Things Bad in Congo

In the Congo, a demented Christian cult called the Lord's Resistance Army has been kidnapping children and forcing them to commit acts of genocide, often against members of their own family, so they will be too ashamed to leave the group or return to their families.  The young woman with the hacked-off lips and stitches where one ear used to be shakes her head when asked why rebels did this to her, then whispers that the attackers who came from across the river were angry because she kept crying for mercy and calling on God for help.
