Speaking of “Blood Diamonds”. did you happen to see a recent documentary of the civl war in Sierra Leone? Sierra Leone is a diamond producing country which has prompted much violence between armed groups trying to control the diamond trade. As a result many people of Sierra Leone have had their hands cut off for daring to vote in their elections.
