Three Americans Accused of Trying to Overthrow Congo President Sentenced to Death – Biden-Harris State Department Issues Weak Statement
Gateway Pundit ^ | 9/14/24 | Christina Laila

Three Americans who were tortured into confessing they tried to overthrow the president of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) have been sentenced to death.

If the Biden Regime doesn’t step in and negotiate on behalf of the three American men, they will be executed by firing squad.

The US Government has not declared the three American men were wrongfully detained by the DRC’s government so US official won’t likely negotiate their release.

A Congolese military court on Friday sentenced three American men – Tyler Thompson, 21, Marcel Malanga, 21, Benjamin Reuben Zalman-Polun, 35 – to death for an attempted coup.

I guess the White guy thought he could ‘blend-in’ there.

So I agree, Darwin at work.

The democrats don’t care when it’s white American citizens.

It saves them the trouble of killing them off themselves.

Why would USA get involved when they actually did participate in a raid on the palace in a real coup attempt the father of one of the accused is the mastermind of the raid. They are guilt, don’t do the crime of you can’t do the time. This is not a matter for the state dept to get into.

They’ll probably be sprung after the right palms are greased. The old Africa hand Al Venter has written about how Zaire, when ruled by Diamond Joe Mobutu, was notorious for requiring bribes to get anything done, and it’s a safe bet that nothing has changed.

Did any country intervene on behalf of (Mad) Mike Hoare when he and his group of mercs tried to grab power in the Seychelles, were caught, and Mike sentenced to 20 years prison time? Later reduced to 10, I believe.

Sounds a mission -- impossible. And after the tape cassette was played, it burst into flames.

Let's hear it for plausible deniability.

Africa don’t play you try to overthrow a African gov you better win they get creative in their death sentences there.These morons followed the son of the warlord leader to the DRC to participate in the raid. It’s not like they just posted stuff on social media and got the death sentence for it. They went with 50 other armed people and attacked the palace in a gun fight yeah your gonna swing for that FAFO.

I would expect the pro-abortion, pro-euthanasia crowd to be for anyone’s death. But their own.

I almost wrote Idi Amin a letter and regret I didn’t, he was an incredible rampaging, raping, cannibalistic terror and I wanted to see if he would send me a set of British Jump Wings since he wore them, I was going to share the paratroop story with him and figured he would do it.

The Congo roots of the MSNBC TV “star” Joy Reid.
Born Joy Ann Lomena.

“My parents were from what Trump calls ‘s&#@hole countries” - Joy Reid, January 11, 2018.

Joy Reid’s father is from the Congo and her mother from Guyana. Both were in college in the US where they met at the University of Iowa. Her father was mostly absent and her mother eventually divorced him. Her mother died of breast cancer and her aunt raised her.

She has no roots as a descendent of enslaved people in this country and but still refers to herself as “a descendant of American slavery.”

She also had said that she “literally, physically built this country.” and thus is owed reparations money.

That is why I regret putting it off and not getting around to it, it was easy, didn’t cost anything, and I would have had a visual item to trigger the story telling, the guy was a real monster but colorful and I liked telling people about him at the time.

Amin would actually load up a few truck loads of his loyal troops and go rampaging among his own people, raiding their villages and raping and violently partying just for the heck of it.
