[181kivu]

the important thing is to make the world aware of what going on in congo . the press doesn't want talk about it .But now the congolese people are awake .people of congo die from hunger ,we don't want all those wealth no need to kill or to bring instability to congo for those coltan ,we need peace .every one profit of congo but no the congolese ,having electronic gadget in congo it is a luxary many congolese can't afford but the coltan inside come from there.it is injust.

7,619 viewers only,OMG, what's wrong with this world??

[dcwizard84]

Ben Affleck..God bless you. He didn't make a song or video but instead went down there and got his hands dirty..If any one is asking why help these people? then they must be sick.

[meredumais]

@dcwizard84 Totally agreed. It's easy for people to slam people like Penn and Affleck, accusing them of being perceived as heroes...the truth is, they ARE. Only those who have seen and done these things themselves have any right to criticize. I've worked as a French/English interpreter with DRC war survivors-the lucky ones who managed to escape-and all I can say is that a) he's not exaggerating a thing, and b) I wish DHS interviewers over here had his compassion.

[orgexy]

I don't know why people try to get the government to help these people when they did not want the government to handle Iraq/Iran. Can people be even more contradicting?

[shatterknee]

@orgexy : maybe people want us to help these countries without bombing them or exploiting their resources. It's a nuance.

[farrell4976]

After 20 months in the DRC doing hum. programs we found wonderful strong people. Salute Mr. Afflects for raising awareness. Many NGOs their building people. These organizations depend on donations. If you really want to help, not just bad mouth God etc, find an organization making a difference and offer your support. We found several: Humana People to People, Catholic Chariities, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons), TIFIE, Doctors without Borders etc. DO SOMETHING!!!

If you can read this or type in your comments, that means you're sitting behind the luxury of a computer. Instead of arguing with other viewers i guess the best we can do is make as many people aware of these atrocities . I mean look how many views in 2 years compared to a rap video with degrading lyrics and images. Millions watch us degrade ourselves in sleazy videos clips and ignore the real world. Peace!

[killercolabottle]

Brilliantly put popalongkid!

[icemanizaki]

There's hope................

[bheckel]

Nkunda is a warlord. How can anybody be good that causes Congolese to flee out of their country? I work in refugee camps in Uganda and I have heard the other side of the story. Let's get rid of all this corruption, war crimes, greed in the DRC.

[90sraisedme]

my man Kindu know what he talking about....the same white elite are responsible for all wars in Africa and even sponsering the rape of Congolese children by United Nazis....i mean Nations

[Mirundhi]

thank Ben Affleck this is great job ,most people think that tustsi people are only victim but is wrong. my hope is to see oneday alls criminal in case.

[smartspout]

Ben, you are so brave meeting with the FDLR and the tusi general Khunda. You are making a difference by bringing awareness to most terrible on going tragedy. As i sit here and look through your videos and other reports on the congo, I wish like you must... for more people to view the stories. 2.7 watch the kimel skit.. and 4k views on the congo. leaves ya speechless. AMAZING COURAGE BEN!!! THANK YOU if i ever meet u in nyc i will shake your hand with admiration and respect

[kodyka]

Managed to watch it now......

[kodyka]

Several times that I have tried it, the video just doesn't play. How have you all manage to watch it?

[kindu2006]

This is the deal, my friends. The people who control the planet are planning on killing 5.5 Billion human beings ASAP. This genocide is taking place first and foremost in Afrika.

Congo has the MOST mineral resources of any country on the planet, and they need the minerals for technological advancement.

Please look at the videos of Dr. Len Horrowitz to gain a better understanding of what I mean.

Everything in your eyes is being manipulated by the white elite. We NEED to wake up!

[segogol]

No need to say "white" elite, everything is being manipulated by AN elite where there are white and black people(there are muslims, jewish, christians) money has no color and no religion my friend.don't split the world into two categories the white (bad people) and the others (the victims) because that's what they want.I am white I live in France and I can tell you that there is a lot of misery for the "white" too.

[segogol]

The best that we can do is to gather and face up this small minority which manipulates the world to have money and power.peace ami :)

[kindu2006]

No!!! We have to identify the race that's committing the crime, and its the WHITE elite, - if you dont like it, ignore my comments. notice I said "ELITE", meaning I know that its not the whole white race, but a very small group. I know what I am talking about. peace and love.

[bizimanak]

you're wrong, it's not just white elite, it's all the elites, white, black, asian, chinese and so forth, is kabila white? was mobutu white?, is mugabe white? are the chinese who have just signed a 10 billions us dollars contract with your government whites? think again before writing, your ideas are good but singeling one particular elite shows you are ignorant

[kindu2006]

no, YOU'RE Wrong. Clearly you dont have the correct definition of the word Elite. Is Kabila, Mobutu, Mugabe an elite? NO!!! These leaders were puppets of the white elite. How can you not understand this? I find your comments very worrying. May be you should study the history of international politics, and its role with corporate power before you start disputing FACTS. Mobutu was put in power by the ELITE of Europe & America. FULL STOP!!! same with Kabila... KNOW THYSELF!!1

[Calla152]

thank you for showing the hope that's embedded in the pain.
