You know how after a cop sees or goes through hell, and as soon as they're out of it the first thing they want to do is call their family to tell them he loves them? That's what I want to do with my country right now.

I have the first Vice Guide to Travel video, and while this clip seems to indicate higher quality, it still seems like some bored rich guys from the States going out thrill-seeking. There's some reportage going on for sure. They've gone to a pretty hellish place that most of the world has forgotten about. But a lot of this segment is the 'reporter' ineloquently commenting on how scared he is, or how fucked up this or that place is. Yea, it's fucked up, the images speak for themselves.

If I may philosophize...

A man who craves "Glory and Power" and is given it through violence, is dangerous in deed, upon discovering the power and control that religion possesses.

No one, not even himself, will know how sincere or corrupt his true feelings are. Even if he raises an empire and brings salvation out of the stench that his nation has had to endure, He will never be free of his personal demons, and he will be lost to himself, to the power of religion. He may even feel it as his duty to bring about change, create a new era for their children. But as he does, his thirst for the power of religion will ever feed him as did his thirst for death which led him to this point. And in the end, which power can be the more evil? The power of death or the power of religion?

It truly makes you appreciate your, comparatively, extremely cushy lives.


Why, I don't know what you're talking about. I'm sitting here in my leather chair, eating pizza, watching the Olympics in HD on my 32 inch flatscreen, while cruising the internet on my $1500 dollar PC.

My life is FAR from cushy.

This may not be "News" but it does stick a camera where most "News" programs seem to be afraid to look. I believe some of the more horrifying scenes were taken from other shows because I've seen some of them before. I found this video very interesting, great sift!

Desperate upvote. People need to know this horror isn't limited to Liberia as well. Many other countries in Africa have or are facing similar horrors: Sudan, Somalia, Yemen, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and on and on.

Bored rich guys going out thrill seeking generally make the best journalists. I don't really care how or why they got the footage, the fact is they got it and look to have reported it pretty much the way they saw it. When's the last time any major network covered something as important and ridiculously dangerous? Heck, honestly tell me you've heard from any other source that the UN intends to withdraw their force within a year and just hope the civil war doesn't start back up into another drug addicted cannibalistic child soldier hell on earth?
