Never Congo babies. The Congo is too remote and dangerous and has less internet coverage and little international coverage. We rarely see images on our phones of the dead in the Congo. Also, Palestinian doctors & journalists post a lot on X - while very few posts from Congo.

Also, the young are angry our tax dollars are used to kill babies in Gaza - while tax money to the Congo is humanitarian. No US bombs to Congo that I know of.
