I know this sort of stuff is probably getting old, but where are Human Rights Watch or Amnesty International on the
"systematic cannibalism, rape, torture and killing by rebels in a campaign of atrocities against civilians in the forests of northeast Congo, with children among the victims"?I've visited both sites, and the most recent documents I can find with the search term 'congo' are from December. Is forced cannibalism not a human rights concern?
The UN investigative team has confirmed a list of atrocities that read like a Brett Easton Ellis novel:
- the removal and consumption of hearts of infants,
- small girls killed and mutilated,
- people executed before their families
- the rape of small children
- cannibalism and forced cannibalism, including people made by rebels to eat members of their own family

Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:
*This* puts text in bold.
_This_ puts text in italics.
bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.
To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.
