In the DRC, there has been a civil war between the rebels and the state. The rebel leader Bosco Ntaganda was accused of raping and massacring citizens of the Congo. He claims, though, that he is a rebel, not a criminal. One child who was only 13 years old claimed that being pregnant with one of the senior commanders children was preferable and “a relief” compared to her life before.
Personally, I believe he is guilty. Everybody thinks what they are doing is good in their own way. Hitler thought he was doing the right thing by attempted to exterminate all Jews. This man is guilty for having child sex slaves, sex slaves at all, and massacre.
Rape as a weapon of war has been an ongoing problem in the DRC (they are not the only country to do this, nor is this era the first in history...this awful practice goes back centuries). I found the young girl's comment to be of interest...why do you think she, at 13, said being pregnant to a senior commander was better than her life before?
