What percent of the global diamond market is from conflict diamonds?

Filed Under Diamonds 

Please don’t give me that Kimberley Process garbage. In 2000 they said 4-5% of the market is blood diamonds when it was in actuality 15-20%. Today they say around 1%, and I still don’t believe. There is about $22 million dollars this year coming out of Congo alone.

    You can always assume and usually will be right if and when people are reducing and publishing percentages going down, that in reality they are going up. Blood diamonds are probably much higher that you would believe. probably 50%.

    I don’t really care…and see no reason why you ought to except you are most likely one of those ‘pie in the sky’ do-gooders that are just hemoroids on America’s keester.
    How about being concerned about what is happening to your own country and ITS people?

    A hundred problems here and you want to draw attention to a “non-issue”…typical altruistic buls*** from a typically retarded liberal mook.
    I can only hope that you and your kind appear in my sights when it all comes crashing down,I will enjoy watching you get what you so rightly deserve.
