  • Wow you are such brave women !!! I am not Congolese but wow a brave movement !!!

  • I support your efforts, I wish I was there with you, but I did freeze my butt off just yesterday doing a rally I organized by the UN HQ with 2 missionaries from Congo and my friends. We videotaped the event and I will post to it my channel within a week. I heard about a brave group of women protesting for 5 days in the cold, the night before the rally, and was trying to find out who it was so I could contact them. And by God's Grace - here you are! Thank you for your efforts sisters!! Keep on!!

  • We cannot allow the Great Bush Recession to distract us from doing all the work we would have been doing if Bush had never disrupted the entire global economy.

    In 1945 we said 'Never Again'. Valuable natural resources should enrich poor countries. They should not be allowed to turn into illegal trafficking that finances those political forces who rely on violence to seize power.
