 No good deed goes unpunished.  A Florida sea tow captain saved a man from a burning ship only to be shoved overboard and have his boat stolen. This shocking incident occurred near Marco Island on March 6th. On that date, a call went out regarding a burning boat. The captain of a sea tow boat heard the distress call and rushed to provide aid. He was able to quickly locate the burning boat and  discovered 40-year-old, Ryan Deiter, and his dog onboard the burning ship. Wasting no time, the captain of the sea tow boat was able to maneuver alongside the distressed boat and begin efforts to extricate Deiter and his dog from the doomed vessel.  Eventually, the sea tow captain was able to pull both Deiter and his dog onboard the tow boat. However, once Deiter was pulled to safety, he repaid a stranger's kindness with treachery.  Deiter shoved the captain from his own boat and fled the scene in the stolen boat, leaving the man who had just risked his own vessel and life...

CONGO, M23 DELEGATIONS LEAVE DOHA AS PEACE TALKS STALL - SOURCES. (PHOTO).


 Congo, M23 delegations leave Doha as peace talks stall - sources


Delegations representing Congo's government and Rwanda-backed M23 rebels have left peace talks in Qatar with no immediate plans to return, sources from both camps told Reuters, after making no significant progress towards a ceasefire.


M23 has staged an unprecedented advance since January, seizing eastern Congo's two largest cities and raising fears of an all-out regional war.


As African mediation efforts faltered, Qatar last month brokered a surprise sit-down between Congolese President Felix Tshisekedi and Rwandan President Paul Kagame during which the two leaders called for a ceasefire.


That was meant to lead to direct talks this month between the Democratic Republic of Congo and M23. But while the two sides sent delegations to Doha, the meetings quickly bogged down on technical details and potential confidence-building measures such as the release of Congo-held prisoners accused of links to Rwanda and M23, the sources said.


Sources from both sides said M23 had demanded the release of hundreds of prisoners, which the Congolese government refused.


"They are asking for too much. They don't even control two of the 26 provinces," a government source said.


"Hundreds of prisoners, charges dropped, convictions overturned - our justice system is independent. We cannot give in to every whim. Crimes have been committed. Some people must pay," the government source added.


A source from the rebel coalition that includes M23 also said that all parties had left Doha after "prerequisites" proved to be an insurmountable "stumbling block" to substantive talks.


Beyond ending legal proceedings against its members, the source said M23 wants Tshisekedi to commit to a political dialogue.


Tshisekedi long rejected the idea of sitting down with M23, branding it a group of terrorists.


A United Nations source told Reuters on Wednesday that fighting had resumed in the territory of Walikale.


M23 withdrew from Walikale town, a strategic mining hub, earlier this month, a move it described as a goodwill gesture ahead of planned peace talks with the government.


The fighting in eastern Congo this year has resulted in thousands of deaths and forced hundreds of thousands more people from their homes.
