Israel to send experts to Congo

Israel to send experts to Congo



Aug. 7, 2002

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.

Well Duh! Like I said, calm down - you're looking pretty stipud now. Larry will, at his leisure - respond.

Take a hike pest. I posted that LL lied (my post #120) but I never dogged him on it. You are the one who brought it up. Was a non issue until you butted in.

You've been here four years?  I count a little less than two months.

And I don't have to prove anything about LarryLied--and Voegelin at LF.  He is an antisemite, a very left-leaning one.  He loves Cynthia McKinney and almost former congressman Earl Hilliard.  He hates Jews.  Simple as that.  And you're Jewish?  Riiiight.

But your defense of him is amusing.  Keep it up and your stay here will be short.

The so-called Patriot has been here a month yet seems to know all the posters here. I smell a banned poster/disruptor, and SPAM on rye.

Hey Kudzu, when are you going to stop adding those stupid little numbers to your nicks? For that matter, when are you going out in the sand and digging yourself a hole? Never know when you might need a fallout shelter over there, you know ;).

Now, give us a little lecture about water rights :))).

Quite correct. And where this little sandflea (known under such nicks as Astonished,Sawgrass,Kudzu Flat, Glassheart3 and others) tells everyone she grew up outside of Riyadh.

She never wants to talk about what they used the camels for, though, or why the Saudis seem unable to actually produce anything but Camel-pies.

*Scratch, you haven't been around long enough to pick your nose in the restroom.

What a disgusting post. Manners and breeding are not your strong suit.

What do you expect from the very frequently banned Kuzdu. She did have a happy home over at LF, but she figured her good buddy, LL/Voegelin, needed a synchopant at FR.
