   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  07-3263
   Board of Immigration Appeals   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Smith, Circuit Judge and
   Rosenbaum, District Judge]
   Petition for Review - Immigration. Because petitioner failed to meet
   his burden of demonstrating his credibility based on the inconsistencies
   and implausibility of his testimony and failed to provide corroborating
   evidence for his persecution claim, his claim for asylum fails; even if the
   court assumed petitioner was credible and had established prior
   persecution based on his tribal membership, substantial evidence
   supported the IJ's determination he had not adequately demonstrated a
   well-founded fear of persecution in light of the overthrow of the Liberian
   government and the absence of any evidence that the current government
   was persecuting members of the Krahn tribe.
