#3 I wonder where Mssr Verge does his banking... Seems to me that backtracking from whomever pays his bill (specifically the account from which these funds are disbursed) might be an excellent way to locate some of the missing Iraqi money stolen by Saddam & Co. Assuming it's not France, of course...

#4 Verges is despised by most people here in France: he will defend ANYONE provided case is controversial and he can do some harm to France or the West.

And in fact at times he has harmed his client in order to get piublicity. One of them was sentenced to life in jail because Verges tried to make a case on French racism instead of concentrating on the many holes of the accusation case who have let the guy free. But verges didn't care about him. He is a bastard

#5 I wonder how much Chirac paid Verge to defend Saddam and keep him quiet?

#6 Prancing about in front of an Iraqi jury and judge spouting a language other than Arabic may not be the best path to an acquittal.

#7 He just wants to stay in training until Chirac is in the dock...
