Cannibalism in the Congo
Here seems to be another mess for the UN to clean up. I wonder when it will move beyond investigation and into doing something about it? How long must Africa suffer?

1. How many volunteers
do you think they're getting for this?
"...and said the United Nations was sending human rights officials and military observers to the area to investigate the reports. "There are a lot of wild rumours and speculation here...."

4. I'm not sur what you are saying here.
Are you saying rape is worse than cannibalism? I cannot agree with that. However, the article, while dealing primarily with rape also mentioned other atrocities, including cannibalism.

Where does John Kerry stand on this issue? Seems like easy votes to me from hundreds of thousands of people that care about people. Hey, inquiring minds want to know what can be done??
