A police official on the island, Inspector Pellam Jno Baptiste, said
late Monday night that there were no immediate reports of casual-
ties but it was too dangerous for officers to check conditions.
At UN, Trump threatens ‘total
destruction’ of North Korea
UNITED NATIONS — President Donald Trump, in a com-
bative debut speech to the U.N. General Assembly, threatened the
“total destruction’” of North Korea if it does not abandon its drive
toward nuclear weapons.
Trump, who has ramped up his rhetoric throughout the esca-
lating crisis with North Korea, told the murmuring crowd at the
U.N. on Tuesday that “it is far past time for the nations of the world
to confront” Kim Jong Un and said that Kim’s “reckless pursuit
of nuclear weapons” poses a threat to “the entire world with an
unthinkable loss of human life.
“Rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself and his regime,”
Trump said about the North Korean leader. He said of the U.S.: “If
it is forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but
to totally destroy North Korea.”
Elected on the nationalist slogan “America First,” Trump
argued that individual nations should act in their own self-inter-
est, yet rally together when faced with a common threat. Using
bellicose language rare for an U.S. president at the rostrum of the
United Nations, Trump touched upon hot spots around the globe,
declaring “The scourge of our planet is a group of rogue regimes.”
He urged nations to join together to stop Iran’s nuclear pro-
gram — he declared the deal to restrain it an “embarrassment” for
the United States — and defeat “loser terrorists” who have struck
violence across the globe. He denounced “radical Islamic terror-
ism,” the inflammatory label he has recently shied away from.
He warned that some violence-plagued portions of the world “are
going to hell.” And he made little mention of Russia.
Under fire over Rohingya, Suu
Kyi defends Myanmar actions
NAYPYITAW, Myanmar — With a mass exodus of Rohingya
Muslims sparking accusations of ethnic cleansing from the United
Nations and others, Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi on Tues-
day said her country does not fear international scrutiny and invited
diplomats to see some areas for themselves.
Though an estimated 421,000 Rohingya have fled to Bangla-
desh in less than a month as their villages burned and hundreds
were killed, Suu Kyi said the “great majority” of Muslims within
the conflict zone stayed and that “more than 50 percent of their vil-
lages were intact.”
The Nobel Peace laureate’s global image has been damaged
by violence since Rohingya insurgents attacked Myanmar secu-
rity forces on Aug. 25. Rohingya fled their villages in the military
crackdown that followed, and many of their villages have been
burned. The government has blamed the Rohingya themselves, but
members of the persecuted minority have said soldiers and Bud-
dhist mobs attacked them.
Suui Kyi’s first address to the nation since the violence erupted
came days after she canceled plans to attend the U.N. General
Assembly, a decision widely seen as a response to international
criticism.
Suu Kyi said anyone found to have broken the law would be
punished. “Human rights violations and all other acts that impair
stability and harmony and undermine the rule of law will be

addressed in accordance with strict laws and justice,” she said.
Rohingya Muslims being
wiped off Myanmar’s map
YANGON, Myanmar — For generations, Rohingya Muslims
have called Myanmar home. Now, in what appears to be a system-
atic purge, the minority ethnic group is, quite literally, being wiped
off the map.
After a series of attacks by Muslim militants last month, secu-
rity forces and allied mobs retaliated by burning down thousands
of Rohingya homes in the predominantly Buddhist nation.
More than 500,000 people — roughly half their population —
have fled to neighboring Bangladesh in the past year, most of them
in the last three weeks.
And they are still leaving, piling into wooden boats that take
them to sprawling, monsoon-drenched refugee camps in Bangla-
desh. Their plight has been decried as ethnic cleansing by U.N.
Secretary General Antonio Guterres. And despite assurances Tues-
day by Myanmar’s leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, few believe they
will ever be welcomed back.
“This is the worst crisis in Rohingya history,” said Chris Lewa,
founder of the Arakan Project, which works to improve conditions
for the ethnic minority, citing the monumental size and speed of the
exodus. “Security forces have been burning villages one by one, in
a very systematic way. And it’s still ongoing.”
GOP governors get
into the ‘news’ business
ATLANTA — Republican governors are getting into what
appears to be the “news” business.
The Republican Governors Association has quietly launched an
online publication that looks like a media outlet and is branded as
such on social media.
The Free Telegraph launched in the summer bearing no
acknowledgment it was a product of an official party committee
whose sole purpose is to get more Republicans elected to office.
Only after The Associated Press inquired about the site was a dis-
closure added to The Free Telegraph’s pages identifying its parti-
san source.
Critics included some Republicans. They say the website
pushes the limits of honest campaign tactics in an era of increas-
ingly partisan media and a proliferation of “fake news” sites.
More protests set for today after
quiet night in St. Louis
ST. LOUIS — Protesters chanting “free our people” gathered
outside the jail in downtown St. Louis for more than two hours to
show solidarity with those who remain behind bars, but there was
no repeat of the vandalism that occurred over the weekend.
Demonstrators outside the jail Monday night criticized authori-
ties for keeping some of those arrested in jail nearly 24 hours after

they were taken into custody. Police said more than 120 people
were arrested during Sunday’s protests over the acquittal of a white
former police officer in the killing of a black suspect.
Some of those jailed were released Monday evening before
organizers announced an end to the demonstration and told people
to go home. Organizers said protests will resume today, but they
gave no details.
Monday was the fourth day of protests.
Three days of peaceful protests and three nights of vandal-
ism followed Friday’s announcement that a judge found ex-offi-
cer Jason Stockley not guilty in the 2011 death of Anthony Lamar
Smith.
3 arrested during protest at
Georgia Tech after vigil
ATLANTA — Three people were arrested Monday night during
a protest after a vigil for a Georgia Tech student who was fatally
shot by campus police, a university spokesman said.
Police shot and killed Scout Schultz late Saturday night after
the 21-year-old student called 911 to report an armed and possi-
bly intoxicated suspicious person, the Georgia Bureau of Investi-
gation has said.
Georgia Tech sent out alerts urging students to shelter indoors
Monday night and lock doors and windows because of violent
protests. Video posted on social media showed a police vehicle
burning in the street and officers pinning people to the ground as
onlookers shouted at them.
After a peaceful vigil, about 50 protesters marched to the cam-
pus police department, university spokesman Lance Wallace said.
A police vehicle was damaged and two officers suffered minor
injuries, with one taken to a hospital for treatment.
Police restored order relatively quickly, and three people were
arrested and charged with inciting a riot and battery of an officer,
Wallace said.
Haitians blocked at US border
find ‘Mexican dream’
TIJUANA, Mexico — Jose Luis Millan found a new crop of
star employees at an upscale Tijuana car wash where customers
cross the border from the U.S. to pay up to $950 to have their prized
possessions steamed and scrubbed for hours. They’re never late,
always hustle and come in on days off to learn new skills, traits that
he says make them a model for their Mexican counterparts.
They are among several thousand Haitians who came to Mex-
ico’s northwest corner hoping to cross the border before the U.S.
abruptly closed its doors last year. The Mexican government has
welcomed them, with a visa program that helps them fill the need
for labor in Tijuana’s growing economy.
In a country whose population is 1 percent black, Tijuana’s Hai-
tians stand out. They share tight living quarters, sending much of
their meager wages to support family in Haiti. Haitians earn far less
than they would in the United States but enough to forsake the risk
of getting deported by heading north.
