President Obama’s most senior aide has warned there will be no decision on more troops for Afghanistan until there’s a credible government in Kabul. In a CNN interview, the White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel said it will be reckless to decide before Mr. Obama was satisfied that there was an Afghan government that could work effectively with the United States. Mr. Emanuel said a credible outcome to Afghanistan's disputed presidential election was vital.

"What President Karzai must do, you know, the process there, is a credible and legitimate election or result, more importantly, for the Afghan people and for that government going forward. Whether that's through a run-off, whether that's through negotiations, the process will be determined by the Afghan people. The result for us and for the president is whether, in fact, there is a credible government and a legitimate process, the Afghan people then think, this has worked, it’s processed through."

As fighting continues in the Pakistani army’s offensive against al-Qaeda and Taliban strongholds in South Waziristan, there are conflicting reports of casualties. Each side is saying the other has suffered heavy losses. Shoaid Pasan reports from Pakistan.

Fierce fighting is continuing as Taliban militants stand firm against the security forces in South Waziristan. A Taliban spokesman told the BBC that the militants had not conceded one inch of territory to the army. He also said dozens of soldiers have been killed while the militants have suffered few casualties. The army denies this and says scores of militants have been killed. Locals say both sides are not coming clean with the numbers.

Iran says five commanders of the Revolutionary Guards as well as senior tribal leaders were among around 30 people killed in an attack in the country’s southeast. Iranian state media said suicide bombers targeted a meeting between the Guards and tribal leaders in the province of Sistan-Baluchestan bordering Pakistan. Iran says a Sunni militant group Jundullah claimed responsibility for the attack. In the Iranian parliament, the speaker Ali Larijani condemned the bombing.

Those dear people were working hard to restore security in Sistan-Baluchestan, and such behaviour is aimed at preventing economic progress there. The Revolutionary Guards will definitely redouble their efforts in order to restore security and ensure the province’s progress.

The British driver Jenson Button has won the 2009 Formula 1 title. He came 5th in the Brazilian Grand Prix, and that gave him enough points for the championship title. The race was won by the Australian driver Mark Webber. Gary Duffy reports

Jenson Button has started 14th on the grade after a disappointing qualifying run. But when the day was over he was world champion. By contrast, the Brazilian driver Rubens Barrichello had started the race in poor position but finished in the disappointing 8th place. There was an element of luck and a lot of skill involved in Button’s victory. An early collision between two other drivers are lightened to move quickly up the field while a punctured tire helped to thwart the hopes of Rubens Barrichello.

“你知道，按照程序，卡尔扎伊总统需要做的是，可靠的，合法的选举或结果。更重要的是，能够使阿富汗人民和阿富汗政府进步。无论是通过决定性选举，还是通过谈判，该过程都要由阿富汗人民来决定。对我们和总统来说的结果是，政府是否可靠，程序是否合法。阿富汗人民就会认为，这是通过合法程序的。”

英国赛车手Jenson Button赢得了2009年的F1冠军头衔。他在F1方程式大奖赛巴西站比赛中排在第五名，有足够分数来角逐冠军宝座。赢得巴西站冠军的是澳大利亚车手Mark Webber。Gary Duffy报道。
