Current Events - August 2007

Does the media know something they have extracted from the investigation authoroties and have to keep stump? They have resources and allways seem to find the fire that creates the smoke. Why else would they make accusations. Media have not done this to genuine unfortunate people before

"If the worms pretend to be on the side of a human child but against her parents." - The exact reason (on my behalf anyway) that the "worms" are against the parents is BECAUSE we are on the side of a human child!

Kate and Gerry are completely unwilling to admit any fault stating that they were "at worst, a little naive". I refuse to support parents who are a/ neglectful to their children and b/ can't even have the courage to admit fault...so please don't anyone lecture me on how strong and courageous these people have been!! Not supporting them does not make me a paedophile. I want justice for Maddie!

Finally, so this doesn't get reported I have to ask a question...why do they want to play down the media attention? I would have thought that they would want as much possible attention for their daughter who was "abducted". Perhaps someone could explain their reasoning to me?

"Did we let Madeleine down? I'm not sure, but as parents we feel guilty."

So said Gerry McCann in an interview in Edinburgh. So he's still not sure if they let their daughter down but they feel guilty anyway.

What are your feelings/comments regarding this statement? Is it enough to forgive them?

If the worms have several names and are driven by hate and envy? If the worms ask similar questions 1000s of times and give 10s of 1000s of worm answers? If the worms are sickening hypocrites who use lies and out of context news statements to promote a hate campaign. If the worms pretend to be on the side of a human child but against her parents. If the worms do not care if their repeated references to a certain tragedy give kicks to inhuman paedophiles? Look out there are ( a few)worms about.

The North American Union

In 2005 George Bush signed international documents that will merge Mexico
And Canada with the United States

This new country will be called The North American Union
With a new currency called the AMERO

While your troops are overseas fighting the oil wars your country has been sold by your government

Please enquire into this

As it is very apparent that the poor people who don’t matter have not been told
Its even possible people in the military have not been told
It is even possible that some people in the government don’t know
Its almost a certainty that the american public has not been told

However the truth is out there
Please enquire and let me know

Search is useless, except to recover the bodies. A human can not survive 3 weeks without water. But, why haven't officially labeled the miners dead?

When I was holidaying abroad I had severe diarrea, and I made my children stand directly, with their feet showing outside the toilet! (they've never forgiven me for that!)
The list goes on, but Im sure you good people don't want to know the details!

I was rushing around half listening to Radio 4 on Saturday morning and I heard that when a whale vomits, it floats on the sea and does not disburse for months sometimes years, it gets washed up on shore and becomes extremely valuable why? It can be used for glue? It has a smell greatly prized in some form of perfume? It forms some kind of collectable solid? Did I hear correctly? Surely this was a wind-up anyone know what this was all about? Sorry to put this question a little indelicately, also I cannot see a suitable category so I suppose it could be a current event or not depending on when the whale actually chucked up.

Jack McClellan, a self-described pedophile, is leaving California after a judge ordered him to stay away permanently from places where children gather. This is the guy who posted photos of children in public places and discussed how he liked to stake out parks, public libraries, fast-food restaurants and other areas where little girls congregated...but states he never touched them. California parents and a sympathetic judge have run him out of the state, so now he is going somewhere else. What would you do if he was coming to your neighborhood?

During the week a Jehovah Witness was spared imprisonment after being convicted of child sex offences because the judge considered among other things that he was a 'changed man' and also a 'man of faith'.

Should the fact that he is a christian have spared him from imprisonment?

Every week people are dying in Iraq. Last week a chopper went down killing 14. So why does the deaths of 8 dogs make bigger news than the deaths of 14 people? Last I checked people were more important than animals. Couple that with the fact that in my local mall they have a gourmet dog biscuit store... What the hell has happened to our society where animals are suddenly more important than people?

Why is it when questions are asked re: important issues relating to the Madeleine McCann case once again abuse and silly behaviour is said to the point of no real response or purpose to the question or the debate.

Am I the only one who feels sick when I hear that Parker-Bowles will be going to the memorial service for our beloved Princess Diana - having split the marriage. Whilst her ex-husband Prince Charles will not be going?

What is going on here? Isn't this the final insult from the royal

Supposedly U.S. government has confronted Maliki about this, but it appears Muqtada is the one who truly controls most of Iraq, being as he is a respected leader not only of Sadar city but of many of the Shiites. Recently he lifted a two month boycott of Parliament once he got from Iraqi government what he'd wanted.

He'd been sought three or four years back for the murder of a Shiite cleric, his apparent rival. Supposedly the man was hacked to death in or around a Mosque by Muqtada's men or Muqtada himself. What happened to charges? Were they dropped? Why?

Maybe the U.S. fears all out chaos and the division of Iraq among the three main sects and/or ethnic groups. But by not confronting the perpetual killings from Muqtada (the Shiites) as well as whoever leads the Sunnis_for even if unknown, they must have at least one leader_how can anything ever be worked out in Iraq? Much less the american troops be able to leave?

This was posted into one of my questions by a reader and I must say it gave me great concern. The person who posted it was also concerned about what child killers may be doing with the contents of the hate questions against the McCann family.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
" I read something on here the other day that suggested some paedophiles may be getting their kicks on here which is why they post and re-post. In fact one sick person described in detail what he thinks has happened to the poor soul.

For me, that was the most sickening of all - this person actually wanted to imagine that. Stomach-churning and very revealing”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Do you also get the creeps thinking that these people may be reading the 1000s (yes1000s) of cruel, libellous and repeated questions vilifying this tragic but heroic family?
