"Can international trials bring justice to Sierra Leone? That question was asked soon after the United Nations sent its largest-ever peacekeeping force into this New Brunswick-sized country on the West African coast." (TORONTO STAR) The author relates how most Sierra Leoneans "are grateful that some commanders are being tried. But they ask why such a tiny number of perpetrators are being brought to justice" in war-crimes trials for atrocities committed during the country's brutal civil war.
