What happened to building 7?

Click here for the Maltese version

On the 6th of June 2008 otherworldly events occurred. Joseph Muscat rose to leadership of the labour party against George Abela, three women stopped me in the street to tell me what a nice butt I have, and the Financial Times of London asked of building number 7.

This is a historic date. The most mainstream of authoritative of media, always aside from Xarabank, puts forward the question after seven years: "What happened to building 7?"

Building number 7 is the third tower that fell on the 11th of September 2001. A 47-storey building that fell without any aeroplane having crashed into it. A bit like when Alfred Sant's government fell because of Mintoff. It fell for the heck of it.

The strange screw-up here is that the Financial Times attracts the attention of BBC mentioning the collapse of building number 7 a half hour before this actually happened.

Journalist Jane Standley was talking in a direct live broadcast at 4:45pm and spread the news of the collapse of the third tower, yet tower 7 still stood behind her. It fell just 26 minutes later.

Because of this footage which can be found on Youtube, the BBC was bombarded with questions as well as accusations that the BBC were acting out one of Bush's script plays. Suspicions grew when Richard Porter, head of international news at BBC, said that he had no copy of the footage. If it were Charlon Gouder I'd have understood it.

As soon as Joseph Muscat came to know of this, he called Porter and wanted to appoint him to the board of journalistic ethics of ONE TV since Peppi Azzopardi had to resign from this position - he had to fly up to Rome and ask Bush about this mystery. But Bush between Peppi and the Pope, decided upon he whom as of late has done the greatest groveling, and so Peppi remained unanswered just as many millions of Americans have remained unanswered.

How can two aeroplanes bring down three towers?

I trust the official version. That building number 7 fell in a show of solidarity. The rest of the buildings in the vicinity are sponsored by RyanAir.

I demand the return of Joe Debono Grech. I repeat: I demand the return of Joe Debono Grech.
