CHARLES Taylor is a world-class SOB.
A warlord elected president of Liberia in 1997, his reign of terror led to a deadly civil war that seemed to go on forever. Women were systemically raped; and men, women and kids had their limbs hacked off by pro- and anti-Taylor soldiers, many of them children.
Gini Reticker’s embracing documentary “Pray the Devil Back to Hell” shows how Taylor got his comeuppance from a coalition of tenacious Christian and Muslim women armed only with matching T-shirts.
Their peaceful protests forced Taylor into exile and led to the election of Africa’s first female head of state. Taylor was eventually arrested for war crimes; his trial continues.
