This feel saddens me but I am happy it was made.

[albc1964]

Hmm !! Like I said in a similar video about the Congo conflict; where is the United Nations ??? Wasn,t one of its main jobs was to keep the peace and restore justice to the suffering people ??? Well apparently that job is not bieng done; UN >> another place where quite a bit of my US tax dollars goes to waste.

[Clemequerry]

Mungu abalinde

[Gallopingsquirrels]

It is sad how little the media covers this horrible crisis.

Shame on NBC, ABC, etc. for not at all covering anything. Instead, all the media focuses on is Susan Boyle and all the economic crisis.

God bless the peacekeepers in the DRC. God bless the people of the DRC.

[nyashie]

those r fkn hutus whom runed away after killing ma family. they should jus let them starve to dead even tho they deserve much worser then that!!

[dawnninjawolf]

That reporter is an idiot, the world has done MORE than enough to help Africa.

Millions of dollars have been spent and THOUSANDS of lives have been lost and thats not good enough?

It is the duty of the African government and people to fix their own country, How can you control that which you do not rule?

[Thekingisamongstus]

Coltan, huge in cellphone tech and much of the new gaming tech, sold in the West, is one of the primary metals being mined out of the Congo by the fighting groups and foreign countries. Also many other minerals in which Congo is hugely rich. The MONEY of the West funds the fighting. The rebels I've heard get something like $40 a month compared to the army's something in the teens. Countless money has been made on the Congo conflict with the rebel groups funded by the Western money.

[AsashiSakai]

you are right! :(

unfortunatly, nothing is happening :(

we help a LOT! but... they just can´t control their countries and its their duty, to help, and make things easier, because its not our action that counts... it must be the very same countries doing the work alongside the world, they must do something too, even though its hard :( if it was for me, i would lend some troops to amintain thigs softer, i mean the whole world should do that. Not for violence but for Peace even if we have to fight

[dawnninjawolf]

I would kill all those bastard tyrants like Mugabe and wash that continent CLEAN with the blood of drug dealers, rapists and all those who would profit from the chaos of a sovereign people.

Then I would encourage an industrial revolution and the means of massive water purification, this however takes time, money and lot of blood thirsty soldiers.

[AsashiSakai]

If you killed Mugabe, there would be a political crisis, and it was going to be complicated. :(

with Mugabe here, they have SOME and shelter to say the least.

So, the best we can do is to change Mugabe´s mind, as well as every other political leader helping Mugabe.

I am not only talking about Zimbabué and other African countries; i am talking about the world; because the same (or worst) happens in North Korea, don´t forget about those too :(

[dawnninjawolf]

I disagree, Mugabe is a parasite and Zimbabwe has become one of the poorest nations in Africa because of him, not to mention he got his power from racist hate propaganda and fascist scare tactics (much like Hitler only without the leadership qualities) and believe me when I say nothing but good would come from his demise.

[lodzadee]

Africa my land,the land of my forefathers,

May God bless you and curse those who cause harm to your Children.May the Lord watch over your shoulders for ever and ever.Amen

[hgfkhjoimpfo]

If you think like that there will be no solution.

Dont think that africa is your land - the world is the land of all humans. Dont make difference!

[Thekingisamongstus]

That sounds like the credo of conquering landless people. Africa is the land of it's children period. Invaders and those who force their way in through money and of violence have no rights there.

ladyanne47 good guy man. respect

[ladyanne47]

I have a sponsored child in Goma, He must be one of the displaced people. He is only 9 years old, I pray that he may be found if things ever calm down.

His name is Bienfait which means "well made".

His father is a pastor there. Grace Shalom.

May God protect him.

[AsashiSakai]

thats a french name :)

May God protect him, and all the other, who need that help :) I am with you :D

[dreamgiuli]

is so sad my brthers...to see all this drama and terror going on in africa while our rich rulers r getting richer and don't care of the dying children and mothers crying for their lost sons...wake up africa...arrise and build your future

[Goannes]

It's the war between Chinese and the US corporations that's been fought out here. Do some digging and you'll find perverted reasons for this war.

[PrinceDimeXI]

i advise people to read that shit..

leave africa alone. ITS TIME FOR INDEPENDCE

[moviedude111]

"looting is common in this part of central Africa"

What Africans looting....wow, that is not very common.

[kwal57]

the last song that they sang was pretty. i wish that afrika could become unified and love each other. their continent is so beautiful too. it's such a sad thing.

[gecoco]

This isn't about White people governing Africa. It is about Africans being inhuman. The Congo is destroyed and can't be repaired by itself. Congolese need to seek help from the outside, but the outsiders won't want to do this for free. If they say so,they are pretending. The world is not doing anything, because the U.S is behind this supporting Rwanda. We know that the guns went to South Africa a and then, Rwanda. Why is it that Zimbabwe and South Africa don't get along? The west needs to think.

[amisi1122]

I'm sick and tired of whites people having something to do with every bad situations in Africa. why can't them leave Africans govern themselves. we don't need them. they don't care about Africans.the only thing them want from Africa is its natural resources.

[moviedude111]

Everything is whiteys fault. You need to refresh your political correctness dogma.

[moviedude111]

Also remember to never use logic. Blind faith that it is always whiteys fault in all matters.

[moviedude111]

probably caused from rising sea levels, which is from global warming, which is whiteys fault.

[moviedude111]

for selfish whitey who want to make furniture.

[dreamgiuli]

stop pointing fingers on white...is not only their fault...some narrow minded rulers throw the dices for their own interests and is the innocent that always suffers...look at all your children dying everyday africa,and arise..

Congo has an amazing amount of natural wealth. why can't they pay their troops? Massive corruption by the government and massive exploitation by western corporations who do not let this wealth return to the Congolese.

[EUXTV]

No other conflict since World War II has seen as many dead as the fighting and the humanitarian crisis in the Democratic Republic of Congo, according to a report released on Tuesday by an international aid group.

The Congo conflict has taken the lives of an estimated 5.4 million people since 1998 and continues to leave as many as 45,000 dead every month, according to a mortality survey of the International Rescue Committee, known as the IRC.
