	Sierra Leone: Anti Corruption Commission: Addressing Corruption in post conflict Sierra Leone (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Weeping and pleading with corrupt officials at the Sierra Leone Ports Authority are unlikely to incur change when the President is contrasting his words of condemnation with actions of condonement.
		This may not, however, be the case in Sierra Leone where approximately 70% of the government’s budget comes from donor agencies, and the problem is not the government’s ability, it is its will.
		Observers might note that the Government of Sierra Leone has failed miserably to uphold its commitment (the current percentages is 0%), but what should also be noted is that it has taken action which would have otherwise been unlikely.

		The secretary-general noted that the situation in Sierra Leone had remained "relatively stable" since the signing last November of the Abuja Ceasefire Agreement, but he said the RUF's reluctance to disarm and to let government authority to be extended to areas under their control left "serious doubts" about the rebel group's intentions.

	SIERRA LEONE VICE-PRESIDENTS AS LEADERS OF PARTIES?: Sierra Leone News (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		However, although it is in respect of the present Vice-President and the ruling Sierra Leone Peoples Party (SLPP) that the question has specifically arisen today, its wider ramifications, implications and significance within the general political system extend beyond individual persons, functionaries or political parties, and even beyond the present times into the future.
		He was seeking an injunction against the prospective election of an incumbent Vice-President of Sierra Leone as Leader of the SLPP whilst he still remained serving as Vice-President.
		And so, with respect to the age factor for both the Presidency or Vice-Presidency and membership of the Electoral Commission, and also for election of the Speaker of Parliament, the conclusion in the first sentence of paragraph 7 of the VP’s argument is seen to be over-simplified, patently inaccurate and indeed wrong.

		The report notes that representatives of the government, judiciary, police and prison authorities, and the NGO community, expressed a clear preference for a national court with a strong international component in all its organs (judges, prosecutors, defence counsel and support staff), and for international assistance in funding, equipment and legal expertise.

		In response to those who believe we should blindly support this disastrous President, his Administration, and the complacent, complicit Congress, listen to the words of Theodore Roosevelt, a great President and a Republican, who said: The President is merely the most important among a large number of public servants.
		He should be supported or opposed exactly to the degree which is warranted by his good conduct or bad conduct, his efficiency or inefficiency in rendering loyal, able, and disinterested service to the Nation as a whole.
		To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.

		Polling data also gives some insight into Iraq, with 49% of the Iraqi population agreeing that 'Iraq today is generally headed in the right direction', opposed to 36% who believed it was the wrong direction (November 30-December 7, 2005).
		In October and November last year, when asked whether the US was right to invade Iraq, 80% of Kurds polled responded yes, 58% of Shiites and 16% of Sunnis agreed, and the Baghdad area hovered around the national average of 46% (Time-ABC News Poll).
		In particular, up-to-date information on annual rate of growth listed in percentages (with Afghanistan leading the way at an astonishing 4.8%) and births per 1,000 people (Niger is #1 at 51 births), may start more than one debate about the world's overpopulation.

		Brigadier General Julius Maada Bio (born 1964) led a coup in Sierra Leone on January 17, 1996 ousting president Valentine Strasser.

		Bio now serves as the president of International Systems Science Corporation, a consulting and investment management firm.
