Comments on: Judges Give Prosecution More Time To “Rearrange Strategies” For The Cross-Examination Of Charles Taylor http://www.charlestaylortrial.org/2009/11/12/judges-give-prosecution-more-time-to-rearrange-strategies-for-the-cross-examination-of-charles-taylor/ International Criminal Justice in the Making Mon, 15 Mar 2010 12:34:46 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: MsTeage http://www.charlestaylortrial.org/2009/11/12/judges-give-prosecution-more-time-to-rearrange-strategies-for-the-cross-examination-of-charles-taylor/#comment-12604 MsTeage Thu, 19 Nov 2009 04:44:38 +0000 http://www.charlestaylortrial.org/?p=4530#comment-12604 1000% absolutely NOT!!! Taylor directly ordered, plotted, and hashed out plans to murderer intimidate civilians in another country because of personal gain and greed. Bush with the Head of State, Powell was the Secretary of State, The Bush administration and Powell went into Afganistan to "fight terrorism"; (whatever you interpret that to be) because of 9/11, they went to Iraq for "weapons of mass destruction", that was never found and than to liberate the Iraqis from Sadam Hussiene. There is no proof that Bush and Powell and his Bush's administration went to Afganistan and Iraq to murder innocent people and to gain "oil" as everyone says. When Soldiers got on the ground, many of them committed heinous crimes against the natives of those two countries, was it because they were under pressure, did the general say "shoot and rape", did the soldiers themselves become lawless or did Bush the Bush administration order dirctly the murder of these people......??? You see Jose it's NOTHING simillar about these two cases except atrocities were committed in another country. OH I forgot to say was Taylor "President" when these crimes in S.L begin or was he a rebel leader........ When someone can prove that the Bush administration (Rice Powell et al., ) intentionally and directly ordered the massacre maiming and rape of Innocent Iraqi and Afgans people as a "war tactic", and it wasn't the soldiers under stress acting that way, or the general ordering it, than we can have a conversation about it. Oh yeah one last thing several Soldiers have been trailed and sentenced to life in prison, some like Pfc. Steven Dale Green, could have even gotten the death penalty. Even as I'm typing there are a couple of Soldiers on trail for murder and rape committed in Afganistan. Even Canada is facing the same situation. Herendous crimes have been committed against the Afgan and Iraqi people, If there is any proof that it was ordered by BUSH POWELL RICE, or anybody else I PRAY that they be brought to justice. But as of now, No proof, No trail. To even compare the two situation is actually quite laughable. With that said I think I'm pretty much done talking about BUSH et al., let's get back to Sierra Leone and Taylor. 1000% absolutely NOT!!! Taylor directly ordered, plotted, and hashed out plans to murderer intimidate civilians in another country because of personal gain and greed.

However, according to you, " the trouble with prosecuting Bush and power is that they themselves did not commit these acts, and it's hard proving that they ordered these acts." However, I beg to differ. The reason why they have not been prosecuted is because they have the "Biggest Guns." This is a world of "might makes right." Teage, don't you think the same standard of measurement that you are applying on President Bush and General Power could be used on President Taylor too? However, according to both the defense and prosecution, President Taylor did not personally commit these crimes for which he is being charged. Not only that, he was never seen or captured in Sierra Leone as an illegal enemy combatant. Instead, they are holding him responsible for the crimes, because according to them, he had influence, control, and supported the RUF. Teage, one justice system, but two different standards, unbelievable. Teage,

Everyone should be perceive equal whether African, black white whatever...but you and I both know that that is not the case. It's quite disheartening, but this is a reality. There is a double standard that exist in the global judicial system. Some people pay for what they did, and others are free to do whatever they want and never pay it's not fair.

Besides, we all make mistake and that's why I gave you the benefit of the doubt. Nevertheless, it was the entire quote. Don't make it seems like it was your typing mistake that cracked me of. Notwithstanding, you are still making the same mistake with this "can't" and can. This time, I will not be generous enough to identify where the mistake was made again. However, it is your responsibilty to correct it, if you deem fit. Finally, I asked you series of questions based upon the specific qoute that made me laughed and you are yet to answer. However, this was your quote and I will restate my questions and expect answer. "GO PROS. GO !!!!! YOU GOT A HARD JOB MS. HOLLIS BUT YOU CAN'T DO IT!!!! This was and still my question. Why do you think this is a hard job for Ms. Hollis, especially after she asked for more time in order to rearrange documents and reconsolidate your position? However,when and how do you know it to be a hard job for her? Did she tell you it was hard or you suspect it to be hard? Teage, you have all the time in this world to respond. But, please answer these questions before the posted date expires. Teage,

Ms Teage, You are such an interesting commentator, I love your postings and open sayings. I will agree with you in some of the highlights you expressed, but, what I said was to allowed equal balance to prevail in the global judicial as the world is a global village and that everyone is perceived equal due to human right. No one US Citizen or any citizen of whichever country should be targeted by global judicial by nepotism as in the case of Chucks. I am also a US Citizen and this could apply to me as a citizen as should anyone else who is a US Citizen. Get me on this, not because Chucks is my 1st cousin, I am not in support of some of the acts he was accused of if they are true. Anyone, be it me or my brother, once you commit a crime of such nature must bear the full weight of the LAW if proven guilty. This is why I said it is not fair for the US Justice System to target a particular person............ it's just ......Bartus Taylor Jr.,...again. Jacon,
