Liberia was founded in 1822 by freed slaves from the United States. Since 1980 the democracy of Liberia has dealt with civil war. Following a coup of states in 1980, Liberia’s constitution was suspended, and in 1986 a new constitution was enacted. Under this constitution, a president and vice-president are jointly elected to a term of six years by an adult vote (MSN Learning and Research, 5). Currently, Liberia does not pose a threat to the United States or neighboring countries. Civil war in Liberia today is taking place because the rebel groups Liberians United for Reconciliation and Democracy (LURD) and the Movement for Democracy In Liberia (MODEL) want current president and former warlord Taylor removed from office. Taylor launched Liberia

Still, North Korea’s actions are in violation of the agreement signed, and the country should be dealt with swiftly. Unfortunately, all of the frequently discussed options for dealing with the crisis in North Korea have major drawbacks. One option would be to bribe North Korea to give up its nuclear ambitions, as we did with the agreement in 1994. On the other hand, it didn’t work then, so it probably won’t work now. A new round of cheating on their part would be likely. A second option would be

The United States should help Liberian civilians by sending military troops into the country to oversee Taylor’s departure. Liberians have become tired from fourteen years of civil war. Many civilians do not think that peace is possible until U.S. troops land in the country (Zavis 3). Unfortunately, President Bush has placed the United States in an uncomfortable situation. Warlord-turned-president Taylor has pledged to resign his post, but he will not resign until troops arrive to ensure an orderly transition (Zavis 2). But, the mounting death toll in Monrovia has cast doubt on Taylor’s pledge (Tosteven 1). President Bush has offered to send troops into Liberia to support west African peacekeepers, but only after President Taylor has stepped down and left the country (Tosteven 1). It is my view that the U.S. should send troops over now to end the bloodshed of the Liberian civilians. Then, if President Taylor does not leave the country, American troops can make him leave by use of force. I feel that it is the duty of every strong, upright country to take care of innocent people, no matter what country they are from. “Good” should always make an attempt to triumph over “Evil”.
