Mike, thanks.

Better I say little as such acts of cowardice by soldiers make my blood boil.

I learned recently that when Liberian President Doe was captured (later to be tortured to death on video) he was in the office of the UN commander who had ordered his troops not to oppose the rebels as the attacked the compound.

The Ghanaian UN commander a general had required Doe and his 70 men to disarm before entering the UN compound. When the rebels showed up his bottle went and stepped aside and allowed Doe to be captured and his 70 men executed.

Another glorious example of the performance (or lack thereof) of UN forces.

General Quainoo was obviously one of Ghana's finest.
