Who is Ramsey Clark?

The Antiprotestor Journal sums Clark up in a few short paragraphs:

Clark is well-known for having far left political views and for providing legal counsel to numerous dictators and mass murderers. He is also highly critical of most US foreign policy. Though he accuses the Bush administration and Israel of Nazi-like war crimes, it is interesting to note that Clark's client Karl Linnas, an ex-Nazi concentration camp guard in Estonia, was reponsible for the murder of some 12,000 resistance fighters and Jews during WWII.

Clark has also represented the deposed president of Liberia, Charles Taylor during his 1985 fight against extradition from the United States to Liberia, and in 1989, fringe candidate Lyndon LaRouche, who faced charges of conspiracy and mail fraud.

Clark also represented Slobodan Milosevic in the International Criminal Court and Elizaphan Ntakirutimana, a leader of the Rwandan genocide.

He also represented PLO leaders in a lawsuit brought by the family of Leon Klinghoffer, the wheelchair bound elderly tourist who was shot and tossed overboard from the hijacked Achille Lauro cruise ship by Palestinian terrorists in 1986.

Prior to the start of the second Gulf War Clark was retained by the state of Iraq, serving as legal counsel for the Hussein regime.

Clark is affiliated with VoteToImpeach, an organization advocating the impeachment of President George W. Bush. He has been an opponent of both Gulf Wars.

It is also widely claimed that his association with Lyndon LaRouche in the early 1990s went beyond legal counsel to advocacy.

He is the founder of the International Action Center, which has much overlapping membership with the Workers' World Party, a Communist organization.

Clark and the International Action Center helped found the anti-war group A.N.S.W.E.R. (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism) a major organizer of the large anti-war rallies that preceded the start of Operation Iraqi Freedom.

During protests organized by A.N.S.W.E.R. criticizing the Bush administration, speakers were forbidden to criticize his client, Saddam Hussein.

So there, you have it. Ramsey Clark: Far-leftist America-hater, and the mass murderer's best friend.

Thank you Rocco.
