		CLARK is, on the surface, identified as an anti-government left-winger, although he often crosses over to the right, but his actions, placed in the context of the current political situation, in which Iraq is planning to launch a biological attack on the United States or Israel, clearly indicates RAMSEY CLARK is a dirty NAZI pig.

	Trying to figure out Ramsey Clark was never easy
		Ramsey Clark, the neighbor, is soft-spoken, modest and polite, whether taking down the family wash to the laundry room, or trudging back and forth to his poorly lit, sprawling rather unkempt law office a few blocks away from his 12th St. co-op apartment.
		Clark has represented a few radicals on the left who have earned sympathy, including Father Daniel Berrigan, the antiwar priest, and Lori Berenson, who comes from Chelsea, got involved in radical politics in Peru, was accused of leading a terrorist organization there and was sentenced in the late ’90s to life in prison.
		Clark’s efforts, along with others, won Berenson a civilian trial in 2001, the charge was reduced to “terrorist collaboration,” and she was sentenced to 20 years — a very stiff penalty — which will probably stand, barring U.S. pressure — unlikely under the Bush regime.

	Al-Ahram Weekly \| Profile \| Ramsey Clark: A voice of reason
		Clark served under US President Lyndon Johnson between 1967-69, a time when the country was experiencing a profound crisis of confidence, not least in its political institutions.
		Clark's only motivation seems to be a deep sense of social justice, and it is only admiration for him that I feel as we chat in the lobby of the Conrad Hotel, Cairo.
		Clark is a fierce critic of US foreign policy and domestic human rights abuses and his determination to fight for justice has earned him many enemies.
