Congo Death Count Called Into Question

Related: The Quietest Holocaust You Never Heard Of

Of course, that also calls into question all the other Holocausts -- including a very special one that seems to stick to 6 million, 'ey?

"Review finds death toll of Congo war overstated" by Peter James Spielmann, Associated Press | January 21, 2010

UNITED NATIONS - The Congo conflict has been dubbed the world’s deadliest since World War II, causing 5.4 million deaths, in a widely cited study.

I actually heard closer to 10, what with the endless killing and all.

But a research group is challenging those figures, saying proper survey techniques would cut the number in half.

Does it really matter? Oh, it was only two million. That's much better, huh?

The figure of 5.4 million deaths since 1998 has become widely used since it was publicized by the International Rescue Committee, a private relief agency. The figures jolted the United States and United Nations into elevating the Congo crisis on their agendas.

The UN Security Council cited the figure in the process of deciding to raise a peacekeeping force for Congo, which has now grown to more than 20,000 troops, the UN’s biggest peacekeeping operation....

Oh, so ONCE AGAIN LIES were told so the GLOBALISTS could be where the RESOURCE GOODIES are, huh?

And DID THAT LARGEST PEACE MISSION ever FAIL, huh?

ARMED BOTH SIDES of MURDERERS, they did!!!

But a new review released yesterday said the statistics are questionable, “dramatically elevating the ‘excess’ death toll’’ - deaths caused by disease, lack of food and medicine, and malnutrition....

First of all, those are STILL CONFLICT RELATED!!!

ALL WAR DEAD in MY EYES!!!

The second thing is HOW GALLING to the BLACK AFRICAN that THEIR HOLOCAUST should be questioned while that other special group slides by with lies.

Hey, if it ain't so bad, go buy a house there.
