France population isn't very better, I can assure you, it's not about been brave.

We just still have a working judiciary system. But for how long? It barely correctly financed and his independence his attacked every days in the oligarchy controlled medias.

I hope you fix your judiciary system one day.

Sarkozy himself tried to reform it and remove a key position in that system the "juge d'instruction" who conducts investigations indepedantly of the executive power in complex cases (like his many cases). It makes the procedures much more efficient and less prone to influence from the government.

Fortunately he failed to do it when he was in power, and this is in my opinion a big factor in his current demise.
