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

Christophe Munzihirwa, Archbishop in Bukavu until his assassination by Paul Kagame's thugs in 1996, witnessed RPF crimes from very close range from 1994 to 1996 and informed the world:
Let me remind the readers that Paul Kagame is responsable for counter-genocide in Congo, as reported for example by Newsweek in 2003:
The funeral of Monsignor Emmanuel Kataliko [© Associated Press/LaPresse
"For years, Rwanda mercilessly pursued Hutu refugees on the run in Congo. This campaign, still ongoing in some areas, amounted to a counter-genocide, but the World was unwilling or unable to stop it. During the overthrow of Mobutu in 1996, Rwandan troops systematically went to Congolese villages killing all the Hutus they could find. They massacred as many as 350,000 Hutu refugees, former U.S.
Assistant Secretary of State Herman Cohen estimates.
"The embarrassed USA and Great Britain are seeking a way out but are worried the removal of Kagame may interfere with the peace process in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) or lead to another genocide in Rwandan and Eastern DRC" a Western diplomat in Kinshasa told AfroAmerica Network.
When all hell broke loose in 1996, the invasion of Congo by Rwandan troops disguised as Congolese rebels, Christophe Munzihirwa was archbishop in Bukavu . The representatives of the UNHCR had left Bukavu when it became clear that the attack by RPF troops was imminent, leaving Christophe Munzihirwa behind. Together with Spanish missionaries hee stood by refugees until 29 october 1996, the day he was Assassinated. Joseph Mukabalera has written a thesis on Christophe Munzihirwa work for refugees in Bukavu 1994 to 1996 at the ULB (Université Libre de Bruxelles). On wikipedia we read:
The night of his assassination, he had helped two tutsi trappist sisters to a place where they felt safe. The humanitarian and moral support by the Archbishop to Rwandan refugees from 1994 to 1996 had attracted the wrath of the RPF government in Rwanda against the catholic priests and brotherhoods of the DRC. This explains why Bishop Munzihirwa and Spanish missionaries were the first target of an armed commando when the town of Bukavu and the Hutu refugee camps were attacked."
Paul Kagame's RPF systematic assassinations of catholic priests in the DRC reminds us of the horrific crimes by Russia's communist revolutionaries in 1918
Those who claim peace in the great lakes region is served by revolutionaries like Paul Kagame have taken a wrong exit at some point. I am amazed that a Republican like James Inhofe supports a guy that has more revolutionary credentials then Che Guevara or Fidel Castro combined.
Or is it that liberal and anti-christian journalists like Alex Perry did not care about the fact that Catholic priests were butchered by Paul Kagame in Congo? That could be an explanation why Christophe Munzihirwa won't pop up in articles about Congo in English media.
Josh Trevino, co-founder of Redstate, Chuck Devore's campaign manager (Republican) recently twittered: "It's probably past time for Paul Kagame to go". As Huckabee blogger during the primaries, I fully agree! Which reminds me of Mike's words when he made his candidacy official in New Hampshire:
"what makes this a great country is when its citizens take their responsibility seriously as citizens, and stand not because of the outcome but because of their hearts, their souls and what they truely believe is important for America."
Exactedly, that's what makes a country great, when citizens stand up, like Archbishop Christophe Munzihirwa, for what they truely believe in.

MJPC exhorte le gouvernement congolais et ses alliés militaires étrangers à mener des opérations militaires qui prennent en compte le devoir de protéger les civils. La déclaration a été publiée à l'issue d'un nouveau rapport de l'Office des Nations Unies pour la coordination des affaires humanitaires (OCHA), qui signale de nouveaux cas de meurtre, pillages, viols, et d'autres violations des droits humains parmi les personnes déplacées.
Le bras humanitaire des Nations Unies a signalé que, selon les autorités congolaises locales, près de 90.000 personnes ont été déracinées de leurs maisons suite à une récente opération militaire lancée par l'armée congolaise (FARDC) contre les combattants associés au groupe rebelle ougandais connu sous le nom démocratique des Forces démocratiques alliées - Armée nationale de libération de l'Ouganda (ADF/NALU) dans le territoire de Beni, province du Nord Kivu.En dépit du nombre alarmant de nouvelles personnes déplacées dans le besoin urgent de nourriture, abris, eau et soins de santé, le gouvernement congolais n'a pas encore pris de mesures concretes pour fournir les populations déplacées une protection et des assistances adéquates.

Don't think that this is history. It is not. It is happening right here, and it's happening right now in Rwanda. 
It involved a large-scale purge of the RPF political party and the RPF government officials, repression of the Hutu community from intellectuals to peasants, the RPF leadership, and the persecution of the Tutsi democrates, characterized by the RPF widespread police surveillance, widespread suspicion of "genocide deniers", disapperarances, imprisonment following the campaign of Hutu intellectuals by Kagame's permanent free labor force "Gacaca", torture in prison, RPF secret services terror and intimidations, executions and mass-murder. Every single day, the Hutu prisoners are made to lie face down and beaten on the soles of their feet and their spine with a rubber strap.
Commonwealth to monitor Rwanda's 2010 election? Which election, a one-man-show?
Number of people executed:Since 2003, Kagame dispatches th elocal defense forces throughout the country and proceed to execute hundred thousands of having ties with the FDLR or acused of carrying out the genocidal ideology. Many are subsequently shot dead .
My brother Kyomuhendo-Ateenyi posted on his face book wall a link to a profile of Gen. Kagame of Rwanda who is milking life from all Rwandans who attempt not to think like him. On following this link; http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/world/africa/10479882.stm , the BBC story shocked me by the level of repression being practiced in Rwanda. The story lists the individuals that have been assassinated or harassed for opposing Kagame. I will adopt the list as it is;
◦1995: Journalist Manasse Mugabo disappears in Kigali; not seen again
◦1996: First post-genocide Interior Minister Seth Sendashonga and businessman Augustin Bugirimfura shot dead in Nairobi
◦1998: Journalist Emmanuel Munyemanzi disappears from Kigali; body spotted in city but not returned to family
◦1998: RPF MP and government intelligence chief before the genocide Theoneste Lizinde assassinated in Nairobi
◦2000: First post-genocide President Pasteur Bizimungu’s adviser, Asiel Kabera, shot dead in Kigali
◦2003: EX-RPF officer and top judge Augustin Cyiza and magistrate Eliezar Runyaruka disappear from Kigali; not seen again
◦2003: Opposition MP Leonard Hitimana disappears from Kigali; not seen again
◦2010: Ex-RPF officer Faustin Kayumba Nyamwasa shot and wounded in Johannesburg
◦2010: Journalist Jean-Leonard Rugambage gunned down in Kigali
◦2010: Reporter Dominique Makeli survives abduction in Kampala

In May, Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs Johnnie Carson announced that the U.S. government plans to send a dozen teams of election observers to Rwanda before the Aug. 9 polls, but many Rwandans now say they will only be wasting U.S. taxpayers’ money.
“There is no reason to vote if you don’t have a choice.” – Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza
“Why do people seriously think of going there to observe elections?” asked Charles Kambanda, an American of Rwandan origin, former member of Kagame’s RPF Party and former professor at Makarere University in Kampala, Uganda. “Which elections are they going to observe? There is nothing to be observed, because what we have is a one-man show. What we have is a situation where the government has created the so-called opposition.
In this pre-1997 map, Congo is shown as Zaire.“The RPF has kicked out all the real opposition leaders. They are either under house arrest, like Ms. Victoire Ingabire, or in prison like Me Ntaganda Bernard or they are already dead or they are in exile.”
“Foreign election observers planning to go to Rwanda to observe the ‘election’ this August are wasting time and money,” said Aimable Mugara. “I would recommend that they stay in their countries and write their reports based on all the insane actions Gen. Kagame’s ruling party has taken since the beginning of this year, actions that make this so-called election null and void.”
The United States government has provided not only election observers but also over $1,034,000,000 in United States taxpayer-funded foreign assistance to Rwanda since 2000. An additional $240,200,000 is proposed in the president’s fiscal year 2011 budget.
Purge of the the intellectuals: most of them accused of gencide ideology. Widespread arrests and arbitrary executions of the Hutu intellectuals. Many books and writings were destroyed (large numbers were burnt) to make easier the re-writing of the Rwandan History. RPF deputy chair Tito Rutaremara and Antoine Mugesera have ordered the destructions of all books contrary to the RPF ideology and Kagame'scenario of the chronological events of the Rwandan History.
Political Repression in Rwanda: Widespread Arrests of Journalists and Opposition Politicians
Many are imprisoned and 1,500died in prisons and 8,000 to 21,000 in concentration camps. Repression and Terror: Kagame in Control as he said nobody can't make a coup d'Etat. Kagame set the stage for gaining absolute power by employing police repression against opposition elements within the RPF organization. The machinery of coercion had previously been used only against Hutus, not against RPF members themselves. We saw execution of the interior Tutsi and recently the attempt of assassination of the General kayumba nyamwasa, ....who are expelled from the party.
Paul Kagame eliminates all likely potential opposition to his leadership and is the unchallenged leader accross the country. Nevertheless, he proceeds to purge the RPF rank and file and to terrorize the entire country with widespread arrests and executions. During the ensuing Great Terror, which includes the notorious show trials of General Nyamwasa and reaches its peak recently, millions of innocent Hutu Rwandans are actually sent off to labor camps or killed in prison.
Since 1994, Kagame manages to bring both the RPF and the public to a state of complete submission to his rule. The RPF regime is so atomized and the people so fearful of reprisals that mass arrests are no longer necessary. General Kagame rules as absolute dictator of Rwanda throughout 1994-2009.
Other victims are nobility and political and academic figures, along with some ordinary Hutu ethnic menbers. Mass graves containing hundreds of executed Hutus monks and civilians are discovered daily in different places.
Condition for "confessing"
The wide purge :
Although the trials of Hutu intellectuals are widely publicized, the hundreds of thousands of other arrests and executions are not reported to the public opinion.
Kagame is personally and intimately involved in the RPF terror against the Rwandan Hutu and interior Tutsis. The arrested are accused of conspiring with the terrorist groups namely FDLR and the genocide deniers to assassinate Kagame and other RPF leaders, dismember the RPF government and restore the democratic regime.
We have a duty to act. The international community could wait no longer to achieve peace, end tragedy in Rwanda, and fight the RPF terrorism. “We can wait no longer.”
Mass graves and memorials.
United Nations soldiers believe they have uncovered mass graves in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), where hundreds of civilians executed by Rwandan soldiers were buried.
The discovery of those mass graves of the assassinated of Hutu refugees did not destroy Rwanda's image as a country that recovered from genocide to become one of east Africa's most benign and stable regimes.
These mass graves, the largest of their kind so far found in the region, are expected to provide evidence of the atrocities carried out by the Rwandan army and put international pressure on the Rwandan and Congolese governments to investigate the killings.
JUSTICE, TRUTH SEEKING, PEACE LOVING PEOPLE OF THE GREATLAKES REGION OF EAST AND CENTRAL AFRICA, AND ALL WELL WISHERS LIVING IN THE UNITED KINGDOM; IT IS YOUR TURN TO COME OUT AND BE COUNTED!
Rwanda's Tutsi-led government is oppressing Hutus in throughout Rwanda and in the neighboring Uganda and the ethnic divisions that sparked Rwanda's 1994 genocide have re-emerged.
"They squeezed my neck attempting to strangle me. I pretended that I was dead," he said. "They moved a short distance from me and one of them made a phone call."
Speaking in Rwanda's Kinyarwanda language, the attacker reported that Uwimana was dead, and "they should send a vehicle to take away my dead body."

[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), mass-arrests and mass-murder by the RPF criminal organization.
So long as justice and accountability for RPF past and current crimes are ignored and delayed, Peace and Stability will remain illusive and impossible in Rwanda=>ASIF]

BRUTAL REGIMES: Apocalypse in Central Africa: Ongoing repression, war crimes, and U.S. involvement

President Obama said, in his 2009 speech in Accra, Ghana, that America should support strong institutions and not strong men. However, in the case of Rwanda, this has been no more than rhetoric. Rwandans, like most Africans, cheered Obama’s election, hoping that it might signal a new, more peaceful and cooperative relationship between the U.S. and Africa, but Obama has expanded AFRICOM, the U.S. Africa Command, and now he remains silent as Rwanda’s strongman, President Paul Kagame, prepares a sham presidential election to retain his brutal grip on power.
On Aug. 3, in Washington D.C., we, Africa advocates, will gather at the National Press Club to call on President Obama and the U.S. State Department not to recognize the legitimacy of Rwanda’s upcoming Aug. 9 election results and to stop militarizing Africa and supporting repressive regimes.
“The U.S. policy has been to support strongmen,” says Maurice Carney, executive director of Friends of the Congo. “And at the head of the class is Paul Kagame, who has received military support, weapons, training and intelligence and as a result has been able to invade Rwanda's neighbor, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and sustain proxy militia fighting there to rob the Congolese people of their natural resources. He has contributed to the death of over 6 million people in Congo and to the destabilization of Africa’s whole Great Lakes region.”

The American free press and mainstream media are culpable for ignoring this grievous attack on the press and the opposition. The situation in Rwanda should be a prominent part of the current news cycle.

(Kampala) - The Burundian authorities should release Jean Claude Kavumbagu, a journalist arrested on treason charges on July 17, 2010, the Committee to Protect Journalists, the East and Horn of Africa Human Rights Defenders Project, and Human Rights Watch said today. The arrest violates his right to free expression, the groups said. Burundi : Government cancels work of Human Rights Watch Researcher.
Rona Peligal, Africa director
Kavumbagu, editor of the online news service Net Press, is believed to have been arrested for a July 12 article in which he criticized Burundi's security forces and questioned their ability to defend the country against attack. The article was in response to the July 11 bombings in Kampala, Uganda and threats from the Somali insurgent group al-Shabaab to target Burundi because of the presence of Burundian troops in the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM).
"Kavumbagu's arrest is a big step backward for freedom of expression in Burundi," said Rona Peligal, Africa director at Human Rights Watch. "His continued detention and prosecution will have a chilling effect, sending a message that no criticism of the security forces is tolerated. The charges should be dropped immediately."
In the article, Kavumbagu wrote that, "the anxiety has been palpable in Bujumbura and all those who have heard about [the bombings] yesterday in Kampala were convinced that if the al-Shabaab militants wanted to try ‘something' in our country, they would succeed with disconcerting ease, [given that] our defense and security forces shine in their capacity to pillage and kill their compatriots rather than defend our country.
The authorities charged Kavumbagu with treason under article 570 of Burundi's criminal code, which penalizes "any Burundian who, in times of war... knowingly participates in an attempt to demoralize the Army or the Nation, with the object of weakening national defense." The penalty for treason is life in prison.

*Democratic governments, international organizations, and nongovernmental organizations poorly respond to the build-up of the bloody dictatorship in Rwanda.
Foreign threat :Machiavelli in action.
- Great Britain - Stay away from Rwandans, GB backs the crual dictator in Rwanda because Kagame will help British interests in the short term
- The biased British media's reporting on Rwanda
- Bill Clinton/Tony Blair's continually interfering in the Rwandan political process,this inevitably will end in trouble
- Stop selling arms to Kagame and to RPF government, doing so you're creating the very conditions of consumming Kagame's unfinished Rwandan genocide.
- I am in Captivity due to Kagame's protection by US and UK
General Kagame still plays an important political and military role to the detriment of the Civil and Human Rights of millions of oppressed Rwandans.

"We have urged the Government of Rwanda and all regional and international partners to work together to achieve free, fair, and peaceful elections that the people of Rwanda deserve," Carson went on.
"We appreciate, in the context of the most tragic event in recent history -the genocide - the need for security, stability, and reconciliation is critical. But long-term stability is best promoted by democratic governance and respect for human rights," Carson said.
