Syria

The way I see it, President Obama now finds himself between a rock and a bear poop pile. One is hard, the other really stinks.

Abandoned by the UK, the  British people remember Bushes Iraq fiasco and want no part of another war, this time in Syria, there is some  sort of supported by France, possibly Turkey.

Americans find themselves alone trying to help the gas attacked people of this beleaguered country, the dictator run Syria.

At the same time there is no clear understanding  as to who  the so called rebels are...clearly another unresolvable mess of the North African and Middle east region.

Scam



Canadian get rich scam..


I happen to know of an incredible scam someone managed to execute just a few years ago. This fellow, just refer to him as Norm (real name) managed to accumulate somewhere between 1.2 and 2 million Canadian Dollars which he promptly used to buy a luxury home and several businesses and business properties. The initial investment was relatively small, just a few thousand dollars. In the end he was fined by the Provincial government for not properly registering a company or the company name he operated with. The fine was a lousy $500, that’s all. When I made a follow up phone call to see how this scam ended up I was told by the provincial officer that the file was closed, the fine was paid and that was the end of it. The officer then remarked that they are too busy to do anything more, being heavily involved to investigate fraud in the construction business was the excuse to do nothing more.
 
There were hundreds of what I would call insured parties but the fraud amounts were anywhere from $50 to $ 1,200 per situation. There was no way for the parties to know of each other and therefore the possibility of a class action lawsuit was minimal. If not for a couple of USA postal inspectors showing up one day at my door I never would have bothered to get involved.
 
I have been thinking of selling the story for $1000 or so but have done nothing about it. I have full details, it so happens that for a time I rented office space to the perpetrator  and after the activity found evidence in the leftover trash.

Sir, Aldino Abad
 
I have just been told by a friend who knows a thing or two about the internet that this whole bank/seniora/gift thing is in his words a scam and nothing but rubbish, ( he has English background, we in north America refer to rubbish as garbage actually.
I find this hard to believe, creating a story involving an old widow? Pretty sick actually if you ask me. It is suggested further that this is supposedly a typical Nigerian Scam and apparently this sort of thing has been going on for some time. What I can not figure out is why? What’s the point? With all that supposed money being kicked around is there anyone/ recipient who will actually furnish funds for this kind of thing? Hard to believe.
I digress, guess there is no funeral then, no money to be distributed, nothing but a rather primitive story for no clear purpose.
