On My Mind...

Africa, the Mother Land of the World. Where life started. I really don't understand why Africa is so curupt. I don't think Africa, out of all countries should be in such devastatoin. Africa is known to the world as the biggest resources with diamonds, gold, copper, cobalt and zinc. Why are they going through this? Today, I got more information about the situation dealing with the Tutsi and Hutu. As you may or may not know, the Hutu's are the ones who are associated with the famous yet sad genocide. Democrate Republic Congo (as you may or may not know) has about 2 million Hutu who fled from Rwanda to the DR Congo. Joseph Mobutu was the first ruler after the Belgians were forced out. And like many people with too much power, Mobutu became corrupt with power (go figure). After the Hutus fled, they allied themselves with Mobutu's goverment. Things start to become about money, and the government's soilders switch over, helping the Hutus. The Tutsi militias, allied to other local groups backed by Uganda, eventually marched on Kinshasa and overthrew Mobutu's government. They installed Laurent Kabila as president and he renamed the country - from Zaire to DR Congo. (what we know now) But Kabila failed to expel the Hutu militia and tinu Rwanda, (you can see the problem here) which had put him in power, soon sent a new force to oust him.
Knowing about this and knowing there isn't much I could do really sickens me.
Thats all for today..
