since the belgians grabbed the congolese women to get the men from the villages to take the diamonds back to belgium, did some of the belgian men rape the congolese women in the process?

I don't know, but I imagine it had to have happened at least a few times.

I cried when I heard about what King Leopold did to the Congolese black people. Unbelievable

[h8uall66]

That's understandable. The things he did in the name of profit were so horrible.

can you help me? How is this percieved amongst the people of Belgium today? what is thier own sense of this isue? and how does it "play" on the minds of the people?

Thank you.

You know, I'm really not sure. It's a good question though. I am going to have to look into it.

I am terribly sorry, but I think the exaggeration of the acts of Leopold II in the Congo (Leopold II has never been there himself by the way) is in large part due to British propaganda in order to draw away the attention from all the mass murders they committed themselves in their colonies in India, Australia, the native Americans, S.Africa. Do you think these people were voluntarily part of the British Empire without any suppression or violence? Where does the number of 10,000,000 come from?

Humans are bad with or without religion. There will always be the good and the bad, religion doesn't make a difference.

What a vile creature, one of the most bloody monarchs in history, Belgian Africa was a place of brutality and death.

The Zoinist who rule the world & control media r very smart. They wrote the bible, a manual 2 control people. They are causing war & chaos in muslim & african countries round the world. Human rights only applies to the people of their countries no one else. They know Islam is Gods religion & it will solve the problems of the world & this does not fit in wiv their new world order plans. This is why they do anything to tanish islams reputaion. things like blowin up world trade centre them selfs

Congo is one of the richest countries in the world. It is completly self sufficient. It has diamonds, coltan, cooper, ivory, oil, iron, and many more It has 80% of the worlds resources. This is why People dont want us to live in peace. The West has made a pact with Joseph Kabila to keep killing to finish our population they are planning to split congo into different countries and sell other parts and split other parts with kabila. their secrets out. Its our country and we are not having it.

[jkitambo2012]

under "Joseph Kabila's" rule over 7 million congolese have died numbers go up every day. he lost the election 27th November 2011. But the west are helping him remain in power. This time conglese people hav chosen their president Etienne Tshisekedi. But the west do not want him cause they will loose access to congo. This is why congolese r protesting all over the world. u wnt see it on western news cause they dont want the pubic to know wat they get up 2 in congo. we've had enough of slavery.

[jkitambo2012]

since USA & other western Government killed Patric Lumumba up until today they hav chosen all our presidents. puppets who co-operate wiv them, if the popet stops co-operating they get rid & put another one. The poppet in power know "Joseph Kabila" is not congolese. He was a taxi driver in Rwanda .The west provided him with arms and helped him & his people to invade Congo as long as he keeps killing congolese & let the west have unlimited access to congo resources they help him remain in power.

[jkitambo2012]

It wasnt just king Leopard 2 by him self. it was with the permission of Other western govermens. they all signed a packed allowing him to do this and they all profited from it. And even when they protended to give congo its independance back when we had our first congolese prime minister Patric Lumumba, The west felt fretend wiv his vision for congo and africa. So in 1960 the USA and other western government chopped him up with a hack saw ans dissolved his body in acid.

Someone said Belgium is paying still . . . Isn't OJ Simpson paying still too? That's what thieves and murderers do, they pay back to their victims, sometimes for their lives? One hand is worth one million US . . . Work out the cost, then . . . and PAY you wicked people
