i find it weird that people who believe (in my eyes) even more incredible shit, think this is impossible. those pictures look EXACTLY like the podesta brothers.
people have said those two sketches were supposed to be of the same suspect -- how? they look totally different.
THE PODESTA EMAILS START THE DAY AFTER MCCANN WENT MISSING
Because the pictures, when originally published, were claimed to be two different pictures of the SAME GUY. This is an old, old debunked claim. Yes, the pictures are uncanny, but they were made of one man, and both Podestas cannot be one man.
Mary and Martin Smith, from Ireland, told police they saw a man carrying a child matching Madeleine’s description at around 10pm on Rua da Escola Primaria, 500 yards from the McCanns’ apartment. He was heading towards the beach, did not look like a tourist and did not seem comfortable carrying the child, they said.
Their evidence was compelling, but it was only in October 2013 that two e-fit images of the man, compiled by police from descriptions given by Mr and Mrs Smith
It was a couple that was together and saw the same man.
There was no debunking. They look different enough to be of two people. The only unproven claim is that the Podesta brothers were in Portugal at the time of Madeline McCann's disappearance.

This is not true. The pictures were from two different whitnesses that each saw one man. Since neither whiteness saw two men the police did not know if there were two. So these could have been very different accounts of the same man or each whitness saw a different man. Which makes more sense?

I have a simple explanation for varied witness accounts of the 'man' seen with Madeline: John and Tony RELAYED the abduction to create confusion. They both carried/escorted her at different points and at different places. There ya go. Occams Razor. I firmly believe there is prima facie evidence right now to bring both Podesta's in for questioning on the McCann abduction. This has been a central point since the inception of PG and if it was so easy for the Podesta's to discredit the connection, why have they not done it? They don't want the McCann case back in the news, trust me. And they certainly don't want the World to see their faces next to those computer generated renderings.
Makes me wonder if the focus of her kidnapping was to have each brother be seen carrying her by different wotnesses, and ensuring that by having conflicting accounts of the kidnapper, nobody would believe it unless convinient blackmail evidence happened to leak. Did things get drastically better for the brothers soon after her dissappearance?
Also there is no particular reason to believe the witnesses' stories in detail. There is some evidence the podestas were there, and the images are clearly a match, regardless of who created them or when. I would not really buy the tale of who the efit artist was, since it is obvious the efits were made from photos of the brothers podesta, not witness descriptions from memory. Do remember the McCann press coverage was sketchy from day one. No reason to consider it gospel years after when efits appeared.
Ever seen efits before? They really don't often look exactly like anyone at all but may catch skin tone or distinguishing marks or facial geometry.
Rarely do they match clear frontal photos of investigative subjects. When they do it is because they are engagements of photos or surveillance video, not sketches or true "efit" electronic composites.
And the mole on wrong side? That is just so there can be no lawsuit claiming they used a
likeness of Tony to defame him.
I absolutely believe those are drawings of the Molesta brothers. I do think they were involved, or the efits were used as a call out for other crimes, as some have theorized.
But a two month old article with an unconfirmed source giving confirmation bias is bullshit.
Did you ever think they both Tony and John carried/escorted her, INDIVIDUALLY, at different points? A hand off likely occurred to create confusion. After all, looks like John is lifetime CIA.

how can you dismiss this entirely?

It's two people, there is another witness at the airport, all it takes is to show that person a picture of the Podestas

The source also say that the efits are of the same person, described by two different witnesses.

then it's absolutely possible that they saw different people

it is i suppose. Its also important, though, to note the portugese police put these out in 2013 - independently, before pizzagate
