Some are more equal than the others by Zivka Deleva

I wonder all the time, how comes they the law gives the rights to the criminals to choose whether they would be called prisoners of war or not. If you have been laundering money and trafficking drugs, what’s on your mind to think that some judge should have the magical power to fulfill your desires. And especially if your main argument is that once you were president of a country. And who invented the institute “immunity of an ex-head of state”? What that means, that you can do whatever you want and still not be charged by anything? OK, we are all equal but some are more equal than the others. Panama’s former dictator that ruled the country from 198! 1 to 1989 Manuel Noriega, has been extradited to a Paris court saying to the judge that he wants to be sent to his home and treated as a prisoner of war. The 76-year old general looks week, explained his lawyer. He thinks that Mr. Noriega has the right to “repatriation at the end of captivity”, according to the Geneva Convention. Noriega has been convicted absent in France in 1999 for laundering drug profits and was sentenced to 10 years in prison. He has transferred 2.3 million euros from Colombian drug dealers into French bank accounts. Noriega left the prison of Miami few days ago, after 21 year s as a political prisoner. He was suppose to stay 40 years there, but on the behalf of a good behavior, he has been released. He was caught by former US president George Bush troops, that had the mission name “Just cause”. What a strongman! He has convictions everywhere you can turn. Even at his home country, he is expected with another conviction. !
