On this 29/1/17 our earlier comment - those who know of my input and involvement to help set up the ICC - the untold and unwritten issues of that SIROP program and the Yugoslav War and very very strange on this Day one of the leading General at the Trial committed suicide in front of all the Judges and the Court and their reaction, the Justice Benchmark of this World - in Sechelles Seychelles that so call Truth and Reconciliation Commission our then exile workings when Mr Gerard Hoareau was alive - those Super powers involved and their why's. Sir James Mancham was a leading world figure in the Justice circuit and his accolades for his work and impute .

It is remarkable and utterly strange how everybody choose to forget and ignore these facts - before that SIROP program was written, presented and promoted
those Seychellois in exile with Policing experiences and the outside experts and contacts we en-devoured to build and maintain, the same the Seychelles with Military experience and knowledge, those with Justice and legal experiences and capacities - much more important up[on writing that SIROP program we required serious impute form those former exile personalities from Seychelles and those with Justice distinguish service among them Sir George Souyave and he held this responsibility until his death -his fellow Judges across the many places he had worked knowledge and benchmark - those high officials who referred to them about our exile workings and in turn how they communicated and impute.

Earlier we had made another Comment - mentioning that there was no snow to make it it really blue - this 29/11/17, the fact that we had reverted to watching an Arcadian movie on TV about King Arthur, Merlin, Camelot, a supposed daughter of King Arthur who reclaimed Camelot and the fact that Sir James mancham was not with us this 29/11/17 - that surely Mr Gerard Hoareau during the cold Winters of England had watched this story turned into movie/Film
