I&#039;ve given up reading the English-language press because they put a distorted slant on events.

I&#039;ve always admired that woman so much. It would be a pity if she does that.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The fact that only edited pieces of the recording have been released probably means that much of the illegally taped conversation was not in any way damaging to Richard Cachia Caruana or the Nationalist party. 

Mr. Cachia Caruana needs to remember this conversation and confirm this with whoever the other person is, then unleash hell.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Twenty-five years ago, the MLP government secretly signed a pact with North Korea to train the local special police forces against the Maltese population.

Recently the MLP / movement had another secret meeting with North Korean officials, but Jospeh Muscat is not yet willing to discuss what was discussed and agreed.

Given the unthinkable tactics that Muscat and his clique are using to attack those who do not agree with them, I wonder whether the secret meeting was organized so that the MLP officials get up to speed on the latest dodgy ways and means their North Korean counterparts use to suppress their poor citizens / enemies.   

They might actually believe that this is the best way to prepare to govern a country. With hindsight, we can say that the last three months were very telling.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Wasn&#039;t Ian Farrugia found innocent though? 

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - God knows why, when he was a party to the crime. He admitted being there, he admitted accepting the commission to kill, and his handprint was found on the roof of Richard Cachia Caruana&#039;s car. But by that time, the Labour Party had done so much to sabotage the trial - and this when Anglu Farrugia was defence lawyer to Farrugia - that the jurors probably weren&#039;t thinking straight. No, he wasn&#039;t guilty of the actual physical stabbing, but plotting to kill somebody, accepting the commission and actually going there are crimes too. Very serious crimes. Ian Farrugia was later found to have stolen precious oil paintings from Judge Giovanni Bonello&#039;s Valletta house. I see a connection there - the oil paintings with the person who is suspected of commissioning the murder - but let&#039;s not go into it now.]&lt;/strong&gt;

I&#039;m really stretching my memory now, but I have this mental image of Tucks proudly hugging Ian Farrugia in front of the TV cameras the day he was liberated. (Apologies for messing up the legal jargon here - I need a cup of Earl Grey and some sleep.)

Also, had they ever established who was behind the assassination attempt? Who commissioned the hitmen? Why was Żeppi l-Ħafi&#039;s presidential pardon never revoked if it was granted on condition that he reveals the names of the murderers, which he never did?

Qualcosa non c&#039;entra.

&lt;strong&gt;
[Daphne - Your last point: you cannot be serious.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The ONE NEWS presenter last night said that in the recording RCC implicates &quot;b&#039;mod car&quot; Professor Demarco as one of the persons he suspects to be responsible for his attempted murder.

I recorded the clip which had a transcript of the recording, and played it many times....even pausing it occassionally to read the text carefully.

NOWHERE in the text does RCC claim, or even suggest that Prof De Marco was involved in the attack on his life.

He only said that Guido found it hard to tell Brigadier Calleja that he had to resign and probably told Calleja that this was &quot;Xi cuccata ta&#039; Richard&quot;.

He then said he was annoyed (understandably I suppose) that Dr. Demarco&#039;s children (top criminal defence lawyers) defended his attackers in court.

Does NOBODY at ONE NEWS or the PL know how to read plain English? - How they came to the conclusion that RCC implicated De Marco is beyond
comprehension.

Unfortunately ONE NEWS is aimed at an audience of illiterate and ignorant people who will believe anything they tell them. Even people commenting here obviously did not read the actual text of the conversation.

On the other hand I think ONE NEWS is actually helping the PN to regain its support as the intelligent majority realises how shameless and disgusting the PL machine really is.]]></description>
