A Candle For Remembering
May this memorial candle lights up the historical past of our beloved Country: Rwanda, We love U so much. If Tears could build a stairway. And memories were a lane. I would walk right up to heaven. To bring you home again. No farewell words were spoken. No time to say goodbye. You were gone before I knew it And. Only Paul Kagame knows why. My heart still aches with sadness. And secret tears still flow. What It meant to lose you. No one will ever know.
Why did Kagame this to me?
Can't forget. He murdered my mother. What should be my reaction? FYI: the number of orphans in Rwanda has skyrocketed since the 1990's Kagame's invasion. Much higher numbers of orphans had and have no other option but joining FDLR fighters who are identified as children that have Lost their Parents in Kagame's Wars inside and outside of Rwanda.If someone killed your child/spouse/parent(s) would you seek justice or revenge? Deep insight: What would you do to the person who snuffed the life of someone I love beyond reason? Forgiving would bring me no solace. If you take what really matters to me, I will show you what really matters. NITUTIRWANAHO TUZASHIRA. IGIHE KIRAGEZE.If democracy is to sell one's motherland(Africa), for some zionits support, then I prefer the person who is ready to give all his live for his motherland. Viva President Putin!!!
RPF committed the unspeakable
The perverted RPF committed the UNSPEAKABLE.Two orphans, both against the Nazi world. Point is the fact that their parents' murder Kagame & his RPF held no shock in the Western world. Up to now, the Rwandan Hitler Kagame and his death squads still enjoy impunity inside and outside of Rwanda. What goes through someone's mind as they know RPF murdered their parents? A delayed punishment is actually an encouragement to crime, In Praise of the ongoing Bloodshed in Rwanda. “I always think I am a pro-peace person but if someone harmed someone near and dear to me, I don't think I could be so peaceful. I would like to believe that to seek justice could save millions of people living the African Great Lakes Region - I would devote myself to bringing the 'perp' along to a non-happy ending but would that be enough? You'd have to be in the situation I suppose before you could actually know how you would feel or what you would do”. Jean-Christophe Nizeyimana, Libre Penseur
Hutu Children & their Mums
Look at them ! How they are scared to death. Many Rwandan Hutu and Tutsi, Foreign human rights advocates, jounalists and and lawyers are now on Death Row Waiting to be murdered by Kagame and his RPF death squads. Be the last to know.
Almighty God :Justice for US
Hutu children's daily bread: Intimidation, Slavery, Sex abuses led by RPF criminals and Kagame, DMI: Every single day, there are more assassinations, imprisonment, brainwashing & disappearances. Do they have any chance to end this awful life?
Killing Hutus on daily basis
RPF targeted killings, very often in public areas. Killing Hutus on daily basis by Kagame's murderers and the RPF infamous death squads known as the "UNKNOWN WRONGDOERS"
RPF Trade Mark: Akandoya
Rape, torture and assassination and unslaving of hutu women. Genderside: Rape has always been used by kagame's RPF as a Weapon of War, the killings of Hutu women with the help of Local Defense Forces, DMI and the RPF military
The Torture in Rwanda flourishes
How torture flourishes across Rwanda despite extensive global monitoring
Fighting For Our Freedom?
We need Freedom, Liberation of our fatherland, Human rights respect, Mutual respect between the Hutu majority and the Tutsi minority

"In a dictatorship, one individual has managed to accumulate power and authority to the extent that he or she is the voice and will of the government and, therefore, the people. Dictators are sometimes called totalitarians because all political life is centered on a single individual. The totality of everything the government does revolves around the dictator.
A dictator’s source of power is almost always fear, usually engendered by a loyal paramilitary force that keeps political opponents and uprisings in check. All government officials serve at the will of the dictator. If there is a hint of disloyalty, these people are routinely removed from their positions and, in many instances, executed. Totalitarian economies are almost uniformly command and control economies. Some free market activities exist, but nothing is free from the grasp of the dictator. The structures and functions of government can be altered in any way the dictator pleases. The only redeeming aspect of a totalitarian regime is that it might be slightly better than outright anarchy".
My Predictions of what is likely to happen in Rwanda’s politics
by Jean Paul Ndindamahina, 27 May 2015
by Jean Paul Ndindamahina, 27 May 2015
Kigali Rwanda - It can be very difficult to imagine what would happen when a leader who is like the glue that sticks people and institutions together departs from power or remain on power illegally. The president of Rwanda, alike Rwanda’s former leader Habyarimana, is considered to be capable and a warrior. He is feared by his people and whatever he orders; it is quickly done without questioning. As a former guerrilla commander; He is a man with authority indeed. He does not repeat himself, he is a result oriented president and his passion is to see things being done the way he would like it. For some Rwandans, he is hush and a man with absolute authority and for other Rwandans he is just a warrior, a president who fought wars and liberates the country and revenge for his people and to later to become a man who he is today and a man who holds a key of peace in his hands.
There are a number of Rwandans who fear what tomorrow will bring for Rwanda and many of these Rwandans feel too much will occur if president departs from political office. As ideology goes some Rwandans try to think positive (naïve) hence their campaign for him to keep being the glue that holds them together and others like me, feel that time has come for Rwanda to start building strong institutions are not build on individualism ideology but on sense of nationhood and pride but under one party system, the constitution is going to be amended to allow one man to contest for a third time and keep playing the role to stick people and institutions together and most importantly Rwanda’s current political coalition.
The following are likelihood if the plan to change and amend the constitution goes ahead.
1.Parliamentarian game
This game has already started. Using the ministry of local government, vulnerable Rwanda citizens are contacted and are forced to sign their petitions to demand Kagame’s third term in office. These petitions are then bundled together and brought back to the parliament building and public ceremony is held as a propaganda to show the entire world that in fact, the people of Rwanda want president Kagame to keep his office for a third term.
There is a hint that the parliament is going to look at those petition from people who want Kagame to stay and those who don’t want third term( Only one man Frank, managed to reach parliament building with his against petition but there was no ceremony ) in June 2015 and the likelihood is that the parliament may not decide in June, it may choose to keep stocking their forged people’s petition for a third term until the same people are manipulated to occupy Rwandan streets demanding Kagame’s third term. Forcing people to go into street and demand Kagame’s leadership, is going to be a game that takes off any shame in the face of those who will make decision to change the constitution in its article 101 that currently allows two presidential term limits.
The reason number one that make most Rwandans feel Rwanda is not their home under a certain leadership like RPF led government is that the parliament does not take charge of Rwanda, it is full of individuals who are salary driven and being nominated by their political party and not directly voted by the people, it is impossible that Rwanda’s members of parliament would create a country that any Rwanda can call his or her home hence these so called member of parliament , don’t consider it to be a shame and a betrayal to a country when trying to manipulate the country and her people because they were given a ticket to a parliamentary seat ; not by the people and country but by the president himself who nominates them under their political party.
2.The political game from Political parties in coalition with RPF
We all know that the only political party that exists in Rwanda is green party and we already know that the president of green party Frank Habineza has refused to support the third term in office for the President. Most political parties in coalition fear that if Paul Kagame is to step down as the constitution states in its article 101; then it is without a doubt that the current existence of political coalition will cease to exists and those so called political opposition leaders don’t imagine to operate under a such extreme political environment hence they would support one man who is considered to be the glue that holds them together to keep his office.
Some members in these political oppositions in coalition with RPF may not agree to idea and these political parties would ensure that those who are on their head are President Kagame’s married wives who would convince and if not consent their political members to agree to a third term for president Kagame and we have already started seeing some Rwanda’s opposition parties reshuffling their leadership with PSD the second Rwanda’s largest party removing Dr Ntawukuriryayo as a leader of that party replacing him with DR Biruta, a long term best friend of President Kagame. This reshuffle in opposition parties who are in coalition with RPF ensures silence should the Rwandan constitution to lift presidential terms in office is changed.
3.President Kagame’s own game
President Kagame is the best when it comes to his own political game. He is a man who is capable to hide himself behind humbleness but definitely, he is a man who knows what he wants and who can take advantages if necessary. His recent conference with journalist, he was asked of what he thinks about the ongoing campaign for him to stay in office and he explained two thoughts of school and he said he was with those who say, he should respect the constitution and later, he said he was open for a third term!
So the game is even the constitution is changed to allow him to run for a third term, President Kagame is likely to refuse to straight away go and say , I am now running for a third term in office in fear of causing chaos and international outrage but instead, he will let another person context for a president. Whoever will contest for a president other than President Kagame is likely to fail, 2, 3 or 4 years later; president Kagame would resume his office as usual because legally, he would not be barred from being a president an after he becomes once again the president, he would be for life.
As conclusion, I urge all Rwandan leaders to show due respect to our constitution and respect the right of every Rwandans to follow a political party of their choices. All members of parliament to be directly voted by the people not their political parties. Allow all political changes to take place because the mistake would be to prevent an unavoidable change from taking place.

[Since 1994, the world witnesses the horrifying Tutsi minority (14%) ethnic domination, the Tutsi minority ethnic rule with an iron hand, tyranny and corruption in Rwanda. The current government has been characterized by the total impunity of RPF criminals, the Tutsi economic monopoly, the Tutsi militaristic domination, and the brutal suppression of the rights of the majority of the Rwandan people (85% are Hutus)and mass arrests of Hutus by the RPF criminal organization =>AS International]

CONGRESS TO HOLD HEARING ON RWANDA'S TROUBLING HUMAN RIGHTS RECORD
WASHINGTON, May 14, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The House Foreign
Affairs Subcommittee on Africa, Global
Health, Global Human Rights and International Organizations announced today
that it will hold a hearing on May 20 to examine Rwanda's deteriorating human rights
record under President Paul
Kagame.
The hearing, "Developments in Rwanda,"
will feature testimony from several experts on Rwanda including David Himbara, a
former top economic aide to President Kagame and coordinator of the North
American branch of Democracy in Rwanda Now (DIRN); Robert Higiro, a former
Rwandan army major who fled the country when he was ordered to assassinate
Rwandan dissidents living in South Africa; and Robert Jackson, Principal
Deputy Assistant Secretary in the US Department of State's Bureau of African
Affairs.
"I highly commend Chairman Christopher Smith (R-NJ) and Ranking Member Karen Bass
(D-CA) for holding this very important hearing, which will shine a brighter
spotlight on Rwanda's troubling and worsening human
rights record," said Mr. Himbara.
"I sincerely hope that this
hearing, in addition to raising awareness among members of Congress and the
American people about President Kagame's repressive regime, serves as a
critical step toward ending the troubling, long-established authoritarian governance
of Rwanda. The Rwandan
people deserve to live in a country of opportunity and freedom, not one of
tyranny and fear."
In recent years, President Kagame has
taken deliberate steps to control Rwandan media, silence all opposition and
quiet those who criticize his regime, as evidenced in Human Rights Watch's
World Report 2015. The US State Department has condemned these actions, with
spokesperson Jen
Psaki noting
in a Jan. 16, 2014, press briefing that the
United States is
"troubled by the succession of what appear to be politically motivated
murders of prominent Rwandan exiles."
Many Rwandan opposition activists have
disappeared or died under mysterious circumstances; the State Department's 2013
Country Report on Human Rights Practices states that Rwanda has "major human rights
problems," including "arbitrary or unlawful killings both inside and
outside of the country, disappearances, torture, harsh conditions in prisons
and detention centers, arbitrary arrests, prolonged pretrial detentions and
government infringement on citizens' privacy rights."
Democracy in Rwanda Now (DIRN) is a non-profit,
non-governmental organization that promotes democracy, free speech and human
rights for Rwandans.

Les Présidents Sarkosy et Hollande ont contribué à l'humiliation de la France et de ses soldats, Chose inacceptable.
Un général crie justice. Alors que la France est de nouveau plongée dans les tourments africains, l’homme qui commanda le détachement français de l’opération Turquoise au Rwanda en 1994 pose de bonnes et cruelles questions. Son témoignage est davantage qu’un plaidoyer. Accusée d’avoir couvert et même participé au génocide, l’armée française n’a pas à rougir de son intervention. Mieux, elle a sauvé des dizaines de milliers d’hommes, et si elle doit se plaindre, c’est moins d’être odieusement salie, que trahie par les autorités de l’État français qui non seulement ne défendent pas l’honneur de nos soldats, mais n’ont pas su faire preuve du courage et de la cohérence nécessaires pour neutraliser la folie meurtrière qui a ensanglanté le Rwanda.Didier Tauzin raconte, explique, argumente. Mieux, il met les faits en perspective : on comprend pourquoi la tragédie rwandaise s’est inscrite dans le racisme ordinaire qui a tissé douloureusement les rapports humains dans la région depuis les temps les plus reculés. Pourtant, ce n’est toujours pas une banalité de parler aujourd’hui de la domination de maîtres à esclaves de la minorité tutsie sur la majorité hutue, comme si on pouvait exorciser le spectre du fascisme ethnique en taisant ses propres lâchetés. Faute d’avoir pris la mesure de cette pesanteur historique, la « démocratie arithmétique » issue de la décolonisation a réveillé les vieux démons.
Le général ne craint d’ailleurs pas, citant Bernanos, de parler du délire diabolique qui s’est emparée des Rwandais, toutes ethnies confondues, pour méditer sur la complicité des hommes avec les forces du mal. Et s’il fallait un seul exemple pour mesurer la douleur du soldat, c’est le sacrifice de ce jeune prêtre catholique hutu venu dire une messe grâce à lui dans le camp de réfugiés tutsis de Nyarushishi, et retrouvé peu après assassiné, sans doute par les siens.
Les complices du massacre, conscients ou non, Didier Tauzin les connaît. Si son livre est un cri du cœur, un cri de souffrance et d’indignation qui ne balance pas dans la nuance, parfois avec maladresse, s’il s’en prend directement aux journalistes qui n’hésitèrent pas à faire le jeu de l’ennemi, le récit est plus subtil dans l’analyse des ressorts de la guerre subversive moderne qui s’est déployée autour du Rwanda.
Avec soixante-dix hommes, en 1993, Tauzin a tenu en échec les troupes du FPR de Kagamé. Le feu vert de Paris, et la contre-offensive préparée par le colonel et ses marsouins du 1er RPIMa, aidés par les artilleurs-parachutistes du 35e RAP, rétablissait les conditions d’une paix durable. L’ordre ne vint pas, la France préféra céder aux sirènes d’une politique étrangère pétrie de bons sentiments (le processus d’Arusha ), mais dont il fallut payer le prix fort un an plus tard.
La guerre est toujours une épreuve de vérité , écrit le général Tauzin. Avec ce disciple de Lyautey, on se dit que le destin de la France (il parle, lui, de vocation) se joue peut-être en Afrique.

It accuses Rwandan, Ugandan and Burundian forces of participating in the attacks, and recommends that the international community seeks to prosecute those responsible.
The document's publication prompted angry denials from all the countries.
But the Congolese government said the report was credible and heartbreaking.
"The victims deserve justice and they deserve that their voices are heard by my government and by the international community," its UN representative, Ileka Atoki, said in a statement.
DR Congo was "appalled at the horrific nature and scope" of the crimes documented in the report, he added.
However, the government said the information in the document was not new and that a previous request by DR Congo President Joseph Kabila to establish an international criminal tribunal had been ignored by the UN.
It also made no specific comment on the allegations of genocide.
'More nuanced language'
The Mapping Report documenting the most serious violations international humanitarian law committed within DR Congo between 1993 and 2003 details crimes never previously documented.
It covers 617 incidents and includes allegations of massacres of civilians, torture, and the destruction of infrastructure that led to civilian deaths.
The report says several incidents in 1996 and 1997 pointed to "circumstances and facts from which a court could infer the intention to destroy the Hutu ethnic group in the DRC in part".
"The extensive use of edged weapons... and the apparently systematic nature of the massacres of survivors after the camps had been taken suggests that the numerous deaths cannot be attributed to the hazards of war or seen as equating to collateral damage."
Rwanda's government has always said its troops entered DR Congo to pursue the militiamen responsible for the 1994 genocide of Tutsis.
But the report says a very high number of Hutu civilians were shot, raped, burnt or beaten, and the attacks took place after refugees had allegedly been screened by the Rwandan army (APR) and the Congolese rebel movement it supported, the Alliance of Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Congo (AFDL).
"The apparent systematic and widespread attacks described in this report reveal a number of inculpatory elements that, if proven before a competent court, could be characterized as crimes of genocide," it concludes.
In one incident cited in the report, AFDL/APR units allegedly killed around 500 refugees at the bridge over the Ulindi river at Shabunda in February 1997.
After the massacre, it says, villagers were made to dump the bodies in the river and clean the bridge. The soldiers allegedly then forcefully led away the survivors and executed them the following day.
The report calls for a full judicial investigation to take place to determine whether these "incidents amount to the crime of genocide".
The BBC's Mark Doyle says the draft report spoke of "damning" reports of "systematic and widespread attacks" which, if proven in court, "could be classified as crimes of genocide".The final version is more nuanced, speaking of "apparent" attacks, which "could be characterised as crimes of genocide", our correspondents says.The UN said the language was not changed because of pressure from the countries accused of atrocities, and that UN lawyers always reviewed important reports, he adds.

'Rewriting history'
Despite the changes, Rwanda categorically rejected the report.
DR Congo and Rwanda: Troublesome neighbours

"The desire to validate the double genocide theory is consistently present throughout the draft Mapping Report by mirror-imaging the actors, ideology, and methods employed during the 1994 Rwandan genocide," a government statement said.
Correspondents says the charge of genocide is particularly sensitive for the government of Rwanda's President Paul Kagame who portrays himself as the man who ended the genocide of his Tutsi people.Rwandan Foreign Affairs Minister Louise Mushikiwabo said the document remained "flawed and dangerous from start to finish".She criticised the methodology used to collect evidence and accused the UN of seeking to rewrite history.

President Kagame threatened to withdraw Rwandan troops from UN peacekeeping operation in response to the draft report. He was only persuaded not to after Rwanda would be allowed to submit comments for inclusion.
Uganda, which had also threatened to pull out of peacekeeping missions, said the report was not well-considered or objective.
Burundi also rejected the conclusions, saying they were "clearly aimed at destabilising the region".
The east of DR Congo is still plagued by army and militia violence despite the end of the country's five-year war in 2003 in which more than five million people lost their lives - the deadliest conflict since World War II.
