The court and prosecution told us this is not about Liberia and we are playing by the rule. However, because you guys have realized there is no sufficient evidence to bring conviction verdict, you guys reverted into bringing in Liberia as an indicator of President Taylor's trademark. However, whenever thats happens, we will respond proportionally. Teage,

According to you, there has been no formal charges brought against anybody who committed atrocities in Liberia except Chucky Taylor, who was not tried in Liberia. But, again, if that happens, Liberia will be destabilized. Teage, I don't know if I can agree with you about Liberia will be destabilized until you can give proofs. Teage, it is harder than you may think. I can assure you like Noko4/5, that there will be no war crimes court in Liberia as long as President Johnson Sirleaf is in power/alive. However, that is why the west decided to use the "back door" way to nail this innocent man about Sierra Leone mess and not Liberia, since infact, he is still very popular in Liberia. I understand the desired impact that you are advocating on behalf of the two countries. But, we don't have the means to effect that, except we get help from these people. That is why when Mr. David Crane, the architect of the court said, he has a quiet pride in the people of Sierra Leone for making this to happen; I asked him, why his proud has to be quiet. If he truly believes that it was the people of Sierra Leone that made this thing to happen? Teage, this thing is bigger than you may think. Teage,

I talked about protected witnesses when I made reference to King Gray. However, I strongly encourage you to go back and re-read my previous post and tell me how well you understood it. Notwithstanding Moses Blah and the other names mentioned are not protected witnesses and I made mention as evident. Teage,

Except for Chukie Taylor who was not trailed in Liberia. The Liberian government needs to figure out a way to charge not only Taylor but others sitting in governmental positons who have committed trails against humanity, until they can do that they cannot make a move because Liberia will be destablized, with that said. Why would they bring charges against Taylor and not the others. I want Taylor in jail for crimes committed in Liberia but Charles Taylor is not the only one who fought in Monrovia, Justice will not be served for all Liberians affected during the 14 year war, if only Taylor was indictied and not anyone else, even I will demand that every other war-lord be put on trail. I support the Recommendations of the TRC and I want to see all the "trigger happy" people in court!!!! Liberia is 100% indication of Taylors brutality is what I meant. He showed in Liberia that he will stop at nothing for power. So i can see him doing the same in Sierra Leone, controlling RUF members like pieces in a chess game. Does that mean my opinion is correct......who knows. I am following the trail just like you and waiting for the "fat lady to sing".
