yet the uk goverment is cutting spending by massive amounts to the poor and one of the mps recently said another $ 40 billion would need to be cut where is it all going

BBC News interview regarding economy; interviewee (male) casually stated that the UK is increasing debt by hundreds of billions in this Parliament, yet this comment was completely overlooked by everyone in the studio. I was busy doing something else at the time but it caught my attention.
Money Week stated recently that in this Parliament alone the UK Gov. will add £700 Billion to the national debt - more than all the debt created by the last 20 Governments combined.
Heard either on the 13th or 14th Jan on BBC News.

Is it just me, or did the Iraq war/aftermath just completely disappear from the news and subsequently replaced with news of Afghanistan...and now Pakistan?
And what about this Gulf Oil Spill everyone was so crazy about? Seems almost like it never happened.
All I read about lately are trapped miners and financial meltdown.
Somebody trying to hide something? Maybe I'm just paranoid.edit on 15-10-2010 by xiphias because: (no reason given)

I'm also leaning more towards the criminal recklessness too... BUT... I'm more concerned about the lack of media coverage, when the event happened! It almost happened with in a 24 hr window! The explosion was 100 times greater then Boston with more devastation... But the media mostly stayed with Boston, why? It's as if they knew that Texas was an accident, but the marathon attack wasn't!! How can they come to that conclusion, without any facts to back it up, so early after it happened? I would like to know how the media "KNEW", that Boston was more important to stick with! I mean... It's like 2 people, with 2 firecrackers, throwing them during a parade, but the very next day, on the other side of town, someone throws dynamite into a house... What would you be reporting on? Where would you send Anderson Cooper? It's almost like the media was "TOLD"... stay with Boston!

Oooh I like this, sorry im late to the party.
I got one, have any of you seen a documentary called Conspiracy of Silence? It was scheduled to be aired in 1994 on the Discovery channel, but someone pulled the plug on it and it was never shown on TV. You can now watch a rough, but still very watchable and enlightening, version of it on youtube. It's about TPTB in the US using children, orphans mostly but I also believe it alleges a lot of them are kidnapped, in drug trafficking and the sex trade. Supposedly two of the children who were in the movie later died under fishy circumstances.
EDIT: OOPs someone already mentioned this, either way its good and should be watched.
I also saw something on cspans book tv a while back and I cant for the life of me remember all the details, maybe someone else can help me out here. A guy had wrote a book about a ww 2 general (not patton) that was offered a blank check by a group of bankers to overthrow the president. Instead of taking the money he went public and told everyone what had happened.
Does anyone know any more about this, like who was the general and when exactly did this happen? I cant find anything on google about it rght now.
