<br/><br/> "The kids of the Mideast get more attention, either as disciples of terror or as victims of occupation. But nobody has been more exploited than the kids of Sierra Leone. They may not come from a strategically important country, or a place that, for now anyway, represents a danger to the world's rich nations. But the growing use of children has changed the dynamics of warfare, and must be treated as a new security threat." (NEWSWEEK) This article focuses on the use of child soldiers in third world nations, and relates horrific stories, told by the child soldiers themselves, of what it was like to be forced into service.
