From Keith Harmon Snow the real story of what the Anglo Empire Military and Business interests are doing in Central Africa, check him out and add him as a friend if you havent yet done so. - At present, the propaganda system is again trotting out the refrain that rebels in Congo have been defeated. The latest so-called rebels -- the M23 forces -- are actually Rwandan government troops, not rebels. (True Congolese rebels -- such as the Mai Mai [also incorrectly spelled Mayi-Mayi] are always denigrated by the international corporate media system. Reports now appearing in the western mass media are that the M23 rebels have surrendered in Uganda, or turned themselves in in Rwanda. This is nonsense, since these are Rwandan Defense Forces, most of them formerly National Congress for the Defense of the People (CNDP) rebels, formerly Congolese Rally for Democracy rebels, formerly of the Rwandan Patriotic Army/Movement (RPA/RPF), formerly Ugandan Peoples Defense Forces (UPDF), formerly National Resistance Army/Movement (NRA/M) troops. (This is especially true of commanders, e.g.: James Kabarebe, Laurent Nkundabatware, and many others). The varying incarnations of rebels in eastern Congo have all and always been backed by Museveni (Uganda) and Kagame (Rwanda), in turn backed by the USA, UK and Israel. M23 is the same: another predominantly Tutsi army serving the Tutsi/Hema elites -- not the people of Uganda or the people of Rwanda/Burundi. Meanwhile, in Kinshasa, Hippolyte Kanambe (alias Joseph Kabila) is showing his consistent treasonous betrayal of the people of Congo by calling for the M23 rebels to be included in the political process. How and why would the president of Congo be inviting defeated guerillas who have committed war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide in Congo (1996-2013), Rwanda (1990-1995) and Uganda (1980-1985) to participate in the political process? Kanambe is another tutsi elite (his uncle is James Kabarebe) and his goal as Trojan Horse (see, e.g, Yaa-Lengi Ngemi, Kagames Trojan Horse in the Congo, New York Times, November 29, 2012) is to further integrate/infiltrate Rwandan guerillas and politicians into the Congo. Media reports have exaggerated the fighting between Congolese troops (FARDC) and their U.N. partner army the Rapid Intervention Forces, against the M23: most M23 were warned in advance of an impending assault and they fled to Rwanda and Uganda. Meanwhile, multinational corporations operating in eastern Congo under the media radar, but soaked in Congolese blood, include Banro Gold, Casa Mining, Randgold, Mwana Africa, Loncor, Anglo-Gold Ashanti, Kilo Gold, and Moku Gold. These corporations benefit from having the Rwandan Tutsi in Kinshasa (Kanambe) and have deep ties to the criminal extortion, money-laundering, racketeering and theft behind the plunder and depopulation in the Great Lakes countries. The United Nations Forces (MONUC, MONUSCO) and the Rapid Intervention Forces (note the heavy presence of South African troops AND South African mining companies in eastern Congo) serve the corporate agenda. Meanwhile, TIME Magazine this week (Nov. 11, 2013) ran a little propaganda clip titled, Saving Congos Gorillas. In typical western media fashion, the furry primates are portrayed as the supreme victims of war in the Great Lakes region. The page-and-a-half story offers an interesting trail for anyone interested in understanding the nature of power and the political economy of the mass media. For example, if you havent heard, former Massachusetts Senator John Kerry is now Barrack Obamas new Secretary of State (replacing Hillary Clinton). The gorilla story doesnt mention Kerry at all, though it might have, since Kerry traveled to Rwanda and has extensive ties to Kagame. Kerry also unveiled new diplomatic cooperation (PERFAR) with South Africa (note those S. African mining companies and S. African troops in Congo!), Rwanda and Namibia (run by another criminal enterprise backed by Washington)(and, also, especially, by the world diamond cartels). But, again, the short gorilla story does not mention Kerry. It does however mention a formerly mostly-unheard-of gorilla reserve, Senkwekwe Orphan Mountain Gorilla Center., described by Time as a refugee camp for primate victims of war. Never mind the hundreds of thousands of human refugees in the region....or the ongoing genocide against Congolese peoples... So, lets follow the trail. Senkwekwe, it turns out, gets some funding from the capitalist Buffet enterprises -- in particular, the Howard G. Buffet Foundation. The gorilla story in Time doesnt tell you this. Time doesnt tell us that Warren Buffet, Howard G. Buffet and their companies, Berkshire Hathaway, have been deeply tied to the plunder and depopulation in the Great Lakes countries, and in Sudan. The Howard G. Buffet Foundation claims to have donated over $US 1 million to the World Food Program. Any enterprising honest journalist who wanted to look into this would find a haven of tax breaks, rotten grains, and corporate profiteering all at the expense of US taxpayers, all under the guise of the World Food Program, and involving protectionist agribusiness. Corporations like Con Agra and Archers Daniels Midland -- both tied to the Buffets -- that reap huge benefits by dumping shitty food on the World Food Program with the help of U.S. politicians. Buffet also claims to have provided “capacity-building and operations support for Virunga’s National Park rangers” and “Humanitarian support for counter-LRA efforts”. Unpack these claims and you will find the ugliest realities of predatory capitalism. War is Peace. Humanitarian support for counter LRA-efforts ??? What counter LRA-efforts (Lords Resistance Army) could possibly involve anything humanitarian? But, lets dig a little deeper, though, and VOILA! see what we find (found). Warren Buffet is also on the Board of Directors of the H.J. Heinz Corporation. In fact, Berkshire Hathaway acquired H.J. Heinz in June 2013. What does H. J. Heinz have to do with Congo? Why did John Kerry travel there? What are the real Buffet interests in the region? Well, I will only offer a small tidbit of insight: John Kerrys wife is Teresa Heinz, of the H.J. Heinz fortune. Bottom line: THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT ANY OF TEH RECENT REPORTAGE IN ANY MAJOR VENUE THAT TELLS ANYTHING CLOSE TO THE WHOLE TRUTH ABOUT THE ONGOING GENOCIDE AND DEPOPULATION IN AFRICA. If you are consuming the western mass media (TIME Magazine, New York Times, etc.) you are contributing to your own mental illness, and to the war against the people of Africa.
