Future Guardians of Peace

[Libdiamond]

Man.. This video brought tears in my eyes. This is my home and this is were I was born. I really miss Lofa. Can't wait to be there this December. Thanks for the project. Hope to follow your foot step. It motivates me more to continue my work. Voinjama City!! I'm coming back home Mama...

[mexicanabaiana]

Beautifully done, very touching. Brings to light an important issue that we don't know too much about.

[BarCodeBullet]

It really is horrible that kids with such beautiful brains capable of so much more get forced into such things as this started by adults who take so little time to consider what they do and how they will be looked upon afterwards.

I refuse to recognize Barack Hussein Obama as President of the United States of America because he is not a natural born citizen and therefore uneligible according to the U.S. Constitution. The U.S. Supreme Court refuses to even discuss the many lawsuits recently filed by Philip J. Berg, Alan Keyes and many others. The media refuses to discuss it. Just watch some of the videos on my page. If you agree that the U.S. Supreme court should hear the facts and make a ruling then "Friend Us" cb

[utubepunk]

Good grief. Couldn't you find another video to spam? Get over it- your guy lost. Quit crying about it already.

[Libdiamond]

Look buddy.. It is very ignorant to bring that conversation over here when we are watching and conversing on rebuilding the lives of these poor people that have gone through so much. Get a life cause u cannot turn back the hands of time. Barrack is ur president like it or not!! Now, let me continue watching my videos...

[KingDemonMaster]

I'm guess the trainers trained the as "Gorilla Fighters" these people (Gorilla Fighters) where trained to be able yo kill a person in under 15 seconds. if this is what these children are learning i feel very sorry because this training could cause death. either by the training presure or the trainers. but like i said this is only my guess.

[williamemarks]

Well done! i was familiar with the work of "everyday gandhis" in Liberia prior to see this short film - let's hope that other emulate the work effort of Cynthia Travis, Andre Lambertson and others. Great to empower people with story as they transition from war to peace.

[BigEzel]

It is good to see that the horrors of war does not consume all that it touches.

[Rondart]

Good video, but I hope it's not staged. What are those papers for anyway?

I don't deny however, that their lives must've been hell.

[xCYN116]

Touching video.

[Muleskinner1776]

I fail to understand why this america's responsabillity? Maybe cuz everyone else has thier hand out,these people,who I don't give a damn about,offend with thier begging and weakness,just fuckin' die already!

[Rata4You]

Slavery still exists in Africa...I'm not sure why the issue is only about child soldiers when anybody can come and buy a child there and enslave him. Is there something right abou that? That shit's been going on since Europeans bought slaves from Africa and brought them to America.

[Libdiamond]

Yes, we know thats a fact. But war is not the answer to peace. I disagree with you on saying that the US should be destroyed. Lets think positive.

[lawless9000]

This video really hit me. I used to teach English in an ESL class...I had a teen from Liberia-he was made to kill his parents under duress. He was tortured and drugged by warlords. My God, he will never be alright-there is a teen that never really had a life. It makes me sick to see have it all ungrateful punks complaining about how their ipod isnt as good as their friends' or some such. I suppose America doesnt know real horrors-good or bad take it for what it is worth.

[Rata4You]

That's a pretty lame argument...we have to feel shame for our achievements simply because another nation can't get their shit right.

If a wild animal has the sense to bring food to it's young, how is it that a human species in that part of the world continues to bring more babies into the world. It's common sense that you're gonna have to feed it somehow even while you yourself are starving.

I truly believe they are a nation of idiots & I have no pity for them.

[Libdiamond]

And I do believe u are an idiot for saying what you said.  People like u have no sense of feelings or dignity for human lives. Your day will come. Any one that curse the children of God shall one day face their punishment. So keep running ur mouth. All the gold and natural resources u are enjoying.. where in the hell u think they come from. Our people lives are been destroyed while u reap from their sufferings. God will surely Judge u for ur comments!!!

[Rata4You]

The irony in everything you just said is that you are passing judgement. Before you start passing judgement from a bible, know this, it is absolutely prohibited for you to do so if you are a man of the bible. To pass judgement on others invites god to judge you in the same fury.

"For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you." - Mathew

For you its not only hell on earth, but also in the next world, apparently.

[Rata4You]

....anyway, it´s 2010, I don´t believe in god(s), allahs, zuess, apollos. That shit is designed to keep you in check. In a lawless world where people pillaged and raped, consequence had to be introduced. The rich today enjoy peddling this shit so to continue on their way. Original sin ensures you are held in check. Translation, you have sin and therefore be careful about passing judgment lest you be judged. Your inference with exclamation marks is clearly noted. See you in hell.

[Libdiamond]

You are so confused my dear its not even funny... U are flip flopping all over the place. No.. go ahead and quote the bible.. U idiot. Thought u didn't believe in God. Why mentioned the word Matthew and stop? Oh, like i said.. u are lost and ur soul is lost along with u. I won't be there but ur day is right around the corner when u shall regret ur words that u don't believe in any God. Hopefull u brain can register back to this comment.

[tonylybao]

i like it very much

[petecorn]

May peace come to their minds.... we whine about the financial crisis in the west.... we have no idea what a real burden is... !

[Rata4You]

We worked hard for our shit and achievements...why don't you be proud of it. There is no shame in achieving relative civility, commerce & trade and technology. Since when does a nation of idiots on some god forsaken part of the planet have a right to point their finger at our greatness and accuse us of being heathens. Hey, we aren't the one's who still in 2008 sell slaves or create child soldiers. That shit is done by people who don't understand civility in 2008. This aint the dark ages.

[efey71alj]

"in a war they're not gonna teach you your rights..." so true - everywhere!

[TinCanOfBeans]

I feel really sorry for the self-centered racist imbeciles that spew hate and cannot see the value of these young men recognizing the errors and mistakes of their youth's unfortunate circumstances and trying to enact real positive change. Great video.

[whollypink]

i feel srry 4 them. we need 2 do something. i hope the president changes something.

[Rata4You]

Like what? This shit has been this way for thousands of years. Everytime you donate money the more they number...the more suffering. There are millions dying and that will NEVER stop until they stop having babies. You think under our current economic climate we'd be donating billions upon billions to their needs? No. Nature will wipe them out...that's the way it's always been. Natural selection...thinning the herd.

[dubhansstudent]

peace to all who enter here to all who see this to all who have lived this to all who have suffered this may we all accept and trust that things can and will change and this starts with me it always starts with me i send you peace i love you more than you can know

[levmyshkin]

Very well done. Kudos.

[japanesekoi321]

whats wrong with child soldiers? its a better hobby than kids playing video games, FTW let them be! at least they get to go out and kill people, not like in video games which is not real

[Isaachelric]

i totally agree

[V4per]

Your comment is VERY lame

[stiphlerr]

"we need to do something" ... do something or shut up...

[Headmaster85]

Very good video

Hope everything changes.

We need to do smthg as a whole, we can't witness these disasters.

War in Congo is still on going. Thousands of innocent people are dying everyday.

Enough is Enough, We need to do something.

[nardo37]

Another place on the world where people are suffering and so another place where people make other people suffer. Aren't the reasons always one or both of the following? Greed or envy for money and power and religious or racial intolerance. How can we or how can anyone possibly find a solution to this? Will people stop being cruel if they all have plenty of food and a safe and comfortable home, if they and there families are protected from harm?

[nardo37]

Give a man what he wants and he will still not be content because all the people next to him possess the same and so he wants more than them. Of course you are right Headmaster. Maybe the new president of the US will really change something, he is the one who can change the most of all single people in the world.

Life is hope...
