THE USA MUST NOT MEDDLE WITH DR CONGO. WE CONGOLESE ARE CAPABLE OR SORTING OUR INTERNAL AFFAIRS. THE USA IS SPONSORING RAPE, MURDER AND VIOLENCE IN EASTERN DR CONGO. IT IS NOT YOUR PLACE TO TELL US HOW BIG OUR LAND IS.
THIS IS THE LAND OF OUR ANCESTORS. DR CONGO IS NOT SUDAN, NOR IS IT YOUGOSLAVIA. WE ARE 430 TRIBES UNITED IN ONE LAND. LET TUTSIS AND HUTUS SORT OUT THEIR DIFFERENCES IN KIGALI RWANDA. WE MADE AMERICA WIN THE SECONG WORLD WAR WITH THE URANIUM USED IN NAGASAKI AND HIROSHIMA.
BILL GATE HAS A BI OF CHANGE IN HIS HAND BECAUSE OF OUR COLTAN. LET THE PEOPLE OF DR CONGO ENJOY THEIR WEALTH IN PEACE. STOP KILLING OUR LEADERS, LUMUMBA, KABILA LAURENT.
LET US REMOVE THE ONE YOU ARE KEEPING AS OUR HEAD OSTATE NOW. THE ILLITERATE JOSEPH KABILA. STOP MEDDLING. THE USA IS THE ENEMY OF DR CONGO.

The DRC is a sleeping giant, the DRC has potential to re-write Africa's development if the African Union had genuine intention to foster Africa's development. Today,the DRC with its vast natural resources imports chicken from Australia - this makes me cry. The wealthies and yet the poorest.
