Charles Taylor's Involvement: The Bitterness of War

By Dandeson Smith

Charles Taylor's Involvement: the Bitterness of War catalogues several specific acts of atrocities committed on the people of Sierra Leone during the ten-year war in the country from 1991 to 2001. These narrations are meant to provide a lesson to countries around the world about the dangers of sliding into mayhem. The insinuations given indicate the foolhardiness of engaging in high-handed and ruthless acts without fear of repercussion. The role of Charles Taylor in the war is highlighted mainly to point out the perception that he was largely made a scapegoat for the fact that he was incarcerated while upfront perpetrators were not punished. The untold ripple effects of such a disastrous war on a country is unlimited and very negative and can last for decades ahead. The obvious conclusion is that the idea of good governance should be upheld by governments if factions of society are to feel assimilated. Political space shouldn't be in short supply for the rank and file in any country.
