    As one of the people whos Brother is in the middle of this war i am asking myself where is the South African formal statement on this matter. They dont have enough equipment there we need Leadership in this country. Where is the South African President this country needs your Leadership.

      Stop blaming Government, you voted them for decades so it’s your fault! South Africans lost no wars pre 94’ not even to the British! We downed arms to Britain because they killed women and children in concentration camps after the huge beating the took!!!
      This is just another case of DEI and racist Africans demanding jobs that they have no understanding of. Nobody in South Africa fears the police or army, we have no respect or do not care as we all know what the civil service was, what it is today and who was and is now.
      Like everything else, everything Africans touch just falls apart, excuses follow and gaslighting whites begin 😂

    But why do international communities forget or ignore Tutsia refugees who have been in camps for more than 3 decades in Uganda, Rwanda, and Kenya and even in most western countries.Just because they are the minority it doesn't mean they should be discriminated.Since 1994 Congolese Tutsis were been mascared by FARDC, FDLR, Nyatura, mai mai, Codeco, and other militias who were against the Tutsis and DRC government failed to protect their own citizens. Now, they have to stand up to fight for their survival. This is all caused by the governments failure to protect their people and they always try to blame it on the minority just because they don't have the right media to show the world what is being done to them.We can't be this ignorant this are Congolese citizens fighting for their rights not Rwanda.This is hypocrisy of the highest level every group in a war must have allies the same way the Congo government have SADC and many other military groups from other different countries helping them to fighting their own citizens instead of trying to come up with a solution, the M23 is allowed to have support from people who understand their problems to. Therefore, let’s not be hypocrites and try to think logically.

    The killing of peacekeepers in Goma was carried out by the FARDC-FDLR-Burundi Armed Group-Wazalendo coalition. This mirrors what the FDLR (formerly FAR) did in Rwanda during the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi, when they killed 12 Belgian UN Peacekeepers (MINUAR). They are experts at this. Thérèse Kayikwamba Wagner is strategically shifting responsibility to the RDF and M23 to deflect attention from the killings of UN peacekeepers in Goma by the FARDC-FDLR (former FAR)-Burundian Army-Wazalendo coalition.
