Open letter to the United Nations Security Council with regard to most recent Expert Report on the Democratic Republic of Congo

The President
United Nations Security Council

New York,

Your Excellency,

Re: United Nations Security Council Expert Report on the Democratic Republic of Congo

I write this press release on my own behalf and on behalf of Lt General Kayumba Nyamwasa.

In its 6th December 2010 edition, 'The New Times', a Rwanda daily newspaper owned and run by the National Security Service (the intelligence service of the Government of Rwanda) published an article entitled, UN Report Pins Kayumba, Karegeya on FDLR. The newspaper article alleges inter alia, that "independent sources" had linked me and Gen. Nyamwasa to the Rwandan armed group known as the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (the FDLR); that General Nyamwasa has facilitated contacts between the Forces Patriotique pour la Liberation du Congo (the FPLC) and the Federal Republican Forces (the FRF) rebel groups; that "credible testimony" has suggested that former officers of the Congress National pour la Defense du Peuple (the CNDP) have been in contact with us; that the UN Group of Experts on the DRC had "directly witnessed" a conversation between me and the former officers o f the CNDP; that Gen. Nyamwasa may have sent an emissary to meet FDRL, FPLC and Mai Mai Leaders in the Democratic Republic of Congo in February 2010; that both of us are believed to be the masterminds of grenade attacks that took place in Kigali, Rwanda, in early 2010 and that we have been charged with forming a terrorist group, fomenting ethnic divisionism, threatening national security, undermining state authority, and spreading harmful propaganda.
We have also had the opportunity to read the United Nations Security Council Experts' Report on the Democratic Republic of Congo (the Experts' Report on the DRC) and note with both surprise and regret that the report states that 'Several independent sources, including one in Kampala and one within FPLC, informed the Group that FRF had agreed to join the FPLC coalition all alleging, without providing further details that those contacts may have been facilitated by Kayumba Nyamwasa, the dissident former Rwandan general' (para. 73).

The Experts' Report on the DRC further states: “In addition, according to credible testimony from various sources former CNDP officers have been in contact with Rwandan political dissidents in South Africa, including Col. Karegeya, the former head of Rwandan intelligence, and Lieutenant General Faustin Kayumba Nyamwasa, who survived an assassination attempt in June 2010 in Johannesburg. The Group directly witnessed a conversation between Karegeya and former CNDP FARDC officers in the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of the Congo in September. According to United Nations sources and combatant s interviewed by the Group, Kayumba may have sent an emissary to meet with FDLR, FPLC and Mai Mai leaders in the Democratic Republic of Congo in February’ (para. 164).

While we have no reason to question the good faith of the authors of the Experts ' Report on the DRC, we would wish to put it on record that the extensive allegations contained in the Rwanda Government newspaper article referred to in the foregoing paragraph and the more limited allegations set out in the Experts' Report on the DRC are all absolutely false and unfounded. As we have done before, we would like to reiterate that we do not seek to destabilize Rwanda or any of her neighbors. We advocate for democratization in Rwanda through peaceful political change.

Together with our colleagues, Dr. Theogene Rudasingwa and Dr.Gerald Gahima, we articulated (in our idely circulated paper,'Rwanda Briefing ') our political views on the situation in Rwanda and our thinking on a way out of the political impasse that Rwandan society find itself, proposing political reforms in Rwanda as a peaceful alternative to the current dictatorship that can only lead to more conflict and bloodshed. Our political stand on Rwanda’s grave state of affairs remains the same. We are not in any way whatsoever linked to the FDLR, or indeed any other rebel organization operating on the territory of the Democratic Republic of Congo (the DRC) or elsewhere .

We have not had and we do not maintain any contact or relationship of any kind with the groups in question. We have not been involved in thecriminal activities (including the grenades attacks in Kigali) that the Government of Rwanda falsely attributes to us through its media propaganda or politically motivated criminal cases that have been instituted against us in the military justice system of Rwanda. It is ironical that President Kagame, who has a long track record of working with elements from the highest echelons of the leadership of FDLR when it suits his ambitions to acquire and keep power at any cost, should seek to de-legitimize other political leaders with false allegations of contacts with the same organization. President Kagame's uncompromising intransigence on political reform and respect of fundamental liberties destabilizes Rwanda more than any other factor.

Paradoxically, it is President Kagame himself whose policies and actions perpetually destabilize the Great Lakes region . The United Nations Security Council Experts should have taken cognizant of the historical perspectives of Rwanda' s involvement in the DRC conflict since 1996. President Kagame bears very heavy personal responsibility for the human suffering and physical destruction that conflict has caused in the DRC.

President Kagame has twice ordered invasion of the DRC, against the advice of many of his colleagues, and in violations of Rwanda' s laws (that require parliamentary approval of declaration of war) as well as international law. The policy of the Government of Rwanda on the DRC (dictated by President Kagame , as Rwanda lacks a system of government with appropriate checks and balances) is to keep the DRC perpetually weak and vulnerable to his manipulation, blackmail and exploitation. President Kagame has historically sought to weaken and destabilize Congo by forming, training, arming and militarily intervening in support of rebel groups used to wage aggressive war against the legitimate governments of the Democratic Republic of Congo. President Kagame has personally been responsible for the establishment of several of the rebel groups that have been involved in the conflict in the DRC, including some whose activities are discussed in the instant report.

President Kagame was responsible for the creation of the Alliance des Forces Democratiqes pour la Liberation du Congo-Zaire (the AFDL) under late President Desire Laurent Kabila. While the Government of Rwanda was involved in AFDL's formation and operations from the beginning to the end, it repeatedly denied its involvement in the first (1996 - I 997) DRC war. However, then Rwandan Vice-president and Defense Minister Paul Kagame subsequently granted an interview to the Washington Post on 9 July 1997, in which he not only admitted the role that his troops had played a key role in the ADFL campaign, but proudly claimed credit for removing President Mobutu from power. By Kagame’s own admission, Rwanda's campaign strategy during the first Congo war comprised three elements, namely: to destroy the refugee camps, to destroy ex-FAR and Interahamwe structures based in and around the camps and to overthrow the Mobutu regime. The Government of Rwanda had planned the AFDL rebellion in advance, recruiting Congolese combatants, providing the recruits with training in facilities in Rwanda, supplying the Congolese rebels with arms and munitions.

According to Kagame, operations - in particular key operations - were directed by Rwandan mid- level commanders. Contrary to his denials and deceptions, Kagame in fact personally managed the campaign. President Kagame is a micro-manager who is always intervening at all levels in the chain of command, and was directly involved in key operational decisions of the AFOL rebellion.

20 milliars are used by the Rwanda government to per year corrupt individuals, NGOs and governments around the world .

Does Money talk in the western world ?

In 1998, President Laurent Kabila fell out with Paul Kagame (largely due to Kagame's arrogant, over-bearing and irrational behavior) and President Laurent Kabila expelled Rwandan forces from the DRC.
President Kagame retaliated by forming another rebel group, the Rassemblement Congolais pour la Democratie (the RCD) that he used to try and overthrow President Kabila's government. President Kagame again at first denied the presence of Rwanda's troops in the DRC. When the RCD negotiated a political settlement with the DRC overnment, President Kagame retained part of the RCD and formed the CNDP to continue destabilizing and controlling Eastern DRC. After President Paul Kagame fell out with General Laurent Nkunda (the leader of the CNDP) in 2009, Kagame replaced General Nkunda with General Bosco Ntaganda. We have no doubt that even today, the Government of Rwanda is talking to splinter groups of CNDP namely, the FPLC and the FRF, as indicated in the Experts' report on the DRC.

President Kagame's claim to being a stabilizing influence in the Great Lakes region is ridiculous. The President is in fact the single greatest source of instability, violence and bloodshed in both Rwanda and the DRC. For the last fourteen years, President Kagame has visited mayhem on communities across the DRC. Given this historical perspective,and the chronology of President Kagame’s reckless and ruthless strategy to keep DRC’s Kivu region as a de facto extension of Rwanda through proxy forces it should be obvious to Rwanda's neighbors and he wider international community that it is President Kagame, not his opponents like ourselves, who have the motives (weakening the DRC state and getting access to its resources), opportunity (proximity to the DRC) and the means (the final resources of both the Government of Rwanda and the RPF) to form and sustain groups that are detrimental to peace, stability and development in the DRC. In public, President Kagame adopts the language of friendliness towards the DRC and other neighboring countries. In private and through his actions, President is an unrepentant belligerent who seeks to weaken and destabilize other fragile neighboring states struggling to emerge out of conflict.

Symbol of Kagame's wars in DRC: Kadogo

President Kagames military commanders and security operatives (and not ourselves) are responsible for the formation and sustenance of the rebel groups that the Rwanda Government accuses us of fraternizing with. I was in prison in 2005 when the CNDP was established . I spent almost three years in illegal detention in solitary confinement and under house arrest before escaping from Rwanda. Gen. Nyamwasa was serving as Rwanda' s Ambassador to India until March 2010. Neither of us have had any motive or opportunity to have any relations with the rebel groups in question.

The allegation that Kayumba may have sent an emissary to meet with FDLR, FPLC and Mai Mai leaders in the Democratic Republic of Congo in February' is totally unfounded. Gen. Nyamwasa did not, prior to the publication of the Experts Report on the DRC, have any knowledge of the existence of the FPLC and FPLC rebel groups. Consequently it could not have been possible for him to facilitate the contacts between the two groups. I escaped from Rwanda in 2007. The groups that the report discusses were formed when I was no longer in government service and I cannot possibly know any of the individuals who are part of these groups.

You must be extremely courageous and corrupt to stand with such a criminal, if it's true and not a manipulated image.

Gen. Nyamwasa did not send an emissary to FDLR and Mai Mai as alleged in the report as he does not agree with the two groups ideologically. Since 1998, Gen. Nyamwasa was always concerned about the political, social and strategic implications of the formation of anti-government Congolese rebel groups.

He unsuccessfully opposed the formation of such groups during the time that we both worked for the Government of Rwanda. Disagreements over Rwanda's nurturing and patronage of such groups partly accounts for the political differences that eventually arose between General Nyamwasa and President Kagame. General Nyamwasa was still serving as Rwanda's Ambassador to India in February 2010.

He did not have any prior plans to visit Rwanda in February 2010. Gen Nyamwasa's unplanned visit to Rwanda in February 2010 was only compelled by the death of one of his parents. It is very distressing that this sad episode is being cynically used by the Government of Rwanda to frame and victimize him . We are inclined to believe that the authors of the report met Rwandan intelligence operatives in Uganda, where many of these operatives are deployed to hunt down and kill President Kagame's opponents throughout the region.

Beyond the praise for Paul Kagame : Corruption

Corruption helps Kagame’s greatest admirers Bill Clinton, Warren, Tony Blair, and Starbucks magnate Howard Schultz (1) to illegally occupy Rwanda and organize lootings in Congo with the help of their protégé.
American evangelist Rick Warren (2) considers him something of an inspiration and even Bill Gates has invested in what has been called Africa’s success story. Yes, Western liberals, reactionary evangelicals, and capitalist carpetbaggers alike tout Paul Kagame as the herald of a new, self-reliant African prosperity.

It is also a strange one coming from a man who boasts that he has put the past behind him. Not far enough, as it would turn out, to trust the democratic process with criticisms or challenges. Nor far enough to shut down the parasitic black-market trafficking of minerals and resources

We are completely mystified by the significance that the Experts Report on the DRC attaches to a conversation that is alleged to have taken place between me and former officers of the CNDP who have been integrated into the DRC National Army (the FARDC) that the Group of Experts is reported to have witnessed. The report does not indicate how the committee verified that the person that the alleged CNDP officers claimed to speak to was actually me. Neither does the report indicate how the content of the conversation constituted a crime or conspiracy against either of the two states. I do not recall ever having the conversation referred to in the Experts' Report on the DRC. I definitely did not initiate any calls to any known member of the CNDP either have I had any discussions with real or presumed members of the CNDP (or indeed any other person) regarding a conspiracy to destabilize Rwanda or the DRC. It is unfair for the committee to assume, without verification, that the person that the alleged CNPD officers claimed to talk to was indeed me. Our suspicion is that the UN Security Council experts on the DRC must have been duped by Rwandan intelligence operative s who remain embedded in FARDC, of whom there is to our knowledge a very large number. The truth about the alleged conversation could not be established without giving me an opportunityto explain its circumstances . Unfortunately, the team of experts did not provide me with an opportunity to rebut the erroneous impression that the agents who must have duped them created.
The Government of Rwanda keeps a tight grip on the population of Eastern Congo through the former CNDP fighters, at the behest of the Government of Rwanda, during the peace agreement between the CNDP and the government of the Democratic of Congo, it was agreed that unlike all other government forces, CNDP fighters would never be transferred from Eastern Congo. It is most probable that the United Nations Security Council experts interviewed stage-managed witnesses or proxies of the Government of Rwanda. We believe that the so-called 'independent sources' that are alleged to have linked us to the rebel groups in the DRC are likely to be compromised elements of the CNDP, which was created, and is maintained and still remains under the influence of the Government of Rwanda.

The claim that we were the masterminds behind the grenade attacks that exploded in Kigali early this year is absurd. The Government of Rwanda has time and again conveniently changed the narrative about the grenade attacks, depending on whom the Government seeks to victimize at a particular time. Initially, Rwanda's Minister of Security reported that the grenade attacks were the work of the FDLR. Responsibility for the attacks was later shifted to opposition leader Mme. Victoire lngabire, who has now been incarcerated on trumped-up charges. When Gen. Nyamwasa escaped from Rwanda on account of a planned attempt on his life at end of February, the grenade attacks wereblamed on him. The same grenade attacks were said to have been perpetuated by another imprisoned opposition leader, Deo Mushayidi. The government's continuing allegations that we are responsible for the grenade attacks are driven by the vindictive nature of President Paul Kagame, who, having failed in the course of several attempts to assassinate Gen. Nyamwasa and me in South Africa, ordered the arrest and incarceration of Gen.Nyarnwasa's brother. Lt Co l. Rugigana, forced many of his family members to exile, and ordered the murder of John Rutayisire, a relative of mine.

In the aftermath of the publication of the DRC Mapping Report by the United Nations Commission for
Human Rights, President Kagame is desperately searching for anything on the horizon to deflect attention from his crimes by creating `scapegoats for the`suffering and mayhem that he has visited on millions of Rwandans and citizens of the DRC. The allegations that the government of Rwanda is leveling against us (as well as other Rwandans who are demanding an end to dictatorship) are also intended to deflect the attention of the people of Rwanda and the international community from Rwanda's internal crisis, to disguise President Kagame's continuing role in destabilizing neighboring states and to salvage his tarnished image in the aftermath of the publication of the DRC Mapping Report. These types of allegations are characteristic of a regime engulfed by crisis. Trumped-up charges of corruption, terrorism, connections with the FDLR, divisionism, genocide ideology, and even moral impurity are some of the tools that President Kagame always uses against real or perceived opponents.

We challenge the Government of Rwanda to release the dossiers in respect of the criminal cases that have been filed against us (and our colleagues, Dr. Rudasingwa and Dr. Gahima) to the public so that the people of Rwanda and the international community can see for themselves how the sham criminal cases that are being prosecuted against us are nothing but a blatant abuse of the judicial system for purposes of persecution of political opponents.

One of the Kagame's jet
As we have indicated in our paper (Rwanda Briefing) and other declarations, Rwanda is in serious crisis. Peace and stability in several of the neighboring states remains tenuous. By virtue of his unapologetic attempt to destabilize sister states through the use of proxy rebel groups, President Kagame is one of the major (if not the principal) stumbling block to peace and stability in this fragile region . The conflicts waged by the various armed groups that the Government of Rwanda has formed, supported and used to destabilize states in the region have caused immense horrendous suffering. President Kagame bears personal responsibility for the gross human rights violations that are a result of the wars that he has waged and continues to foment in the DRC. We firmly believe that time is long overdue for the international community to hold President Kagame accountable for the crimes that he has committed, and continues to commit, directly or through proxy rebel groups to the peoples of the region. We, on our part, reiterate our commitment to seeking a peaceful transition to democracy in Rwanda and our support for peace and stability in the Great Lakes region, especially in the DRC. We affirm our desire to meet the team of experts on the DRC both to clear the aspersions that have been made againstus.

Accept, your Excellency, the assurances of our highest consideration.

GENERAL KAGAME LEAVES OPPOSITION LEADERS IN PRISON AND DISCUSSES DEVELOPMENT WITH EUROPEAN UNION PARTNERS IN BRUSSELS.

Between 03rd and 07th December 2010, General Kagame is visiting Brussels and EU headquarters where he is expected to appear tomorrow in the European Development Days 5th edition. This is a irony of politics as it happens when his country is facing disturbing challenges: the democracy leader Ms. Victoire INGABIRE and other opposition leaders are in prison; the regime is accused by the United Nations of war crimes, humanitarian crimes and a possible genocide in the Democratic Republic of the Congo; some members of FDU INKINGI in Rwanda are tortured and forced to testify against the party Chair on imaginary terrorist crimes; Rwandans are still running away as a result of an on-going score settling campaign against opposition and dissents after the elections masquerade that keep Rwanda on the edge.

We sincerely expect the partners of Rwanda and the free world to urge President Paul Kagame to open up the political space, to release political prisoners and engage in a broad-based governance of the country through a transparent democratisation process.

The Netherlands also has no plans to provide general budget support to Rwanda, because we believe freedom of expression in Rwanda and the political space is insufficient to justify granting general budget support. As communicated in the Basic Development Letter to the Dutch Parliament, the policy on general budget support is being reviewed and, in general, this instrument will be drastically reduced.

The future of the development relationship with Rwanda, in the broad sense. is part of the current generic policy assessment in the field of development cooperation. The Dutch Parliament will in due course be informed in writing of the results.Dr. U. Rosenthal, The Minister of Foreign Affairs, State Secretary of Foreign Affairs, Dr. B. Knapen

Quest for Justice : Bring the UK backed General Paul Kagame to Justice

Murdered Hutu woman tied up with Akandoya
The infamous Kagame's trade mark

Everybody remembers the blazing sword cutting the night with the indelible sign of Zorro. On the contrary, General Kagame, the Rwandan serial killer, mass murderer and the still president of Rwanda is not a hero as his allies and accomplices Bill Clinton and Tony Blair have cynically presented him to the world.

General Kagame is not championing the cause of the oppressed, He's stopped the genocide he masterminded, planed and used to seize power in Rwanda. However, He did not stop it because the planed genocide went on with the mass-murder as a pretext of revenge in the Kibeho death camp, the Rwandan Auschwitz and later in the refugee camps in DRC.

Watch the video here below if some of you still doesn't believe it. It's all about the unbelievable, but it's True. "Ukuli kwambaye ubusa."

General Kagame still believes he is harder to capture. The RPF rebels assassinated the inhabitants of Ruhengeri and Byumba prefectures in that horrifying way. Throughout the country, the RPF death squad, Kagame's SS are the infamous "Abagizi ba nabi", the "unknown criminals" particularly in the 1993, in January, February and March 1994 before Kagame launched the war against peace April 6, 1994.

They had to kill multiple times and they left some kind of markings on their victims bodies (Hutu men and women and children) to distinguish themselves and most importantly to oblige their relatives and neighbors to flee the region.

On such a cynical exercise, pro RPF media wrote it was a Tutsi woman and the perpetrator, the Hutu ex-FAR.

Posted in "J'accuse"

[Since 1994, the world witnesses the horrifying Tutsi minority (14%) ethnic domination, the Tutsi minority ethnic rule, 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 with an iron hand, and the brutal suppression of the rights of the majority of the Rwandan people (85% are Hutus), and mass-arrests and mass-murder by the RPF criminal organization.=>ASIF]

Quest for Justice

Quest for Gen. Kagame and RPF criminals indictment

Victims of US/UK-Allied Rwandan Dictator Paul Kagame Lead Quest to Bring Him to Justice

Millions of Rwandan and Congolese victims remain craved for Justice. the Rwandan bloody dictator Paul Kagame seems out of the reach of justice.The world must know the truth: And it is this truth that will set us free. 'We must inform the world community about the Rwandan and Congolese genocides mastermind.

Kagame Hard Talk Video
Geüpload door Paul899. - Bekijk de laatste nieuwscontent.
When a long train of abuses, human rights violations and crimes (by shooting innocent Hutu women and chidren, drowning, burying alive innocent men, women and children , stabbing, torture of those Hutu girls and their brothers, beating them, mass-raping those Hutu small girls and their mums, suffocation, starvation, exposure, poison, crushing, and other countless ways that lives can be wiped out, Kagame and his RPF have killed their unarmed and helpless fellow citizens and congolese people only because they happen to be born Hutus.

Those determined to exterminate Hutus have been at it a long time. It is good to look back at history (at least from the 1990 RPF illegal invasion) while events were unfolding to see how we got where we are today :
And when a train of usurpation pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Kagame's despotism, it is Rwandans right - it is their duty - to throw off such a fascist government and provide new guards for the future security of all Rwandans.

From murder to gendercide :1990 -1993 : Byumba and Ruhengeri provinces/prefectures
From gendercide to democide : 1993-1994 : Byumba and Ruhengeri, Gisenyi, Kigali, Kibungo, Gitarama plus all neighbouring prefectures of Burundi, Uganda and Tanzania.
And from democide to genocide :

1994-1995 : Byumba and Ruhengeri, Kibungo, Kigali (both coutryside and town), Gitarama
1995 : Mass-slaughter of the Rwandan Auschwitz : Kibeho
1996-1997 : Rwanda (mass-murder of returnees), Rwandan Hutu Refugees and congolese Hutus
and 1998 up to 2003 :Assassinations, disappearances and mass-murder in both D.R. of the Congo and Rwanda. New refugees to neigbouring countries Burundi, Tanzania, Uganda.

Some regimes, like Rwanda, with rigged elections, call themselves “democratic,” claiming to act on behalf of the people and for their benefit. In reality, the interest such regimes invariably serve is their own power and privilege.
Here below General Paul Kagame is so proud for having murdered his predecessor. Why then should we wait for any kind of investigation results? It's bloody clear that he Himself was behind the tragedy, A crime against peace.

How can we trust a commission that invites the bloody dictator known for his arrogance in exterminating the human kind?

What people are not told shapes their world view and influences their behavior, as surely as what they are told. Imposed ignorance and selective knowledge go hand in hand to forge public opinion and to shape cultural identity :
“Speaking truth to power, especially corrupt power, is dangerous business”General Paul Kagame is the most brutal dictators the UK and US have ever supported.
From murder to gendercide, from gendercide to democide and from democide to genocide.

Ways You Can Get Involved

Any individual who values truth more than lies, who keeps truth alive in his or her heart, despite all efforts to dislodge it from its ethical moorings, is more powerful than even the most advanced weapons systems. Truth emerges unscathed from the rubble of fallen empire as immutable as an inviolable law of nature. Nothing can bring it down because it is real.

The surrender of the right to the wrong

The invitation of the Rwandan dictator tells the European citizen that our representative does nothing but being associated to RPF and Paul Kagame’s criminal acts, including but not limited to, Conspiracy, Fraud, whitewashing of RCD and CNDP, whitewashing of crimes Kagame and RPF, money laundry, etc following the mass-slaughters of those kids, women and men only because they happen to be born Hutu people.

Yet still cynics insist that democracy is unsuitable for Rwandans, that the serial killer mand mastermind of the Rwandan genocide has the right to oppress, assassinate, and send Hutu women to mass-rape by RDF soldiers being in the Congo or from the Democratic Republic of the Congo as heroes.

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere

Democracy means government treating citizens as adults, not children: knowing what’s best for everyone else.The world must know the shameful coverup of RPF crimes inside Rwanda and in the congo as well.

For that reason, African survivors International refuse to be silent:

How long have we heard about such statements: the wrong people winning elections; the wrong people running the country. Some of RPF backers, individuals or organizations should stop prejudicing Hutus. The prejudice and lies to type Hutus led to the genocide we all witnessed. African SurViVors International believes that mono-ethnic army will always lead to repression and everlasting instability. What should be done is a quite dialogue that should result in power-sharing between all ethnic groups in Rwanda (Hutu-Tutsi and Twa).

Given the horrifying reality of permanent fears (of being not being protected against RDF, LDF, MP and CID) of the majority of Rwandans and considering that the RPF coward regime refuses to listen to the Rwandan citizens and the international community, African SurViVors Is open to all options that would help Rwandans to reconcile including the desarmament of RDF, LDF militias, CID and DMI RPF SS and Gestapo to bring hope back to the majority of Rwandans. Other options that are aimed to enslave one of the ethnic group will absolutely lead to failure. Asking for total destruction of FDLR is not an optimazed solution to reosolve the Rwandan issue. All is about eradicating impunity no matter from which ethnic group you're from. To cut off all possibilities of the Hutu majority to defend itself doesn't help at all. The minority rule will always be repressive and that is unacceptable.
That is the reason why ASI condemns the ICG biased statements that are only aimed to fuel up tensions between Hutu and Tutsi Rwandan and Congolese ethnic groups.

To make it clear: Even in the context of the German Nazi: the Nazis never got more than about 40 percent in a free election, and seized total power by force. => Have a look at the 2003 and 2009 Rwandan elections. European observers were suspicious for not telling the Truth on the last rigged elections:
Straightforward political rights of free elections, free speech, rule of law, and protection against arbitrary punishment can be honored without taking anything any life away from anybody. Unfortunantely, the UK and US government did nothing to warn the Rwandan military Junta on the worsening of the situation at all levels in Rwanda before, during and after August 2010 elections.
Can we agree that people my get assassinated and mass-murdered in the name of economic choices? No way. Except in Rwanda, nowhere is free speech unaffordable. Except in Rwanda, nowhere are straightforward civil and human rights unaffordable...

“Democracy gives citizens crucial protections against government, limiting what the most powerful can do, making everyone more safe and secure. That happily lowers the stakes in political competition. Losing an election doesn’t mean losing your livelihood or your life.”

In democracies, free countries, largely, are more prosperous than tyrannies. And human aspirations are not just economic Democracy doesn’t mean just elections. It certainly doesn’t mean “one man, one vote, one time” elections giving control to anti-democrats who never allow another vote. And voting itself can be meaningless if there isn’t fair and open competition.

Government is itself subject to law, open, and transparent; there is a basic trust between government and citizens.
That’s what democracy really is; it’s not just a political system, it’s a cultural system. And societies that develop it don’t elect Hitlers and don’t do all the nasty things that are common to undemocratic regimes. Genuine democracy does not make nations dangerous. Paul Kagame is dangerous and has made Rwanda more dangerous.
A democratic civil society, in contrast, is one with pluralism, rule of law, private property, minority rights, free expression, and decisions made with broad popular participation and debate.
Any individual who values truth more than lies, who keeps truth alive in his or her heart, despite all efforts to dislodge it from its ethical moorings, is more powerful than even the most advanced weapons systems. Truth emerges unscathed from the rubble of fallen empire as immutable as an inviolable law of nature. Nothing can bring it down because it is real.
So,...the simple cross-question that remains is, "How can a "People" defend themselves against Tyranny, if they are not allowed to undergo Arms?".

In other words, how you think Rwandans can defend themselves against Kagame’s tyrannical regime if they are prevented from organizing themselves to get arms. Those who are refusing freedom to Rwandans are likely suggesting that Rwandans should throw themselves in front of Kagame’s tanks and get willing to die for freedom...If Rwandans have an idea that they can then they can.

Rwandans and Congolese survivors and victims needs African SurViVors International

More of us must learn the language of truth; we must be its faithful guardians, if we are to be valuable citizens in this world, rather than the useful idiots of empire. By holding truth and justice in the highest regard, we demonstrate that another world is not only possible, but highly probable.

We must purge our minds of junk media and replace it with something more nutritious, if we favor health over disease. Peace is not possible without two essential ingredients: truth and justice. Neither is possible in the absence of the other. We must live as if truth still matters..Thompson.

The EU Commission has invited NOT a human BUT an animal and a beast.

This is so heart breaking that world community has allowed this to happen in both Rwanda and Democratic Republic of the Congo.The European Commission doesn't care as long as the invited dictator is not a terrorist killing Americans? and Europeans.

The UN Mapping report on Rwanda and Congolese Genocides should be completed
With forethought, General Paul Kagame publicly condemned Genocide, yet ordered Generals Kabarebe and Nyamwasa, Ibingira, Nziza, Nkunda, Ntaganda, Mutebusi, Ruberwa, bizima Karaha, Nyarugabo, etc to establish brothels for RPF, RCD, CNDP soldiers, to use Akandoyi, mass-rape those Hutu women and small girls. General Paul Kagame established one moral code for RDF and Local defense forces and another for himself, one that allowed him to rape five up to nine-year-old Hutu children besides their mums.

Yet, how many of you today dream of such a thing for your little daughters? And if not, how can you convince Rwandan and Congolese Hutu victims that you are different from General Paul Kagame while you invite him to come and see you? It’s all about the deadly conspiracy against Rwandan and Congolese people.

African SurViVors International sustain the idea that RPF victims be given the opportunity not only to be heard, but also to get access to Justice with all implications relating to an international Tribunal that should help reconciliation between Hutu and Tutsi. We are for Justice for all victims. More than 20 experienced investigators participated in the inquiry. The Rwandan dictator Paul Kagame threatens to undermine the World Community effors by taking Rwandans hostage... mass-slautering them and...making the situation worse if he's indicted. Kagame is accused of crimes against Humanity and of war crimes and of most probable genocide. His reaction : "We pull out". Ridiculous. That is blackmail pure and simple and another sign of political hooliganism.
Forced Disappearances, rape and aids used as a weapon of war started earlier in 1993.

Gangbang on our mums and cousins, sisters and daughters.

The world should know we went through the great loss of losing our relatives. It has affected our lives a lot. All of RPF and Kagame’s crimes live now in a dark world. Kagame giving orders to exterminate the hutu people

“Because of this person's atrocities and crimes, my life has totally changed. I am not the same person I used to be. A part of me is still out there searching for her. Sometimes I see someone that looks like her and it shocks me. I can't shake the manner of her death.

I live in fear now because of how she was murdered. When I hear a scream it gives me an image of her screaming and begging for her life. Our family is living in an ongoing nightmare.

It seems to be never-ending, there is no way that this has not affected my life.

The Red Cross did not so much to help and stop her exaction and gangbang rape for one reason that “she was not at work at that moment”, according to the International Red Cross Representative in Rwanda, in a letter to me. Anyway, I know she was also a mother who loved her one-year-old son Nshuti and her other two daughters, Diane, 6 years old and Julie, 8 years old. I have been forced into seclusion after the UNHCR refused me to help me furthering my PhD studies in Toronto while I was in at the UNHCR compound in goma, trusting no one, even those close to me at times. I have found my name in media and books, feel I am trapped no matter where I go. It is hard to talk about, it is hard not to talk about, I have so much anger. => A Rwandan survivor’s confession.

Back in 2002, we used to be able to meet with the families of some of the other victims and that gave us a chance to express our feelings and concerns. But some of us got on. That outlet has also evaporated. Another source of stress that has (been on) us is the long time it takes before General Paul Kagame and other RPF criminals from the Rwandan military Junta got arrested and brought to justice.. Intentionally. Paul Kagame ordered their extermination.

Charles Kizito Bwanakweli disappeared in '97, January 23rd and we have never find out for sure what had happened to him until NOW. All this waiting takes a terrible toll on me, on our family and on our mental well-being".

Stop being lazy and ask the inevitable questions: Why Should Paul kagame use the Tutsi massacres during the Rwandan genocide? Why Paul Kagame doesn't heisitate to humiliate his backers? From where comes the arrogance knowing that he's the architect of the Rwandan genocide?

Interior Tutsis were used to be the bridge for Paul Kagame to not only seize power in a bloody coup d'Etat in Rwanda but also to remain on in office.

Stop believing Kagame’s Big Lie. The majority of Rwandans: Kagame's implacable enemy.
We think You are the only hope the world has of crushing the Big Lie. RPF criminals AND and sympathizers cannot stop it.

Our weapon is truth. First, we must love and respect all of the Rwandan and Congolese victims, no matter which ethnic group they are from. Just like many others, enough to learn the truth; then you must love your neighbor enough to share that truth.

Hitler murdered those who opposed him, so did and still does Paul Kagame.

Hitler killed countless millions on the battlefields and in his extermination camps in six years, Paul kagame did it since 1990 up to now. Officially, from 1993 up to 2003 for oknown reasons according to the UN mapping Report.

The same world community’s silence that allowed the Rwandan dictator Gen. Kagame to run for the last presidential elections in August 2010, keeps inviting him whie he assassinated a journalist and the Rwandan Greens opposition leader.

The action was disastrous for millions of Hutu survivors’ communities in both Rwanda and Congo... The United States with the policy of regime change should help African SurVivors International and other Human rights organizations to isolate HIM. Reason:

Years of Genocide: 1990 -1998 plus isolated assassinations, bloody repression, prisons-containers, disappearances and forced hungry.

This is not the first time that the Rwandan dictator Paul Kagame's actions have been shrouded in controversy. According to African SurViVors International and different human rights organizations both in Rwanda and internationally, Paul Kagame has long been known as one of the worst human rights abusers in Africa, and his RPF government presided over some of the worst acts of genocide in the African Great Lakes Region history. Congo’s dirty war produced more casualties than the world war II.

Additionally, ASI is Not only waiting for reports from academic specialists in that specific places of the massacres but also for the creation of International criminal court with priority no 1 RPF criminals which will fulfill the investigations on the RPF crimes committed against Rwandan Hutu returnees, Congolese Hutu and Hutu refugees.

These reports will provide important information on the context of the massacres and will be used to show patterns in the RPF systematic killings.

Deteriorating Respect for Human Rights

The Human Right Watch and Amnesty International recently released report s highlighting the steady increase of violent human rights in Rwanda with assassinations, and free speech permanent violations, ASI reported violent deaths over the current year in Congo, nation-wide, culminating in 25 homicides of tutsi survivors across Rwanda in order to shift the blame on the Hutu. Most recently, the silencing of several prominent journalists has added to the atmosphere of repression in the country.

Rwanda president, Kagame, uses its military and intelligence services to silence any opponent and kills its own people. In the past the military was used to massacre the refugee camps inside Rwanda such as Kibeho and outside Rwanda such as Congo according to many independent reports. Since then Rwanda has been using its military and intelligence to kill opponent wherever they are on earth (Seth Sendashonga in Kenya, Kayumba nyamwasa in South Africa and many mysterious disappearance of innocent people inside or outside Rwanda.

The outcome is quite easy to predict, when no other candidates are allowed to campaign.

This lack of faith in the judicial system, along with the system's limited capacity for investigation and prosecution, has serious implications for the genocide cases against Paul Kagame and RPF criminal organization.

Given the current human rights climate in Rwanda, the witnesses' families are in constant danger. Recently many of key witnesses in the case of disappearances haves been subject to acts of intimidation and death threats.

African SurViVors International believes that evidence is sufficient to warrant an independent international inquiry into alleged war crimes perpetrated by the RDF batallion currently on the congolese soil, alleged war crimes crimes committed by the FDLR, the CNDP, the Maï Maï and other Kagame's proxy armies and militia operating in the Eastern region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
ICG + MSF Presidents

RPF backers & Masterminds of the Hutu people gathered In Amsterdam. Mainly

For that Reason, Internatioional Crisis Group and African Rights pro RPF organizations are believed to tightly and closely working with Kagame's lobyists and backers. We have learned that millions of Euros might have been yearly paid to coverup RPF crimes and to discredit those FDLR rebels. The investigations are still underway. Once the results are available, they will be aknowledged to the public...

We saw no mention about tough measures taken against RCD, Mai Mai , Pareco and other Kagame's proxy armies and milita operating on kagame's orders.

African SurViVors is ready to provide sufficient proofs on the matter to eradicate RPF, CNDP and RDF impunity. Biased judgement and prejudice against the Hutu rebels jeoparadise total insecurity in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

At the same time, Paul kagame remains untouchable even though the world community has been informed about kagame's war crimes and crimes of Genocide in both Rwanda and Democratic Republic of the Congo .
An assessment of the physical, mental, and emotional harm experienced by the survivors and eyewitnesses to the RPF massacres is being undertaken by some of the ASI committees specialized in healthy and trauma. We need you to double check our writings to better support us.

All in all, the regime uses the Stalinist crime of “divisionism” as a pretext to silence and prosecute any critic who dares question its policies or the state sanctioned version of the 1994 conflict.
Unsurprisingly, the intimidation extends to international institutions. President Clinton supported the effort to create an international war crimes tribunal to mete out justice for perpetrators and victims alike.

International Support is Essential to arrest Paul Kagame and Not to humiliate his victims.

According to ASI Founding Director Jean-Christophe Nizeyimana, international support is essential for issuing international arrest warrant and convicting General Kagame in the light of Bechir, the Sudanese President even though crimes committed by GeneralKagame have no comparison to those committed by HItler, Pol Pot, Stalin or Mussolini.

There is nodenying that Paul Kagame, the acting president of Rwanda is one of the most brutal dictators the US has ever supported.

Kagame came to power with the help of former US President Bill Clinton in 1994. He is accused of the deaths of millions of Hutus and systematic massacre of interior Tutsis of harassment and systematic torture of his political opponents. Clinton provided Kagame with millions of dollars in annual military aid and trained RPF secret police, known as the DMI, CID and LDF.

After assassinating his predecessor and President of Rwanda Juvenal Habyarimana, General Paul Kagame turned Rwanda into a police state and created his private Gestapo, MP, CID and DMI, that created dungeons all around Rwanda and outside of it, that engaged in waves of ethnic cleansing against Hutu intellectuals and businessmen. We happened to discover totally by chance, to stumble on the files of Paul Kagame political police, thousands and thousands of documents, death certificates, spying reports, that give the names of thousands of people who died in detention.

Kagame is believed to have a reputation for brutality. Adding to the assassination of American tourists in Rwindi Park in Congo, he recently assassinated a journalist and a political opponent.

The Kagame case is an inspiration to victims around the world, who say, well, wait a second, we have a legal tool that we can use to bring to justice people who seemed out of the reach of justice.

The world community still has not actually moved forward to support Spain to trial the Rwandan bloody dictator even though the Spanish judge disposes enough proofs to indict Him.

Every morning, Rwandan and Congolese survivors and victims have to knock on the free world’s walls like this.

Victims-survivors tell us how they were living in different prisons. They saw all kinds of torture including Akandoyi, the RPF torture’s trademark (see the picture here above). They saw how their cell mates died. From one day to the next, they would just be dying of torture, in which their arms and legs are tied behind their back until they’re paralyzed.

Rwandan survivors are to mourn their dead. Paul Kagame must be brought to trial. We want a monument for the dead Hutu, Tutsi, Spanish, Canadian, American tourists for those who were tortured to death by the RPF death squads, MP,DMI, CID and local defense forces (LDF).

Rwandans and Congolese Hutu want to mourn their relatives murdered by RDF under Kagame's orders. They want a memorial monument.

Help them to stop ‘m so that they can be free to search for their relatives murdered by General Paul Kagame.

I was constantly afraid. You’re even afraid of your own child. When my husband was arrested, nobody came to visit me. Everybody stayed away. They were afraid something might happen to them if they visited me. Their killer, the one who assassinated their relatives, has been appointed by RPF authorities as a mayor, and many others to different positions, a fact that was aimed to kill them twice and or create permanent fears to victims. Another survivors

Paul Kagame assassinated, mass-murdered using RPF rapists as a weapon to humiliate the Hutu ethnic group members inside and outside Rwanda.... and still goes ahead by killing Rwandans and Congolese Hutu. Who doesn’t remember the military police land rover pickup truck every morning in Kigali, from the prison to the Nyabugogo cemetery? Nyabugogo butchery has really became the Nyabugogo butchery.

We know what we are talking about, we were there. “If they called you between 1:00 a.m. and 3:30 a.m., it was to be executed. If it was after 3:30 a.m., it was for torture. I was tortured from 7:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. the RPF soldier tortured me with his own hands. The soldier was a monster. He put cigarettes on my hands. Prisoners and detainees were and still are held in the Salt Pit.

Were they picking up people who were involved in political organizations, or they were just picking up anyone off the streets?

The increasing anger among Rwandan and congolese survivors
We will not give up. This is not the time to cry. This is not the time to cry. The death of many of our parents will be avenged. There must be justice for this. Justice! Justice! We want justice. We will win.

It could be a very important historical precedent, because unlike the cases that are before the International Criminal Court or the Sierra Leone court, this doesn’t depend on an international institution or the United Nations. This case, like the Pinochet case, was filed by the victims, who are the architects of this effort. And it means, you know, that the precedent is all that much greater, because it’s a tool in the hands of victims and human rights organizations.

Because in addition to filing the cases Unfortunately, the current president of Rwanda is the most bloody, bloodthirsty tyrant that our planet has ever hosted. Since 1994, Rwanda is no longer a state—it’s not a democracy, it’s not a state of law.

For everyone who has lived this kind of situation, they need to know that as long as Paul Kagame is not brought to justice, psychologically, morally, we are not healed, and that remains in our heads.
