Barbara Bush theft queries.
A thief stole from Barbara Bush her purse and cell phone while dining in Buenos Aires. According to reports, Barbara Bush was in Buenos Aires, in a secret mission after her twin sister, Jenna visited neighbor Paraguay working as an intern for UNICEF. The activities of the 24-year-old ladies were kept under secret by the US authorities.
The "secret mission" idea may not be just more Kremlin humbug. It seems that clandestine and often morally despicable activities involving junior female family members of US and UK senior statesmen has never been uncommon, as instanced for example in the case of the late Pamela Churchill/Harriman, married to a Churchill - now as then the Churchills were a very seedy crowd, Winston himself being considered by some as a worse creator of genocides as Hitler - and concerned later with such as Aly Khan and to the american Averell Harriman. Possibly it all simply saves taxpayer money, effectively several activities thus being covered at once, but I doubt it.
Anyway, in the present case the US Secret Service was guarding Barbara when she was robbed, but failed to act, apparently, because she was not with her belongings at the time they were stolen, again apparently, from her table in a restaurant. What reports confirmed is that Barbara was spending her first night in town and went to the picturesque neighborhood of San Telmo, as all tourist do in Buenos Aires, for dinner.
The US Embassy to Buenos Aires, promised to release an statement, but later told journalists that all information would be given from Washington. ABC news for example, do not mention the ' secret mission' angle. Also, the Saddam Hussein angle of a series of 'doubles' is not beyond question.
IMO: Perhaps involvement with known celebrities simply goes to some people's head and makes them talk, but I doubt if that is the explanation for the apparent witholding of information..
