WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Democratic Republic of Congo President Jospeh Kabila was in Luanda on Monday for a meeting with his Angolan counterpart José Edouardo dos Santos on stability in the region. DRC specialist Claude Kabemba tells RFI the recent spat between the two countries over refugees is a symptom of deeper economic and political tensions, which the leaders will try to resolve.
Last year, the countries engaged in tit-for-tat expulsions. Congolese citizens who were living illegally in Angola were sent away, then Angolans were expelled the DRC, even though many of these were legal immigrants. Both countries agreed last October to suspend the expulsions.
“There has been tension between the two governments related to economic issues,” says Kabemba, a researcher at Open Society Institute in Cape Town, “I think the question of refugees is the symptom.”
Angola has begun extracting oil in Congolese waters, which has created tension between Rwanda and Kinshasa. Angola, which runs security in the DRC, gave itself a free rein in the Atlantic off the coast of Congo, but now the Congolese parliament has intervened to argue for the ownership of Congolese oil there.
“This has really angered Dos Santos,” says Kabemba. “Dos Santos thinks that he is the godfather of the DRC in terms of security. He was not expecting the Congolese government to react negatively to his entry into Congolese lands or waters.”
He adds that diamond extraction has caused local tension in southern DRC.
“In Kayemba, Congolese have been chased from their villages and that situation was linked to diamond extraction,” he says.
