There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Kingston, Jamaica, March 20 – Pakistan cricket coach Bob Woolmer’s death at the World Cup on Sunday is now being treated as “suspicious” by Jamaican police, the deputy commissioner Mark Shields told a news conference on Tuesday.
“Having met the pathologist, medical personnel and other investigators, there is now sufficient information to continue a full investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of Mr Woolmer which we are now treating as suspicious,” Shields said.
“We have already informed the Woolmer family of this development and we are also in close contact with the Pakistan team management, Cricket World Cup and the ICC (International Cricket Council) to ensure that all the parties are kept informed of the ongoing investigation.”
One of the top coaches in the world, Woolmer, 58, was found unconscious in his Kingston hotel room on Sunday less than 24 hours after their World Cup defeat by Ireland and pronounced dead in hospital later that day.
Reports from the Pakistan camp at the time said that Woolmer was discovered by hotel staff on the floor of his room at the Pegasus Hotel with his mouth wide open, blood was discovered on the bathroom floor, there was vomit on the walls and signs of diarrhoea.
Pakistan team spokesperson Pervez Mir told Reuters that they were considering whether to play their final World Cup match against Zimbabwe in Kingston on Wednesday.
“This is something to be readdressed. We will be discussing it with the players, the team and the ICC,” he said.
“Obviously ‘suspicious’ could be anything at this moment. It could be something serious, it could be something not serious. We have a man who is down and we don’t know the reason why.”
Shields told reporters that “we have no suspects”.
The governing body, the ICC, refused to comment when contacted by Reuters on the police statement but spokesperson Sami-ul-Hasan said that they expected the match to go ahead.
The hotel said it would not be commenting until it had been fully briefed by the police.
Earlier on Tuesday the Pakistan Cricket Board had said the findings from a post mortem into the death of Woolmer were “inconclusive”.
Mir had said at the earlier new conference that further investigations were being carried out by a toxicologist and a histologist (scientist who examines body tissue).
Pakistan were considered one of the leading contenders to win a title they claimed in 1992 but the shock defeat to Ireland coupled with an opening-day defeat by hosts West Indies doomed them to an early exit.
The elimination was greeted with fury by fans back home in the cricket-crazy nation who burned effigies of the players.
