Will there ever be peace in the Congo?

Not as long as world suffers from nearly terminal ability to delude itself that what happens to others doesn't have an effect on everyone!

DRC: Militias causing increased havoc in northeast
Attacks on civilians by Ugandan rebels and local militias have left 340,000 people displaced, and 30,000 refugees have fled to Sudan.
Aid workers say 100,000 internally displaced persons (IDPs) are inaccessible due to insecurity in Uélé District.
The joint DRC-Uganda military operation from 14 December 2008 until mid-March 2009 weakened the LRA but did not succeed in neutralizing it. The rebels dispersed in small, highly mobile groups into territory five times bigger than before the operation, according to civil society groups in Ituri.
