Liberia is "basically destroyed"

[The One and Only...]

Alternative sources of energy are fine and dandy, but I doubt we will truly catch on for a long time. As for the brutal regime thing, I think they'll do much like what they have done: tear down the current govt. and put up a new, democratic one. I give the new govt. a year, but hey: can't say we didn't try.

I don't see why you guys are complaining in the first place. We are helping a country out that seems to be in dire need of it. If they have oil, it means that we could cut a deal with them and help get their economy up. It's humanitarian efforts with economic bells and whistles: sounds like a win-win to me.
