The Real Mobile Phone Wars - DRC

||
10 October 2001As the high tech age takes over more and more of our lives manufacturers will go to any lengths to get the sometimes scarce minerals that go into them. Tantalum is one such rare ingredient. Few of us know that in the middle of Africa much human suffering is created in the pursuit of it.

This video is awesome!So comlex!Concentrating on exploitation by the Western World,there is another interesting subject is lying beneath, which is'HUMAN RIGHTS ISSUES'especially whereabout CHILDREN are being exploited. I've heard so many other Countries are using child labour as well. How on earth it can happen at all!??I think there should be no excuses whatsoever by any Government to allow anything like that to happen. I want to see evidence that Human Rights are being practiced in these...

Trent079...interesting you make this point....In Canada, Brazil, USA, Australia...the land was taken by force, deceit and occupation, the societies that existed there were decimated by war and disease...in many cases, this was done for valuable minerals and other natural resources... hope you remember that aspect of the story...

All this so that some fatasses in Europe and the States can sell cellphones. I will dump mine as soon as the contract is up. This all sucks. Economic Hit Men from the U.S. and Europe sitting back in the background like the bloodsuckers they are.

Wait till clean water becomes rare ;)...see if country's wont start fighting for the control of the source.We usually ignore those details cause we the people of the 20,21 century always had everything...but when famine and need kicks in,"humanity" and "civilization" is usually trow over board.I hope we realize the importance of not wasting and over consuming soon...cause we will be the first ones to die cause of our spoiled lifestyle.
