Followup, EFL. MONROVIA - Families emboldened by a lull in fighting headed back to bullet-strewn districts of Liberia's capital on Thursday, as envoys of President Charles Taylor and rebels resumed peace talks in the nearby west African nation of Ghana. Taylor's defense minister Ack! Are you guys nuts? Chuckie's gotta go!! Liberian children were led into the room to plead with all sides to stop the fighting threatening to overwhelm Taylor's last stronghold, Monrovia, the official said. After which they were all drafted, given rifles and sent to the front.
Somebody please put Chuckie away. | ||

#2 "Thug Life" comes to Liberia. It's not like they're not used to it. |

#1 Yes, put Chuckie away. But I am concerned about LURD as well. Do they really represent, as their name claims, "Liberians United for Reconcilliation and Democracy"? Not all reports are positive. LURD fighters often favor LA "gangster chic," and their commanders sport such delightful names as "Dragon Master" and "Nasty Duke." |
