Death Watch Beatle 41 Posted December 16, 2004 I was scanning through this article about the former Panamanian dictator's blood pressure problems when I read that he has an apartment suite in prison.

football_fan 42 Posted December 16, 2004 According to this article below, he is scheduled to be released in 2007, as they have deducted several years off his sentence for good behaviour. Noriega hospitalized Manuel Noriega is in prison as a result of trumped up charges by the U.S. govt. He only got on President George HW Bush's bad side when he refused to allow Panama to be used as a staging ground for covert operations against Nicaragua.

Guest Bhwglory2 Posted February 17, 2005 Heard on Coast To Coast am with Art Bell that This guy who is paying for not following orders from the new ever-emerging New World order, was now in Marion Illinois: Same hotel that Son of Sam and John Gotti resided. Hell on earth! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Eduardo N Posted November 18, 2005 Couldn't be that Noriega was removed from power for human rights violations and for being the banking country of choice for all of the Columbian drug cartels?? He was such a good guy just ask any Panamanian. I'll take the New Order over the Old Order anyday. -E Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RobertMugabe 437 Posted July 25, 2016 A wonderful man and ambassador. They give out Noble Prizes left right and centre these days, even that girl who got shot on her way to school got one, but this man never got one, great injustice. Easily makes my top 5 greatest humans of the 20 century. 1)Mother Theresa 2)Idi Amin 3)Robert Mugabe 4)Noriega 5)Paul Burrell 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,538 Posted June 16, 2017 Just realised this means all the dictators at the pool party from the "Petoria" episode of Family Guy are now dead (Milosevic, Hussein, Gadaffi, Castro, Kim Jong-Il, Amin and Noriega himself). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
