I think the need was for Michael to create his validity/credibility as Back and Front on the forum.
I mean besides confirmations from the family, he verified himself... so to speak...
Quote from: bec on December 03, 2012, 08:26:44 PMThere's no need to add Liberian Girl pics to the memorial slides and on the stage and booklets at the burial.
Those pics were an important comforting visual clue for the fans who were (most of them) suffering and crying! To most those pics didn't meant anything at that time, they didn't realize it then (me neither! I was still in shock...and had tears in my eyes during the most moving moments of the memorial), but I think those pics , alongside the other numerous clues had a very strong calming effect on the few, but very observant fans who noticed them right then when it all happened.
I think this was Michael's purpose: to make at least a small amount of fans feel better when seeing them.
Quote from: bec on December 03, 2012, 08:26:44 PMThere's no need for all sorts of clues and hints that have been dropped over the years other then to keep us entertained.
i must disagree here too. I think every single detail was carefully planned and thought before hand and everything MEANT something important. Nothing was done at hazard... nothing was superficial nor superfluous. Such a minutely prepared hoax cannot have useless elements in it! At least that's how I perceive it to be, that's how I perceive Michael..as the perfectionist he is and almost obsessed with details! I highly doubt anything was done just like that... for the sake of it! Everything was intended and charged with a definite scope and effect!
Quote from: bec on December 03, 2012, 08:26:44 PMI think what Andrea and are I trying to say is clues to FBI involvement do not automatically prove the existence of an FBI sting going on.
Involvement could be cooperation, clearance, approval, condoning, etc.
Could be! maybe! perhaps!
IMo the evidence presented by TS (not just in his last posts, but on all his posts on the FBI sting) contains much more certainty than those doubting "could be-s", even if TS clearly didn't tell us everything! either because he doesn't know everything (as he clearly said it) OR because he CAN'T tell us everything , not YET (because "The BEST is YET to come!")
Quote from: bec on December 03, 2012, 08:26:44 PMFBI cooperation, for example, doesn't have to be a sting operation. The FBI do lots of other things besides just sting operations.
Yes of course, FBI operations are not uniquely/strictly focused on organizing STINGs.
But so far, throughout this hoax, we've seen many signs, clues and also direct hints made by TS and also by the family (LaToya), that at least in this death hoax, the FBI involvement is focused on a STING operation meant to reveal a conspiracy! the word conspiracy had been mentioned countless times by Michael and his family in numerous interviews!!
A conspiracy of that caliber (2 false allegation trials + money extortion + album sabotage - "Invincible" + death threats + media bashing) can only be stopped with the help/involvement of an authority such as FBI and the best "modus-operandi" in such cases is the STING!
TS dedicated 2 levels and several large posts on the subject of FBI and the STING!
I think we should NOT dismiss this as just a mere 'TS-prank/test".
he may have "played' with us here and there, throwing some small false leads to us, to check if we follow that blindly or we use our logic!
But I doubt he had invested so much time and energy on this them (FBI - sting operation) just for all to be a farse for us!
That's why the DWD theory seems to be the most plausible of all! because in such serious case, for such a sting, FBI doesn't "play with dolls/dummies and other weak materials like that! things HAD to be as REAL as possible!!! FBI never leaves place for mistakes! they don't want to compromise the work of so many people (most paid with public money) by working with "plastic-patients" !
PLUS: remember, we still don't have all the subjects targeted by this sting! Who knows what dark affairs FBI intends to uncover/prove/de-conspire through the use of the DWD practice!!
