[quote]Ex-warlord confesses to 20,000 deaths
MONROVIA, Liberia (AP) – One of Liberia’s most notorious rebel commanders, known as Gen. Butt Naked, has returned to the nation his troops terrorized to confess, saying he is responsible for 20,000 deaths.
Joshua Milton Blahyi, who now lives in Ghana, returned this week to face his homeland’s truth and reconciliation commission, this time wearing a suit and tie. His nom de guerre is derived from his platoon’s practice of charging naked into battle, a technique meant to terrify the enemy.[/quote]
All right, the man sounds like a nasty piece of work, but you’ve got to love the name. And his modus operandi is pretty cool, too.
