Subject: Take action: End Human Rights Abuses in the Congo 


Dear Abdoulie A.,
We need your help to urge the Presidents of Rwanda, Uganda and 
Zimbabwe, to take steps to end human rights abuses in the Democratic 
Republic of Congo (DRC).  The war there has lead to some two and a 
half to three million deaths.  Amnesty International has documented 
large-scale human rights abuses, including acts of torture, sexual 
violence, unlawful killings and illegal detentions.  The Rwandan, 
Ugandan and Zimbabwean governments and their rebel counterparts in 
the DRC have perpetrated the abuses, often as a means to secure and 
exploit vast natural resources in the country.

Please urge the governments of Rwanda, Uganda, and Zimbabwe to 
respect human rights by contacting:
