the congo holds no strategic worth as far as global politics is concerned at this moment. as long as they are busy killing eachother and aren't bothering anything else, they aren't a threat to the balance of power as far as the global superpowers are concerned. holding power in the middle east is strategically important for many different reasons at this point in time. until the congo has something to offer the us government isn't going to give a flying fuck. establishing a presence in the congo holds no value in the game of global conquest, so fuck 'em.
