Tragedy in Congo

I can not fully explain how I feel after watching this video clip. I cried my eyes out the entire time I was watching it. It is terrifying that this is going on in the year 2009. I feel powerless and sad. I can't believe the tragedies these women have faced. And who are these "people" doing this to them? What is wrong with them? How did they become so hateful and violent? The have no shame and no heart. I can't believe they could do these things to children so young! I have intentionally blocked out that part of the video. I can't think about these horrible things happening to children while I'm here not being able to do anything about it. I feel terrible about every time that I've complained about my a/c not working, or the heavy traffic leaving Lahaina. I can't believe I've complained about such petty things while there is real horror happening to innocent people all over the world.
