Welcome to the Congo

Rwanda and Uganda invaded the Congo twice, first in 1996 and again in 1998. These invasions unleashed the mass deaths and suffering that we see in the Congo today. It is estimated that nearly six million people have died as a result of the invasions of Congo. In addition, hundreds of thousands of women have been systematically raped as a tool of war to displace entire communities and demoralize the population.

Here is a slideshow from Omekongo's song "Welcome to the Congo". Visit his website and myspace for more.

Anyway the lyrics could be posted ?

[nico2710]

TheCentralQueen...you dont know SHIT about the Norwegian Economy so please dont make a fool outta your self.The Norwegian economy is actually one of the MOST stable economies in the fucked up world.We obtained oil from CONGO? Man you stupid. Ever heard of the North sea? And Norwegians are one of the most tolerable people in the world when it comes to the race issue. Actually as far as racism in Norway goes, the majority of racism and hate crime is committed by...NON-Caucasians.

[Chompy0091]

kinshasa and brazzaville, i must go there

[loveturnshate]

guys can't we just get along?? ^^ But seriously, I am planning to visit many countries this year and next year, and Congo is one of my favorites to visit... just to see it for myself... and if I do this, I hope I will get out in one piece!

[TheCentralQueen]

You shoould ask yourself the reason why people like you are still alive? and when you are able to answer that question then you will be able to answer the question to why the Congo,Sudan,Iraq and even norway are still struggling to find economic stability. Norway only experience economic growth sometime in 1970 why? because of the oil they were able to obtain from countries like Congo and Libya,Iraq and etc. Despite that, there are still many who are in poverty

[Oyanor]

You think my friends are all high and blonde? I got black people, chinese, jews, muslims, russian and bunch of others.

My friends from Africa also think Congo and Africa is shit. Thats why they escaped, just like you did too.

[Oyanor]

Oh seems I found a sensitive spot. Youre so angry and full of hate it makes you blind and now youre the psycho babbling about my friends and family. We dont need flimflams diamonds and coltan, your new nation USA has taken it long ago anyway. You better come up with something better,than the lame youre mother is fat jokes you sweet little gangster.

Hahaha, like USA and Congo is the nations struggling to stop war and bring peace.

You better read smething about USA, Congo and Norway first.

[TheCentralQueen]

And no one cares if your pyscho self does not want to travel in the Congo. No one cares except maybe your racist friends in norway and tell your grandpa to stop stealing diamonds and coltan from the Congo. He has already killed thousands of people and has stolen 500 billion dollar and we want it back.

Long live the Congo and all the nations struggling to stop war and bring peace to the world.

[TheCentralQueen]

Oyenor ignorant people like you are the reason to why the world is filled with so many wars, racism and ignorance.

whether it is two norweagians or millions of women and children dying in the Congo killing is wrong period and that is the message many of us are trying to get across but its sad that ignorant, disturb and pyscho people like yourself will never understand that.
