Madoff statue theft: Ripped off from a German movie.



The copper statue was reported stolen from Madoff's $9.2 million mansion on Dec. 22 - about a week after the Wall Street money man was accused of scamming investors in a $50 billion Ponzi scheme.

The statue does not appear to have any damage, and police are continuing to investigate the incident.

Palm Beach police Capt. George Frick said he was not aware of the 2004 German movie The Edukators, in which anti-capitalist activists break into the homes of rich people, move furniture around and leave notes that say "the days of plenty are over."

The activists kidnap a rich businessman, have ideological discussions about money and politics, and then let him go, possibly teaching him a lesson on ethics and morality.

"Interesting," Frick said when told of the film.

I have to admit Madoff used his own people and who ever to get what he wanted. I remember how people talked about Madoff and Greenspan as being the Jewish Leaders and the pride of Israel. Yes an example of what other could never reach. Well not only did Israel form the Palestine Holocaust Massacre but Madoff/Greenspan even stole from their own people and the rest of the World. Where's that pride now? Olmert is indicted as a crook while still running Israel Govenment to wipe out Palestine.
Satan's last run as God takes over.
