After months of gathering data on the rape of Akha women by ACF workers in Laos, we note very carefully the langauge used in an ACF press release where THEIR people are the VICTIMS.

We didn’t get much cooperation from ACF, they said it was all bunk, that no one raped any Akha girls, they did, but they didn’t do it THAT much, and so it may as well not have happened at all, even if they DID know about it, and didn’t stop it.
But now when their staff are killed, lord knows what they were doing on the side, suddenly the nouns and verbs change. Its a WAR CRIME (raping girls in the course of humanitarian aid is not of course). It is violation of SACRED aid workers. Ones just back from rape missions in rape camps maybe.
Funny how the shoes look on the other foot.
We wonder what would have happened to the ACF workers in Laos had the Akha girls all had f’n guns.
What goes around, comes around.
