services diagnosed as scabies, social services failed in such a shocking way that nobody would visit Victoria Climbie because they were afraid that they would catch scabies, despite the fact that the injuries were third degree burns. Now we hear about another child ONLY 18 MONTHS OLD who was killed in very mysterious circumstances (missing toenails etc) less than 5 miles from where Victoria climbie was murdered? Why don't people such as the people listed below have anything to say on this matter? INCLUDING BARBIE who is a trainee social worker.

My hubby and I went out tonight and I had to use the restroom.. Well, there was a t.v. in there and it was on a news channel, I think it was Nancy Grace.. Anyways, she was talking about this mother who left her children in the car and it was very hot outside and she left the windows up.. Well anyways the kids were almost dead and she took them home, gave tehm a bath and dressed them in clean clothes and threw them in a garbage bag... And they died.. Has anyone else heard about this? I have been searching the web and watching all the news channels and can't find any thing about this... Did you hear about it? If so where did this happen? And no, this is not a joke question.. It just sickens me to death that someone can and will do something like this..

Saddam Hussein's hanging was show on television, but I hear that it was a hoax and that it was his body double that has been hung. There are still videos of him speaking to supporters still, even though he is supposedly dead. He also always had many body doubles for security purposes. Do you think he is alive or dead?

The dollar is weak and growing weaker as the FED showers the world with money! Big business with the support of our government has exported our good jobs, factories and industries to countries that pay a fraction of the wages paid in the USA. These same American traitors have permitted a huge illegal immigration which has further eroded our wage base in the USA. The FED in unison with big business created the housing and mortgage mess we are engaged in! Hell, Americans are not even good consumers anymore choosing to accept a negative savings rate and a declining standard of living as our future legacy. Not much left except to cut each others grass, and dine on a Big Mac while shopping for foreign goods at Walmart.

Our military machine is still a powerhouse capable of killing an unseen enemy 24/7 with the the flick of a finger. Unfortunately, it is largely a mercenary army comprised of all volunteers and paid professionals. We are as Rome was on the eve of her demise!

On 9/11 the south tower of the WTC burned for just 56 minutes before collapsing, while the north tower lasted around an hour and 45 minutes. According to the official transcripts of the firefighter tapes, fires in both towers were almost out immediately before the collapses.

The saving grace that could have prevented Deutsche Bank from imploding may have been the fact that it was not hit by a plane, as the twin towers were on 9/11.

However, the absence of a jet strike wasn't enough to prevent WTC 7 from crumbling into its own footprint within 7 seconds later that fateful afternoon.

"I remember getting a call from the...er...fire department commander, telling me that they were not sure they were gonna be able to contain the fire, and I said, 'You know we've had such terrible loss of life, maybe the smartest thing to do is pull it.' And they made that decision to pull and we watched the building collapse."

surely you guys didn't think a team of demolition experts could go in that same day, while the building is on fire, and plant explosives.
here is a clip of john kerry admitting they pulled building 7
if you notice, in the beginning he lies by saying ," well, thats a new one to me." then later just a few minutes later he states, "I do know that, that wall was in danger, and they made a decision based on the danger. that it had of destroying other things that they did it in a controlled fashion."

Those who read the Mirror forums will probably have already read my postings on this, but I have posted an addition to my original theory.

I think that while everyone is focusing on the 'missing hour' of 9 - 10pm and wondering where everyone was and what they were doing, we are missing out on another vital hour.

That of 10pm - 11pm.

Why?

Because Kate raised the alarm at 10pm, however the police werent called till 10:40pm and didnt arrive till nearly 11pm!

And the beauty of it, not one of the Tapas 9 (except Gerry and Kate) need to have an alibi. Thats because they are all off searching for Madeleine. So anyone of them could be missing for this hour and nobody would notice. And even if they did, the person could justify it by saying he was searching for Madeleine in the side streets.

So why is this extra hour important? Well Ive posted why I believe this is important here :)

Has the emphasis on Hitler and the Nazis in school history lessons become counter productive? A question has been posted asking whether medical experiments should be carried out on criminals and paedophiles rather than animals. I just wonder how many people are impressed by Hitler and would follow his example in this country?
