  • "chocolate war" - directed by Somalioz

  • I see a new movie being about this: "Blood Chocolate." Staring Leonardo DiCaprio and Wesley Snipes.

  • TIA

  • first diamonds now cocoa,whats next! if africans carry on like this, then we will end up banning everything, forget about it.

  • this definetly makes not want to buy chocolate or any thing with it

  • For the reasons these types of conflicts have happened all over the world since the beginning of competing societies: money and power.

    People will sell out there own relatives for it.

  • but what to do? boycott chocolate, but then you risk destroying delicate economies and hurting poor farmers all over south america, the caribbean, and africa. maybe the solution is buying only single source chocolate, but even with that, how can you be absolutely sure of where it is from?

  • money and wealth is the reason why.

  • Because the people don't control it. Nestle, Hershey do

  • why is that any thing thats even remotly considered a resource thats being traded from africa always has violence and war behind it?
