The War That Refuses To End

The War That Refuses to End

DRC, M23, and the Profits of Chaos

Eastern Congo has been trapped in a cycle of violence for decades, yet the real story behind the war is rarely told. The War That Refuses to End goes beyond headlines to uncover the deep political, economic, and regional forces that keep the conflict alive.

This book explores how armed groups such as M23 and FDLR, alongside government forces, foreign interests, and international silence, contribute to an endless war fueled by mineral wealth and power struggles. While millions suffer displacement, hunger, and loss, a hidden system of profit continues to thrive.

Through carefully structured chapters, Heri Stunner reveals:

Why peace efforts in Congo repeatedly fail

How natural resources finance instability instead of development

The shared responsibility of rebels, governments, and global actors

The human cost of war on families, women, and children

Why the conflict persists—and who benefits from it

This is not just a book about war. It is a call for awareness, truth, and accountability. The War That Refuses to End invites readers to understand Congo beyond stereotypes and to recognize the resilience of a people whose stories deserve to be heard.

Perfect for readers interested in African politics, conflict studies, human rights, and glob al justice.
