The agonies of present-day Africa are deeply etched on the bodies of women. In eastern Congo on the Rwandan border, vying militias, armies and bandits use rape as a weapon of terror. Lumo Sinai was just over 20 when marauding soldiers attacked her. A fistula, a medical condition common among victims of violent rape, rendered Lumo incontinent and threatens her ability to bear children. Rejected by her fiancé and cast aside by her family, she awaits reconstructive surgery. "Lumo," airing on PBS's POV series on September 18, 2007, is her story, tragic in its cruelties but also inspiring for the struggle she wages and the dignity she displays, with the help of an extraordinary African hospital, to overcome shame, fear and the affliction that robs her of a normal life.

This report is an edited version of a TV interview shot in a secret location in the Congolese jungle in 2006. It remains the first and only exclusive interview that Joseph Kony has ever given. It took nearly a year of negotiations for Kony to agree to this interview in which he claims the LRA have never been involved in any abductions, rapes or mutilations. Kony denies suggestions God told him to fight but admits to being guided by "very many spirits." Filmed, Reported, Directed and Produced by Sam Farmar www.samfarmar.com Co Directed and Produced by Mareike Schomerus To licence footage contact Journeyman pictures: www.journeyman.tv info@journeyman.tv To licence still images of Joseph Kony + the LRA contact samfarmar@gmail.com - I believe Kony2012 is the most creative positive solution to a deadly problem I have ever seen. Although I am in no way affiliated with Invisible Children I am familiar with their work and I am a supporter of their campaign. I have also met the Invisible Children film maker Jason Russell and I am not in anyway suspicious of his motives. What else has engaged the man on the street more to care about others whom they will probably never meet? Kony might have moved on from Uganda to Congo and Sudan but he is very much still alive and is ruthlessly killing people and abducting children - something that needs to stop. Some may think it surprising that I have met Kony and yes it took much perseverance and some very diligent reseach, much of it by ...

Larry Devlin, a former CIA agent, has released a book on his time as CIA Chief of Station in the Congo, in which he provides details of an American order to assassinate Congo's first post-independence prime minister, Patrice Lumumba. In June 1960, a newly-independent country in central Africa, headed by a young, 35 year-old prime minister, appeared to have everything going its way. The Democratic Republic of Congo, hugely rich in agriculture, oil and other commodities seemed about to take its place on the world stage. Then it all went horribly wrong. Within months, Patrice Lumumba, the country's hugely popular prime minister, was dead. A recently published book is providing new insight into the events that led to the demise of a country that had seemed certain to be an African star. Seated in his Virginia home, 84 year old Larry Devlin appears to be relishing retirement. He may seem like an ordinary man, but Devlin has had an extraordinary life by any standards. Devlin was recruited to the CIA in 1948 and convinced to be the Chief of Station in Congo in July 1960, just 10 days after the country's independence from Belgium and shortly before Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba's two month term in office. Devlin openly admits knowing little about Africa, but was driven to the region by the theory that his role in gathering intelligence would enable the US to avoid a hot war with the Soviet Union. Now retired, Devlin has written of his experience in a newly released book called ...

Pakistan is the next big target here, either for a color revolution, or for another invasion. The color revolution seems, to me, to be the most likely course here (although it will no doubt be followed by heavy NATO policing of the country). The idea is to shred Pakistan and break it into 3 or 4 parts, no doubt, but it's easier to do it over time, through soft power means, using the Iranians as allies in the diplomatic and commercial spheres. That would be in accordance with the doctrine that was laid out by Brzezinski and Robert Gates, in their 2004 paper, "Iran: Time for a New Approach" (published by the CFR). So, I don't really share Jones' concerns for the beginning of a full-scale world war (and, as is evident, I hope to be right in that). But the danger of a false-flag, possibly with nukes, is VERY self-evident. With the so-called death of the actor Osama, they need to recreate some monster, perhaps in the figure of Osama's number two, Al-Zawahiri. -------------------- The mass campaign of destabilization being waged all across North Africa and the Middle East has its most recent parallel in the wave of chaos that was unleashed on Black Africa back in the 1970s. The keywords here are divide and rule, create chaos to impose a new order of things. Use any means whatsoever to shred the sovereign nation-state. Then, balkanize the population to keep them squabbling with each other, safe in the knowledge that natural resources are yours to take, and human resources will ...

Professor Philip Bobbitt describes the wars for the 21st century as wars against terror — against modern market-state terrorism, against the distribution and assimilation of weapons of mass destruction, and against the forces that create human catastrophes, such as genocide and ethnic cleansing. During the 20th century it was important that the law and the allied war strategy were separate. According to Bobbitt, We won the war and then the law followed. In the current century, however, Bobbitt says, our challenge is to unite the two: law and war strategy must meet because we are now fighting to protect what free people have the lawful right to do. But how do we strengthen the power of government to protect us and at the same time protect civil and human rights?

Post looks at the way that this foild terrorism plot is being used as a new way to negtavily stereotype Africans. Doesn't matter if we're Nigerian, Congolese, Senegalese, etc. The wolrd still sees as one country. Many media outlets hear the word "Nigerian", but they're thinking "African". The word terrorist can now be added to the African images of war, AIDS, famine, and amputees. As someone who has been to 10 African countries, this is just not the complete picture. This foiled attack was a near tragedy for American, but is already tragic for all Africans as the media has a field day with this attacker. Thanks again...
