Inoncent people in the DR Congo are victims of theaves who are killing, violating and displacing them to still mines, timbers.. They have interest to keep the country in trouble in order to operate freely. Up to know the different effort deployed to end the violences are not enough because of the support these criminals have from abroad. The enter the DR Congo from Rwanda and Kampala, countries whose presidents are operating with these criminals in order to stay longer in power. To end up the violences in the easthern part of The DR Congo these two countries have to democratise their political systems and autorise the multiparty activities. Otherwise they will never be durable peace in the easthern part of The DR Congo.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/clinton_goma1/ Tue Sep 01, 2009

Dear Mrs. Clinton: May God bless you for all that you have done and continue to do. I grew up an Army brat and their is no place like America. Many people suffer immeasurable hardships beginning from birth. I pray the relief day comes soon. I hope that President Kabila stands up for his citizens and rights all of the wrongs. I am so proud of you representing America and helping these unfortunate people. How your heart must have ached as mine did reading your words.

Thank you so much.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/clinton_goma1/ Wed Aug 26, 2009
It may be too soon to guage the effect of the Secretary's logic and words of concern upon the leaders of nations she visited, but at least in Nigeria's case, they took rather strong action within their banking sector to address corruption, and the amnesty deal offered to rebels has met with some success with the main rebel group leader quoted as saying that "it is time to give peace a chance" and turning in his group's weaponry.

Whether this is in part as a result of a little "motivational support" from the Secretary or not, I can see some progress from where I sit.

Folks are starting to get serious about reform and good governance.

On an unrelated domestic note:

My condolences to Sen. Ted Kennedy's family on their loss.

If a health care bill gets passed this year, I hope Congress puts his name on it. It would seem only fitting tribute to the man for the last bit of legistlation he worked on, and don't be suprised if his presence is felt as the vote is called.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/clinton_goma1/ Wed Aug 26, 2009
Well, I didn't expect anything less from Secretary Hillary Clinton. Thank you for your perseverance in making change happen for those less fortunate...the minority population. All it takes is awareness for change to happen and get the momentum going in ending these types of crimes against mankind.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/clinton_goma1/ Wed Aug 26, 2009
Thank you so much Secretary Clinton and U.S. State Department for emphatically addressing such an important issue. We know that sexual violence is about power and control. That those in military authority would seek to augment their power through this form of oppression of women and girls is appalling. We can hope that the Congolese can find a way to make such crimes culturally abhorrent.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/clinton_goma1/ Wed Aug 26, 2009
Dear to ..

like a Nigeria

With Federation of Nigeria the country where the same underground resources is abundant, the place where the many international speculative capital conspires with a corruption influence is many, the intervention at the time of which is direct the counter result is number of days rather,Them and agreement or there is a possibility must conspire the right thinks also the union which is internal that the method which is indirect is right

Dear to ...

(very simple thought of about Africa)

To subject does not hit, about Africa about assistance method secret intention thought

The northern part, the central part, divides in the southern part area, the southern part the Republic of South Africa the central part supports Republic of Kenya importantly using a method will not be and efficient intelligence?

support, the nation of all Africa all at once, sees that there is a limit. Thinks each area presenting one standard one method. Chief of schedule area (?) Does making a duty do? and..

The northern part area does not decide the specific nation and instead of the single step from the work which prevents a drought to do, comes out, thinks, "eu" schedule partial responsibility does making come one method.

sorry, One will be able to solve one by one thinks about all problems that.

sorry...]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/clinton_goma1/ Tue Aug 25, 2009
Every woman throughout the world should support Secretary Clinton's efforts on behalf of African women who have been brutalized, enslaved, murdered, and abused for centuries. Those of us in America should not forget our sisters here who also are subjected to the same unacceptable conditions. Despite the fact American women live in the most powerful nation in the world, many still experience similar horrors at the hands of significant others, cults, parents, offspring, and a system that oftentimes ignores or downplays crimes against women in our own country. We must not forget for one moment when one woman suffers, we all suffer. As the mother of two daughters and grandmother to three granddaughters, I would like to see $3 million more allocated for programs to benefit women in my country - in particular a substantial chunk for communities in my state for those who most need help now.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/clinton_goma1/ Mon Aug 24, 2009
This is certainly a valuable campaign. I am very glad to see this policy undertaken under the auspices of the State Department of the United States. It is certainly a forward-looking and much needed benefit for all humankind.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/clinton_goma1/ Mon Aug 24, 2009
I am proud that Hillary Clinton is highlighting the unspeakable conditions for women in Africa. I appreciate her commitment to this subject, both in Africa and around the world. I hope that no one can dissuade Secretary of State Clinton from showing through words and actions that the United States supports changes that make the conditions for women more humane and their chances for living fulfilled lives more possible]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/clinton_goma1/ Mon Aug 24, 2009
Thank you Secretary Clinton, for focusing the world's attention on this enduring scourge of rape as a weapon of war. I particularly appreciate your attention to the link between economics and rape -- i.e. that we have to know more about mining in the region and its links to the army and militias' use of sexual violence.

Sanctions on companies doing business with militia (whose leaders make literally millions) and the DRC government might well be a strategy to pursue.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/clinton_goma1/ Mon Aug 24, 2009
The narrative of this visit to Goma was distressing. The violence in Africa must be addressed. We are proud and pleased with Secretary Clinton as she went straight to the heart of the matter and demanded that the civil rights and dignity of each person be the priority of African governments.]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/clinton_goma1/ Mon Aug 24, 2009
