Published on Nov 21, 2012 After weeks of intense fighting in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, M23 rebels say they have taken control of parts of Goma, one of the main cities in the mineral-rich region. The Congolese government, on Monday, rejected an ultimatum to open talks with M23. This came after the rebels gave the government 24 hours to withdraw troops and open direct negotiations before they said they would advance on Goma. So, why does the DR Congo government refuse to hold talks with the rebel soldiers? And is military action really the answer to this conflict? Why Angelina Jolie Needs To Go To Prison! Published on Mar 12, 2012 She is a propagandist in the employ of the UN pushing proxy wars. She and the UN have blood all over their hands. seriously, why do people believe a perverse woman who carries a vile of blood around her neck, who behaves in as a depraved a way as angelina jolie did before she revamped herself as a 'humanitarian' would suddenly become so humane and philanthropic? it is more likely she figured out she can make a good career move by faking a new image. at the end of the day she is still the same creep who bragged about her knife collection and her love of raw meat. video6702 2 weeks ago organizations that go to poor countries to help? they do so to open doors for capitalists, my girlfriend has been working in these organizations, she got big pay huge amount of money and she told me that there is only one way to take control of third countries through a fine manner and control over them and their resuers, you think you know the whole story, think again Arrest Angelina Jolie For War Crimes- Kony 2012 Published on Mar 11, 2012 Please go to my channel and watch the follow up to this video titled "Why Angelina Jolie needs to go to prison!" Please comment, rate and subscribe. Angelia Jolie openly works for the UN and CFR pushing globalist wars under the cover of humanitarian intervention. Drunk on the blood of Iraq, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan and scores of other nations Jolie is now pushing military invasion to "help" Africa. She and her masters know full well that they are carrying out destabilization operations in the 3rd world so population can be reduced and resources stolen. We need to call a spade a spade, this is part of a new branding rollout to launch a AFRICOM take over of Africa. This constitutes a crime against humanity and Jolie is a party to it and needs to be arrested along with other globalist that are using left cover to widen globalist empire. The problem is you can't go to the UN because it is at the center of the corporate global government takeover, the people are asleep and wars are being launched against innocents in the name of a bleeding heat liberal agenda.

The Cannibal Warlords of Liberia (Full Length Documentary) Published on Jun 13, 2012 VICE travels to West Africa to rummage through the messy remains of a country ravaged by 14 years of civil war. Despite the United Nation's eventual intervention, most of Liberia's young people continue to live in abject poverty, surrounded by filth, drug addiction, and teenage prostitution. The former child soldiers who were forced into war have been left to fend for themselves, the murderous warlords who once led them in cannibalistic rampages have taken up as so-called community leaders, and new militias are lying in wait for the opportunity to reclaim their country from a government they rightly mistrust. Africa Investigates - Sierra Leone: Timber! Uploaded on Nov 23, 2011 In this edition of Africa Investigates, reporter Sorious Samura exposes the high level corruption that is stripping his Sierra Leone bare. UN concerned over Bungoma attacks Updated Friday, May 10th 2013 a 15:11 GMT +3 By Beatrice Obwocha Nairobi, Kenya: The United Nations has expressed concern over recent attacks in Bungoma and Busia and asked the Kenyan government to take action to stem insecurity in the area. The UN concerns came even as Deputy President William Ruto visited Bungoma over insecurity that has hit the area. Ruto met security officials at St Patrick Pastoral Center in Bungoma County. In a statement, the UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator Modibo Toure condemned the attack and said they will monitor closely the situation in the two areas. "Cognisant of the recent security incidents in Tana River County, I would like to urge the Government to take appropriate action to promptly stem the insecurity in Busia and Bungoma, in line with applicable international and domestic standards on protection of civilians and respect for human rights," he said in the statement. He termed the attack as inhumane acts as it has left 10 people dead and at least 100 injured. "Tension in the area remains high and residents are apprehensive, as the motive behind the indiscriminate attacks is unknown. Livelihoods and ordinary activities have been brought to a standstill," Toure added and conveyed his condolences to the affected families. The Humanitarian Coordinator acknowledged efforts undertaken so far by the Government and called for assistance to the affected people and support them in rebuilding their livelihoods. The gangs attack villagers at night. Police have been deployed in the two areas to beef up security. On Thursday, Inspector General of Police David Kimaiyo announced a cash reward of Sh100,000 to anyone with crucial leads into the killings. He also banned all night activities and asked boda boda operators in the regions to limit movement to daytime. He also said officers who have 'overstayed' in affected counties and the entire Western, have been transferred to enhance service delivery. Another ICC witness against Ruto steps down Updated Friday, May 10th 2013 a 13:38 GMT +3 By Isaiah Lucheli Nairobi, Kenya: A second International Criminal Court ( ICC) witness has withdrawn his evidence against Deputy President William Ruto. This is the second witness to step down against the Deputy President. The first witness stepped down in March. Through lawyer Paul Gicheru, the first witness to step down wrote to the ICC prosecutor withdrawing each and every piece of evidence attributed to him and asked to have his name removed from the list of the prosecution witnesses. The witness in a sworn affidavit explains that during the 2007 general election he was a PNU official but after election he was induced and enticed to be a witness of the ICC. Ruto was one of the ODM pentagon members. "I have never personally visited any of the homes of William Ruto and I did not witness any event and cannot vouch for the truth or otherwise of any allegation that has been made or attributed to me against him," said the witness in the affidavit. He further claimed in the affidavit that he was promised that he would be rewarded and settled either in Europe, America or Australia if he testified before the ICC and that his standard of living would improve tremendously. Why ICC cases against Uhuru, Ruto should not be terminated Updated Friday, May 10th 2013 a 10:12 GMT +3 By Jacktone S. Ambuka The Kenyan government has petitioned United Nation Security Council for "immediate termination" of all cases at The Hague based International Criminal Court ( ICC). Early last year, the court indicted Kenyan president Mr Uhuru Kenyatta, his Deputy Mr William Ruto and a journalist Mr Joshua Arap Sang' for crimes against humanity. Interestingly, Deputy President Ruto has disassociated himself from the government's plan to terminate cases of crimes against humanity. Which begs three questions, was it President Uhuru's plan? Is the right hand doing things in secrecy while excluding the left hand? On whose behalf did Mr. Macharia file the petition? Time will tell. However, while speaking on behalf of Ruto, Lawyer Karim Khan asserted: "I have spoken to my client, His Excellency the Deputy President of the Republic of Kenya, Mr William Ruto, and I can confirm and he has made clear that he was not consulted on anything to do with New York. A letter being circulated is not a government policy." Yet, in the said letter to the UN which sounded condescending yet lacking diplomatic language, Kenyan permanent representative to the UN headquarters in New York, Mr. Kamau Macharia raised a sensational alarm. He warned that if Mr. Uhuru and Mr. Ruto will be arraigned before the ICC judges to answer to charges of crimes against humanity, "violence could break out in Kenya that would affect stability in the entire region." What a sensational claim and false alarm? Someone should to tell Mr. Kamau Macharia that time is out for the war mongers and those who spread rumors of war and violence. In the first place, justice is never dependent upon peace. To the contrary, peace is the product of justice. Peace that abounds where injustice flourishes is only but cosmetic peace that will eventually dissipate. And yes, there can never be peace without justice of sort. If retributive justice that embraces punishment for crimes committed is unfathomable to our Kenya society, then, we should try restorative justice-the South African model of justice which was hinged on the idea of public profession of truth, confession of sins committed, forgiveness and reconciliation. In one way or another, we must face our fears and our past so that we can shape our future with hope. The popular cliché of "moving on" without addressing the past is unsustainable and will lead us into damnation. In my opinion, Mr. Uhuru and Mr. Ruto should be bold enough and face ICC judges so that justice can be served for the duo and for the victims of the post-election violence. Both Mr. Uhuru, Mr. Ruto have consistently professed innocence. As a matter of principle, we have to believe their confession and accord them benefit of the doubt. But due process of the ICC cases which include appearing before the court of law to be tried for crimes which they have been accused of should run to its logical conclusion and must not be tempered with. Moreover, President Uhuru and Ruto have claimed that charges against them were politically motivated, lack sufficient evidence, investigation was incoherent and witnesses were coached. That sounds like a crumbling case. If indeed their assertion is anything to go by, then shouldn't they be bold enough to face ICC judges without fear and rebut every single evidence against them with certainty of vindication? Your guess is as good as mine. Where there is smoke, there is fire. However, we cannot afford to burry our heads in the sand and pretend that justice isn't being violated. My appeal to the United Nation is that give the accused and the victims of the post-election violence a chance to be heard. Discontinuation of ICC cases against the two will be discontinuation of justice. Like President Uhuru and his deputy Ruto, there are so many Kenyans facing crimes in the courts of law both home and abroad. Should all the court cases facing Kenyans be discontinued? The answer is no. Every accused person has a constitutional right to be heard. Let every Kenyan accused of crimes carry his or her own cross. If indeed they are innocent, justice system will acquit them in the fullness of time. Otherwise petitioning UN to terminate ICC cases based on such frivolous reason is in essence admission of guilt. -The writer is a Kenyan residing at State College Pennsylvania, USA. |
