News & Events - September 2007

I watched the performance to see what everyone is talking about. It did not seem that bad. Is the media out to get her? They are attacking her weight and saying her performance was disastrous. Since when do journalists push their opinion on everyone?

I found it to be a very touching movie. it came out on tv a few years back. although it had a terrible portrayal of Bahrain, it was still a pretty good movie. I was pretty bothered by the fact that even tho this marine risked everything, his bride still wanted a divorce 5 years later. Its almost impossible to see that coming, after how in love and happy they were. They were all over the media. He said that she was plunged into the Vegas nightlife and then they grew apart. It is very said to see such a beautiful thing come to an end. She supposedly flew back to her native country. Very disturbingly sad. Does anyone know what happened to them both. Do you think they faked the divorce to ward off the death threats and hit men sent by her family???

Am I the only one that thinks this is the most idiotic thing ever? Despite having a holocaust survivor in the family and apparently being aware of his adopted countries history and the history of his family, one of these numbnuts actually thought (maybe thought is too strong a word) that attacking synagogues, orthodox Jews, memorials and adopting the anti semitic practices of the last nazi regime was a good idea.

Lets have some current affairs dialogue that doesn't include the word "McCann"

I found this really interesting. The reason given EVERYWHERE as to why the fund was not a charity was that it was refused charitable status because it didn't represent the good of all.

This is a lie - the Charity Commission gave advice, but they chose not to take that route. We all know what route they took eh - right to their very own limited company!

"The Commission was quoted in the article as saying the money raised was not for the “wider public good”, but has told Charity News Alert the story had been “misreported”.

“We were first approached for our advice about the possibility of a fund to assist the parents’ search on Monday 14 May,” explained a spokeswoman for the Commission. “We held discussions with the family’s lawyers and in the end they decided not to pursue that route.”

What made people (mainly supporters) so sure that it was Murat when he became a suspect (just because he was HELPING to translate btw) but when it comes to the parents who neglected their children and have lied constantly to us....all we hear is "innocent until proven guilty" or "it's a conspiracy, they're being set up"

No-one ever suggested that Murat was being framed when he was being slandered (bar of course a few people smart enough to see straight through the McCanns)!

I can't understand how some people on this site can change their morals so quickly....in my opinion, the same rules should be applicable to everyone!

Why do Kate and Gerry get to be innocent regardless of the evidence, yet, when there was no evidence at all linked with Murat he was automatically labelled as "guilty"?

How does this system work?

For school, I need to choose a novel dealing with a social issue, so i've selected "the attack" by Yasmina Khadra, dealing with the reality of terrorism and it's cost. I was wondering whether terrorism is a social issue? And if so, how does it affect us in North America? Thank you so much!!

Is it just me who notices there is greater danger in this man's speech? First, we're probably really seeing and understanding for the first time, that aside from his fundamentalism, fanaticism, etc., he appears to be extremely interested in "All" aspects of our lives! Second, he does not rest in finding the "latest" information about our world and news, and sets out to explain why he thinks we're wrong and he's right. Third, he appears to be a "master" in mixing history, word news events, "religions"_not only his own, but those which he deems attached to his, which is Christianity and Judaism.

The list of things could go on and on. But really reading all that he said, just makes me think he is too smart for our own good!!! I believe he could do much more damage still just by talking! But not content with that_or maybe just not realizing the power of his own words, well he'll probably do us more physical harmstill once again.

I'm sick of this. Al-Queda was not in Iraq before 9/11 and Iraq did not have anything to do with 9/11.

Is it not possible that the reason the *guilty* McCanns set up the fund in the first place is because they knew eventually the police would be after them and they would need the best lawyers? with the £1m raised they ll be able to buy the best lawyers ever! many people are outraged by the fact they will use this donated money, but it seems nothing can be done by the public.

RIYADH, Sept 10 (Reuters) - Saudi Arabia said on Monday Israel was increasing tensions in the region and its future hinged on recognising Palestinian rights to statehood.

The unusually strong comments from the Muslim kingdom, which has traditionally close ties to Washington, come as the region awaits a U.S.-sponsored Middle East peace conference expected to take place in November.
