KIMUA, Congo – The young man had been fighting in the rebel movement for 11 years when a piece of paper fell from the sky and fluttered down onto the jungle floor.
When he was sure no one was looking, he picked it up. To his surprise, he could read it. It was written in Kinyarwanda, the language 30-year-old Elias Sanvura had learned as a boy in neighboring Rwanda. It asked a simple question: What’s keeping you from going home?
Inside this clutch of jungle, thousands of young men who belong to a rebel army are beginning to ask themselves the same question.
