OMG! how interesting! i couldn't imagine going to a country like that and seeing the pain and turmoil that the govenment is placing on these people. i always ask myself and should probably research what natural resource is in that country? is it oil, or a resource that is valuable to companies and other countries? i say that because when u see a genocide i think which country is supplying the guns? is it china or a middle eastern country? i'm babbling but its seem to met that war is always about economic business and there is an underlying premise for this genocide.

what made you go there for xmas?
 

Wow... I've known others who have been there and come back changed... for the better? for the worse? Not sure... but changed none the less. Hope it was productive.
