Not Sending a Cake with a File in It

Nicolas Sarkozy has been detained by police over illegal campaign donations from Muammar Gaddafi.

As Mark Ames so pithily stated, There is, "Nothing cynical at all about Sarkozy’s reasons for wanting Gaddafi dead."

But let us not be cynical. Just because the overthrow of Gadaffi resulted in a hell-hole where slave markets have been established doesn't mean that it was a failure:

Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy has been taken into police custody for questioning over allegations that he received campaign funding from the late Libyan leader Col Muammar Gaddafi.

Police are investigating alleged irregularities over the financing of his 2007 presidential campaign.

Police have questioned him previously as part of the probe. Mr Sarkozy has denied any wrongdoing.

The centre-right politician failed to return to power in 2012.

Judicial sources said he was being questioned in Nanterre, a suburb in western Paris.

In 2013, France opened an investigation into allegations that his campaign had benefited from illicit funds from Gaddafi.

Please, don't let him out ……… EVER!!!
