Wow!!! This story is very shocking and pessimistic. It is called " orphan, Raped and Ignore" .It is very scary to be in the shoes of the victims that are suffering from a horrific experience. Chance for instance,is a nine year old girl that had to watch her parents murdered from Hutu Militias right in front of her. She was so scared that she ran for her life but the soldiers ceased her two young sisters that were never heard of again.But this wasn't the only shoddier and lasting memory that will haunt her. When she moved into her aunt and uncle's house with their two daughter. The Hutu Militias two moth later invaded their house. This is very nerve reckoning because chance and her family had experience sickening things that will always be with them. She had a visual image of the exact soldiers that brutally killed her parents. They then killed her uncle by slashing his stomach so his guts are hanging out. Next they raped her and her aunt, afterward they abduct Chance's cousin.
Here is the reason why this happened. It all started off in Dr Congo ( valuable place that had a lot of gold, diamond, and wealth)when it was taken over by Mobutu who renamed Dr Congo to Zaire. He then caused Zaire to go through a down fall in which the genocide the neighbors of Rwanda hastened and plunged Dr Congo into the deadliest conflict in African History. This affect Dr Congo so badly because according to the text " After the Rwandan's genocidal the Hutu regime was overthrow, more than two million Hutus are thought to have fled into Dr Congo fearing reprisals against them by the new, Tutsi-dominated government." They got along but there was an outbreak between Rwandan and Kinshasa governments. Tutsi warlord gen Laurent had campaigned to destroy the Hutus rebel from the Democratic forces for the liberation of Rwanda. It caused a war for power and money because he accused the government from backing the FDLR. Soldiers from the Hutus and Tutsi are doing whatever they feel like to peole since the government is focused on itself. The soldiers would brutally rape,kill, and threaten innocent people.
