Grotesque vocabulary in Congo

I learned some new words today from incidents that happen in Congo everyday. One is auto canibbalism. Its when someone cuts their one flesh and eats it. They eat a part of their own body and this happnes in COngo. Militia in eastern Congo force people to do that. Another one is rerape. Rerape is basically self explanatory its when the women in Congo who get raped, reraped, and reraped and raped again and again. The author of the article is focusing how U.S. should start a diplomatic push for peace because we are a superpower. Even though we have are own needs and we are in a recession we have the ability to do this and its the right thing. The author talks about things we can do to help Ocngo out he has a four step process. He says we first have to put pressure on Rwanda and stop funding its tutsi militia in Congo. Basically stop the Rwanda war in Congo. The next step is to keep tabs on warlords and what they export or import. Also start returning civilian life in Rwanda. finally arrest people and build a army for Congo. I think we should have helped then long ago and not wait till now to put it on our shoulders because we have problems of ouru own. But we have to start somewhere.
