 ratcatcher2 says: The plight of the women of Walungu has been documented in remarkable video footage obtained by a Congo-born nurse and featured in a Guardian film. Walungu is just 40 miles from Bukavu, one of a handful of regional centres where the UN, international aid agencies and journalists have been based since fighting between Nkunda's militia and Congolese troops displaced 250,000 people in eastern Congo. Their purpose is to protect civilians and distribute aid, but the NGOs say it is often too dangerous to venture outside the towns. In Ninja, women and children go hungry. Humanitarian aid has not reached here, and there is no security. Devastating. Video Rape in a lawless land Leah Chishugi, a nurse and survivor of the genocide in Rwanda, travels into the heart of eastern Congo to record the testimony of more than 400 women and girls abused by marauding militias Leah Chishugi, a nurse now living in London, travelled to the region in September and October to take food and medicine to the villages. Chishugi grew up in Goma, just inside the Congolese border, so she knows the region well and is fluent in local languages, but after narrowly surviving the Rwandan genocide in 1994 she fled as a refugee to Britain. Appalled by what she discovered on her return, she beg... unbearable But this doesn't give Zionists the right to put more than 1.5 millions in a starving to death condition. killing 100 can't be compared with killing 100,000. Both are extremely bad, and Zionists are the worst. Yassin, Neither Jews nor Zionists nor Israelis "put more than 1.5 millions in a starving to death condition". Israel defends it's own borders, towns, and citizens, and is NOT obliged to feed its enemies that have sworn to destroy it. Food and fuel can come from Egypt's borders with Gaza. But why does it not? Egypt could allow Gaza residents, food, and fuel to traverse its borders but does not. Why won't the Gazans' Arab brethren in Egypt and elsewhere help them before Israel does? You know the answer. Check your facts and logic before you accuse Israel of starving people whom Israel is not obliged to feed or help. True, but ... The Zionist, for all their faults, have never used rape as part of their arsenal of ethnic cleansing. This may well be for racist reasons. They might not consider raping an Arab any more than most men would @uck an animal. As a male who has never been raped, I can have no comprehension of what it is like to be raped. None. Decades before it ever became 'PC', I easily respected a females right to say no. Sex and force just do not compute in my brain. How these 'males' can combine sex and killing together is an abhorrence to me. Even my nightmares could not contemplate this. How long a memory do you need to remember the effort required against the threat of sinking, when international ships broke the blockade to bring some relief supplies to Gaza? How selective is the Zionist memory? Do the Zionist tell of the exorbitant Shylock prices that it charges as it has the monopoly on goods supplied by the UN to Gaza? One simple reason why Egypt cannot supply. Too profitable for the Zionist while commiting slow genocide. Does the Zionist not remember the fuss when the Gazians knocked down part of the border wall and rushed into Egypt? Why would the Gazians need to build smuggling tunnels if they had free access to Egypt? Why could students not attend college in t... I've no idea as to the content of the deleted comments. I personally would NEVER delete another's comments. No matter how offensive, they are more damning of the author than any damage to the viewer. Why the originator of an article gets to be judge and jury is beyond my wit. This is particularly so on ClipMarks where the original article is usually from a reasonably reputable source with the originator only having choice over which 1,000 words to use of the real author. This is presently beyond my mental capacity presently for me to comment on. In regards to the content of this clip. I feel really disgusted about what this clip demonstrates and makes clear. It is sad that this can and does happen in this day and age. My heart goes out to those who have suffered and died and the ones that haven't died will never be right. SAD ratcatcher2- regarding the deleted comments- They were a barrage of totally unrelated spam. Nothing at all to do with the subject-just shameless spamming. (I've been following this and have been getting comments mailed to me, that's why I noticed it. Horrible subject-but great clip.  The subject title is awful and I think it was a low jab that was entirely disconnected to this horrifying article, and was rather disrespectful at that. This article really haunted me the day I read it, and still resides in a part of my find where incomprehensible evils reside. Thank you for sharing it. *mind For the record, I've had clips that have been horribly spammed, too, and the same net outcome. I should clarify my comment, The clip is a good clip and the subject matter is what I find disgusting. tommy2balmy says it right. Horrible subject-but great clip. I'm lost for words! Too horrible. As usual... the problems stem, in part, from US foreign policy: Problems with Current U.S. Policy Key Problems * Given its involvement in the Belgian Congo and Zaire, including its 30-year support for Mobutu, Washington is partly responsible for the conflict in the Congo and thus has an obligation to participate in its resolution. * American backing for Rwandan and Ugandan intervention in the Congo reflects uncritical acceptance of three stereotypical notions: the leaders of Uganda and Rwanda as “new leaders,” Rwanda’s Tutsi leadership as “serious,” and the Tutsi as deserving of support because they are genocide victims. * The U.S. has supplied weapons and training to eight of ... |
