And Where are baloch and pashtun children being sold by pakistan army ?
But he said he wants to bring back the children to their Owners!?!?

"Bring back kids and return to their owners" - you mean parents?
well that just word for word...

Wait, can I return my kid?
You thought they were stolen from their parents? Nah, they were stolen from people who bought them.

@@backseatpalace and yet all's everyone does here is complain
It's often worth even much more than that.
@Spicy Dunk Leaders shouldn't make sure their people have anything. A good leader makes sure their people can acquire assets on their own... A government shouldn't be act as a parent. That mentality actually perpetuates poverty
Yes exactly. Be gratefull...
Modern day slavery, plain and simple
There are millions of slaves on the planet
No capitalism is modern day slavery
nothing about this is modern, this has existed for thousands of years maybe even longer, abduction of children/adults for labour / other things is not new
silensiAAA it’s slavery but instead of white people being the masters it’s black people lol
But it’s black on black that’s why no one is hyping it up, it’s considered to be “normal”
"Bring back children and return them to their owners" I really hope it's just his language barrier.
I think he didn’t mean it in a bad way (hopefully) I understood that since the kids are sold, they now have owners so they need to return them to their actual “owners” (the parents). I don’t know if that makes sense. But yes, I hope it was just a language barrier.
"Biliguinist here who speaks English and Nuer the language spoken in the video. I understood what he was saying and I was reading the subtitles with it. For the most part they were accurate with translating. There are things that don't translate correctly between different languages. What's lost in translation is that it's not meant to be "owners". It was meant to say have them returned to the ones who take care of them. A generic term. South Sudan is a new nation but it has been in a state of conflict since it's inception. Even before 2011 the area that would be South Sudan was plagued with civil wars for decades. There are simply a lot of children out there from South Sudan who were never reconnected with their parents and are either taking care of themselves or being taken care of by someone. Hence the true translation." -Kun Deng
@@jestes7 thank you for the clarification man
I think it is
@@jestes7 I can attest to what your saying. I too speak Nuer and English. My name is Nyalok. I have the standard “daughter of” prefix of Nya.

Human are greedy. Those who change it are legends of today...!!!!
Why would you even wanna have kids if you are this poor, you can't even feed them. I dont understand this shit.
Dispreet Dhillon, it’s natural. A very few amount of people decide to have sex to make babies in our day and age, but rather to have fun in a recreational activity. Do you really think the parents are jumping up and down all excited about having a kid? No. Because it’s called unplanned pregnancy and they’re aware of the financial burden the child will inflict. Sadly, abortions are generally inaccessible in those impoverished areas, which is why you see these sad stories occurring, not because the parents want to cause pain and suffering to themselves and their children.
@@yonishashi4060 it's not natural dude, they do it for fun but when it's time to pull out, gets too late, here you go, you get pregnant.

Right same goes for killing. It’s sad, I hate hearing that one of my distant relatives were killed because of tribalism.
What else can he do? Beg them to return their children? That wont work so might as well abduct theirs so maybe you can trade and then everybody has their children back and both sides wont mess with eachother anymore
Its funny no one complains about the native americans doing literally this exact thing.
@@chupapi7620 “an eye for an eye makes the whole world go blind”
The fact that he says; "we need to get them back to their owners' is proof he still looks at children as being property.

You have to look deeper into this the warlord was the only one who had decent English. He is communicating with the abductors and trading cattle "unsuccessfully" he knows something he's not telling the whole story.

looks like the "I dun do nothing" attitude is not just American blacks, seems to just be a black thing. Lack of responsbility and owning up to their issues, just blaming others as per usual, never anyones fault.

Why do you steal children? “We didn’t start it”. Oh, ok. 👍
lool
It's actually a fascinating answer. If you go back far enough, you'll find that it was the British, French, and Dutch that really began this tradition. Not just in Sudan, but throughout Africa. It's shocking to hear them talk of children as commodities, but that's what colonization does. It takes the native inhabitant and reduces them to a mere commodity. I could see how over a century of that, paired with a complete lack of economic development, might leave a society a bit screwed up.
Drew except that Africans themselves would capture their own and sell them to the Europeans.
@TheExtravagantMule "we are the fire"
as much as it is an excuse, it's a valid answer - that's what he was born into, people probably teach you to participate in it before you are really an adult yourself. there's probably not much of a "why", it's just always been there for the people who do it now.
Being South Sudanese myself, there’s a tribe called Murle who are notorious for kidnapping children and looting cattle. They’ve been doing it for a very long time.
That man with the red cap on his name is David Yau Yau and he belongs to Murle, they operate around Pibor area Jonglei state.
Very true Chol, Yauyau is not reformed. He has just legitimised his operations by being part of the government. Just the other day they raided Lou Nuer villages and took children.
Why doesn't the government ban that behavior?
Mabor Matot Yau Yau has been rebelling even before South Sudan became independent, he was funded by Khartoum to destabilise the region and you’re right he just legitimised himself, but he is still a rebel regardless.
@@mrnarason because the government is involved in it. Yau yau is a governor and still abducts kids.
Glad to see Vice going back to their roots again. They touched on this briefly not that long ago in a special with Ben Anderson and I recall wanting to hear a deeper dive on it. It was a fairly lengthy piece about everything from human trafficing to, the gem trade to the UN's operations in central Africa

They have since corrected it. Idk when they rectified it but as of Thursday May 21, 2020 the title is correct and resembles what the plot is.
@First Last what ?
@@nickyrathor007 no bro dont listen to this stupid..
These kids are sad they didnt go to school and here in America kids hate school and give teachers a headache and complain all day.
you should also consider that teachers in america teach with career-driven mind and are taxed heavily... teachers in impoversihed nations are usually volunteers who are idealists who dont really earn money, and are happy to contribute to the lives of the poor... children in upper class socities dont value school because they believe its obligation... children in lower socities see schooing as luxury and a slice of freedom.. its really a sad reality
If these kids have to face the academic and social pressure in America they would hate it too, people always want what they don’t have.
Nomad Black, it is common for people with low values to take things for granted. Have you seen the DOC. About the most dangerous roads to school. Now that is determination driven by hope to better oneself. Guidance is essential for a person to develop the drive to learn and better oneself and at the same time value the simple opportunity of existence. Be good god to your spawns.
Jr Beans, he is not referring to your town.
Well some school is better than no school but schools in america suck so much cause after you have become literate the thing they teach you are completely useless in your life or even in your job. Example history and spanish.
Saying American kids hate school is like saying look in that poor country people are starving so you should happily eat this half rotten bread. Bad bread is better than no bread but it doesn't change the fact that bread is very very bad.
Just because someone is in worse condition than you doesn't make your condition good.

When she said to the ex-warlord " you've given them cattle and they still didn't want to give us our children back" it made me wonder if he's taken their cattle promising to get their children back and selling the cattle for a profit and not actually trying to broker a deal for the children.

This is so damn heartbreaking. As an adult who has been in close up combat situations, I cant even imagine the mental toll this fighting takes on a child's mental health. Especially with the added fact that these kids have also been abducted from their families and sold around like commodities. HEARTBREAKING.
If any of those kids could escape and make it anywhere near where I live, I will be first in line to help them recover and grow and help them find their biological family, if they so desire.

bad guy: buys a kid with all his money
kid: "Let me go to the market"
He payed 40 cows for that kid.
smart kid outsmarted him.. how u let him go to market having just spent 15- 20 grand on him
only took a decade aswell handy job
Usually the smart people don’t buy slaves or choose a life like that. So kinda makes sense that they would be dull in the head. And you gotta keep in mind he probably somewhat trusted the boy if he had him for multiple years
my mom was one of those kids who fought in the south sudan war, her sisters, brother, and her were kidnapped, my mom got away, but my aunt and uncle went deaf, my grandma left my mom at 3 and came back to her when she came to america, my was 11 when she raised my uncle and aunts, my dad's family lived in Gonder, Ethiopia, my dad's brother killed 1334-1448 people in Ethiopia civil war, he threw missiles at their region, my great grandpa fought against italy in the 30's or 40's, he killed 130- 270 people, 2 weeks before I was born, my dad's little brother died, someone put a whole machete into his head, no one knows who did, and my dad's little brother was about to go to America, my mom's dad fought in some war tho, I did my research and couldnt find how many people he killed, my dad helped in some of the murders my great grandpa committed in the war at 10, sadly tho, I never got to meet my grandpas, my dad's father died in 1997, my mom's father died in 2017 or 2016, I went there to visit my dad's little brother's grave, and both of my grandpas grave, I seen a person shot to death at a protest by some soilders at 8, and most of my dad's child hood friends died, also my mom, dont make memes out of this.
The ending was so powerful..
She knows it’s not likely they’ll come back, but *despite it* she chooses hope. Because living without hope is a death sentence
Made a new TH-cam video, lmk what u think
Yessss
Have FAITH
I personally found the ending distasteful like ofc she knows she’s probably never gonna see her kids again.
Dude u got 100 likes and tried to plug ur channel on a documentary gtfo

By the time they took us into the bush, I started to think of my mother that I would never meet her again, my brother, my father and my family all that I would never meet with them, it was like I had died already
"There owners" you mean their families!
Their family sold them so they were technically the first owners.
You must understand that in many languages parents are called owners, so when translated into english there are some minor errors.
_You_ mean their families, clearly, unfortunately, they don't.
Relax his native tongue is not english

What else are they supposed to do tho? Atleast they can now negotiate with the others about getting both sides kids back.
My brother was almost kidnapped once when we went to the night market. Luckily he managed to distract the guy and I found him hiding in a vendor's store. The vendor gave us free food.
To be born in America in the 21st century is a true blessing. Not only to be born here, but to be born at this time period. Just 150 years ago would have been a very hard life.
How upsetting. Not knowing wether your child is dead or alive.
0:36 *Have you ever abducted a child?*
_"Yeee!"_
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba 0:36
Interviewer: Have you ever abducted a child?
South Sudanese: ii
There's so many stories about families being separated and loosing contact for a life time. To not have closure whether your mother or father is dead or alive has to be frightening. Not only that but you'll have an existential crisis.

its near the end is near jesus christ is not happy at all
The world has been messed up from the beginning. This is nothing new.

@@sebajun8601 jesus ain't coming to save us. We need to save ourselves. Remember the fable about the drowning man who refused help because god was going to save him?
The shit is not going to end. It's just going to get worse until people are willing to pay the costs of physically standing up against it.
This has been going on but what the eye does not see the heart doesn't mourn
That statement about bringing back kids to their ’owners’ not family tells you this man’s mindset...
Maybe because their parents sold them in the first place.
Or or or ro ror ro or or his English sucks
You must understand that in many languages parents are called owners, so when translated into english there are some minor errors.
In many languages guardian or owner is referred to the parent. I’m unsure of local customs of south sudan but this could be the case.
This is heartbreaking 😭 to think what the American and other fortunate children complain about vs what these kids go through. I have to go work but I want to sit here and cry for 15mins for these people in Hope's their fate will somehow benefit from here and to keep from bottling it. This is so not okay. Please greater powers help these people 🥺🙏
5:14 damn it took him like 10 seconds to say "I hunt to feed my children" and he said like a lot of words
Lmaoo
I wish “return to their (owners)” was the only way he knew how to translate in English
these people dont look at others like u and me do...theyre property to them not humans...well a property that can fire an AK-47
Maniacally Quiet that is racist
I call bullshit. Telling me someone knows what an owner is and not mom and dad? On of the first things you learn in new languages is that sort of basic stuff.
You're probably being sarcastic, lol.
@@ManiacallyQuiet be specific when you say these people...
@@rahrah8085 doesn't need to. It's obvious who he's talking about and he's correct
Warlord: We need to return children back to their owners
Reporter: You mean parents
Warlord: Sure if they are also the owners
Zini Najid that’s probably just the fact of English not being a primary language, they don’t get that using owner to describe guardian isn’t right probably.

"Biliguinist here who speaks English and Nuer the language spoken in the video. I understood what he was saying and I was reading the subtitles with it. For the most part they were accurate with translating. There are things that don't translate correctly between different languages. What's lost in translation is that it's not meant to be "owners". It was meant to say have them returned to the ones who take care of them. A generic term. South Sudan is a new nation but it has been in a state of conflict since it's inception. Even before 2011 the area that would be South Sudan was plagued with civil wars for decades. There are simply a lot of children out there from South Sudan who were never reconnected with their parents and are either taking care of themselves or being taken care of by someone. Hence the true translation." -Kun Deng

wow.. selling ur own kind. that’s just disgusting.

Racist right
It’s easy for you to sit here and preach about it being disgusting because you were never in a situation were the only way to survive is to sell them.
It's disgusting not because they are their own kind, but rather because they are humans
That's wrong
And the US is under criticism for something that happened 150 years ago
They complain about things they know nothing about... biggest issue blacks in America face is themselves but that doesn't fit BLMs agenda.
DukeOfTennessee117 because even after the thing that happened 150 years ago, what really changed? Over 3000 black men were lynched, and even after the anti lynching law true weren’t free. It’s not like they were given money and a house to live with after they were given rights.
Technoblade Fan because that’s not how the world works
It didn't happen 150 years ago, it was going on for the last 600 years
TrippieA _ not by Americans obviously, and not by Northern Europe

5:30 "automatic weapons arent normally used to hunt animals"
How exactly? They work the same way as a regular rifle, only difference is that their full auto. Still got the same bullet and ballistics
Wasteful, more bullets are used, adds unnecessary cost

@@chrissmith3587 the automatic rifles are also often fake home-made ak47s, which are very inacurrate

Wastes ammo, usually less accurate than a single fire rifle.
The way he called the kids parents their "owners" made me feel a certain way . I don't know how to.explain how it made me feel. It just sounds so weird, like owner of a car a house a pet or something. Kids are an extension of you. You.their parent. You are not an owner, they aren't an item to be traded or bought. They are to be loved.
Sadly, some parents look upon their children as something that fell out of their bodies and as such look upon them as property, and its not just in africa
Your parents do own you until you can take care of yourself. They have full responsibility.
man said "yee" when he was asked if he kidnapped children
