WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Department of State today expressed shock after reports of rape and other atrocities possibly committed by United Nations peacekeepers.

A State Department spokesman said Saturday that “the United States is profoundly shocked and dismayed by allegations and incidents of serious misconduct by UN peacekeepers serving in the UN Multidimensional Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (MINUSCA). The most recent of those allegations includes rape and civilian casualties during an arrest operation in early August.”

The spokesman said the allegations “raise serious concerns about the mission’s discipline and command” and called for an immediate and thorough investigation.

Once again its all about LVS and his stupid comments. Every story every day. There is more banter back and forth about LVS than conversation about the article. How sad that he is always the story line.

@Observer-That is because there are two Troll that do nothing but follow me around and snipe at everything I say. That forces me to fight back and I do. One of them is the Anonymous TROLL that snipes at NIT all the time as well and the other one thinks he is cute by using different names. Both are internet cowards and I refuse to back down to two sissy’s like that. One was banned for a time and I believe he will be again real soon. Like everyone else on here I am entitled to my opinion and if they don’t like it maybe they should change because I won’t.

Observer- sorry about that, it’s probably my fault. I was just trying to get LVS to change his ways and think about what he posts sometime. I should’ve not a made an article as tragic as this about LVS. Just thought he might take some good advice is all but I was wrong.

Relax…. its all good. Im glad you called LVS out but his name calling will just continue. My comment was directed toward his outlandish posts and his attempts to take over this site. BTW Im a Republican too.

@Observer-they are only outlandish to you. To me they are the truth and I am sorry you can’t see that. I am not trying to take over anything and I really thought you were smarter than that. Looks like I was wrong on that one. Leave me alone and I will leave you alone. Attack me and all bets are off. In other words, keep your mouth off me.

“If you do not like what I post don’t read it.”

Hypocrite.

Isn’t this a shame that the people who are supposed to be protecting the innocents are the ones taking advantage of them. Must be Democrats.

LVS-From one republican to another. Just some friendly advise-Please stop blaming the Democrats for everything. When you blame something this tragic on someone and say it’s because they are a democrat you just make us republicans look like fools. Thanks for your consideration

I am not a Republican and I will blame anyone I want.

OMG-Not a republican!! You are so far to the right you’re not even in the ball park. Not a republican, you crack me up!

LVS-Ok so you’re not a republican, you still make republicans, and yourself, look like fools when you make comments like that.

If I cared one bit about your crybaby whiney, opinion I would be hurt. But, because your opinion doesn’t mean squat to me I don’t. You piss and moan just like a Democrat so you must be a RINO. He is one for you, Democrats are brave enough to kill a unborn baby but not brave enough to kill America’s enemy’s.

LVS- I am not a crybaby or a whiner at all, I agree with you about the democrats. Just saying with your attitude and demeanor you have no credibility and you give republicans a bad name, not to mention you make yourself out to be a fool. You make some good points then you flush them all down the toilet by acting immature and juvenile. I can see why no-one takes you seriously.

@Fellow-It is none of your business what I do or do not do. If you do not like what I post don’t read it. I really do not care what your opinion is and I am way past the time when I will listen to a teacher.

LVS-Did you hear that? Flush gurgle gurgle That was your credibility being flushed down the toilet! That too bad too, a guy of your age and wisdom could have a lot to add if you were not so immature. Kind of sad when you think about it.

@Fellow-Real cute. And, you call yourself a grown up but still post something like that. Your credibility just went down the drain. If you want discussion that is fine. Don’t attack me and I won’t attack you. That is pretty simple. If you look at the comments you will see I wasn’t the one who started the attacks. But, I will always finish them.

Just for the record I am just as fed up with the Republicans for all their lies and lack of action

LVS-you are correct, my comments were out of line. I apologize for that.

Sycophant

Flush gurgle gurgle, that is funny…..and true!

Does this really surprise anyone? If Trump is not our next president the working class in this country will not survive – and as working class I do not include public servants – illeagals and elected lieing crooked lobbyist money rich politicans..

All the democrats have left anymore is lies, keep spreading the word.
