Anyways, Lumumba was assassinated and the DRC has been in turmoil and violence ever since. Many times more people died in Africa so that the US could get uranium for the bombs, than died in Japan when the bombs were dropped.
5.4 million people died in the Congo, because Patrice Lumumba was assassinated, because he asked the US for help in a way that made the US feel that if they didn't help, he would sell his uranium to the Soviets. And the US had no intention of helping.
