The genocide of Rwanda-Burundi ended there and moved next door into the Congo where there has been ongoing wars and rebellion over its riches since the 1960's - yes, the 1960s.

As per usual, it is about money and the power that lets the money flow into the hands of North American and European companies. The latest real driver of child soldiers, rape as war policy, thousands being killed weekly?

Uranium and chromium are still important but the rare earths and minerals that have been powering cell phone were the latest and greatest. So who has been paying for the deaths and rapes in the Congo? You and me, texting, web surfing and twittering on our phones keeps the wars going!
