Why didn't the millions of daleks in the stolen earth and journey's end save this dalek it says it was beaming out a distress signal for a while surely they would have heard it when they were flying all over the globe, even if they didn't want to rescue it because it may have been different they would still have wanted to kill it.{{Discontinuity}}

*Why is the Dalek of this story so mind numbingly stupid. The Daleks in Power of the Daleks and Victory of the Daleks where powerless too [the daleks in power at one point didn't even have guns] but they were smart enough to manipulate those around them, lesterson, winston churchil [both of whom were smarter and less corruptable than van statten] This Dalek should have been able to easily manipulate van statten, it could have offered him technology and stories about aliens [even if they were false] and could have then made use of van stattens technology when it got the chance, rather than just sit there silently, it was hardly the master manipulators of power of the Daleks who were able to manipulate both an intelligent , kind scientist and evil rebel or the daleks in victory who were able to manipulate one of the greatest military minds of all time and even the doctor, all van statten [ a foolish arrogant egotistical man who frequently makes mistakes] wanted to know was who the dalek was and it still couldnt manipulate him, deeply stupid unscary Dalek

*The Dalek can find no trace of his race on the Internet. Has no one noticed the events of [[DW]]: ''[[Daleks in Manhattan]]'' / ''[[Evolution of the Daleks]]'', ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks]]'', ''[[Army of Ghosts]]'' /''[[Doomsday]]'' or ''[[The Stolen Earth]]'' / ''[[Journey's End]]''?

::The Dalek is more likely looking for ''present'' information regarding Daleks on earth, in which case he is likely the only one in 2012 itself. In addition, dialogue within various [[Torchwood]] episodes, as well as Remembrance of the Daleks suggests that information about certain events was repressed from public knowledge.

Stolen earth and journey's end were just because there are probably no daleks on earth in 2012 dosent mean there would be no useful info on the internet for this dalek. Also if it had access to the internet it could get access to secret files about extraterrestrials, [it is in van stattens vault] and could therefore find out info from unit and torchwood about , the cult of skaro, stealing of the earth and davros and indeed the daleks from doomsday


*How can van Statten (who seems to own the President) not know what a Dalek is, even though they stole and attacked the Earth 3 years earlier in ''The Stolen Earth'' and ''Journey's End''?
