Carving Up the Congo
November 182009
http://www.greenpeace.org.uk/congo : International logging companies are causing social chaos and wreaking environmental havoc in the Democratic Republic of Congo, home of the world’s second largest rainforest.
Our film reveals how the World Bank, by far the largest donor to the DRC, is failing to stop this destruction whilst the rainforest is being sold off under the illusion that it will alleviate poverty in one of the poorest countries on Earth.

I love the Congo …
I love the Congo and all the unique wildlife in it. I just wish I could visit it, but I doubt it will ever happen. I hope greedy ignorant people in power will recognize what I recognize and treat it with more respect?

Western news …
Western news reports will only report on the sensationalist things that Africans are reported to do to other Africans, but they will never follow the money trail to their own capitals. Or even follow the trail up to the ownership of these concessions in the DRC itself.
Elwyn Blattner was likely even involved with the assassination of Patrice Lumumba.

Odd of course that even this documentary does not touch on the main logger in the DRC. Google:
Elwyn Blattner
The Blattners have been involved in the corrupt exploitation of the Congo when it was still called Zaire.

May Jesus Christ …
May Jesus Christ have mercy on Africa, I’m weeping in my heart because of this video. This is none other than colonialism rearing its insidious head all over again. How long will we Africans have to deal with the greed and reckless disregard of the West for our blessed land and people. May God severely and thoroughly punish the West. It’s already started with this ‘global’ financial meltdown. God taught the West a lesson in WWI, WWII, and the Cold War, but the next one coming will finish…

If you look at the arms closely you’ll see that it was made in Russia or China and not the west. Second China is becoming the biggest consumer of Africa’s natural resources and even supplying the arms for the blacks to kill each other and nobody seems to notice……..

History repeats …
History repeats itself. Greed, selfishness and a complete disregard for the well being of man and planet allows these people to get away with stealing the land from the people who have learned to live as one with the planet and has not until contaminated had a desire for anything more than that that sustains life. They will now be cheated out of their land, their history and their future. They will now also suffer the same fate as other indigenous people that were victims before them.

. . . after having to face independence, the cold war, then the spill of violence from Rwanda – alone- further deprived the Congo population of their existence. FORGET ABOUT SKIN COLOR COMPLEXES. What’s necessary is for them to make be prepared and make sure [THIS TIME] THAT alien forces will not interrupt or determine their cultural and economic future anywhere.

This is a prime example of corruption and expolitation stemming from the Portugese colonialism who enslaved the Congo; after Patrice Lumumba came to power – he was killed by European colonialists – then the cold war came and further disenfranchise and devastated the congolese populations . .
