Mozambique endured a 12-year civil war from 1980 to 1992 between FRELIMO (government forces) and RENAMO (guerilla forces). This war was infamous for its violence and brutality: 1 million of Mozambique's 16 million inhabitants were victims of the war, most of the casualties were inflicted upon civilians, and 5.5 million people were forced to leave their villages to seek refuge in towns, cities, and neighboring countries. More than 250,000 children are thought to have been separated from their families.


USAID supported Save the Children Federation, to help reunite families and children and to help in their readjustment to post-war life.

"No Cause could justify the imposition of pain to others. If the survival of humanity depended on the pain inflicted to one man, a single non-violent man, then it would be better to let humanity perish. Even more so if it means the survival of ones country, or rather a frontier traced arbitrarily on a globe which belongs to all men.

Each person is totally responsible for his own acitons, and can never hide behind the excuse that he had only been following the orders that had been given to him by his superiors. If tomorrow I were to ask you to kill another man, you must not do it. Better still if an eloha were to ask you to kill another man, you should refuse to do it.

All your actions should be based on a deep feeling of respect for the life of others, their ideas, and their tastes. We fight ideologies without ever using violent physical actions toward those who do not agree with us.

It is evident of course that this rule does not apply in cases of legitimate self defense, which is explained in the messages and which permits the possible overpowering, even by force of one who tries to use violence against your person or your loved ones (but without the intention of killing, especially in revenge). If a military man was threatening the destruction of humanity with nuclear missiles, it would be justifiable to overpower him by force, and even to execute him if there was no other means available. Violence could only be applied to those who threaten humanity with violence, while attempting to disarm them and render them powerless."
