The Press caught up with Kilari shortly after he
returned to Houston. The last 48 hours had been rough. Kilari touched
down in Houston around 1 a.m. From there, he drove to his home in
Huffman, patching an Associated Press reporter in to his talks with
Taylor and Taylor's wife, Jewel.
Remarkably, sometime around 10 a.m., he slept, which is something the 43-year-old rarely seems to do. Just clearing five feet, with a light frame and charming smile, Kilari is a bottle rocket, ready to jump in his plane and blast off to see some notorious leader at a moment's notice. Taylor's isn't the only warlord's number in his cell phone. Kilari claims to have spent quality time with Saddam Hussein and Slobodan Milosevic. He considers it a testament to his insider status that he knew Al Qaeda's Abu Musab al-Zarqawi when he was a "nobody."
Kilari is incensed that Condoleezza Rice and Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo took credit for inducing Taylor's surrender. Three years ago, he says, they also stole credit for Taylor's resignation. Kilari wants them both impeached.
