Just when we all thought he was safely ensconced in Ireland somewhere, up pops Michael Jackson, and it looks like he is heading back to the States and ending 18 months of seclusion in Europe. The Las Vegas Review Journal reports Jackson was on a plane to the United States late Saturday bound for Las Vegas, where he plans a comeback.

Jackson and his three children were due to arrive before midnight at a private executive terminal at Las Vegas' McCarran International Airport, unnamed sources told the Review Journal.

Who is behind the Michael machinations? Las Vegas dealmaker Jack Wishna, according to the Review Journal.

Jackson has been a wandering pariah since being acquitted in California of child molestation charges in June 2005.

Wishna confirmed to the Review Journal that Jackson was moving to Las Vegas and said, "We are working on several projects."

Jackson has not toured since the mid-1990s.

Wishna is a prolific deal maker, and said Jackson "is poised to return to the top of the entertainment world soon." Reported the Review Journal.

american friends. your country is no more. you're now officially in the norh american union.habius corpus is gone. your president has you fighting TWO phony wars. The first in afghanistan is about guarding the poppy fields and maintaining a high level of heroin production. heroin production was at an all time low when the taliban were in charge but now under U.S and british occupation that has all been reversed. And in iraq what do you think is happening? you think your soldiers are there to spread democrasy? yeah right. the reason you were there in the first place was to control the flow of oil being pumped, saddam was defying opec and producing more than he was supposed to, effectively jerking the down. opec didn't like that one bit as it drops the oil price. less oil money for them. so saddam had to go. If you think the war was for humanitarian reasons ask yourselves why clinton didnt interviene in rwandha back in the 90's when hundreds of thousands were killled in the genocide. ask yourselves why the major powerful countries in the world led by the U.S are not going into darfur in the sudan to stop the mass slaughter there. Wake up! stop worrying about what MICHAEL JACKSON or any other celebrity are up to and start reading the works of people such as seymour hirsh, john pilger, greg palast, alex jones, paul watson.

Michael Jackson is a dirty guy and a liar. He offered money to my mom to keep her from going to court. She turned him down because she was mad about MJ always trying to pull my pants down.

MJ HAD ONE GOOD ALBUM, THRILLER. THAT'S IT. I THINK HE'S MILKED IT LONG ENOUGH AND SHOULD BE CONSIGNED TO HISTORY.

I'm glad that MJ is trying to make a 'comeback'. We all know he has talent. I mean, all personal issues aside, the man has talent that NO ONE can deny. Songwriting, singing, dancing, choreography, mixing and more. If anyone can do it, he can. He's the King of Pop.. he's Michael bloody Jackson! He will always rule to me.

He's so over. I don't care what he performed 20 odd years ago. Part of being a performer is keeping your nose clean and he's certainly failed at that. He's paid off four little boys to avoid trial and that's unforgiveable. The Arviso trial doesn't clean the slate, MJ.

I hope they catch him molesting some little boy in Las Vegas and put him in jail where he belongs.

B.T. Barnum was right. There IS a sucker born every minute and apparently they all go to Vegas and want to see crappy shows.

Michael,is a wise man and Las Vegas is a good place too have a business base! You can be on a flight to anywhere in the world from there in minutes...It is a great place to entertain business accociates. It is a city used to the rich and famous, and their secuity is by far the best in the world due to the casino's pay for it!
The schools and surrounding area, the children could blend fairly unnoticed and attend public or charter school, if Mike choose to send them.
Plus by January 3th, 2007, Mikes muse is moving and will be living within driving distance of Las Vegas. So I expect the creative juices will flow out of the man who gets ideas and reinvents them to his style.
Merry Christmas Michael, Prince, Paris, and Blanket, I hope to see you in Las Vegas.

Always in my heart! I love you too!

Just Cody

The Nevada State Police should start keeping close tabs on him. Las Vegas' reputation as 'sin city' is well earned. A man with his wealth and contacts, probably means he can get and find just about anything he desires.
The posibility of him being supplied with young boys from his private sources or even having young boys brought in from overseas is a possibility.
Perhaps that has encouraged his return. It is much more difficult for him to return to his old ways in Ireland. A proven pederast like him is a threat to younger boys and to law enforcement. Hopefully, he will keep his hands to himself.

Someone said 'proven' peadophile??? Hmmm...if it was proven, then what's he doing still out and about?? Why was he found not guilty??
And he didn't pay off 4 children. He settled the first case out of court. If you watch the interviews and media releases he made at the time, maybe you'd understand why. It's terrible when people gather bits and pieces of information through hearsay and tabliods and then express their opinions as if they were fact.
As to whether or not he can make a comeback. That depends on what you mean by 'comeback'. If u mean, will he make the sort of impact he made in the 80's. NO. I don't think anyone could do that again. That was just a different time.

But can he make a single which will hit the charts? Can he still make good music?? OF COURSE....we're talking about Michael Jackson here. If he wants to, he can.
But I don't know if he really has the passion/fire in him to do it anymore. I don't think he's had that since the mid-90's.
He still has millions of fans around the world...but if he wants them to stay loyal, he needs to give them some encouragement. Show them that he still wants to stay in the game. Maybe perform somewhere are show them what he's got!!
SOMETHING!
