A PETITION FROM THE REFUGEES

I found it in my yahoo address. I have wanted to close this address for a long time, but now I find such interesting things in it that I will delay the closing. Congolese refugees in Rwanda are asking for Nkunda's freedom. We'll talk about them and the way they were treated yesterday later in the day when I finish my job. The weakest, the ones who have suffered most from RDC bad governance, the FDLR exactions, the terrible sadness of exile are the ones who are actually standing by the one who first stood by their cause in DRC, without seeking any adventurous business. It is to be hoped that Kigali will not ignore this call since there are many Congolese residing in the country, and many voters who would be looking to the upcoming election in the prism of how the authorities have handled, are handling and will handle Laurent Nkunda.

The petition is simple, respectful and not agressive:
