The Fighting in Sierra Leone I would not refer to as a war. The rebels ran through town shooting random people and killing everyone. They are more like terrorists who use human shields and rape women and children. When Executive Outcomes( A Company Who Employs Mercenaries) went in there and drove the rebels out, the U.N. should not have been involved. As soon as executive outcomes left the fighting resumed. These Rebels should not get Political compromises. They need to be killed. The Sierra Leone Government should have taken control when it had the chance.
