The Congo doesn't have oil, BTW...
The article at this link is disgusting-consider yourself warned. It is about sexual violence in Africa. A serious issue ignored by the so called "civilized" nations and the UN. More Vicious Than RapeThe atrocity reports from eastern Congo were so hellish that Western medical experts refused to believe them—at first. |

No not because of vengence although it would be understandable in these cases |

victims with clubs and cattle prods as guards? |
lwfern | Nov-18-06 06:34 PM | #43 |

All prison guards have that equipment |
krispos42 | Nov-19-06 04:22 PM | #72 |

Maybe the victims have other plans for their lives |

The scary thing is that this is so underreported and misrepresented when it is reported. |
AZBlue | Nov-18-06 07:12 PM | #44 |

perpetrators probably will be shot on sight, eventually -- by other rapists & murderers |

That would be a fantastic solution. And anyone who would balk at the cost could compare |

It gets to the heart of the problem, I think |

Congo does have oil. It's 2/3 of GDP. Reserves of 1.5 billion barrels. |

OK, I see. |
oblivious | Nov-18-06 07:55 PM | #53 |

Shame they don't have oil. Bush could have "liberated" them, too. |
