I can appreciate that as sometimes the repetitive nastiness of it all is wearing and at the moment we don't know much at all about what is going on in the German investigation. We're at the wait and see stage.
Anyway, glad you are well.
Back on topic ~
First of all what has been billed as 'a hoax' actually never was as far as the photograph is concerned. The hoax was the bomb alert which was nothing at all to do with the photograph.
I think there is a significance that the photograph was taken at a busy international airport and was used to illustrate a news report of the event.
There is no doubt that the little girl and her unkempt companions make an incongruous threesome and I agree with Anthro that the similarity between Kruse and the man holding the child's hand is disturbing.
Almost as disturbing as the eagerness to dispel the similarity with Madeleine without any checks being done and the mere thought of that possibility being treated with such negativity.
I wish Sadie was able to post ~ this is her forte. I think the unusually high forehead matches.
Below was written at the time in response to jassis supercilious and ill informed post aimed at Anthro, but I was unable to post at the time (as you know). It also covers Briettas post above.
If you learned to question everything rather than take them at face value you might learn something - IMO
Hahaha
Anthro is brilliant.
She has questioned everything in great depth and has just come up with amazing posts. I wish that I spoke Spanish / Paraguayan, but I get the gist of much of it. She links in with some things I had previously noted, but never mentioned.
If only you understood what she has done.
But then, imo, either you don't understand or you are deliberately obfuscating.
If it is the later, WHY?
Do you have a reason why you dont want Madeleine found?

BTW I can see facial similarities between Cruz and the man holding the little girls hand at ?Ibiza airport. not enough to be certain, but enough for it to be positioned forward on the 'back burner' imo.
The initial reports that it was Brazil please me better than it is Ibiza airport. I have found connections to Brazil. Could the Ibiza airport be deliberate disinformation?
Anyone got photos of Ibiza airport from the same angle? TY Not doctored ones please
