I'm British so I don't know too much about her, but it seems like she says things simply in order to observe the reaction of her audience....

Do you feel like the media has used the Madeleine story to sell more newspaper, or was it an unavoidable way to increase chances of finding her?

This journalist compares the case to the McCann case, in part she says:
"We are hopelessly callous, we the public – and I include journalists – who watch these slow-motion tragedies of lost children unfold as if for our amusement. We who judge the parents for the way they look and the amount of pain they can articulate. But grief is not a television sport; and there is no external measurement for the way in which it kills people, both mentally and physically. Poor Janette Hamilton just died a bit quicker than most, that was all."

From there are two government-led official investigations on the JFK assasination, the committes concluded that the assasination is solely carried out by Lee Harvey Oswald.

I assume most of you reading this may have watched at least once either Discovery Channel or History Channel shows of investigating the JFK assasination.

I, an enthusiastic investigator of the JFK assasination, have contacted incredible amount of information on this affiar.

I will not go into detail on this. But there is one mystery still unsolved- even by today.

Let's exclude all the other issues-motives, plans, etc. Let's just focus on the assassination itself.

If Oswald was the only gunner at the scene, shooting the president at the back, then why does the famous Zapruder film show the president being shot at the front of the head?

Seeing is believing. Here is the film.

http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=ef5fa0e9d7

Same video, but different website: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=kennedy%20assassination&search=Search&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&spell=1

Clearly, the last fatal head shot was fired from in front of the president, not at the back of the president, where Oswald was known to be shooting.

If you closely observe the film of the moment when the president gets shot in the head, the bullet came from the front of the president. It is proven by

1. The film clearly shows the president is getting shot in the front forehead, foolproof. You can clearly see the wound at the president's front head, as the bullet strikes.

2. the president's head flips back as the force applied to the target.

3. Also, at the moment of the impact to the target (JFK's head), the blood splash tells us the bullet entered from the front of the president's head. Throughout the entire shooting time, Oswald was at the BACK of the president.

(by the way, just before the headshot, the president was shot through his throat. After a few second, Jackie asks him, "Are you okay?")


Therefore, there must be a second gun man.

Anyone who has shot a gun before, should be able to understand what I am talking about.

I am not saying Oswald is innocent. I am saying there is a possiblity that Oswals was one of the shooters at the scene. (Or, Oswald may have not shot him at all.) Because Oswals was also assasinated before going into a further interrogation, this affair remains mystery.

But one thing for sure; I am confident there was another gunman.

If you would like to leave any opinions, you are welcomed. But no insult, profanity and attacking the other users, please!

Growing up I was the only open atheist in a highschool of 800. Today 10% of the population claims to be atheist. What has culturally changed between now and then to encourage the belief in atheism?

To tell you the truth African Americans, or black people born in America look down on Africans that are from Africa. There has always been that dark skinned to light skinned stereotype within the black race. So personally before black people scream out racism outside their race, they need to fix the racism inside the race.

How refreshing to find a U.S. journalist telling it like she really sees it.

She paid compliments to a number of Republican and Democrat Presidents but the telling point was her recollection of comment by Dubbya on how only War Presidents are remembered and he wanted to be a War President..

She has no positive opinion of him at all while she did manage to find redeeming features in Reagan, Ford, Nixon and others.

She's been around a while and obviously seen the best and worst of many U.S. leaders but her comments on Bushy Jnr. stand out as an indictment on his inabalitiy.

isn't the government losing money? Of course, if it cancelled all tobacco taxes, the smokers would be getting a free ride.
Persons with bodies weakened by smoking, get all kinds of diseases and ailments. Should tobacco taxes be raised 10 times to pay more of their medical bills that now fall upon the non-smoking public?
