Israel has pledged to send a delegation of agricultural and industrial experts to the Democratic Republic of the Congo to assess the war-torn African country's needs and explore how Israel can help it rebuild, Israeli officials said yesterday. Foreign Minister Shimon Peres made the pledge during a meeting in Jerusalem yesterday with Congolese Foreign Minister Leonard She Okitundu. Peres briefed Okitundu on the nascent Israeli-Palestinian security contacts. He said there is no justification for Palestinian terror and that Israel does not lack a peace plan, but rather a peace partner. Peres also stressed the need to provide a "political horizon" to the Palestinians and to improve the humanitarian situation in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Okitundu explained how Rwanda and Congo reached a peace agreement last month aimed at ending a devastating war in which up to two million people have died. Israel's offer came a day after the World Bank approved more than $450 million in aid for Congo. Israel has in the past provided military aid and training to various African forces and commando units, including units of the army of Zaire, as Congo was previously known. |
By the way, do you know Mr. Lied thinks The GOP is the stupid party? So consider the source. 
Maybe they just want to have fun?
Congo Bongo!!!!
Anglogate? What the hell has Laura been doing with the British? I haven't heard of this!
Many conservatives were not pleased with Bush leaving Jonas Savimbi in Angola out to hang. We did support UNITA but maybe he and it was a lost cause.
Like I said to LarryLied in another forum, how would you like it if somebody made these kind of accusations against you in an open Internet forum and then refused to back it up with direct evidence?
If you want to call Mr. Leviev a "scumbag" person to person, Freepmail me with your real name, email, address and phone number. Otherwise your comments are nothing more than the ramblings of a crackpot.
Where do you come up with such trash? Leviev's companies operate outside the United States. I doubt he contributes one thin dime to the Democrat party. I also doubt you are Jewish.
Sure ......... And you just registered here a month ago and you also claim you Jewish. So what else is new and exciting?
Try your online BS on someone else. Larry has responded to my other posts while ignoring that one. Or he may not have seen it. Point is I called him a liar for posting this whopper:
Post #117 One thing we do know, Israel's offer to send "agricultural and industrial experts to the Democratic Republic of the Congo" has nothing to do with anything but helping Israel and looting the Congo of even more wealth.
