I KNOW !
Jihad Jim and others will call me a racist but honestly folks I do not know if this " Dude" was a brother .
YOKOSUKA NAVAL BASE, Japan — Two witnesses said Thursday that they didn’t see the knife coming before USS Gary sailor Joshua David Williams stabbed them.
The witnesses, identified only as “Lady A” and “Lady S,” testified with a screen separating them from the gallery and the defendant in the first day of Williams’s trial Thursday at the Yokohama District Court in Yokosuka.
“I ordered him to leave and then I heard a sound. ... I thought I was being bitten or punched at first, then I thought about the knife and so I looked down and saw blood oozing out,” said Lady A. “I was shocked that it happened.”
Williams, 20, is accused of attempting to murder the two Japanese females — 16-year-old Lady A and 26-year-old Lady S — on the morning of July 5, 2007, in an off-base apartment in Yokosuka.
But while Williams admitted to stabbing Lady A in the abdomen and Lady S 17 times in the back, shoulder, waist and head, he didn’t have murder on his mind, he said.
“I had no desire to kill,” Williams said, standing in front of the court Thursday in civilian attire. He also disputed the claim that the two survived because they escaped — Lady A by jumping from a balcony, Lady S by shutting herself in the washroom.
“Both of my actions were stopped by my own will,” Williams said. “I stopped on my own.”
The story of the morning unfolded in four hours of testimony Thursday in the first of three sessions devoted to the case. Prosecutor Yumiko Fujishima characterized Williams in her opening argument as “upset about being ignored” by Lady A and frustrated with life on base. Defense Attorney Yasutoshi Murakami countered that Williams was just “confused” about being treated badly by one of his friends.
“He felt as he was not treated like a human being but like a pet dog or a slave,” Murakami said.
Does anyone know ?

Re: I KNOW !
Zimbabwe was once the garden spot of Africa. Their agriculture output far exceeded their demands resulting in them being a major exporter of food. While under the former government, Rhodesia, they were a center for health, education and manufacture.
Today 2 million are in danger of starvation without outside aid.
It seems to me to be impossible for a country to fall so far in despair as a result of a change in government.
I am not saying bring the evil white folks back because these folks are much happier now that they are in authority .

Rapper Young Jeezy was charged with driving under the influence and speeding after he was pulled over on an Atlanta highway early Wednesday.
The multi-platinum-selling artist, whose real name is Jay Jenkins, was driving a Corvette when he was stopped about 2:30 a.m. on Interstate 85, police department spokesman Officer James Polite said.
The arresting officer noticed the vehicle did not have a license plate, but Polite could not say how fast Jenkins was driving.
Jenkins was charged with speeding, driving with no proof of insurance or license plate, having an open container, reckless driving and driving impaired by alcohol or drugs.
