The sexual assault case against ex IMF boss Dominique Strauss-Khan is close to collapse, it was tonight revealed.

The New York hotel maid who accused Strauss-Khan of raping her in his $3,000-a-night suite, lied to investigators, law enforcement sources told the New York Times.

Despite a wealth of forensic evidence against the 62-year-old, prosecutors have dismissed a lot of what the maid said about the alleged encounter, according to the newspaper.

Don’t have a great deal of sympathy for either party here. They both deserve what they get.

If the U.S. free press were committed to truth instead of propaganda, its journalists would discover the truth in this case and bring it to the public--and not only in this case but in all cases.

Unfortunately, the U.S. free press is a propaganda machine; its so-called "journalists" spew forth propaganda with no interest whatsoever in truth; and truth for its own sake is not merely of no concern but is, in fact, scorned.

The scorn of truth is the fundamental failure of Western Civilization and the fundamental cause of its decadence and destruction.

Another clue: Cyrus Vance’s theory of the case = short, fat, 62-year old Frog intellectual chases 6 foot tall Guinea peasant around the room and overcomes her resistance.

According to the two law enforcement officials, the woman had a phone conversation with an incarcerated man within a day of her encounter with Mr. Strauss Kahn in which she discussed the possible benefits of pursing the charges against him. The conversation was recorded.

That man, the investigators learned, had been arrested on charges of possessing 400 pounds of marijuana. He was among a number of individuals who made multiple cash deposits, totaling around $100,000, into the woman’s bank account over the last two years. The deposits were made in Arizona, Pennsylvania, Georgia and New York.

They also learned that she was paying hundreds of dollars every month in phone charges to five different companies. The woman insisted she only had a single phone and said she knew nothing about the deposits except that they were made by a man she described as her fiancé and his friends.

In addition, the official said, she told investigators that part of her application for asylum included a previous rape, but there was no such account in the application. She also told them that she had been subjected to genital mutilation, but her account to the investigators differed from what was contained in the asylum application.

He’s defending himself to the best of his ability, which is his right. Wouldn’t you?

All I do know for certain is that after the charges were filed and announced (along with the arrest) the media has been more than eager to go along with the ‘fact’ that he was a rapist and there was a huge protest by maids against him (and rape in general) and everyone was crucifying him, including his neighbors who made it patently clear that he wasn’t welcome to live there, instead of just being (at least in public) noncommital and discreet.

The French are endowed by their creator to have sex with anyone they desire at any time.

And to surrender to everyone else, and to receive protection from the US and to collect monetary aid from the US to cover any damages they suffer that the US is unable to prevent.
