		<description>I agree MoClippa, as immediately a post is published anywhere on the internet, there is a very high chance that it has been already cached. Therefore, it is important to leave amended content available rather than delete it altogether.</description>

		<description>I think its fine that he leaves it on, he already has FALSE in big red letters all over it... anyone that googles it and is interested enough to read the post won&#039;t have too much trouble putting one and two together. I like the idea that bloggers don&#039;t delete old posts, preferring to update them with new information rather then pretending they never existed.</description>

		<description>Mahmood, I agree with others in saying that what you&#039;ve done is something reckless, these kinds of accusations are inflammatory and baseless.. where I&#039;m from, if this turned out to be false, then you could get sued for libel.. given your previous brush with the authorities I think that you are pushing your luck</description>

		<description>++  Yes, there are good points on both sides.
++  The Bahrain telephone directory lists three subscribers by the same name, SAM.
++  It would seem to have started with &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://assad.arabhood.com/viewtopic.php?t=597&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Assad Takrit&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, reading as though he&#039;s intent to &#039;expose&#039; the political grop called the &lt;em&gt;Menbar&lt;/em&gt;, and pledging that this was not to be the worst (Menbar scandal) that he can reveal, i.e. there is more to come.  Mahmood, you sexed it up by adding the name and picture of a particular person.
++  The strongest doubt in the whole matter arises from the fact that the leaked document is a deposit slip, not the cheque itself (what happened to the cheque?).  Furthermore, there are not any bank stamps or markings that normally appear to indicate completion of necessary processes, e.g. entry in the books, or entry in the &#039;clearing process (coz it is drawn on HSBC a different bank that where SAM&#039;s account is said to be).
++  I certainly should want to visit again later, to see if your investigation yielded any progress.  Good luck.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ll try to investigate this this morning and post what I find. Until then, understand that this is not the only site that has published this slip, nor will it be the last. 

This slip has been emailed to probably tens of thousands  of email accounts, judging by the number I have personally received, so there is nothing, absolutely nothing, new here.

Now tell me this: is publishing this slip &lt;i&gt;as received&lt;/i&gt; more wrong than the message it contains? I personally do not think so, this might lead to allegation of corruption of a public official who allegedly received this vast amount of money into his personal account. This to me is extremely important and the public official in question, especially being in the position he enjoys, should come out and transparently deny or confirm the allegations.

That to me is much more of an important issue than &lt;i&gt;re&lt;/i&gt;publishing what has become public domain.</description>

		<description>&quot;Brilliant. You surely have your priorities set quite nicely.&quot;

And posting unconfirmed / alleged stories that will most definitely tarnish someone&#039;s reputation shows you have your priorities in order as well.  I am not surprised you were interrogated in the past and would be surprised if more lawsuits do not follow.  Your complete disregard for others, as you point fingers and make unfounded accusations, is disgusting and, frankly, getting kind of old.  I was impressed with your maturity levels in the past - but your recents rants have exposed you as anything but mature.</description>
