the cult of personality

Well, let's face it, they're struggling. Once upon a time there were around 5,000 of them in one forum alone & we all know how that ended. Their FB pages are pathetic & you only have to compare it with the support received on the Find Madeleine FB page, they're so far off you almost feel sorry for them.

I disagree; the press slated the McCann's even prior to being made arguido (Google Leveson enquiry and Martin Brunt Sky reports). And I would like to see your proof that "number of the public who doubt the McCanns seems to have risen after the release of the files".

[Mo Stache]

I would think any sane adult would support a review if it brought an end to this case. There is, however, no implicit support of he McCanns, because of that.

If that be the case, why didn't 'these people' sign another petition that was on line demanding the reopening of the case instead of a review? A review will not necessarily bring the case to an end, where as a reopening of the case might do.

[Mo Stache]

The majority of the public who signed the petition are pro Madeleine, not pro-McCann. There is a difference.

Would the pro-Madeleine group's interest not best be served then to have signed the reopening of the case petition rather than the review the case petition?

[Benice]

I think in general the British press were very supportive of the McCanns in the few months after the disappearance. It was only post-arguido that that began to change.

 That the number of the public who doubt the McCanns seems to have risen after the release of the files, and despite the statements from SY and the strangle hold CR have on newspaper editors, is telling in itself.

What 'stranglehold''?     Carter Ruck can do nothing about Newspaper editors if they are not breaking the law.

Those who do not even have the decency to respect this little girl's absolute right to be regarded as a missing, findable child, in the absence of absolute proof of her death, are acting AGAINST the best interests of the child, not FOR them. It's utterly despicable that they pretend otherwise.

That would be the case, if you knew you could trust the PJ to do it properly.

But there have been things happen in this and other cases that have raised many question marks.

I prefer the review first, then the re-opening.

No one is stopping her being looked for, and no one who thinks she is likely or probably dead would not report a likely sightiing of her, people do have free minds you know, no book pamphlet or reading any internet blog or forum can turn them into mindless  unthinking sheep, unless you think that happens, you have no proof of how many people who dont think she is alive came to that conclusion because of reading one book or forum or even a number of them, over and above reading all sides and all paper reports, tv discussions, interviews, and other types of research

I'm sorry I simply don't agree with you on that, it has been very clearly expressed by some on that horrid FB page that they simply don't want her found, in fact, I think the expression used was that they'd be "gutted" if she was found alive & that's just one example.

I have read one tweet over theyears saying that, over hundreds of thousands and probably millions of comments, to extrapolate from a miniscule at best number, to suggesting that most or even several doubters think that is not on IMO and you know it

There is one of your number who believes Madeleine is the second coming. Do you all believe that ?

Good point there FL, thank you

[Mrs. B]

Don't even know what you are on about tbh but I read earlier that there's one in your camp who think Simon Cowell is the Anti Christ, but I guess that doesn't apply to everybody.

But Simon Cowell has never been involved in this case and I am sure the comment was not in relation to his involvement, but an off the cuff general comment, so not a good example for your argument

Here you go, by poster called vee8 on various pro forums/blogs

[Mo Stache]

Not forgetting, compare the amount or portion of the general population who all signed a petition (to Downing Street) to ask for a review of the case.

I would think any sane adult would support a review if it brought an end to this case. There is, however, no implicit support of he McCanns, because of that.
