The UN is warning that Europe is "on the cusp of a largely self-induced humanitarian crisis" because of a rapid build-up of migrants on Greece's borders, caused by factors totally outside Athens' control.  Greece has 24,000 refugees from Middle Eastern wars in immediate need of housing, more than 8,000 of them on the northern frontier which was closed by Macedonia.  "The crowded conditions are leading to shortages of food, shelter, water and sanitation," said UN refugee agency (UNHCR) spokesman Adrian Edwards.  Many refuse to leave for fear of losing their place in queue to continue their journeys north.

Germany's highest court is considering banning a far rightwing anti-immigrant party.  Upper house lawmakers raised the case, claiming that the National Democratic Party (NPD) is racist and anti-Semitic, and poses a threat to Germany's democratic order.  A previous attempt to ban the NDP failed for lack of evidence in 2003, but this time around there's more of a track record of the party's involvement in "anti-Islamization" marches by the right-wing Pegida organization, based in Dresden.  Only two parties have been banned in postwar Germany, both back in the 1950s.

An Islamic State suicide bomber killed an Iraqi army general and nine other troops in an attack on a base near Haditha in the western part of the country.  It's the latest in a rash of IS suicide bombings in Iraq that have killed more than 110 people in recent days.

Osama bin Laden left a personal fortune of around US$29 Millionto be used for global jihad, according to a cache of documents released by the US.  His will also contained specific instructions about caring for his family, indicating that he was aware that his end could be near - which it was, when US President Barack Obama sent in the Navy Seals to kill his ass in May 2011.  The will referred to the money as being in Sudan, but it is not clear if it is in teh form of cash, assets, in a bank, in a safe-house, or if any of it made its way to his heirs.

Japan for the first time has compensated a former prisoner of war who was held in a camp near Nagasaki when the Atom Bomb was dropped in last days of World war II.  95-year old Willy Buchel of the Netherlands claimed he suffered mental anguish and the "peculiar health damage caused by his exposure to radiation", but did not receive the same compensation that Japan gave to its citizens in the region.  Tokyo cut a cheque for just more than AU$13,400.  Japan didn't start to compensate overseas atom bomb victims with medical allowances until 2003.

Nepal is extending climbing permits to people prevented from scaling Mount Everest because of last year's killer earthquakes.  This covers some 800 foreign climbers had paid more than AU$15,000 for expedition permits.  Climbing season starts later this month and Nepal is eager to boost its tourism sector which tanked after the quakes.

The Rolling Stones will play a free concert in Havana, Cuba later this month, giving Cubans their chance to turn the page on the Cold War with the United States and see how the Cold War between Mick and Keith is going.  The Stones say it will be the first concert by a British band in the Cuban capital.  The Havana gig on 25 March will come three days after US President Barack Obama visits.
