The Cannibal Warlords of Liberia (Full Length Documentary)

VICE travels to West Africa to rummage through the messy remains of a country ravaged by 14 years of civil war. Despite the United Nation's eventual intervention, most of Liberia's young people continue to live in abject poverty, surrounded by filth, drug addiction, and teenage prostitution. The former child soldiers who were forced into war have been left to fend for themselves, the murderous warlords who once led them in cannibalistic rampages have taken up as so-called community leaders, and new militias are lying in wait for the opportunity to reclaim their country from a government they rightly mistrust.

I'm with you here Brother and Damn Straight!!!

[joel750]

Serves them right for being SO STUPID enough to let themselves be captured and put into captivity.The Japanese the Germans the Italians & the Americans would stand their ground and fight to the last man right before being made into slaves! But knowing the Black race would sit still & be captured, well this is on them. A Noble race would fight...

[joel750]

I understand what you're saying but my friend: These people have all the time & chances to change their lives for the better & you're right they don't know any better.But what kills me is they don't have the drive & the foresight to change.70 years ago Japan Korea Singapore Hong Kong are no better than this country but look at them now! I have never seen a bunch of people hate progress but loves war destruction & despair and Liberia is one of them along w/ Somalia.

[David Fair]

Holy fucking shit!

[joel750]

And you're a genius huh!? If you are, please name me some brilliant & famous black scientists, Astrophysicist Mathematicians & Aerospace engineers. that's right there's NONE! Your kind is the Blight of this world & what's wrong with it. It's not difficult to see that the stars in this documentary film have the same ape cousins doing the armed robbery carjackings gangbanging drive-by shootings here in America.Call me whatever you want but the fact is your kind are still apes...

[joel750]

Please do tell us countries governed by blacks that prospered by the exception of Jamaica. I'm telling you there's absolutely NONE whatsoever! Look at Somalia & Liberia Cameroon and the rest of them...these countries are poorer than a rat in sewer because blacks predominantly don't know how to run things properly. Most but not all of these people are uneducated dimwitted and violent. Just put some white people in those governments and see how it becomes effective.

[joel750]

I'm not surprised on what you discovered, after all white people created almost everything around you. White people are always gonna be SUPERIOR on all races & according to what you stated, it proves it. I have no qualms whatsoever over this although I'm not even white myself, nut i really admire white people specially the Germans the Swedes & the Japanese.From cars to weapons to cutlery they make the very best stuff.America is catching up w/ them...

no. its poverty with ignorance

[krrrruptidsoless]

Not knowing, or another word for it is ignorance, helps to create beliefs. And beliefs help to create religion. Religion is then used to control the ignorance that believes in it. Because the people that are believing in religion, have bred it into their lineage.They lost the reality of where it came from by breeding and thus the children acting it out, have helped to turn ignorance into insanity. Which to the leaders is magic, and if turned to something good it is a miracle, but never real

[Brayson Zarra]

Its probably the drugs thats causing them to act like this.

Must be experimental psychological warfare drugs.

Of course America behind this.
