She was entwined in the relationship
No one else was there and this is her story believe it or not. She was quite capable of inventing an attacker and binding her own hands to make it look like there had been an attack but there was and adventure a misadventure. Tears can be manipulated and manufactured. She was entwined in the relationship maybe Peter would not let her out?

The Tower is closer, and he belongs there even more!

"Democracy" means having the power to remove from power those leaders who are a detriment to the greater good - and criminal to boot.

Does Al Qaeda exist?

18-10-2005 17:33

Better late than never to ask, I suppose. A disturbing pattern has emerged, in that, everytime someone is identified as belonging to the group, there is either no evidence offered to prove their existence, or more often, they turn out to be working for the intelligence services of either the USA, Britain, or Israel.

British Agent Held By Iran For Terrorism

18-10-2005 17:29

I suggest that you check out Seymour Hersh's recent work for the New Yorker. He details the US/UK Black Ops which are going on right now in Iran, from the surrounding 'Stans, not to mention those into Syria from Iraq.

Protests as arms dealers attend careersfair

18-10-2005 15:12

The last two days saw the AIESEC careers fair taking place at Nottingham University. The Portland Building, where the Students Union is based was full of businesses promoting their oppertunities for the under and post-graduates. People within the university informed the students attending the fair about some exhibitors: 'the problem is, they supply arms to countries with appalling human rights records'.

Arms manufacturers such as Caterpillar, BAE systems and Rolls Royce exhibiting at the fair were targeted because of their non-commitment to ethical responsiblity and the way in which they 'lie about the truth'. The protest, organised by NSPM, took place on both days of the fair. The Student Environmental and Ethical Network (SEEN) is organising an ethical careersfair later in November.
