Child Abuse Scandal Comes Closer to the Pope



The latest allegation is of abuse in the 1970s at a school near Mainz. At an elite Benedictine school in Ettal, in Bavaria, in the 1960s “absolute terror reigned”, says one victim. At a children’s home in Berlin, the perpetrator was a nun, claims a 60-year-old woman. Other scandals have surfaced in Austria and the Netherlands.

The Regensburg allegations come near Pope Benedict XVI. His brother, Georg Ratzinger, led the “cathedral sparrows” for 30 years from 1964. He has confessed to slapping children but said he knew nothing of sexual abuse. Mr Wittenbrink finds this claim “inexplicable”.

Has China Purchased Michigan?

Alicya Martin is the latest blogger to claw her way to the top. She was stuck at the $5000 per day earnings plateau [$150 per 15 minutes].

As all bloggers, she longed for the day when a big scoop would uplift her from the doldrums.

Her deliverer came in the rotund form of Mr Athans. The philanderer slipped Alicya’s notice, but he did the deed under the watchful eye of the FBI.

Bloggers everywhere hoped that Mr Athans worked for the State Department peddling our nuclear secrets to the Turks. He had worked as a liberal producer at Air America before that obscure rag had gone belly-up in 2006. The least we could have expected was a tie with the expose artist Randi Rhodes.

Randi had just discovered the prostitution network headed by Presidential contender Hillary Clinton and former Veep aspirant Geraldine Ferraro. If so, how had they expanded to Detroit to nab the hapless Mr Athans?

Before we bloggers could blurt out our wild theories, fate took a hand. Air America suspended Randi for bad-mouthing, but not for stating falsehoods. Mr Athans confessed to being the husband of a Michigan Democratic Senator.

To be fair, I am withholding the name of the Senator involved. I could not find two sources who could verify Michigan had representation in Washington at all.

A few days ago I heard from the Kazakhstan blogosphere that China had bought Michigan from Bear Stearns.

That notice is being suppressed pending notification of the next of kin.

Abduction: A Crime Against Humanity

Starting in 1952 there was a sharp rise of infant mortality in the Negev. More than 300 babies dying during their first week after birth, the doctors said a contagious disease had taken them. Requiring instant burial the Rabbis removed the dead infants before the parents had a last chance to see them. Over the years their distraught loved ones wondered in vain what had happened to their children. In 1997 they began to dig up the graves finding most of them empty! The doctors had signed false death certificates and the Rabbis had staged funerals. Also guilty the social workers had sold the babies to childless couples.

In 1952 a few days after giving birth to Chaim
His mother was resting under sedative
When the nurses awakened her with the terrible news her son was dead from a contagious disease requiring quick burial
The Rabbi had officiated at the funeral
The doctor was getting the Death Certificate
Nobody had even a photo
Of the baby all that remained of him were a few memories.
There was a Certificate from the Ministry of the Interior.
The National Insurance Institute had furnished a tiny tombstone for Chaim.
Doubt was the only legacy
Chaim had been only the first to expire of hundreds of infants.


For a three-year period the modern facility at Dimona had the highest infant mortality rate in the world.
The pregnant women abandoned the hospital to give birth at home.
For 45 years parents pressed for an answer
They appealed to every authority in the country.
Suing in every court they had to pay enormous fines levied by angry judges. Many demonstrated and a few who had become rowdy sat in prison for it.

In 1997 the family agreed to exhume Chaim’s body
A desperate move it ran counter to every tenet in the Jewish religion.
Chaim’s grave was empty!
The Rabbis said it was a punishment from God.
Then, 28 more couples found their infants’ graves vacant as well.
The Interior Ministry continued the lie of 45 years
They admitted forging 29 Death Certificates but said that was the total.
After they dug up 200 more empty graves the National Insurance Office put the blame on Rabbis and social workers who had sold the babies to the highest bidder.
Chaim was alive in San Francisco
When they met his mother was a stranger to him.
The government employees had done such crimes against humanity for two generations.
Very few of them comprehend what evil they have done.
