Lee,
 
LL>WD>My people did not invade the Congo.
 
LL> From 1908 to 1960 your people claimed they OWNED the Congo,
LL> and RULED the land (and its people) with an iron fist.
 
Untrue.
 
In the 2nd part of the 1800's several countries wanted the Congo as its colony
... Germany, France, England, the USA, ... none trusted the other.
 
So the Belgian king Leopold-II created a company to "care for the needs" of
Congo Free State. At the 1884-1885 Berlin conference of colonial nations
Leopold unfolded his plan to "educate" and "evangilise" the blacks of the
Congo. Nobody trusted him, but they trusted the others even less. So Leopold
could go ahead.
 
The Congo then did not belong to Belgium, it was the "private property" of
Leopold with the blessing of England, France, Germany, USA, Italy, ... He
behaved as he pleased. He extracted a personal furtune from that country and
set-up a private militia, a private army, outside parliamentary control, to
whack the blacks.
 
He made his fortune with rubber. When synthetic rubber hit the market his
business began slipping and on his deathbed in 1909 he willed the Congo to
Belgium.
 
After that, and only then, did the country of Belgium become involved. The
private armies of Leopold murdered some 8 million blacks and up to this day
this is "something you do not talk about".
 
When Belgium became in charge, the living conditions of the blacks started to
improve dramatically. Missionaries came and rather than spreading the ghospel
they became social workers. There was continuous improvement until 1960 when
the country gained its independance, too soon, under influence of mainly the
USA being very interested in the uranium, copper and bauxite deposits.
 
LL> If Adolf Eichmann received a fair trial as you claim, then why
LL> is it that the Jews refuse to release full uncensored transcripts
LL> of Eichmann's diaries?
 
What diaries?
 
When the Mossad plucked him off the street he had no diary and in captivity he
was not allowed to have one.
 
LL> In fact, Adolf Hitler had asked the world to take in Germany's Jews,
LL> as Germany had no room for them or any desire to keep them.  However,
LL> the world refused Hitler's request and turned Jews away.  There was
LL> even a boatload full of Jews that was refused anchor in the USA, the
LL> boat having no place else to go but to unload those Jewish passengers
LL> to death camps in Europe.
 
That was the St.Louis. It docked in Antwerp (Belgium) and its passengers
dispersed all over Europe, they were not unloaded in deathcamps. For years I
have aided the USHMM in DC to track the ways of how these people moved around
after debarkation.
 
LL>WD>I raise the glass to a country with balls ...
 
LL> There is nothing honorable in murdering a man in cold blood.
LL> Even if that man is the most evil person in the world.
 
Osama Bin Laden was murdered in cold blood. Eichmann had a trial ... on TV ...
he had free speech from the confines of his cell. He failed to convince the
judges.
 
LL>WD>just as the Entebbe rescue.
 
LL> Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wishes it never would
LL> have happened.  Do you know why?  There was one Jewish casualty in
LL> that illegal action.  One KIA.  Netanyahu's brother.  May he rest
LL> in peace.
 
Which is why they called it "Operation Jonathan" afterwards. I know all about
that ... people with balls!
