Correction to the broadcaster , Liberia was founded 1822 by freed slaves from America and she gained her independence from the American Colonization society (A.C.S ) in 1847 upon which Joseph  Jenkins Roberts became the first president of the republic Liberia.

Nonsense. We should take responsibility for European evils in the past by helping africa today. Law is not european moral judgement when it is being carried out with the jurisdiction of Sierra Leone, backed by the global UN, and with African prosecutors. Universal Human Rights are universal because they not only apply to everyone, everywhere but because violations of them are supposed to be prosecuted by everyone, everywhere.

you are displaying what i like to call unnecessary white anger.The same way I understood that you were not speaking of all jews,you need to also understand that I was not speaking of all whites.This is one of the reasons why the evildoers will continue to divide the masses of this country.I apologize for having made you feel uncomfortable...I am still debating on whether I should change my language to accomodate your feelings or should you learn on how to become less sensitive.What do u think?

Thank you for sharing the truth but I ain'tt got a damn thing to be thankful for as far as having had and still having people in this world living as slaves,regardless of their skin color.Who said I was safe?Don't you know that Obama can declare you or I enemy combatant any time he feels like that and the constitution can no longer protect you?U began sounding sane ,then turned insane on me.....Don't take insults because you happen to be white.I have met white who were dire revolutionaries until

@eoriol1955 And by the way, I personally think you're RACIST, typing Black with a capital B, and typing white without such a character. I feel racially offended and discriminized! What? Black=God? Black=a continent, country, state, city??? Sound familiar? It's simply the way you think. And it surely is not considered a racist thing because all the excessive and exagarated rights you have been given make you privilegded. So tell me, who exactly is more and more racist? The Blacks or the Whites?

@eoriol1955 Perhaps when a World Socialist or Communist Society will triumph over the Globe...

And we all know, that will never happend. The Jews who rule America and give you your minority rights will most certainly make sure of that. Can't you see everything is set up? Can't you see that in this casethe US wanted Taylor doing what he did for more than 10 years?Seeing as how things are in Africa, I bet you don't regret that your ancestors were captured and enslaved in the past. You're safe now

11:00 locked up in Nigeria? correction: he was kept in a estate fit fir royalty. he was later freed and only re-arrested when Nigerian politicians realized the international implications of their actions.

Am I the only one who sees something wrong with this video.We have a Black criminal accused of crimes against Black people yet,white people discussing justice for the victims.Black people are always being told that other Blacks are their enemy and white people are their friends.Charles Taylor and goons like him take their orders from Americans (both white and Black)and Europeans.When are we ever going to see white people on trial for crimes against Africa?

Taylor needs to be burned alive in public.

This is Jokes... Can anyone tell me who going to prosecute GeorgeBush for the war which he created in Middle East, no one... This Human Right thing is bullshit!!

Dont forget 1 man doesnt change the World!!

Westerner, look yourself in the mirror before you judge others!!

[iridiumhexadecimal]

Western powers not only do not recognize the crimes they commited to the african continent and deny any responsability, but also are so miserable that require "donations" to fund an international trial... funny
