Jesus! White supremacy is really ugly and even harder to look at straight.

Check out my web site. Not te pics of the two boys (South Kivu) tied up on the home page.

Its al managed inequality, as far as the so called HUMANITARIAN sector, and out right mass murder as far as the mining companies go in Congo.

AMERICAS WAR IN CENTRAL AFRICA
: The Pentagon’s Proxy War in the Eastern Congo

The PDF is a photo version of the Ben Affleck story published in HTML on 1 February 2009 by Global Research — pulled by GR mid-February after BANRO GOLD Corporation (Canada) threatened legal action. (The purported ‘arrest’ of General Laurent Nkunda, on January 22, 2009, by the troops of the joint FARDC and Rwandan Defense Forces (RDF) operation is no surprise, it is merely damage control, with Nkunda ‘arrested’—most likely shuffled off to luxury in Rwanda—to recover some sense of credibility for the international police forces—the Pentagon and its proxy armies in Rwanda (Kagame), Uganda (Museveni) and Congo (Kabila)—and to enable the Kagame military cabal to distance itself from the recent exposés documenting Rwanda’s machinations in eastern Congo. A U.S. military team has also been deployed in Eastern Congo, to buttress the Pentagon’s proxy warriors. Nothing has changed for the people of Congo, and MONUC Chief Alan Doss has warned people to expect “collateral damage” against the innocent people of Congo. – see also: http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=12113)

I thought you said you worked for a “mainstream news” organization?#

L O L !!!!!

Banro has hired lawyers to threaten me and they have succeeded in scaring one publisher away from publishing my work on line. They have also a massive lawsuit against the Canadian publishers of a book called NOIR CANADA, which is causing a lot of fear amongst publishers. SCOOP New Zealand was threatened by lawyers for H Oil, also mentioned in my story, which the editors pulled and published a retraction and apology for.

People need to support independent journalism, now.

The more I read, the more I learn how Banro and others continue to cause the killings of millions in the Congo. I also want to learn more about CountourGlobal with their new gas project in the lake Kivu.

You wrote:

“I’ve never seen such a concentration of misinformation and idiocy in my life!”

I thought you said you worked for a “mainstream news” organization?

All of these issues you list as “conspiracies” have no relationship to my work, as you will note that I do not anywhere address any of them. What I do address is how corporations like Banro, H Oil, Barrick, Heritage, Shell, etc etc are plundering Africa and killing Africans, and how organizations purporting to be “news” completely cover up their involvement.

Look in the mirror. Your posts are known as “proections of the shadow” (yours) in psychology terms. This means you are actually guilty of everything you accuse me of, but because it is so hard to face — due to your interests — which you dont have the courage to disclose — your own moral degradation.

The truth is to live your job and find yourself a labour job.
je crois que tu n’es que simple foux de folie . have you met kagame? Tell us how many kilogram of diamot did bring to your family? any way why are you interesting in rwanda? let those compentents to do their job in peace without the terroirist like you. You need to capture and have the same like Saddam Essein in Irak.
I am rwandan. if you did not undestand. i have enought and i know enought to be the judge.YOU DO NOT HAVE YOUR PLACE IN THIS INTELLECTUAL SPACE. PLEASE LEAVE AND GO AWAY. But congratulation for having a Doctorat PHD in insultes. You haven’t got any education from your parentsDo you know what “IDIOT” means i think you could be one.

Having a site from which to spout this nonsense does not give you stature Keith. It just broadcasts your idiocy more widely. People have tried to shut me up before. Why? Because I was telling the truth. No one’s trying to shut you up, you self-aggrandizing fantasist, you little boy. Why would they need to? Nothing you say is taken seriously. Why? Because none of it approaches anything resembling the truth.

I guess this site does serve one purpose, however. It corrals all the morons in one place, and keeps you away from the rest of us.

WHAT DO YOU ?????
I am rwandan, i lived in congo for many years. My option is to tell you to go outside and star to play ass an actor like BORAT, because when you don’t know what is going on and also be part may be of those who benefic from congo-rwanda richess you have to shout your mouth. and i will do may best to find out your anonymous may be criminal mainstream news organization and may be shoulb be include in one of the criminal organisation which will appaer in court together with kagame and his cloud .Do you know how many people are dieing every second?in rwanda prisons, in congo. If you have a country or a villige where you are i highly ecommend to go any buy a farm to teach the what you are telling people. because what you are selling is for those whom do not have eyes and hears.

Good bye Mr aveugle Pip.
you have a farm in your villige waiting for you.

Indeed, I missed that very telling statement:

Our unidentified mainstream journalists, or so they say, writes above:

>>>”Nor would they ( “Real Reporters” ) be put off by the kind of danger offered by Rwanda, which is minimal to nil — but then you’d wouldn’t know that because you don’t go, do you?”

Sounds like you’ve been reading Terry Tempest Williams and ORION Magazine for your (fascist) take on Rwanda:
http://www.orionmagazine.org/index.php/articles/article/3207

But you actually make my point for me. Anyone who challenges the corrupt Kagame regime at ANY reasonable level is targeted and cannot, safely, “travel” (work or live) there. Thus we see where you are coming from.

Stop selling out the world. People are being hurt by your narrow selfishness and obvious imperial fascism.

you prophecy that keith might go into even greater spasm if you revealed more of your position. this is not only a prophecy but a condemnation or even a wish he indeed go ballistic.

sorry, but to me, your ‘report’ is standart MS fare. it consists in the main of personal attacks; omission of salient facts; halftruths; obvious lies, etc.

while you accuse keith for not quoting sources, you self report that there is minimal to nil violence in rwanda. but according to whom?
and what minimal means? why vagueness?

Indeed, you use the shield of the western news estabilshment to disguise your disingenousness. What exactly are you afraid of?

Using the description of “conspircy theory” to denounce my work, for example, is an old and tiresome ruse.

Fact is you are obviously blinded by your interests. If you were honest you wouldn’t hesitate to identify your self and let readers decide for themselves. If your work was honest I would not then criticize it. However, for someone who actually HAS travelled to Congo (or Sudan or Afghanistan) the mainstream “news” establishment as a problem: trying to shut me up. One who is not selling out the people of color in the world comes to see reality for what it is, and it makes it just a bit harder for liars to get away with their (your?) lies when we have the actual names and faces (photographs) validating the hidden deceptions of the sultans of spin.

If you and so many otheres were not so busy prostituting the “journalism” a.k.a. “news” media sector then people who strive to tell the truth without bias could have an equitable space from which to operate and report — however all that money merely circulates from white people to white people and instead all you do is perpetuate structural violence.

My work is well sourced, and as far as “first hand quotes” — what a laughable statement coming from a self described mainstream reporter wo operates with huge expense accounts.

What is really charming is that I am able to do better work on zero budget, moving in and out of these conflict zones to the best of my capacity, without compromising the facts.

The Congolese people know the truth when they see it.

Your critique sounds very nice, but it doesnt apply to me. Save it for ignorant armchair white bloggers — of which there are indeed no shortage.

Keith — you are entitled to your views. They are colorful and entertaining. But to try to class this piece above as reporting is an insult to real reporters, and a deception to anyone who reads you. And by real reporters, I mean people who do actually go places and talk to people there — and people who would understand that two years is a very long time, particularly in a place like Congo, and to whom writing a piece without going for two years would be anaethema. Nor would they be put off by the kind of danger offered by Rwanda, which is minimal to nil — but then you’d wouldn’t know that because you don’t go, do you?

You, as the saying goes in the trade, are pulling this out of your ass. One very good reason stories like the one you present above are ignored by the mainstream media is that they simply aren’t good enough. No sourcing. No first-hand quotes. No reporting, for chrissakes.

My advice: get off the armchair, put the conspiracy theorising aside, get out in the world and do some real journalism. You might like it.

This is not empty polemic. So little has changed on the ground in eastern congo that your critique is is actually the problem, not my reportage. What has changed is that an additional 1500 people have died daily since I left in the Kivus alone.

There are very few reporters telling the truth about Congo. Not one single mainstream reporter, in fact, has been completely honest about congo, Rwanda, Darfur, Uganda… and mopst “alternative” journalists are no better.

We can name names and deconstruct their reportage if you like and can do so definitively. Your critique reminds me of the response I receive from Rene Lemarchard — who has been funded over and over by USAID it seems.

Who would you suggest is honest? What story in what newspaper or magazine?

Whats most interesting is that you dont offer your real name, and so it seems you have something to hide. This is the height of cowardice.

So lets hear from you what takes you to congo and rwanda and where your interests lie. How do you profit from the murder and expropriation? Who pays your salary when you come and go? What are you selling or buying there?

White supremacy is ugliest when it challenges those who expose it.

So instead of offering a useless complaint, you now have to back up your empty rhetoric and defense of fascism with facts. When you do that, exposing the corporate exploitation and agents for who and what they are, then I will consider your comments sincere. Otherwise, stop contributing to the problem.

P.S. Happy to travel with you to Congo any time. Please make a donation so I can afford another air ticket. Those who speak honestly about Rwanda cant safely go there.

Winter-spring 2007 is a long time ago, no? Two years. Particularly given what has happened since. Nor have you spoken to Affleck or Kagame or Nkunda — or any of the players, as far as I can see. If this is your polemic, then fine. But you seem to be presenting it as reporting, which is an insult to good reporters who do spend time on the ground, often at great personal risk.

That lack of on-the-ground research shows in your theory. The idea that Kagame, Affleck and the UN are bound up in some sort of contiguous conspiracy is crazy — Kagame invaded Congo because he reckons MONUC and the UN are useless. There’s no substitute for being there — internet trawling for facts is very second best. As a result, I just don’t recognize the Congo and Rwanda I know — and I’ve been several times in the past year too both — from your piece.

The broader point is that there is a big difference between skepticism and cynicism. All good reporters should be skeptical. People lie to reporters, and a reporter’s job is to find the truth. Cynicism is something completely different. It’s a distortion. It predisposes you to see the negative. It’s a prejudice, actually. It’s certainly not smart or diligent. And cynicism is what you display here, and your accuracy suffers horribly as a result.

There are good reasons for going after Kagame and the UN and other players in Congo. Find them. This kind of lazy polemic only damages you and allows your targets to dismiss you.
