Who's Making You Sick Now?

Rod Blagojevich is SICKENING.

Best jury money could buy.

Well, talking about court cases, the press are sickening me.

Charles Taylor's war crimes trial has included evidence of cannibalism, sexual violence including rape, mutilation and genocide.
I mean - really - Joseph D “Zigzag” Marzah was Taylor's Chief of Operations. His testimony is refuted by the defence, but that's their job.

How many crimes this or last century involve an American born dictator accused of encouraging cannibalism of enemies? How many? I mean are they commonplace? Just a quick snippet:
Quote:
He [Zigzag] described NPFL checkpoints where human intestines were used as rope and strung across the road, and human heads were placed on sticks; he said that Taylor had seen many of these checkpoints.
So what makes the headlines?
Naomi fucking Campbell. Turns up late, says the trial is a real inconvenience for her. Yeah, she deserves a cunt-punt, but not front page news in a trial this big. It would be like a stenographer at the Nuremburg Trials breaking a fingernail and it making the headlines.

Argh.
