Ross travels to the Democratic Republic of Congo where he learns more about the 10 year old war between the Congolese and Hutu militia.
Watched Ross Kemp Doco last night on the TV only to notice at the end it was filmed in 2010
I am overwhelmed by the info where do we start to help and I didn’t know that the technology we so freely use is a main cause of this internal war due to the (ownership) minerals needed to produce them. What’s going on now … Info found on Google … It doesn’t look like anything has changed in four years since this documentary/film was made. Hoping the UN can stay on and help … Guidance is needed.

Ross Kemp I aplod your heroics about where you go but this is all….your veiwers can tell you are searching for the bull shit. Sometimes I can understand, it may be there and you are on the side of justice but most of the time, from what I have seen you are on the wrong side and it looks like you are trying to get some kind of accreditation. I do not wish you well although I do wish the next person behind you tremedeous sucess.

Fistula – the doctor said fistula Mr Kemp, but you didn’t understand. It is when a woman is so badly mutilated from rape that she leaks urine and/or faeces. She has no control. That’s why these women have been rejected by their families. There is a fistula foundation that assists these women, but it need funds. This could have been an opportunity to promote it …
Hi Lisa
Do you know what the fistula foundation is? I’d like to support it and would love the details please

I have just watched this horrific programme and was left devistated that the human race can be capable of such inhuman activity. My first reaction was that they should be blasted off the face of the earth. However whilst it can never be understood or condoned what we should look at is who is too blame. This is a rich country with much wealth with poor uneducated people who are brainwashed, used and abused both by their own and also by the manipulators who lead them for their own gain who are also manipulated and brainwashed and so it goes on. Once this happens it dehuminises people and they do the same to others – the depravity is shocking. The west is benefiting from the Congos wealth for a pittance and consumers are unwittingly supporting this policy. It is not the first time that America has supported a political party for its own end. The Ali fight – rumble in the jungle was held with a prison built underneath the areana filled with political prisionors who actually had no understanding what they were really fighting for and who were the long term winners – it certainly was not the people of Manila. Ali thought he was fighting for the people of Afica and wa another victim – a humanitarian who was coerced and manipulated. Money corrupts it means far more than humanity and decency and it stinks.
However how many of of us in the west have stopped using a remote control or cancelled our mobile phone contract – I bet none (including me) because we know the effect would be minimal in the global areana but would be disruptive to our own lives. What we do need is governments who effect change for the better of people all over the world rather than proctecting the rich economies.
The more I hear the less I sleep at night. Ross Kemp you are a brave man who is doing his best to expose corruption and humanity throughout the world. God only knows the personal price you pay – knowing it will continue even though you bring it into the public domain knowing that actually nothing changes.
go on http://vimeo.com/22049750 for part 1
dont even try and watch this shit. (not the doc the video software is shit) peace out
this looks like an amazing documentary but the player is proving wearisome. stop, start, stop , start. useless
why we can not access the video???
maybe not the most insitefull view ever but in my opinion i myself chose not to work for a living and therefore struggle to be able to afford a great many of the luxurys that nearly everyone takes for granted these days. I do this for too reasons 1 being that my own family was cut apart by big buisness. The second being the horrific seens that go on in these poor impoverished contries. If only the world wasnt about money pain drugs rape and murder then we may have a chance…… as if
So we invade Iraq and Afghanistan to help impose “democracy”, stop human rights issues and prevent “terrorism”. Since it has been discovered that much of the insurgency is a result of the invasion rather than the cause. Meanwhile this is going on and it is not even covered in the news let alone acted on.
WHY ISN’T THIS ON THE OPRAH WINFREY SHOW OR MAINSTREAM NEWS DAILY? WHY IS THE MAINSTREAM NEWS COVERING HOLLYWOOD HEDONISM AND NOT THESE ISSUES? I GUESS BECAUSE THEY ARE ASHAMED TO ADVERTISE SOMETHING THAT MAY BE PERPETUATED BY THEIR FINANCIAL INVESTORS.I INTUITIVELY NEW SOMETHING WAS NOT RIGHT ABOUT THE USE OF TECHNOLOGY. I NEVER WANTED OR WAS EXCITED BY IT, BUT SOCIETY FORCES YOU TO USE IT FOR JOBS AND EDUCATION. OF COURSE, UNLESS YOU DIG YOU DON’T FIND OUT THAT WE ALL HAVE BLOOD ON OUR HANDS THROUGH IT’S USE.
IT’S DISGUSTING THAT THESE MULTINATIONAL COMPANIES ( OWNED BY THE ELITE AND RICH OF COURSE, WHO ELSE CAN AFFORD TO INVEST) GO INTO THESE COUNTRIES PAY THESE PEOPLE BARELY NOTHING SO THAT THESE PEOPLE FIGHT EACH OTHER LIKE THIS. THERE IS ENOUGH “COOKIES” FOR EVERYONE. IT’S A PLOY TO HAVE BROTHERS AND SISTERS FIGHT. GIVE EACH TRIBE EQUAL RIGHTS TO THE RESOURCES AND PAY THE PEOPLE EQUITABLY. THIS SITUATION REMINDS ME OF THE BIBLE STORY WHERE SATAN APPROACHES JESUS AND TEMPTS HIM BY SAYING, “I’LL GIVE YOU ALL OF THIS, (MEANING THE WORLD) IF YOU JOIN ME”. THEN JESUS OF COURSE, DENIES SATAN. BY THIS SITUATION ALONE WE KNOW THOSE PEOPLE THAT CONTROL THE WORLD’S ECONOMY, POLITICS AND BANKING SYSTEMS ARE CAUSING BROTHER AND SISTER PEOPLES TO KILL EACH OTHER. IN THE BIBLE IT SAYS “A HOUSE DIVIDED WILL FALL”.THESE MULTINATIONALS ARE SATANS PEOPLE, THEY KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THERE DOING,IT’S NO ACCIDENT. THESE ARE THE SAME PEOPLE THAT ARE INSTRUMENTAL IN FUNDING ALL WARS. WHO ELSE COULD AFFORD TO FUND A WAR BESIDES THE SUPER RICH. SATANS SYNAGOGUE WILL NOT BE HAPPY UNLESS HE DESTROYS THE DESCENDANTS OF ADAM AND EVE WHO HE HATED VEHEMENTLY BECAUSE GOD CREATED THE EARTH FOR THEM AND SATAN WAS SO JEALOUS. IF THERE WERE GOOD PEOPLE RUNNING THESE COMPANIES THE PEOPLE WOULD PULL OUT OF THESE COUNTRIES AND NOT EVEN DEAL WITH THESE COUNTRIES UNLESS THEY WOULD UNITE AND SHARE THE WEALTH EQUITABLY. I BECOME SO ENRAGED, I CAN HARDLY WAIT FOR JESUS AND THE ANGELS TO COME DOWN AND DESTROY EVIL,AND THAT MAY EVEN INCLUDE ME(BECAUSE EVERYONE HAS EVIL IN THEM), I DON’T CARE. I WANT SITUATIONS LIKE THIS TO STOP. AMEN
This is Ross Kemp’s most hard hitting series to date..OUTSTANDING and very, very brave of Ross and his crew. Again Simply Outstanding reporting. This is wake up world, this is HELL on Earth….Fuck!!!!!
Simply Horrific. It just goes to show how the USA, Europe and Britain choose their conflicts.
WHY ARE THEY NOT DOING ANYTHING HERE…Of course, we know why!
video not found
what to do?
only rather foolish phantasies of sheer violence, torture and more extreme violence in my stupid little head against these men who commited these unimaginible, horrific and violent acts against these women, children and men.
ashamed of being from europe, “thee” democratic super-state, with all it’s laws, equal rights and so on…its people high on artificial objects, showing off their latest phone or whatever, not caring at all how we got them, how these things were made, how many lives were lost in the process….it is just so sickening. as the man at the end of this doc says, how it would be sad if this would be the case, that it’s because it is black africa and not a country in europe….
…but that is how it is. that is the truth.
africa is nothing more than a lab, an experimental ground for big companies and armies from the usa and europe.
a life there doesn’t count nearly as much as the life of an american(north) or european. it comes to mind the story about this aids med, which african doctors demanded to get the patent for, in order to produce it in large quantities so they could help their fellow people. and it was denied by big pharma and bush, but when the anthrax attacks happened(btw not from islamic terrorists!!!) and 5 people(united states people) and there was this one type of drug from bayer, bush and big pharma demanded the patent from them in order to help their fellow americans….can you guess how it ended?
5 u.s. american lives are worth more to the bringers of democracy and freedom and love and happiness than 1000000 african lives.
so, i am sorry to say this, but IT IS because it is black africa, that the rest of the world don’t give a shit.
maybe all this technology, all this wealth, etc has distanced us so far from our true humanity, that _____________
