Past Abuses "Liberian timber"
The October 6, 2008 issue of The New Yorker has an article called “The Stolen Forests: Inside the covert war on illegal logging.”
The article includes this paragraph on Liberia:Charles Taylor, the former President of Liberia, distributed logging concessions to warlords and a member of the Ukrainian mafia, and the Oriental Timber Company--known in Liberia as Only Taylor Chops--conducted arms deals on his behalf. The violence tied to Taylor's logging operations reached unprecedented levels, and in 2003 the UN Security Council imposed sanctions on all Liberian timber. (China, the largest importer of Liberian timber, tried to block the sanctions.) Shortly afterward, Taylor's regime collapsed. An American official told me that the US intelligence community "absolutely put the fall of Taylor on the timber sanctions."

i learned that charles taylor is about to be freed?if that happens then it will be a shame on the international community that has long been knowleageable of the attrocities of this man of unimagineable cruelty . if this man is freed, then its like the international community is like putting another burden on the heads of west african leaders to solve. what west africa needs is the continual inprsonment of this man of no use until the end of time. Taylor's last days should be spent in the dungeons that he made other to perish in during the days iof his criminla regime.
