   Perhaps, it's meant to imply that they weren't at all sane? It
reminds me of when Milosevic had just been kidnapped from the
Yugoslavia and was awaiting "trial" at the hague, how the media --
particularly the NYTimes -- kept on mentioning his "depression"
and his "potential for suicide".

The media never likes to portray their enemies as "sane" or
"rational". Of course, we're suppose to believe that displaying the
capacity to sell out your mother for riches (e.g., Tony Blair) is
typical of the behaviour of normal human beings.
