Current Events - September 2007

Ive heard some people say we should ignore it. And ive heard some people say it needs to be looked in to more.The government thinks hes still at the Pakistan-Afghanistan border region. A lawless region thats been taken over mostly by terrorist cells.The tape depicts a calling to Americans to convert to Islam. And he says their are 2 ways the war in Iraq will end. 1 is if Al-Qaida soldier defeats american troops or 2 if america converts to the muslim faith and pulls out of Iraq. So what hes saying is if america does what hes saying than the attacks will stop and Iraq will be okay. Also, he talks about recent events. Letting everybody know hes not dead and that hes been keeping up with whats going on in the U.S. He hasnt released a tape since 2004. He speaks about the Democrats taking over the House and the Senate, The newly elected President in France, Global Warming, even the morgage crisis here in the U.S. So hes talking about a lot of things. However, no attacks was mention.

She called him "virtually impotent" in a news conference. What's the betting there will be a major reprisal because of her comment?

American companies have sent many jobs off-shore to increase company profits. Also, many labor jobs such as house construction are done by companies who preferentially hire illegal immigrants again so profits can be maximized. I've been to several Asian countries, for instance, and the people there are educated, hard-working and hungry to achieve and from what I've seen maybe more deserving. So what's the future? Please refrain from making political comments. My intention is to get some objective answers. Thank you for your response.

His latest rhetoric is downright comic book material. Why hasn't he been captured already?

Its strange since the world trade centers were already loaded with explosives on 9/11 and rigged to collapse prior to the attacks do you think there were actually terrorists (or patsy's) on the planes as some have speculated.
The planes could have easily been taken off course without pilots (or terrorists) using the same technology as unmanned aerial vehicle's (UAV) commonly used in Iraq.
What would the purpose then be of the terrorists (or patsy's) in this scenario? Why use them at all... why not just fly the plane into the towers to give a pretext for war, demolish them after adequate airtime, then invade, aggrandize, consolidate power & capitalize as a nation.
Do you think there were actually terrorists/patsy's on board? If so Why?

As the public only has media reports, stage-managed press conferences, speculation, conspiracy theory and chat-room rumour to go on, I'd be interested to know why people are so convinced one way or the other, and what evidence or logical arguments they can present to support their opinion that the McCanns are either "innocent victims" or "guilty cover-up merchants" - the most lucid and rational argument will win Best Answer.

This guy is constantly judging the McCanns I agree that they are guilty of neglect but he can not judge as this person thinks its perfectly fine to smoke joints when the children have gone to bed, wastes his time on here posting crap when he should be looking after his kids!!! What if something happened to one of his children and his was too out of it to help them, you are no where near perfect so dont judge them!!!

Sorry for moaning but he talks ****

I dont have children so can waste my time on here but if I did I certainly would not smoke joints when they had gone to bed!!!

I know if I was going to murder my child, I would not make up a story that I left her alone. I think they would have come up with something like " We were at the park and turned around and she was gone" - Why would they risk getting the other 2 taken away by making up a story of leaving them alone? Anyone thought about that? Doesn't make sense!! Why would they want to be looked at by the entire world as the worst parents in the world that left their children alone?? Because they didn't do it!! Duh! Think about it!! They would have come up with alot better story than that -

Reuters reported Osama bin Laden's first video in almost three years has drawn enthusiastic support from al Qaeda supporters. Osama bin Laden described the United States as vulnerable, a message some of his followers saw as a sign a new operation might be approaching.

Why do those that think America's aggressiveness inspires terrorism when each and every time we see these reports that it is clear that terrorists target our weakness and lack of resolve. It is just the opposite than what they claim. These same people had to grow up as children being well aware how bullies pick on the weak but they now deny it happens.

The fact that we arrest and imprison bad people doesn't create more bad people. Why does those people claiming passiveness prevents terrorism have such short-circuited logic? Why are they not arguing to free criminals in our prisons to protect the masses?

What else WOULD you use to kill one of those?? All jokes aside this is CLASSIC California. Use a .50 cal on a whale everyone will want your head. Use a .50 cal on a police officers and you'll be acquitted because your daddy didn't love you or you were hooked on drugs.

The original Osama was allowed to escape at Tora Bora so Bush could get his war in Iraq, that he had been planning since his first Cabinet meeting, started.

6 years later and Bush's Iraq war is a quagmire. Good news for Bush's buddies in the Oil companies, but bad news for the American public.

Thousands of American kids have been killed and tens of thousands more have been maimed in Bush's war. All independent reports show Bush's war as a total failure that is not winnable through military means.

Now the Bush administration put out a new video with a totally new Osama that doesn't look anything like the other Osamas in the other videos.

Does this indicate that they are about to stage a capture of the new Osama to try to sell Bush's war to a weary and wary American public?

How will Bush use the capture of the new Osama to start Bush's planned war in Iran?

There was absolutely no need for him to speak as he left the plane, the pair of them standing there acting it out with those poor little mites in their arms. Their statement had been made by their representative in Portugal after they left. You'd think he would have wanted to get the twins home instead of putting them through that.

sad pathetic losers who have more interest in other peoples lives than in your own lives! Jesus leave them alone i hope one day you lot are caught up in the media and have the world hate you!

You yes you! reading this now really dont know all the facts you probably dont know hardly any of them!!! So before you pass judgement on them think before you act. People keep saying o take the twins away from them. Who are you to say that, are you a proffessional within the british child care system. I bet you are not. your just know all idiots who have an opinion on everything that does not concern you!

If your really that concerned about young children. Why dont you get you wallets out and donate some money to childline (NSPCC) that would help children not standing there voicing your media influenced opinions on Maddies parents!
Who agree's!
O for all you out there who really care that are just not biching heres the link to donate some cash to help a child!

The Portuguese police has bungled this terrible crime, because either they are professionally inept and incompetent or they are absolutely corrupt and have members of a paedophilic rings within their members who would go to any length to protect the abductors of this girl and other unresolved abductions previously to protect themselves, and then turned the search light on the parents, and murdered the girl, now planted the blood in the parents rooms and returned later when no one was watching under the protection of Portuguese secrecy act to plant her blood in the hire car and hired death scent products to excite their dogs, alleging that the parents might have murdered their own loving daughter by accident, is absolutely disgusting and outrageous.

Our government in the good old US of A is out of touch but only because so many people in this country have forgotten that this country was started was to keep government out of your life that's why the founding fathers came to the new world to escape this. now as a super power built on the belief of freedom but you can not drive a car without wearing a seat belt, or smoke a cig in an open air park. now we want to force what we do on Iraq who made us or the U.S.A. the way it should be. maybe just maybe not all people want to be American.
do you agree? does being an American still mean you are free, or just that your too stupid to not know different?

That the twins are going to be taken into care. It is a fact that they neglected those young children so why shouldn't they be taken from them.Why should they be treated differently to other people who neglect their kids. Why is it one rule for them and another rule for another. Neglect is neglect.
