So the Italians will send their army to fight rebels in THE Congo?
You think war is all about having "army"?
Do they have the fund to fight a war?

Don't mind the Mumu he thinks cause they're white and media portray them to have advanced warfare Tech means they can beat any African in War either they've got money or not

Leaving surface warfare and using the help of drones to attack. make America con face Nigerian Army ground to ground warfare and let's see if America would not run away. Despite the help of surface warfare America still haven't defeated Talibans in Afghanistan for bout a decade now, Japan fought them to a stand still they had no choice than to nook them Biological to win the war

I can not imagine how his family feels right now seeing remains of their loved one disgraced like this. Not that I care about Italy. Italy itself has bad record in Africa, particular Libya in the 20s and 30s. But this killing is isolated incident.

But unfortunately the missions of these White people in Africa are questionable especially going by recent videos that give viral smut White men speaking ill of Africa and African people.

What is wrong with Africans?
Everything is wrong with Africa, Africa is the creation of the whites, the creation of countries in Africa was created wrongly, different kingdoms were destroyed or lumped together with other kingdoms which were never meant to be together


A second scramble for new nations in Africa must take place for these problems to be solved

That is why there is hardly any stable African country. Europe was like that until they created largely homogeneous countries and the few heterogeneous countries gave ethnic groups greater autonomy.

This is why I fear taking up a humanitarian assignment in the North East. We had engagement with an international NGO for an assignment in Dikwa, Borno, but the fear of any Boko ambush made me to jettison joining the team at the last minute, even though the fees offered by the NGO was quite good.

Humanitarian aid agencies, diplomats and UN field officers are casualties in wars like this. Ambush by rebels fighters are always common in conflict zones.

I did not at anytime say or suggest that the Italian government would send troops to Congo.

My comment was in response to an earlier comment by another person.

Armed group denies killing Italian ambassador in Congo

An armed group in eastern Congo, accused by the government of carrying out an ambush on a United Nations convoy in which Italy's ambassador and two other people were killed, has denied any involvement in the attack.
Congo's interior ministry on Monday blamed a Hutu militia called the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR), which is active near where ambassador Luca Attanasio, 43 and his bodyguard Vittorio Iacovacci, 30, were shot.
World Food Programme driver Mustapha Milambo was also killed, local officials said.
The FDLR was founded by senior Rwandan officers and militiamen who the United Nations and others have said helped orchestrate the 1994 genocide in neighbouring Rwanda. It is one of around 120 armed groups operating in eastern Congo.
"The FDLR declare that they are in no way involved in the attack," the rebel group said in a statement on Tuesday, condemning what it called a "cowardly assassination".
The FDLR kidnapped two British tourists in the same village in May 2018 and held them for several days before freeing them. The surrounding Virunga National Park, which lies along Congo's borders with Rwanda and Uganda and is home to more than half the world's mountain gorillas, then closed for nine months.
Monday's ambush was carried out by six armed men, who stopped the two-car convoy on the road north from North Kivu's provincial capital Goma, Congo's presidency said.
The attackers lead the seven passengers away from the cars after killing one of the drivers.
Army and park rangers tracked the group and a firefight ensued "The kidnappers fired point-blank shots at the bodyguard who died on the spot and at the ambassador, wounding him in the abdomen. The ambassador died of his wounds an hour later at the United Nations peacekeeping hospital in Goma," the presidency said, adding that it was sending a team to investigate.
Pierre Boisselet from the Kivu Security Tracker, a research initiative that maps unrest in the region, said the FDLR could not be ruled out.
"we haven't seen, and the government hasn't shown so far, evidence proving the FDLR's responsibility at this stage," Boisselet said.

Well, Patrice Lumumba would have effectively made Congo peaceful and prosperous but Belgium who is Italy's best friend didnt want that. Belgium murdered him and doused his body inside acid. Now, many foriegn countries and corperation are contributing one way or the other, to the chaos there in order to mine colbat and other precious minerals there, free of control from the Congolese people.
There would be violence and everyone, including white colonisers there, would bear the brunt of the violence. Unfortunately, bullets when out of their muzzle do not know who is black or white.
RIP, Ambassador.

Colonial countries have caused extreme pain in Africa. How do you explain having Somali people in Somalia, Djibouti, Ethopia and Kenya?

How do you explain having Hutu in D.R.Congo, Burundi, Rwanda, Uganda?

What about having Yoruba in Nigeria, Benin republic or Togo?

Hausa in countries like Cameroon, Nigeria and Ghana?

Something has to be done to reduce the pressure Africa's fake borders create.

Someone quoted you and stated that you are very right but actually you are mostly wrong. The borders of Nigeria encapsulate the natural home of the Hausa, Yoruba and Igbo peoples. The Yoruba’s, Hausas and Igbos you find in other African nations not bordering Nigeria are consequences of relatively recent migrations out of Nigeria. Those in bordering nations are the real consequences of Colonial borders, e.g parts of Benin, Niger, Chad and Cameroon bodering Nigeria. Europe is not immune; for instance, Germany claims that parts of France belong naturally to Germany. Alscae and Lorraine, the small land between France and Germany, created conflicts between the two nations. Anyway, the primordial Hausa kingdom although does have a substantial sprawl into Cameroon, the core kingdoms of the Hausa, Yourba and Igbo are in present day Nigeria.

It is and sadly, goes beyond contry-influenced foriegn interest.

Big corporates are now involved. If Congo nationalises its colbat reserves, Apple will see their iPhones, iPad and Macs go up in terms of cost of production as the raw material price goes up. This will affect manufacturing hubs in Silicon Valley and China, share prices, etc.
The "best" solution is to make the raw material readily accessible, by causing internal chaos and paying the mostly child and women miners peanuts.

This is Congo's situation and this situation can be any African country including Nigeria.
