An economics major knows about war strategy? Someone helped Charles Taylor break out of U.S. prison and told him exactly what he needed to do to start a war in Liberia
thank you... people always miss the big picture, if there's a war someone is profiting from it... look at the middle East after the invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq heroin trafficking and production has went up 300%
The court did not at any point prove him guilty even though he may have been guilty.The guy seems to be more intelligent than anyone else in there.Therefore guilty was imposed.We await a time when an American or European Pres is going to be tried in Africa!! Africa wake up , and shame on Olusegun Obasanjo former pres of Nigeria for letting down the African Union and ECOWAS efforts
I debunk your statement when you mentioned "intelligent". He's not intelligent, if he was intelligent, he should have the fight with his mind and education instead of guns and knives.
He got Doe into power and then got butthurt he was sacked by Doe so forced a Prince to eat Doe so he could take power. He caused 2 wars in Liberia and one in Sierra Leone.
i dont understand wht general butt naked who ate the hearts of children and killed thousands is free but the man who fought agaist them is serving 60 years
What pains me the most is that the US which is like a father to Liberia could just stepped in and prevented all the atrocities from happening back in Doe's time. If they led and stepped in like Liberia had WMDs then those people wouldn't have to die, those women won't be raped and those child soldiers will have a different future. Beautiful country sad history.
I can never forgive the United States for what this country did to Liberia. America is responsible for Liberia's problems, and indeed, Africa's problems.
I still ask myself why we fought in Liberia? The so called Charles Taylor freedom fighters that (so they say ) came to liberate Liberia did worst than Samuel Doe.
Mishpacha Brucha Mr. Taylor was, and is too smart for the CIA to push around like the way other leaders have. America likes to make fool out of anyone who will stand out to them.
In order 2 determine if and when a question is leading you have to take into account its relevance to the issue under question.... if that is correct then is it plausible that the prosecution did not find the defense questions leading...#thinking aloud
Taylor seemed so innocent as someone who can never hurt a fly. He is devoid of emotions indeed irrespective of what atrocities he might have underwent. As long as he was a PAN Africanist and supported the ideology of Kwame Nkuruma; for Africans to Unite and trade among themselves i support him. It is not lost in me that Westerns are always against leaders who advocate the unity of Africa.They(westerns) always want to be seen as civilizations who are assisting Africa whereas the main aim is to milk the African's minerals dry in the process.
Well, this is what happens when you are playing the living chess. I have a great respect for you as my former president, though, you made some mistakes in the middle game. You were blessed and lucky to have dragged it to a stalemate.
The system of his country we want to change. The West has sign a contract with his country which is ion mining contract 100 years, he want to change that system but its too late then he ask the youths working there should earn us dollars payment. Very sad but he stand development
Folks,we see no reason why former president charles G Taylor is still in prison (jail). The American government shall see reason to release our former president.We await to see sooner or later please oo. 🙏🙏
no, the fool had free will, no one made him do it, he did it himself. he killed thousands of people for his own greed and has no remorse for it whatsoever. save me the story about those in the west. Seems like you are one of those who would jump off a bridge cause someone told you to do it.
so this decendant of American free slave actually went on trial for the role he played? intresting, he's a smooth talker and loves telling long stories lol
It is so often the case that acts of war are allowed to play out before the worlds eyes.. Then after evil has been done, monsters like this are sometimes brought to justice. It looks so civilized. People in legal costumes acting with decorum and supposed civility administering punishment to one guy when all is done. The suffering continues and the killers remain and the world goes round and round....
letsif am not Defending this Man, George Bush lied and invade another country kill thousand if not million of innocent people, nothing happened,and that is a war crime, because the UN at the time classified this an illegal war,yet nothing happened,
This guy is self incriminate himself, not much off an articulating type of guy,and most of what he is saying sounds like he is hiding something or out right lies,
The legal system exists to protect those who cannot defend themselves. If an entity or people regardless of colour shows no respect for justice fairness or morality then all should be alarmed.
when you live by the gun you will now be judge by the judges. but every African should be very much aware of america and Brattain especially when you are in politician stands.
Naomi Campbell was very inconsistant,at one point she said she refused to own the diamonds or ddnt want to be associated with Taylors diamonds because she had heard of his atrocities in Liberia,,,later on she said she talked to Taylor because she never knew about the country called Liberia and its president..(So hw dd sh kno abt his atrocities if sh ddnt know th country called Liberia)
People are bleming Charles Taylor for decades of civil war in Sierra Leone, whilst they foreget the papartriotors then Sierra Leoneans who went to seek help from Charles Taylor to bring war into Sierra Leone. Don't look where you fall but look where you heat your foot!!!!!!
It was generally considered and agreed that he gets into the prison, that's why he's in prison today. He was free of most of the charges levelled against him.
As soon as Chalie mentioned democracy some time on 07:40 minutes, I knew it was a flop. You can say that you were driven to improve the welfare of your citizens, but never bring "democracy, liberty, fraternity " into your defence. Yes, Doe was a thug so we have adopted to a thug confrontation....yes I am a warlord and that was the reality, we did fight other warlords. At that time I our hom3land there was an exemption to laws of the British empire. We were fighting honestly to succeed the monstrous b4itish yoke. And so on and so follows. ... then remind the west of their role in extermination of indigenous populations....... a good command of history is a good argument
Charles Taylor should’ve been completely honest. He was already deemed guilty before this show trial started. He should’ve went all Saddam Hussein on them. His fate was sealed. Now I ask you to look where Prince Johnson is these days.
If it's right for us to be equal as the civic right adivites said it before, let us continue to practices it, today was Africa, and we went through it tomorrow if it's whoever let them go through it we those who comments Crime against enosence let the world allow you to face charge that is the only way the world will be fair with each other let us stop discrimination and live in the range of the Almighty God the Creator of this wonderful World.. Amen
These international court is doing a great job.But when will Nicolas Sarkozy will also brought here for trial.I think the court is not made for only African leaders.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

We hardly know where AFRICA is...
@Ben_Silverstein34 poor guy.
What a world!!! George bush is suppose to be brought to justice.
all of America should be brought to trial
+cthoe b I am an American and many Americans is pissed over the way our dick taters (dictators) is ruining the world
why
Ayo Okay
Doesn’t diminish what Charlie did
why was this man not put on wanted list when they said broke jail
😢he never brook jail Elen Johnson Sirleaf need to be in this Court
@@MiattaKpangbaicorrect 💯 She is the one who sponsored the team to train in Libya
so the only person who did not eat someone got locked up
He got Doe into power and then got butthurt he was sacked by Doe so forced a Prince to eat Doe so he could take power. He caused 2 wars in Liberia and one in Sierra Leone.
Mr Tony Blair and Mr Bush ect should be here facing charges ect.. ..
9 11 happened under Georges Bush so bringing him here is like saying 9 11 was a''good thing''
Alongside Mr. Obama and Mr. David Cameron
Both of them are war criminals and supportor of genocide
This was just a conspiracy to get rid of Charles Taylor
My question is where are the people in the west who were supplying the weapons . They should also stand trial . This is unfair .
They're all criminals support by the world criminal nation USA 🇺🇸 😊
CHARLES TAYLOR WAS SUPPORTED BY IVORY COAST AND BURKINA FASO.America didn't support this war.
He got traded for a basketball ball player
i dont understand wht general butt naked who ate the hearts of children and killed thousands is free but the man who fought agaist them is serving 60 years
dennis handt that's cos idi amin freed to a no' extradition country. So he was clever and he got away with it.
Chad M idi amin is not gereral butt baked
It’s Crazy I Agree...
Speaking of Samuel Doe, Charles Taylor said "I have no direct quarrel with him..." (Why did you lead a coup against him then???) #LOL
Because he didn't relinquish his position
Same thing what happened to him if he didn't step down
What pains me the most is that the US which is like a father to Liberia could just stepped in and prevented all the atrocities from happening back in Doe's time. If they led and stepped in like Liberia had WMDs then those people wouldn't have to die, those women won't be raped and those child soldiers will have a different future.
Beautiful country sad history.
Y you said you kill my ma you kill my pa I will vote for you
No OIL.
Bro they don't even stop the things in the hood 😂😂
Why africans cant judge their presidents
African former presidents can't be judged here in Africa, because no fair judges are here in Africa. They Are all corrupt by accepting bribery.
Because of pride
Taylor did not needed civil war to removed Doe...there were so many ways he could removed doe with the help of the US
He should have not gone to jail for the act of Freetown war.... did the So call Americans president go to Jail for Liberia war?? That was so wronged
He committed war crimes and let’s not he ate people.
I can never forgive the United States for what this country did to Liberia. America is responsible for Liberia's problems, and indeed, Africa's problems.
I still ask myself why we fought in Liberia? The so called Charles Taylor freedom fighters that (so they say ) came to liberate Liberia did worst than Samuel Doe.
HIS WIFE IS VICE PRESIDENT AHAHAHAH
They was eating people killed many Americans working there they can't survive without us
Yes they caused more terror than Samuel Doe
I don't think George Bush, Tony Blair and Obama would be able to hold themselves up and speak up so coherently as this man..
Think again. What?
@@makhorubhiyo4053 ??? expound on your 3 word sentence, please.
When will Africa people we be out from metal slavery. why not take this matter to Ethiopia.
Corruption
this defence lawyer is asking a lot of leading questions and no objections from the prosecutions. is this allowed at the icc?
how else would they find him guilty?
Mishpacha Brucha
Mr. Taylor was, and is too smart for the CIA to push around like the way other leaders have. America likes to make fool out of anyone who will stand out to them.
Mishpacha Brucha lol by the looks of things,this so judge already find him guilty,
In order 2 determine if and when a question is leading you have to take into account its relevance to the issue under question.... if that is correct then is it plausible that the prosecution did not find the defense questions leading...#thinking aloud
its a fake scripted trial
why George W. Bush is still not arrested and charge for the same crime against the people in Afghanistan?
You can see clearly that the court hands were tie 🪢
Taylor seemed so innocent as someone who can never hurt a fly. He is devoid of emotions indeed irrespective of what atrocities he might have underwent.

He was PAL OF GHADAFFI.
The west as no obsession with AFRICA its far too unstable and DANGEROUS.

What a joke
Happy prebirhday to my former President, Dr. Charles McArthur Ghankay Taylor.

WE NEEDED DOE OUT BUT THE WAR BY TAYLOR WAS UNNECESSARY,ONLY PRINCE JOHNSON HAD A PLAN, DEFEND HOMELAND NIMBA
Facts
Folks,we see no reason why former president charles G Taylor is still in prison (jail). The American government shall see reason to release our former president.We await to see sooner or later please oo. 🙏🙏
The guy was innocent they just wanted to found an scapegoat for what happen in Sierra Leon.
you are an idiot if you truly think that .But you are entitled to your own opinion, no matter how wrong you view may be.
***** this man is dangerous animal in human skin
exactly. I have no remorse for him at all. he had none for anyone who he killed.
jacekvo jace and the westerns have poisoned your brain
no, the fool had free will, no one made him do it, he did it himself. he killed thousands of people for his own greed and has no remorse for it whatsoever. save me the story about those in the west. Seems like you are one of those who would jump off a bridge cause someone told you to do it.
The bottom line is America owns Liberia. Look at the flag. Liberia is the 52nd State. Never forget that America runs the show in Liberia.
Lol Monrovia, The capital is named after US president James Monroe. AKA "The Monroe Doctrine"
Is there any scene of him saying "jesus christ was also acuse of Being a murder"?
I don’t care about all these people thy all corrupt I’m so so happy their is peace in Sierra Leone
so this decendant of American free slave actually went on trial for the role he played? intresting, he's a smooth talker and loves telling long stories lol
Your please Free our president oooo
It pains my heart that the western world has a singular purpose to treat African as fools.
It is so often the case that acts of war are allowed to play out before the worlds eyes.. Then after evil has been done, monsters like this are sometimes brought to justice. It looks so civilized.

@@louislamey1884 this GUY is a PSYCHO.
I like this lawyer, may God continue to give him wisdom.
Charles can run but he cannot hide.
He is denying a lot
One day I will be back.
Charles Taylor is one of the best guys
Tailor we love you and we still await your to return one day and serve as president to make a better LIBERIA 🇱🇷 🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷 for us 1day
The legal system exists to protect those who cannot defend themselves. If an entity or people regardless of colour shows no respect for justice fairness or morality then all should be alarmed.
Then why they can't do the same thing to putin?
chey Charles Ghankay Dakpanda Taylor u remember all these? You are hero
Don’t read or cite the bible. 😂
when you live by the gun you will now be judge by the judges. but every African should be very much aware of america and Brattain especially when you are in politician stands.
yes they must release him ugently that was a problem of America not him
where are the other warlords was charles taylor the only war lord no i guess. so what are they trying to prove.
So sad , so what happened to Putnam, this world just don't have justice
Please can you please pardon tailor we sierra Leonean we for give him for the sake of God, we her asking the international commentary to free him.
This was not a case but a makeup
President Charles Taylor judging from serralone court of war crame.
Intelligent demon.
Speak the facts Mr. President so that your words will live after you.
They need to release this man from jail asap.
These Prosecutors are not even well informed to deal with our former President.

I remember very well.
Let him pay the price

what proved his inoccency?
L'UNE DES CONSÉQUENCES D'UNE GUERRE. ATT
He have to be the coolest to wear glasses in court or he can’t see?
He's using the sunglasses as a security blanket. Mr. Taylor is trying to hide his facial expressions.
Like Nuremberg with film/TV lighting?
Child play are these judges and entire scenario.
Where is George Bush and Tony B?
This Dude brain is amazing 😮
You are one of the best, God will save you 🙏
He will rot in jail
Those questions are not fairly asked
It was generally considered and agreed that he gets into the prison, that's why he's in prison today. He was free of most of the charges levelled against him.
I done know? Because he was president, that way he was ask, lot of important stupid questions?
14 KIDS how many wi es.
me)
This is what greed and power will do to a person
Who provides arms to kill our people because Taylor didn't have money for that
Let us forgive him . God is all forgiving
