Peace In Africa : It Starts With The Kids

Burundi's rebel group the National Liberation Force (FNL) has declared a peace policy directed at ending a 15 year long conflict with Bujumbura, Africa (north of Rwanda). The groups' first action taken since pronouncing peace, just this past Saturday, is to release its' child soldiers by the end of January!
"The FNL have pledged to let go of the children among their fighters immediately and unconditionally, by January 30th at the latest," reports African Union special envoy Mamdou Bah.
It has been addressed that there are thousands of child soldiers, either enlisted or enslaved, in the country of Bujumbura. The FNL has also pledged to begin demobilizing and disarming by that same time.
This situation has set the bar for the accomplishments that could be made for World peace in the upcoming year. Two rivals, settling their differences to overcome evil in light of a better life. My birthday is January 31st and I could not ask for anything more then thousands of children getting their childhoods back and peace brought to a country that has left 300,000 dead since the 90s. I am curious to see how this transition will be for these kids. If they do actually quit the harsh life of war or if they have become so familiar with this lifestyle that they actually return. I hope its not the latter. Either way I will keep you posted. Source.
