Kagame devra être livré aux Rwandais pour répondre à ses crimes: la meilleure option de réconciliation nationale entre les Hutus et les Tutsis.
Let us remember Our People
Let us remember our people, it is our right
You can't stop thinking
Don't you know
Rwandans are talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
The majority Hutus and interior Tutsi are gonna rise up
And get their share
SurViVors are gonna rise up
And take what's theirs.
We're the survivors, yes: the Hutu survivors!
Yes, we're the survivors, like Daniel out of the lions' den
(Hutu survivors) Survivors, survivors!
Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights
et up, stand up, don't give up the fight
“I’m never gonna hold you like I did / Or say I love you to the kids / You’re never gonna see it in my eyes / It’s not gonna hurt me when you cry / I’m not gonna miss you.”
The situation is undeniably hurtful but we can'stop thinking we’re heartbroken over the loss of our beloved ones.

Welcome to Home Truths
The year is 1994, the Fruitful year and the Start of a long epoch of the Rwandan RPF bloody dictatorship. Rwanda and DRC have become a unique arena and fertile ground for wars and lies. Tutsi RPF members deny Rights and Justice to the Hutu majority, to Interior Tutsis, to Congolese people, publicly claim the status of victim as the only SurViVors while millions of Hutu, interior Tutsi and Congolese people were butchered. Please make RPF criminals a Day One priority. Allow voices of the REAL victims to be heard.
Everybody Hurts
“Everybody Hurts” is one of the rare songs on this list that actually offers catharsis. It’s beautifully simple: you’re sad, but you’re not alone because “everybody hurts, everybody cries.” You’re human, in other words, and we all have our moments. So take R.E.M.’s advice, “take comfort in your friends,” blast this song, have yourself a good cry, and then move on. You’ll feel better, I promise.—Bonnie Stiernberg

Rwanda-rebranding
Rwanda-rebranding-Targeting dissidents inside and abroad, despite war crimes and repression
Rwanda has “A well primed PR machine”, and that this has been key in “persuading the key members of the international community that it has an exemplary constitution emphasizing democracy, power-sharing, and human rights which it fully respects”. It concluded: “The truth is, however, the opposite. What you see is not what you get: A FAÇADE”
Rwanda has hired several PR firms to work on deflecting criticism, and rebranding the country.
Targeting dissidents abroad
One of the more worrying aspects of Racepoint’s objectives
was to “Educate and correct the ill informed and factually
incorrect information perpetuated by certain groups of expatriates
and NGOs,” including, presumably, the critiques
of the crackdown on dissent among political opponents
overseas.
This should be seen in the context of accusations
that Rwanda has plotted to kill dissidents abroad. A
recent investigation by the Globe and Mail claims, “Rwandan
exiles in both South Africa and Belgium – speaking in clandestine meetings in secure locations because of their fears of attack – gave detailed accounts of being recruited to assassinate critics of President Kagame….
Ways To Get Rid of Kagame
How to proceed for revolution in Rwanda:
- The people should overthrow the Rwandan dictator (often put in place by foreign agencies) and throw him, along with his henchmen and family, out of the country – e.g., the Shah of Iran, Marcos of Philippines.Compaore of Burkina Faso
- Rwandans organize a violent revolution and have the dictator killed – e.g., Ceaucescu in Romania.
- Foreign powers (till then maintaining the dictator) force the dictator to exile without armed intervention – e.g. Mátyás Rákosi of Hungary was exiled by the Soviets to Kirgizia in 1970 to “seek medical attention”.
- Foreign powers march in and remove the dictator (whom they either instated or helped earlier) – e.g. Saddam Hussein of Iraq or Manuel Noriega of Panama.
- The dictator kills himself in an act of desperation – e.g., Hitler in 1945.
- The dictator is assassinated by people near him – e.g., Julius Caesar of Rome in 44 AD was stabbed by 60-70 people (only one wound was fatal though).
- Organise strikes and unrest to paralyze the country and convince even the army not to support the dictaor – e.g., Jorge Ubico y Castañeda was ousted in Guatemala in 1944 and Guatemala became democratic, Recedntly in Burkina Faso with the dictator Blaise Compaoré.

According to African SurViVors International (ASI), arbitrary arrest, torture, disappearance, mass killings and political killings WERE everyday realities for Rwandans during the last 20 years of US financed military (stalinizing the country) to Kagame and his RPF criminal organization.
*
The bloody coup of April 6, 1994, in which President Juvenal Habyarimana was assassinated, was carefully managed by CIA, the most notarious dictator of Africa General Kagame, the US, British governments and other foreign organizations.
The majority of Rwandans (Hutus) remain in total poverty because the US adminstration is supposed NOT to be trading with the RPF enemy.
*The civil war in Rwanda and the ethnic massacres were an integral part of US foreign policy, carefully staged in accordance with precise strategic and economic objectives*
According to Warren and Bill Clinton: The Fuhrer's greatest admirers :
General Kagame:
*
GEt to understand IT better:
Up to now, the West ignores General Kagame's cruelty as he continues to demand more aid and sophisticated weapons. We are witnessing millions of Rwandan refugees, hundreds-of-thousands dying from disease and starvation in neighboring countries (Democratic of Congo, Tanzania and Burundi),arbitrary arrests, arbidtrary executions, assassinations, disappearances, mass-murder, and hundreds of thousands of Hutu prisoners across Rwanda, the bombing of Kibeho, the the Rwandan economy and culture in ruins. General Paul Kagame, the repeat of Adolf Hitler, Chanceler of Germany?
H.R. 1105 prohibits funds for military training or equipment to dictatorial regimes that engage in gross and consistent human rights abuses.

African SurVivors International (ASI) has always denounced the inaccuracies in US Department yearly report. The point is that the report has always been carped about its groundless charges of RPF and General Paul Kagame criminal wrongdoings;
ASI has always whined about the hidden agenda of shadowy manipulators of U.S. foreign policy, complained about hiding the existing and real claims of RPF and General Kagame’s human rights abuses and blasted the American government for lying outright to undermine their credibility and portray them as international pariahs.
No more American taxpayer dollars should be used to train RPF human rights abusers and RPF criminals;In plain language, H.R. 1105 cuts off military assistance to the identified rogue regimes, but allows the President to waive the prohibition on a case by case basis in the national interest, provided that he notifies the Appropriations Committees of the House and the Senate (committees responsible for funding the U.S. government) 15 days in advance of his intention to do so, and supplies a “detailed description of proposed activities” justifying the waiver. Even in emergency cases, the President must notify the Appropriations Committees that he has provided military assistance to the rogue regimes “no later than 3 days after taking the action to which such notification requirement was applicable.”
No more American taxpayer dollars for RPF guns, tanks to kill innocent Congolese and Rwandan people
No military partnership with RPF thugs! Many people will no doubt be surprised by this fact, but the law is explicit and its provisions plain and unmistakable.
In short, H.R. 1105 prohibits funds for military training or equipment to dictatorial regimes that engage in gross and consistent human rights abuses. That is why General Kagame and his RPF are squealing like tuck pigs Since the FDU, Green party and PS-Imberakuli leaders started showing the Real image of the Kagame’s regime!
President’s Obama stirring speech on the future direction of U.S. foreign policy:
"...I believe with every fiber of my being that in the long run we also cannot keep this country safe unless we enlist the power of our most fundamental values. The documents that we hold in this very hall – the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights – are not simply words written into aging parchment. They are the foundation of liberty and justice in this country, and a light that shines for all who seek freedom, fairness, equality and dignity in the world".
If the United States was sincere in its effort to assist Africa in the upheaval of turmoil, misery, diseases, epidemics, and poverty which have overwhelmed many of her nations since the implementation of the slave trade, then the United States would donate and contribute more earnest monies into the development of sustaining life in Africa as opposed to sustaining African dictators in the name of fighting communism and providing this so-called stability.
Observers from the World Bank, the European Union and from United States are regularly visiting Kigali in and cannot fail to notice how the money from financial aid is being used by General Kagame to finance the purchase of arms to defend his didctatoship. Rwanda is actually being flooded with arms raise. Who will be responsible for the comming mass-slaughter? What will be the role of the US and UK governments at the UN. Despite knowing that another genocide is being planned?
***
General Paul Kagame is one of the world's most repressive dictators and a friend of friend of America. He is believed to be a tyrant, torturers, serial killer, mass killer, and a sundry dictator and a corrupt puppet-president who is being aided, supported, and rewarded handsomely for their loyalty to US interests. As most of you know, General Kagame is a bloody dictator that has seized control of Rwanda through force, a coup d’état. Then with the US aid he tried in 2003 to become a constitutional dictator, which holds office through voting fraud and severely restricted elections. He’s known to be the best puppet and apologist for the military junta which controlled in 2003 the ballot boxes in the eyes of The European and worse of that the world community observers. In any case, the majority of Rwandans has not democratically elected General Kagame. Who doesn’t know there were no fair and open elections in 2003 at that time when the Rwandan dictator had to confront his former Prime Minister F. Twagiramungu.
General Kagame is a democratic America's undemocratic ally. He has been raised to power in Rwanda through the bloody ClA-backed coup in April 6,1994 and he’s believed to rule by terror and torture using Gacaca courts, genocidal ideology and unconstitutional laws to muzzle Rwandan opponents and the Hutu majority.
There is no denying that RDF receives training and advice from the CIA, the Pentagon and other US agencies telling the American public that they want to do it for bringing peace back in Darfur. WRONG! US military aid and weapons sales often strengthen their armies and guarantee their hold on power. Unwavering "anti-communism" and a willingness to provide unhampered access for American business interests to exploit RWANDAN AND CONGOLESE natural resources REMAINS the excuses for Kagame’s repression, and the primary reason the US government supports HIM. To make it better and to make it easier, Kagame is actually linked internationally to UN peacekeeping forces and General Kagame and his RPF have strong Nazi affiliations and offers sanctuary to CIA torturers and other US military unlawful trainings in the country.
General Kagame and his Akazu among RPF criminals grow rich, while the country’s economy deteriorates and the majority of the people live in poverty (Hutus). US tax dollars and US-backed loans have made billionaire of Kagame, while Kagame remains international Coltan and other major Congolese mineral resources dealer. To make sure General Kagame has been prepared to fulfill the Pentagon wishes and US interests, he has been told he will never be called to account for His crimes committed against his own citizens and Congolese people. Unfortunately, President Obama and his Government will never be held responsible for supporting and protecting General Kagame, the worst human rights violator in the world.
The United States government was never held responsible for supporting and protecting some of the worst human rights violations in the world. At anytime that the United States government says it has a covert operation in place, American citizens should remain dubious. We must remember that in our struggle for power and glory that human rights must be adhered to and protected. Thousands of people are being killed in Rwanda and no mention about that in the US media. This is a problem that should be addressed.

[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]
Kwaigaikira, who reunited with her uncle just about two years ago, is, however, facing nationality problems as some sectors feel she should not reap from Malawian spoils.
Rwanda experienced a 100 day genocide that killed thousands and displaced more. Hutus and Tutsis fought after the then president was killed in a plane crash.
Private radio station Zodiak Broadcasting Service (ZBS) Director, Gospel Kadzako, however argued the girl has all the right to enjoy the award and be accorded a Malawian passport to travel for further studies in the Chinese metropolitan college of her choice. She wants to be a pathologist.
“Our president is the chairperson of the African Union (AU) and Rwanda is in Africa. Also considering her plight, it is important that she be awarded the scholarship. Authorities must do their best to avail her with a passport,” he said during the award ceremony.
Fifteen year old Edith Chipungu from Ludzi Girls Secondary School, 18-year old Chikondi Dimoni from St. Michaels Girls School, and Kwaigaikira from Likuni Girls Secondary School each scored one point in each subject. They all three want to venture into medicine.
Each girl was also awarded material and financial rewards. Other stakeholders pulled together MK200, 000 for each girl.
“Gender empowerment of our women should start with education. Let this be the start of more efforts to empower women and young girls,” added Kadzako.
He also bemoaned the situation where about 80% of students selected into the nursing corps have not reported for school. Government raised school fees to MK300, 000 per term. Most people in Malawi barely live on a dollar per day.
“This is a worrisome development. In future we may have only the rich from low density suburbs working as future nurses. Government must think deeply on this,” he implored.
Speaking during the same function, Chinese Ambassador to Malawi, Lin So Tian, said his government would continue awarding top performing girls.
“Education is power and key to success. We commit ourselves to provide more scholarships to best girl students. This is part of our role as a diplomatic mate to the Malawian government,” he said.
He added China will also recognize teachers and school heads whose schools produce top performers. China is also going to construct a vocational centre and some secondary schools. A university of sciences is also on the tables.
Malawi and China have been in a two year diplomatic romance after the landlocked country kicked out Taiwan.
Present at the function was guest of honour President Bingu wa Mutharika’s fiancée, Callista Chapola Chimombo who advised all girls in the country to work hard and achieve greater goals. She said educating the girl child is educating a nation.
Other dignitaries included the deputy ministers of Gender, Child and Women Development, and Information and Civic Education, non-governmental organizations representatives, and traditional leaders.

‘On The 22nd April 1995, a crowd of refugees seeking shelter from a storm was fired upon by the Rwandan Patriotic Army. The horror of what followed defies description. However, that horror provided a setting for conduct, on the part of the Australians at Kibeho, which adds lustre to the proud history of Australia’s service personnel in their country’s cause in war and peace.’
Sir William Deane, former Governor General 1996-2001
Rwanda is no stranger to violence. In 1994, an orgy of killing swept across the tiny land-locked nation and genocide, the size and magnitude unseen since the Hitler horrors of WWII, erupted. Around one million men, women and children were mercilessly shot, hacked to death or burnt alive.
To alleviate the suffering and restore order to shattered lives, a group of Australian UN peacekeepers, made up of soldiers and army medical personnel, was sent to Rwanda under a United Nations mandate. These Australians would be exposed to a lack of humanity they were not prepared for and found hard to fathom.
On 22nd April 1995, the daily horror and tragedy they had witnessed escalated out of control. At a displaced persons’ camp in Kibeho, in full view of the Australian soldiers, over 4,000 unarmed men, women and children died in a hail of bullets, grenades and machete blades at the hands of the Rwandan Patriotic Army. Constrained by the UN peacekeeping Rules of Engagement, these Australians could only watch helplessly and try to assist the wounded under the gaze of the trigger-happy killers.
Pure Massacre is a record of what happened during this peacekeeping mission. Kevin “Irish” O’Halloran, a Platoon Sergeant at the time, stresses the weaknesses of the UN charter and what happens when “good men do nothing”. He pulls together the perspectives of those Australian soldiers who served in Rwanda at this time. Pure Massacre gives a new and personal voice to the Kibeho Massacre.
Foreword written by Major General (retired) Guy Tousignant. United Nations Force Commander, UNAMIR II
It takes a special type of bravery, discipline and compassion to do what these soldiers did. Little did they know, when the second tour of Rwanda was over, that they would be the highest decorated UN peacekeeping contingent since the Korean War. For many, their service in Rwanda would come with a personal toll. No Australians died during and immediately after the massacre at Kibeho, but as Pure Massacre testifies, the suffering and tragedy is embedded in their memories.
Tousignant replaced Romeo Dallaire as Force Commander in August 1994 and also served as assistant Secretary-General of that mission.

More tightening of government control: media censorship
The Rwandan government is after the media again, this time without linking the suspension of two Kinyarwanda-language papers to any specific article or journalist.
Yesterday, Rwanda's Media High Council (MHC) suspended Umuseso and Umuvugizi for six months. This means that both papers will be unable to comment on the upcoming August presidential elections. THe MHC accused Umuseso of insulting President Kagame, inciting the army and policy to insubordination and for fear mongering among the population. There is no substantive evidence to support these accusations, nor were the charges linked to a specific published article. The government-controlled MHC suspended Umuvugizi without citing any reasons for the suspension.
Under Rwanda's new media law, passed into law in August 2009, media outlets cannot be suspended for more than two weeks.
More critically, there is no alternate source of media in Rwanda at the moment. The New Times, Rwanda's English-language daily, is the most prominent publication. It is widely believed to operate at the behest of the RPF as editorial policy is set in coordination with the MHC.
Another point for authoritarianism in post-genocide Rwanda...

Instead of commemorating lives lost in Rwanda in 1994, Rwandan President Paul Kagame, launched into a negative attack on political freedoms and opposition politics. I remain concerned about the levels of hypocrisy exhibited by the ruling RPF and its agents. They want to call the genocide the "genocide of Tutsi" but then outlaw ethnicity so what happened in 1994 cannot be openly discussed. They want to claim (to international and domestic audiences alike) that the country is democratising, but then claim that democracy leads to genocide.
This article, which summarises Kagame's memorial day speech in Kigali, is reflective of elite hypocrisy....
"Foreigners imposing 'hooligans' like Ingabire on Rwanda" by Chief Editor.
In a 45-minute tirade, President Kagame fired at Ingabire, the west and the Generals.
"They call me Hitler... but I'm not bothered"
Kigali - President Paul Kagame on Wednesday accused foreign critics of trying to impose values on Rwanda as well as preferring 'hooligans' to govern the country -categorically singling-out opposition politician Ms. Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza, RNA reports.
In a fierry 45-minute address to mark the 16th anniversary of the 1994 Tutsi Genocide, Mr. Kagame accused the opposition - specifically naming Ms. Ingabire in person, of "political hooliganism". The President also accused the critics of "abusing me" in the name of freedom of expression, but said he is "not bothered at
all".
"Some people here want to encouraging political hooliganism," he said in English, before going into a tirade of attacks on Ingabire, as the crowd behind him was in onstant applause.
"Some people just come from nowhere...useless people...I see every time in pictures some lady who had her deputy - a Genocide criminal, talking about 'there is Genocide but there is another'...that is politics...and the world is also saying 'the opposition leader'..."
The President was referring to Mr. Joseph Ntawangundi, the aide to Ms. Ingabire who was recently sentenced to 17 years for Genocide.
"They call me Hitler"
In a culmination with loud applause and clapping from the audience, President added: "To that we say a big no. And if anybody wants a fight, then we will give them a fight".
The President dismissed the notion of free expression as promoted by his foreign critics such as campaign groups, saying Rwandans know what freedom means more than anybody else can teach them. He also attacked those he described as "constantly meddling in our politics" by propagating and making up "lies" about his government.The President warned his critics of hiding behind freedom of express to "abuse me" but also added that he does not "give a damn".
"They break tool, they call me Hitler...am not bothered at all...I just hold them in contempt," he said amid more applause. He wondered how his critics attack him and "at the same time complain about press freedom?"
"You are even free to abuse people, you have no respect for anything...and you turn around to complain that you have no freedom to express yourself? ...What more do you want to express about yourself or about others?"
"Ni watu gani awo?"
Mr. Kagame said "bad national politics converged with bad international politics" to cause what was being commemorated at today April 07 for the next three months.
"Who are these giving anyone here lessons honestly? ...Ni watu gani awo? ...who are these? ...are these Rwandans complaining? ...or have they sent you to complain on their behalf? ..." he wondered in a mixture of English, Kinyarwanda and Swahili, amid applause.
He added: "These Rwandans you see here and elsewhere are as free, as happy [and] as proud of themselves, like they have never been in their lives."
The President accused the west of preferring to criticize his government but do not want to be held responsible for their role in the Genocide. He also said the west was undermining "our dignity", "our values" and "our pride", arguing that democracy took time to get to the current level in their countries.
"They wake up in the morning, distort [the] situation, tell lies about everything...plus they are responsible for many of the things that put here today to commemorate this Genocide...," he said.
"...yet when they talk about freedom of expression, they don't want you to express yourself about their responsibility in this Genocide...What freedoms are you teaching me if you cant take responsibility for the politics that killed one million people in Rwanda."
The Generals He added: "I know those who say it and support that, know it is wrong. But [it] is an expression of contempt these people have for Rwandans and for Africans...that they think Africans deserve to be led by these hooligans."
Turning his guns on the government officials who are fleeing the country apparently complaining about "no political space", the President accused them of "running away from accountability".
"These Generals fleeing the country should not be taken seriously," he said, in apparent reference to ex-army chief Gen. Kayumba Nyamwasa, who has political asylum in South Africa.
Earlier, Sports and Culture Minister Joseph Habineza also attacked the man behind the Hollywood movie 'Hotel Rwanda'. Mr. Habineza did not name Mr. Paul Rusesabagina but was clearly referring to him.
Using poetic speech, the Minister also fired at the vocal opposition causing laughter in the otherwise somber occasion, saying they are blocking the reconciliation among Rwandans.

"...yet when they talk about freedom of expression, they don't want you to express yourself about their responsibility in this Genocide...What freedoms are you teaching me if you cant take responsibility for the politics that killed one million people in Rwanda."
The Generals He added: "I know those who say it and support that, know it is wrong. But [it] is an expression of contempt these people have for Rwandans and for Africans...that they think Africans deserve to be led by these hooligans."
Turning his guns on the government officials who are fleeing the country apparently complaining about "no political space", the President accused them of "running away from accountability".
"These Generals fleeing the country should not be taken seriously," he said, in apparent reference to ex-army chief Gen. Kayumba Nyamwasa, who has political asylum in South Africa.
Earlier, Sports and Culture Minister Joseph Habineza also attacked the man behind the Hollywood movie 'Hotel Rwanda'. Mr. Habineza did not name Mr. Paul Rusesabagina but was clearly referring to him.
Using poetic speech, the Minister also fired at the vocal opposition causing laughter in the otherwise somber occasion, saying they are blocking the reconciliation among Rwandans.

Rwanda Genocide: Honoring the Dead without Honoring the Lies
http://www.fogcityjournal.com/wordpress/2010/04/rwanda-genocide-honoring-the-dead-without-honoring-the-lies/
I published this article in Fog City Journal, which is read by San Francisco's powerful, Democratic, political elite, and by many of the rest of us out here in the cheap seats. I considered getting this piece into FCJ, along with a link to last week's KPFA Radio News about the 16th anniversary of the Rwanda Genocide a local victory in the battle for consciousness about Rwanda the wider war in the Great Lakes Region of Africa.
The San Francisco Bay Area consumes more of Rwanda/Congo's resources than the Rwandan and Congolese people. That's a no-brainer. All one need do is consider the defense and electronics industries clustered here, before considering all the cars, oil and natural gas, diamonds and gold, and more. All the hybrid cars and the natural gas power plants need cobalt.

Whoever lost his relative in the RPF attack became automatically the enemy No 1 of General Paul Kagame and his RPF.

All of them died/got assassinated while being acting presidents. All of them got assassinated by the same killer or in complicity with Him.Who is that serial killer? Who is that mass-killer? Who killed and mass-murdered MILLIONS of innocent Rwandans beginning October 1,1990?

...RPF terrorism, RPF impunity, US, UK and Belgium's blind support for the Kagame genocidal policies led to the Rwandan genocide.

En cette journée où le Rwanda et la communauté internationale commémore le génocide rwandais, point de départ de grands bouleversements et de grandes turbulences en Afrique centrale, et en cette période durant laquelle la diplomatie française s’illustre par une offensive tous azimuts pour un rapprochement spectaculaire avec le Rwanda , l’Alliance des Patriotes pour la Refondation du Congo (APARECO) lance un appel solennel à la classe politique française pour que la France ne tombe pas dans le piège de la manipulation et ne se retrouve classée malgré elle, parmi ceux que la vérité inaltérable de l’Histoire considérera comme les complices de ceux qui ont conçu ou continuent à pratiquer des massacres à grande échelle dans la région des Grands Lacs.

During the week of March 1-12, 2010, several women from the D.R. Congo came to New York to participate at the United Nations 54th Commission on the Status of Women. This is a high level annual international Women’s Forum. The Congolese women represented both government and non-government sectors as well as different provinces of their country. They had ample opportunity to raise their concerns to the gathering during assembly, speak to United Nations officials, policy-makers, members of the New York civil society and community, as well as key members of President Obama’s administration.
The women came with a singular focus, to articulate how Congolese women felt the global community could best address the fourteen-year conflict in the D.R. Congo. Wherever the women ventured, whether it was a community forum in Harlem, gathering at local churches, forums at the United Nations or meetings with Obama administration officials, they articulated a consistent and resolute message. Listen to the Congolese for a change: as “we have repeatedly shared with the international community how they can optimally participate in bringing an end to the geo-strategic resource war in the Congo.”

Western based Think Tanks, humanitarian institutions and policy makers often argue that they have tried everything to bring an end to the conflict. However, a cursory look at the policies that have been prescribed or implemented reveals that almost every policy option tried, has avoided core grassroots women recommendations. Policies implemented by the international community are marked by a reluctance to pressure U.S. and British allies Rwanda, led by Paul Kagame and Uganda, headed by Yoweri Museveni. Also, in spite of the myriad United Nations studies, there has been deadly silence around the role of western mining interests in the perpetuation of the conflict.
The Congolese women shared the following prescriptions to bring an end to the conflict:
- Call for an Inter-Rwandan dialogue between Rwanda’s Tutsi leadership and Hutu rebels inside Congo. There are no military solutions to what is essentially a political crisis.
- Opening and expansion of democratic space inside both Rwanda and Uganda so their internal conflicts will cease being fought on the bodies of Congolese women.
- Greater participation in political life and the decision-making process on the part of Congolese women.
- Redirection of focus on the part of the global community from targeting the symptoms or effects of the conflict to addressing the root causes - primarily a foreign resource war being waged inside Congo to the detriment of innocent civilians.

I am Jean-Christophe Nizeyimana, an Economist, Content Manager, and EDI Expert, driven by a passion for human rights activism. With a deep commitment to advancing human rights in Africa, particularly in the Great Lakes region, I established this blog following firsthand experiences with human rights violations in Rwanda and in the DRC (formerly Zaïre) as well. My journey began with collaborations with Amnesty International in Utrecht, the Netherlands, and with human rights organizations including Human Rights Watch and a conference in Helsinki, Finland, where I was a panelist with other activists from various countries.
My mission is to uncover the untold truth about the ongoing genocide in Rwanda and the DRC. As a dedicated voice for the voiceless, I strive to raise awareness about the tragic consequences of these events and work tirelessly to bring an end to the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF)'s impunity.
This blog is a platform for Truth and Justice, not a space for hate. I am vigilant against hate speech or ignorant comments, moderating all discussions to ensure a respectful and informed dialogue at African Survivors International Blog.
Genocide masterminded by RPF
Finally the well-known Truth Comes Out.
After suffering THE LONG years, telling the world that Kagame and his RPF criminal organization masterminded the Rwandan genocide that they later recalled Genocide against Tutsis. Our lives were nothing but suffering these last 32 years beginning from October 1st, 1990 onwards. We are calling the United States of America, United Kingdom, Japan, and Great Britain in particular, France, Belgium, Netherlands and Germany to return to hidden classified archives and support Honorable Tito Rutaremara's recent statement about What really happened in Rwanda before, during and after 1994 across the country and how methodically the Rwandan Genocide has been masterminded by Paul Kagame, the Rwandan Hitler. Above all, Mr. Tito Rutaremara, one of the RPF leaders has given details about RPF infiltration methods in Habyarimana's all instances, how assassinations, disappearances, mass-slaughters across Rwanda have been carried out from the local autority to the government,fabricated lies that have been used by Gacaca courts as weapon, the ICTR in which RPF had infiltrators like Joseph Ngarambe, an International court biased judgments & condemnations targeting Hutu ethnic members in contraversal strategy compared to the ICTR establishment to pursue in justice those accountable for crimes between 1993 to 2003 and Mapping Report ignored and classified to protect the Rwandan Nazis under the RPF embrella . NOTHING LASTS FOREVER.

Everything happens for a reason
Bad things are going to happen in your life, people will hurt you, disrespect you, play with your feelings.. But you shouldn't use that as an excuse to fail to go on and to hurt the whole world. You will end up hurting yourself and wasting your precious time. Don't always think of revenging, just let things go and move on with your life. Remember everything happens for a reason and when one door closes, the other opens for you with new blessings and love.
Hutus didn't plan Tutsi Genocide
