  • Deadlyphantom, its hard to find someone with half an intellectual system on Youtube. Everyone else is ignorant, immature and quite frankly mistold.

    Im proud to find someone else who can see through the fascade of democracy.

  • Another war caused by the America and the west. Congo is full of resources, it would be a unaceptable to the west if the resources was used to lift the people out of poverty and not go mostly in the pockets of rich white men.

  • lens

  • police the UN should do it to ensure truthfulness. hopefully the UN can be trusted.

    also adverise the cause of the war so consumers make the connection between what they buy and where it comes from.

  • create tracability of all the gold diamonds cobalt coltan tin etc form the congo. label goods that are and are not made of the resources of rhe congo and give consumers a choice. this should be a big enough deterent for business not to use congolese materials.

    dont leave it for the industry to set up and

  • they are the victims of the people who will send charity after their corporate providers have ripped them off.

  • seeing africa only through the lense of charity isnt going to stop the problems of africa. seeing it as a victim of western consumers will.

  • military and that is necessary as the iron fist that make the world safe for US business. business needs consumers so you are creating the need for the US military, thisisnt my pc i dont own one and i dont own a mobile phone. its easy to point the finger at bad goverments and corporations with seeing the part cruciall part played by ordinary consumers in the global racket called capitalism

  • then the mining companies are going to do whatever they can to grab that land, aided and abetted by their governments.

    the resources are also essential for the US

  • although its good to give its better not to cause the war int he first place as its a war for resources. if western consumers buy the goods that contain the resources of the congo .
