The
candle burns not for us, but for all those whom we failed to
rescue from Kagame’s prisons and assassinations -
The sad truth is that most evil is done by people who never
make up their minds to be either good or evil.

Rwanda: Justice in jeopardy: The first instance trial of Victoire Ingabire
Rwanda
The arrest of opposition politician
Victoire Ingabire after her return to Rwanda to contest the 2010 elections
attracted widespread international attention. The criminal trial, one of the
longest in Rwandan history, is both politically and legally important, as a
test of the Rwandan judiciary’s capacity to deal with high-profile political
cases fairly and independently. Victoire Ingabire was convicted and sentenced
to eight years in prison; she has appealed to the Supreme Court. Amnesty
international is urging the Rwandan authorities to ensure that her appeal meets
standards under Rwandan and international law.

The Truth can be buried and stomped into the ground where none can see, yet eventually it will, like a seed, break through the surface once again far more potent than ever, and Nothing can stop it. Truth can be suppressed for a "time", yet It cannot be destroyed. ==> Wolverine
