Ryszard Kapuściński said in 2006:

My experiences come from the Third World. In my opinion, because the 9/11 took place in the USA, it was given the publicity on the American scale, i.e. gigantic. From my point of view – too big. Of course this attack had huge impact on our times, but I think there are many more important events from the point of view of the whole humanity. I myself have been a witness of far worse scenes. I was in the Congo. That was in the beginning of 1961. From that time till this day there is bloodshed in this country. Non-stop there is war. According to the assessments of international institutions 4 million people have died since that time. This is – given the number of citizens – a small country! These are gruseome statistics! Horrendous numbers! People are still dying there. And who didn’t die or was killed, is a disabled person. If not physical, then for sur psychical. So the tragedy of 9/11, among other tragedies of the 20th and 21st century, is just one of many. The difference is that cameras were not present during other tragedies .

Professor Yaa-Lengi Ngemi also spoke about the Congo on April 20, 2011 in New York City during the Q&A session of the meeting about Libya, Ivory Coast and the future of Africa [from 1:07:20 till 1:11:34 in the following video]:
