456 I just posted a short series on my website, a portrayal of notorious criminal defense lawyer Jacques Vergès. You'll find it in the portfolios section at www.amrohamzawi.com. Vergès' clients have included both leftwing and rightwing terrorists, war criminals, and militants, including Nazi war criminal Klaus Barbie, international terrorist Ilich Ramírez Sánchez (aka Carlos the Jackal) and former Khmer Rouge head of state Khieu Samphan. In 2002, he offered to represent former Serbian President Slobodan Milosević. In late 2003 when the United States arrested Saddam, Vergès also offered to defend Saddam. When asked if he would have defended Hitler, he replied, "I'd even defend Bush... But only if he agrees to plead guilty." 0 2009-08-07T14:12:04Z 0 2009-08-07T14:12:04Z false 29322 false 20336 2009-08-07T14:12:04Z Paris true 2010-02-07T00:00:00Z false new-work-through-a-glass-darkly-vergs-makes-his-case 1 2009-08-07T14:12:04Z 20336
