Authorities in Benin assembled the children, none older than 15, in a soccer stadium, preparing them for return to their families.

Quote:

The children's parents had put them in the hands of labor traffickers for as little as $35, said Philippe Duamelle, an official with the U.N. Children's Fund in Cotonou.

so... the parents sold them off.... the UN rescues them, and sends them BACK to their parents? what the fuck??

well, dawgy, that's the same u.n. that first told bush they would not support his war and now are giving him money to continue it.

maybe the u.n. is no longer exactly making sense. too bad for those poor kids - now their parents can sell them again :-(

the un is worthless. A good example is rwhanda where an estimated 800,000 were killed.

I was watching a great documentary on hbo called 'child soldiers', was pretty disturbing. A kid about 14 years old in africa saying how when they capture a pregnant girl they make bets of what the kids gender is, then slice open the woman and see.

Africa is a completely corrupt continent. Tons of civil wars and the money from diamonds and stuff that could be used to build the country are spent buying ak47s.
