Quite frankly, your questions are kind of easy, but hard at the same to answer. I could answer it, but remember, he is still in the hands of the powerful. Just remember one thing. ULIMO-K Kromah, contested this gone by senatorial election. No problems. Ellen has announced she will contest the presidential election in 2011. No qualms. Prince Johnson has expressed his declaration of intent to run for president in 2011. No queasiness.

BUT, I DON’T KNOW OF “THE MAN GHANKAY.” RIGHT NOW HIS ACQUITTAL IS OF PARAMOUNT CONCERN. HOWEVER, WHO KNOWS THE FUTURE?

Secondly, I am aware that somewhere, somebody is sweeping his jail (CT’s jail) what will happen if proved not guilty? Is he to be paid for the torture and force imprisonment?

Thirdly, suppose he (CT) wants to contest as a president in Liberia, is he going to be accepted?

Mr. Thompson, I don’t know where were you in Liberia during the inception of the Liberian civil war; for other than Samuel and his henchmen almost all Liberian supported the NPFL invasion. It is sad that those kids are on drugs; but to blame Mr. Taylor soley for that is
partiality at it best. ULIMO-J, ULIMO-K, LPC, LURD, MODEL LDF all of whom took advantage of Liberian youth.

I agree fully that the youth of Liberia need help in meeting the challenges of post-war Liberia; and one way of responding to this need is to be truthful to them and not serve them with seeds of hate and barrels of lies. Yes, Mr Taylor started the war but the ruins and carnage of Liberia can not and should not be attributed to him alone.

If I may, how do you suppose a tyrant like SKD would have vacated power? And where were you at the start and during the war? And what was position on the war? And finally how do you suppose we help those kids and rebuild Liberia? You may choose to answer or not.

Maybe, i would have felt different if CT was tried for crimes the NPFL committed in Liberia rather than this bogus claim of atrocities he allegedly committed in Sierra Leone.

Prince Johnson who allegedly savagely murdered the sitting president at the time, was not served arrest warrant. But it is Yeaten, that rumor had it he was involved in the slain death of Mr. Dokie. Ellen and Brownie Samukai can not be serious. What an irony. Ellen, implement the TRC report first before going after perceived enemies. Didn’t I say these guys will be a victim of their own trap? it is happening. What has happened to the TRC report? DEAD!!!! I knew it.

When did Tom Woewiyou realize that Taylor deviated from the plans? So if Taylor deviated, is that justification of Woewiyou forming another armed group (CRC) which killed more innocent people in Gbanga and other places in Liberia? Bear in mind now, it was the same Tom, who came back and apologized to Taylor and served as a senator for Grand Bassa county on the popularity of Taylor’s NPP. Lib, why will he come back if the man deviated and still deviating? Nice try though.

This is the very first post of yours that at least, has a minimal passing grade of 70%. You were very slendid and to the point. I almost agree with you in its entirety. But I’m very skeptical because of your previous posts. Anyways, I served in the world’s most power military to ever exist on the face of the earth. I mean, the U.S. Military, with two degrees earned in the U.S. I was told by friends and some high ranking military top brass of the AFL, to come and help the Liberian military. I told them, I will never do it. My reason was, I was not taking orders from any Nigerian man who is serving as a Chief of Staff of the military that is not even a citizen of Liberia. I also said, Ellen had no business appointing a Nigerian man, who wears the Nigerian “flag” patch and insignia on his collar device within my chain of command. This Nigerian man did not take any oath to defend and protect the constitution of Liberia against all foreign and domestic enemies and to bear true faith and allegiance to the same. So John, lets take our country back and move on. But Ellen and the rest of the failed politicians will not do it. Because they are weak. As the result, they will have to rely heavily on the international community for support and everything.
