	FN FAL (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		The FAL is gas-operated and fires from the closed-bolt position in both the semi- and full-auto modes.
		The FAL receivers are all marked "F.A.L. cal. 7.62," while the LARs are stamped ".308 MATCH." It seems that it is now illegal for any citizen of Belgium to own a rifle chambered for any military caliber, such as 7.62mm NATO.
		The FN FAL, one of the 20th-century's grandest dogs of war, will be remembered fondly and mourned mightily by all those who used it in the flame and sweat of battle.

	Belgian Battle Rifles
		Notes: The FAL (Fusil Automatique Leger) was the most successful weapon Fabrique Nationale (FN) ever produced, and one of the most successful weapons ever made.
		The FAL was originally a product-improved Model 49, with lighter construction and a larger magazine capacity.
		The FAL 50-00 is the basic version of the FAL, designed in 1950 and first sold in 1953, with a fixed stock originally made of wood, but quickly switched to fiberglass.

	FN FAL Information
		The West German G-1,the Austrian StG58 and the Dutch FAL all have a lightweight, folding metal bipod as part of their metal forestock; the British L1 Al and the Indian Ishapore rifles, capable of semiautomatic fire only, have zigzag dirt clearance cuts in the bolt carriers, folding operating handles and enlarged magazine catches and selectors.
		It is often difficult to identify the original purchaser of a FAL unless the rifle is stamped with an identifying seal or crest.
		The FN FAL is also called: the SLR, for self-loading rifle; L1-Al, by the UK and some Commonwealth nations; the Gewehr 1, by the Bundeswehr (West Germany); the Sturmgewehr 58, by the Austrians; the Cl-Al, by the Canadians; and the lA SL, by the Indian Army.

	Kofi Ankomah reviews The Assassination of Lumumba by Ludo De Witte
		At independence, the army of the Congo, known as the Force Publique, was officered by the Belgians and Lumumba had the audacity to support its "Congolisation".
		In the case of the regime change of the Democratic Republic of Congo in 1960, many commentators have either accused the United Nations itself of complacency and some other Western powers for connivance in the overthrow, imprisonment and assassination of Patrice Lumumba.
		But the events that culminated in the Congo crises still dominate the country that David Gould described: "Zaire is potentially the wealthiest country in African, but it stands today as an impoverished development tragedy.

	BELLUM - FN FAL (Fusil Automatique Légère)
		DS Arms makes a wide range of FAL clones, including weapons patterned off of the Austrian Stg.58 and the H&R T48, and is the only manufacturer in the United States making complete FALs.
		The FAL prototype greatly impressed the Americans, but the idea of the intermediate cartridge was at that moment incomprehensible for them, and USA insisted on adoption of their full-power cartridge (used in the T44) as a NATO standard in 1953-1954.
		Austria adopted the FAL in 1958 as a StG.58.

		The International Rescue Committee (IRC) reported in a mortality study released in April that between 3 and 4.7 million excess deaths occurred between August 1998 and December 2002 in the five eastern provinces of the DRC alone.
		A survey released this year by Pax Christi, a Catholic organisation that promotes peace, indicates that the majority of weapons available in the DRC, from AK-47s and FAL assault rifles to rocket propelled grenade launchers, can be traced to Uganda, Sudan and Rwanda, as well as to countries outside the Great Lakes region.
		Militias are known to be moving weapons to and from the Republic of Congo and the Central African Republic.

	New revelations on the assassination of Patrice Lumumba: A belated trial of Belgian colonialism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		The night was chilly, that 17th of January 1961 in Katanga, the rich copper province of the former Belgian Congo.
		The murder of Lumumba and two of his ministers, Mpolo and Okito, cleared the road for the crushing of the anti-imperialist uprisings in the Congo and thus laid the foundations for the compradore regime of Mobutu.
		Therefore, while pointing out the shortcomings of a nationalist programme and the need for socialist internationalism throughout Africa and the rest of the world, Lumumba's heritage has to be taken on cautiously and with respect.

		He came to the conclusion that the Eyskens government, at the very least, encouraged the climate in which Lumumba eventually was murdered and that the United Nations troops in the Congo were "accomplices by neglect".
		The mineral-rich Congo (a geologist once described the former Belgian colony as a "geological scandal") was plundered for 30 years in the most brutal way by Belgian, French and American imperialism and by the cleptocracy around Mobutu.
		The West is taking this threat seriously again and is trying to keep Kabila under pressure by financing some artificial uprisings in the east of the Congo.
