We’re ever the British ruled , there is peace , the Belgium were the worst and the French
“If you steal, do not steal too much at a time. You may be arrested. Steal cleverly, little by little.”
Mobutu Sese Seko
Even Vučić knows that rule!
And the insane fact is that Yoweri Museveni helped to topple Mobutu and later Museveni decided to cooperate with ILLEGITIMATE AND HOMOSEXUAL Serbian president Aleksandar Vučić, WHOSE POLICY AND CRIMES ARE SAME AS MOBUTU'S!!! MUSEVENI IS A HYPOCRITE!
what a thief 😧
Those were the rules for the small thieves.
Himself, being the ringleader, was permitted to steal as much as he could
Without limit.
He was a mad man and sadly his madness can still be seen on some of the African leaders
And in Serbia, Vučić is another Mobutu!
Paul biya is like him too
Ruto is like him.
Museveni says hi,
his madness made Congo going awry....the congoleses suffered because of him and with the USA and Westerns countries made in think that he was superpower.
I am Congolese and your acc😢is 98% accurate on Près. Mobutu and Mr Tshisekedi as well as the others évents.
I am almost Phd level in Congolese history, have visited the country...but every time I watch am still intrigued, disturbed and wonder if there's not more than a spiritual jinx to the Congolese debacle, isn't this why half a century later everyone, because of the complexity goes back to Conrad's really 'simplistic' assessment; that whatever happens/whatever spirit runs the Congo, is the heart of darkness? I am almost accepting that the spell binding the Congo in strife is undoable!
Not only Cpngo . That wicked Spirit has its habitat in the Whole of Africa
looking for willing vessels especially African leaders to inhabit.
As a Congolese , I will assure you that Congo is the heart of Darkness.
Nothing is undoable in Jesus' name.
I agree!
You have captured the very essence of what seems to be ailing us! Pure evil darkness! Coz no way a people will go through all these macabre atrocities all these years!
Definitely need a Patrice Lumumba and even a Moïse Tshombe biography. Pierre Mulele was an interesting figure as well, former education minister and Maoist who met a brutal end
Please make a video on Patrice Lumumba, not enough people know his story.
Agreed. Super important African figure.
Absolutely right
Someone who’d be great for a People Profile is Christopher Lee, the actor with an early life just as impressive as his film resumes
He would make (have made) a great, or should I say powerful, narrator as well :-D B-)
@pajfarfar He did sing and narrated heavy metal music for rhapsody of fire and his own album Charlemagne: by the sword and cross and its sequals. Among many others. He also didnt need much help (aside from one move a human couldn't do anyway) with light sabre fighting in star wars as he could actually saber fight. He was in his 80s.
I second this suggestion, a great man he was indeed.
Not too long before he died, he and his daughter got in as passengers in my dad's cab. His daughter had to do all the talking as he was so sick he couldn't speak. Such a shame that my dad had him in his cab but couldn't hear that wonderful voice.
Watching this as A kenyan in 2024😢..
We somehow created a monster like this one. 😔
Mobutu, supported by Belgium and the US... this says it all
What does it say?
@@tomz5704 educate yourself with regard to all unjust and unilateral US wars and [military operations], and who it supported, backed and financed
Haha very true. If you’re somebody that America and Belgium is fond of, you’re a sell out. Belgium made its fortune off of the rubber trade in the Congo.
@@norbertgeorgeExactly brother…you know the truth
Even so he was no good black man...with or without the US and belgium...as the likes of Taylor, Amin, Mugabe and so on.....
Watching this story in this particular turmoil in Kenya makes me see us falling like congo may we be saved
My feeling too
Great to continue learning from you guys.
He was corrupted and the colonial powers collapsed the country by supporting the maladminustration in their interests. The practice has been prevalent in African countries and should be discouraged by dialogs. You are doing a great work by educating us💯🙌🙌
Please do one for Thomas Sankara
Fourt on me
I used to think British was the worst but it’s clear that Belgium, Germany and France were the worst colonist in Africa soil.
Ya
No one was better
Especially the. Germans
He was no more than a traitor to his mother land
His legacy still tears Congo up 😢
Catastrophically so. Very sad indeed
Y'all should write a book. I am sure there will be many buyers.
Congo by David van Reybrouck
@@PulseProductions243 I had in mind them compiling different people profiles in to a book.
Candidat na biso Mobutu.
Love your content guys! Thanks For this 😊😊😊
We have mobutu here in Kenya
A fascinating story of the birth of a nation. On the scale of history, the Congo is a very young country, an assembly of tribal people who were not even aware of the existence of each other when their "country" was being pieced together.
The initiator of this assembling, of this building is none other than the king of the Belgians, Leopold II. He was driven by his desire to create a "Colony", for his kingdom. His success was by no means assured, we now see that it did not, in the long term.
Back in 1897, the English-Canadian doctor, captain of the EIC, (not yet named The Congo) Sydney Landford Hinde, wrote in his book "The Fall of the Congo Arabs", had the Arabs (slave traders) succeeded against Leopold II's efforts, the EIC (l'Etat Independent du Congo) would probably have become a Musulman Empire similar to the Soudanise Khalifat.
A little history that may dampen the condemnations of the different players in the creation of the Republic Democratic of Congo.
You know, I've supported you from day one. I asked long before you had 1.5m followers. To research Micheal Collins, you sent me back a smiley face.
From all your research, it can only lead me to believe that you are only interested in England and all previous colonies of the English. I hope Brexit is treating you well.
Ruto is Mobutu of Kenya, same tactics, same evils
A takeaway from this documentary and many others I've watched, on Africa, is the west must be kicked out of AFRICA.
Watching from Mackinac Island Michigan
This feels like a highly appropriate documentary to come out at the time of our recent and blatantly rigged elections in the RSA...
"Giving cattle herds to people who couldn't tell a bull from a cow" is also such an on point remark for much of the continent.
It seems as though most African countries share the story of the Congo to a greater or lesser extent: Raped, bled and brutalized from both the outside and the inside with equal rapaciousness.
As for Mobutu himself, I suspect he cared for his country with all the depth of love that a narcissistic serial rapist feels for their victims.
Thank you so very much for this enlightening documentary
The Franco Luambo song about him is 🔥 Mobutu Se-se Se-ko!
It's very interesting that trauma fuels this type of bad guy
My new favourite channel ❤
Ruto Must GO!
😂😂😂 acha hizo
@@jefftone Huoni tabia zinafanana 😂😂
USA and Belgium, so wicked
enlightening documentary
Kenyans need to stop Ruto early enough.... otherwise
We shall overcome 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

@ Is it let me check
Bruh
He brought his old school teachers to his yacht to flex his flawless reports 😂
Very inciteful
European government's loved him so to America. Ends up in Morocco a Muslim country as no Christian nation took him in.
Just desserts. Or should I say just desert? 😀
@@shahidabdoullakhanzorovr1564a nice cheesecake will do
Extremely sad how the people of DRC remain poor yet their country is considered to be one of the richest in the globe in terms of natural resources. It's very painful to imagine how the women, children and people with disability manage to survive in DRC. Sad!
The correct title for this documentary should be "The Plunder of Congo by Western Powers!"
Wow so informative 👏
The Congo was better off with Patrice
Lumumba. Now look at it, a mess
No with Lumumba Congo was chaotic and in civil war beacause of Lumumba and Kas-Vubu.
Lumumba was not given the chance to lead.....he was attacked from every corner
Mobutu oyeee
Mubowas a man of the people😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Good video.
He was a self serving opportunist and a dishonest coward without a backbone or vision and principle of his own.. He was the type to sell his mother if it serves his personal interest.. I hate the way he backstabbed Lamumba😢
Mobutu is like the rich fool in the bible Luke 12:20. He gathered much but left empty and in the end became a fool.
Paul Kagame has transformed Rwanda from the ashes of genocide into a beacon of progress, with unmatched economic growth, gender equality, and infrastructural advancements. His leadership has brought peace, stability, and hope to millions, making Rwanda a model for development in Africa. Criticism of his human rights record overlooks these extraordinary achievements. ESPN should be ashamed of producing such a misguided and unbalanced portrayal.
Rwanda is doing great, an envy of East African countries. But At what cost... Congo, bitter sweet. Catch 22 situation
Sese seko kuku Ngbedu waza Banga 😂
So many names for just one man
Actually, ,,Mobutu Sese Seko Kuku Ngbendu Wa Zabanga" is a one name, ,,The All-powerful warrior who goes from conquest to conquest, leaving fire on his path"! The name says it all!
'Free Independent Congo'...'I don't think that means what you think it means.' -Inigo Montoya.
Being it Mobutu, Compaore and many more in the 20th century or Israel and Saudi Arabia today international law violations or human right abuses really don't matter so long as you're considered an ally of the US or the global West as a whole.
Belgium, the US and the UN General Secretary at the time are guilty of facilitating and being involved in the atrocities conducted by sese seko.
Jean Bedel Bokassa will be next, right?
Mobutu the man who smiled at the arrest of patrice Lumumba.he was green snake in green grasss for the people of congo
When insane people have power its terrifying
Almighty Nature doesn't forget and does not forgive. 💔💔😡
Reminds of the playbook used by of one of our current day “leaders”….
The problem with us black people is that we believe everything white people say about our black leaders.we are easily manipulated.we must see good things in our leaders
Explain yourself… Should white people believe what Hitler Stalin and Putin want then? Stupid
The man who will double cross for Western colonial ways
The Belgian colonial regime was NOT a continuation of Leopold II. Many Congolese look back at it as a normal part of their history, the times where there was peace and security, roads, railroads, hospitals, education… and humiliation too. There was never a war of liberation against the Belgians, no guerilla, no rebels… experts thought the orderly decolonisation would take 30 years. All of a sudden, after a few riots, the Belgians departed and left the country steerless, in the hands of quarreling, unexperienced politicians like Kasa-Vubu, and Lumumba (who bore a hatred to the West). Mobutu seized power thanks to Lumumba’s clumsy turn towards Russia. He ruined the country. Since then, the Congolese have only their eyes to cry. M23, Interahamwe, Hutu militias, gang violence in Kinshasa, … if only the Belgians would come back…
11:20
Mobutu was a product of the Imperialist age that restored Africa and African countries before during and long after their formation. There is no excuse for his actions but he was clearly influenced and created by a flawed system and an example of self interest by the more “civilized” European and American countries.
They say it was the belgians' fault, but yet they fare no better today on their own.
Make one on Ruto
Self interest-He had good intentions to start with but self interest seton when he needed winning back the trust of the people-
Tragically the congo has never known peace till this day
But is drc better today??
He was an animal
Not sure if all was true. This clearly depicts him as a Gillian when he reality, he remained in power for a very long time. Like most African leaders, he did more for his family and friends than for the country. However, he must have did some good
I heard that his son was a day scholar in France, travelling from DRC.
not a day scholar.
The united states, Belgian governments are to blame for the suffering of the people of Congo
Mobutu was not an angel but the narratives try so much to make him seem so bloodthirsty and using private foibles to miscarry his struggles. He was not an Amin or Bokassa. Ever since his departure, Congo is in turmoil
😢😢😢😢😢
msaliti
Those sellouts against PATRICE LUMUMMBA sold us all out
Mobutu Président na biso 🐆
Après avoir vu cette vidéo regarde ce que vous êtes en train de dire😂 🤣🤦🏾♂️
Lisala
“Advances of communism?” They were fighting for Congo’s resources
Mobutu was an African version of what trump will become
Kenyan captain come here.
Okay... I see
Why does this sound like modern day Kenya!
Ali Bomaye!
I hope he dosen't rest in peace.... he single handedly killed the Congo
Seems he was driven by self interest but it would be interesting to hear opposing opinion
mobutu never Cleanse ethnic Congolese Tusties ....he was very sick and retired ... if Mobutu a well non of these war would have taken place..
He was definitely driven only by self interest, as are the great majority of politicians.
What an utter monster that guy was, he probably killed 20 million
He never killed his people but Protected Zaïrian People beter than nobody since the creation of that land in Berlin in years1885
@@bonalandu1341 He did what was essentially an ethnic cleansing on my tribe (muluba) how is that considered "Protecting" the people
@bonalandu1341 what are u talking about withought Mobutu the Congo would have been great
Mobutu killed that country
I hope the children of Mobutu never becomes a president or ministries of DRC angain!!
All I will say Mr. X warning /advice is proven again. Smh
Wow he said sardonic. Thank you! Lol
Very evil man who was lucky not to suffer the consequences of his evil atrocities
he had dark triad traits
You narrated Mobutu like he was worse than Leopold II... kind of crazy.
I agree with you totally, they also didn't want to point out that Western Governments supported Mubutu so that yhey root Zaira's resources, its the most richest country on the planet in terms of minerals and resources and they are still rooting it to this day!
White agenda
Do sir Seretse Khama interracial marriage
