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

[Since 1994, the world witnesses the horrifying Tutsi minority (14%) ethnic domination, the Tutsi minority ethnic rule with an iron hand, tyranny and corruption in Rwanda. The current government has been characterized by the total impunity of RPF criminals, the Tutsi economic monopoly, the Tutsi militaristic domination, and the brutal suppression of the rights of the majority of the Rwandan people (85% are Hutus)and mass arrests of Hutus by the RPF criminal organization =>AS International]
Rwanda’s Entrenched President
“But I do
not think our aim is to have a president for life, nor is it what I would
want,” Mr. Kagame said. “Sooner, rather than later, this office will be
transferred from one person to another in a manner that will serve a purpose,
not merely set an example, whether for ourselves or others.”
Those words
ring hollow. Mr. Kagame seems intent on staying in power indefinitely. Since he
took the reins of this small east African country after the Rwandan genocide in
1994, he has become increasingly authoritarian, cracking down on freedom of
expression and making it impossible for political opponents to organize.
 |
| Paul Kagame A criminal Still President Enjoying impunity |
He is among
the leaders President Obama had in mind during a trip to Africa last year, when
he proclaimed that “Africa doesn’t need strongmen.” Term limits have become a
contentious issue on the continent in recent years. President Pierre Nkurunziza
of Burundi caused a crisis last year by pressing for a third term. In Burkina
Faso, a similar attempt by Blaise Compaoré in 2014 inspired protests that
ultimately forced him to flee the country.
Rwanda’s
situation is unique. American officials were not terribly optimistic that Mr.
Kagame would cede power this year, not least because he faces the prospect of
being prosecuted for war crimes at some point in the future. But they
nonetheless have continued to criticize him for his authoritarian style.
Mr.
Kagame’s record is mixed, and some of his accomplishments have earned him
praise in the international community. Under his watch, Rwanda, which was
devastated by the bloodletting in 1994, has become one of the safest countries
in the region and its economy has grown steadily in recent years. The nation’s
gross domestic product has grown between 7 and 8 percent per year since 2003,
significantly reducing he number of impoverished Rwandans.
But those
gains have come as government critics have been unlawfully detained and forced
into exile. Some have been killed in custody. In its most recent annual human
rights report, the State Department last year noted an increase in “politically
motivated abductions” in Rwanda and said that local human rights groups had
stopped investigating such cases as a result of government pressure.
Mr.
Kagame’s international champions include former President Bill Clinton, former
Prime Minister Tony Blair of Britain and Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates. Like
many international leaders, they have been heartened by the remarkable progress
Rwanda has made since 1994. They should, however, acknowledge and speak out
against the government’s continuing abuses. To ignore them simply because they
play out largely out of sight does nothing for the liberties of Rwanda’s
citizens or the health of its politics.

On Friday, December 18, the African Union authorized sending 5,000 peacekeepers to Burundi to protect civilians caught up in what reports are saying is the worst violence in the most recent move there towards civil war. More than 400 people have been killed in what is described by Reuters and others as escalating violence, and what the United Nations has called a campaign of repression.
We know that our next guest has long followed the history and more recent developments in that region of the world, and we turn now to him for his analysis of the situation. Glen Ford is executive editor and founder of Black Agenda Report, and is back again with us here for his Ford Report. Glen, welcome back to the Real News.
 |
| GLEN FORD |
GLEN FORD: Thanks for having me.
BALL: So Glen, please catch us up and tell us what you make of all these recent developments.
FORD: Well, Kwame Nkrumah should be turning over in his grave. I think we see history in the making, because it appears that the United States has succeeded in making the African Union into an instrument of U.S. foreign policy.
The African Union's decision, it just came up with this decision recently, to send 5,000 troops to the small nation of Burundi, whether Burundi's elected government likes it or not. This represents the first time that the AU has sent soldiers into a country without permission. Burundi's president, Nkurunziza, calls this an invasion, and he says that he will resist an invasion. Those casualties that you were talking about over a period of months in Burundi are really not high at all by Great Lakes standards. There's been a great deal of violence in this region. Genocide, not just in Rwanda. Not just in the Congo. But also in Burundi, in very recent years. So these numbers that they're reporting, and claiming that it represents some kind of danger to the nation's stability, are really not on a scale that would warrant this kind of unprecedented move by the AU.
 |
| Kagame, The Rwandan bloody dictator still president of Rwanda |
Kagame just held a phony referendum that would allow him to stay in office until the year 2034, and that seems to be all right with Washington. He claims that he got 98 percent of the vote in that referendum. And if you believe that then you will believe anything. Burundi's president, Nkurunziza, on the other hand, is only seeking a third term. And he can make a reasonable claim that he deserves a third term in office. But the U.S. says no, no, no, he's got to go.
Remember, that is how Paul Kagame came to power in Rwanda in the early '90s. And what resulted from his invasion of Rwanda? A genocide. Any attack by these refugees who are being armed by Rwanda or an invasion by the African Union could set off a new round of real bloodletting in Burundi, in which hundreds of thousands died in the early years of the 21st century and in the 1990s. However, just like elsewhere in the world, the United States is more intent upon regime change. And it doesn't care how many Africans die in the process. And now it appears that the African Union itself, which Kwame Nkrumah envisioned as an instrument for the sovereignty, the protection of the African continent, that the AU itself is now an instrument of imperial policy.
BALL: Well, certainly the AU is not the organization of African unity and the pan-African and scientific, socialist vision that Nkrumah had. But I am wondering, also, if you could just quickly tell us a little bit about what is--you've mentioned the United States. But what are some of the other factors and players in the background encouraging this violence, and what are the two states themselves claiming, both Rwanda and Burundi, and then internally what is Burundi claiming are the actual reasons for this civil war? And if there's a way to work into your answer--because I know that this is a part of it--what factor does the Congo play in all of this as well?
FORD: Well, the Congo is the source of Rwanda's vaunted prosperity. Rwanda is held up as a model for the rest of Africa in terms of its economic success. But as anybody who knows anything about the region can tell you, Rwanda's success is predicated upon the theft of resources from the very--its very rich neighbor, the Congo. And the theft of those resources was the purpose of the Rwandan invasion of the Congo, lasting decades, that resulted in 6 million dead.
So Kagame believes himself to be the savior and salvation of all the Tutsis in the region, and of course he would be, be causing trouble for a Hutu leader in Burundi. He needs no more excuse than that. He also prospers when other countries in the, in the Great Lakes region do not, because he becomes the party that does most of the trade in the region.
The United States props him up because Kagame contributes soldiers any time the United States needs them anywhere in Africa. Either for so-called peacekeeping missions or in more unilateral U.S. efforts to make sure that only people who are friendly to U.S. policy remain in power and with their heads.
FORD: Thank you.
BALL: And thank you for joining us here at the Real News. And for all involved, again, I'm Jared Ball here in Baltimore, saying as Fred Hampton used to say, to you we say peace if you're willing to fight for it. So peace, everybody, and we'll catch you in the whirlwind.

Once
again, taking the occasion of the start of the New Year 2016, we call
upon all Rwandans, all Rwandan and victims and survivors living in
all corners of the world to come together for the common good of
Rwandans and the future generation.
Let us strengthen the call for the UN Security Council to establish the International Court for RPF Crimes and prosecute all crimes committed by Paul Kagame and RPF inside Rwanda and out of it in accordance with the International law.
Let us strengthen the call for the UN Security Council to establish the International Court for RPF Crimes and prosecute all crimes committed by Paul Kagame and RPF inside Rwanda and out of it in accordance with the International law.
Let’s
unite against Kagame’s dirty game overplaying the ethnic card, let us
unite against all acts of Kagame’s ongoing tyranny and despotism,
arrests, imprisonment of political opponents to silence them, murders
and mass-murders, mass-rape, inequality, injustice, corruption etc. As
we all want to see a developed Rwanda with strong democratic
institutions, it is impossible to reach such notable goals under the
reign of utter negligence, repression of fundamentals of individual and
group rights.
The
establishment of a Truth and Reconciliation Commission, inspired by the
process that took place in South Africa, should allow us to develop an
appropriate understanding of past injustices and to envision
constructive remedies to create a new regional culture of fairness,
equal opportunity and prosperity to all Rwandans
Even though Kagame gets support about his misleading socio-cultural, political and Economic Indicators on Rwanda, there is much work to do to find out better indicators (2000 Rwandan fake census being the primary misleading indicator) and NOT those based on misleading information on Rwanda.
We strongly believe that the scourge of bad governance is a hindrance to our social and economic progress and change is long overdue as status of our country in most indicators continued to deteriorate.
Consequently
we repeat our call to the RPF ruling party in Rwanda to immediately
open up the political space for the oppositions, release the would-be
president of Rwanda Ms. Ingabire Victoire, and all political prisoners and cease from harassing, intimidating and
arresting and assassinating of journalists, opposition members and
leaders.- Immediate and unconditional release of Ms. Ingabire Victoire, the Would-be President of Rwanda. Her detention is illegal. Paul KAGAME's government has no legal basis to keep her in jail after the expiration of the ordinance.
- Kagame should refrain organized ethnic cleansing and mass murder inside Rwanda and in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) by prejudicing the Hutu as FDLR and thus terrorist organization.
- General Kagame should refrain crimes of RPF death squads inside Rwanda, in Democratic Republic of the Congo, in neighboring countries and throughought the world.
- African SurViVors insist on the review of the collected information about permanent perpetrators of assassinations, mass-rape and mass-murder in DRC given the fact that Kagame is believed to use his battalion under Col. Mugabo RDF commander to rape and kill before shifting the crimes on FDLR armed group and most of the cases, victims are Hutu children and women.
- As the UN mapping Report is now known to public, the deportation of Hutu Rwandans by the Ugandan, Congolese governments into the hands of the RPF criminals is an criminal act that should be brought to justice as it has always led to the deaths of thousands of returnees from this community including a significant degree of UNHCR support and involvement.
- Respect of the Rwandan Genocide that makes clear circumstances in
which the mass-murder of Tutsi, Hutu and Twa ethnic members were done in
accordance with Paul Kagame's plan, the mastermind’s plan of the
Rwandan Genocide.
Happy New Year 2016

Communiqué de presse du 2 décembre 2015
Nous sommes personnellement mis en cause par un ensemble d’articles de presse simultanément parus le 1er décembre 2015, à propos d’événements tragiques survenus fin juin 1994, alors que débutait l’opération Turquoise.
Ces faits font l’objet depuis onze ans d’une instruction conduite par la justice française à l’instigation de divers acteurs. Chacun pour sa part, nous avons toujours exprimé notre volonté de témoigner et de collaborer pleinement avec la justice, pour mettre enfin un terme à des accusations aussi invraisemblables que monstrueuses de « complicité de génocide », alors même que l’opération Turquoise a protégé des centaines de milliers de personnes de la violence et permis de sauver a minima des dizaines de milliers de vies tutsies.
Nous tenons à dénoncer avec la plus grande fermeté la reconstruction mensongère des faits, la dénaturation des pièces de la procédure pénale et l’articulation fallacieuse des témoignages contenues dans ces articles de presse. Contrairement à ce qui est affirmé, tous les documents évoqués ont été déclassifiés par le gouvernement et sont en possession de la justice depuis des années.

Les FDLR condamnent les attaques contre réfugiés rwandais et Congolais par les Forces Rwandaises de Défense
Many thousands of Rwandan refugees and Congolese civilian population have fled their homes, some have been killed and many hundreds are wounded in WALIKALE, IKOBO territory, localities of MARUHO, MINGO, KIMUNA, MITAKARA, MISAU, HEMBE, MISAMBO, KALONGI and GASHUNGANO. The wounded are not treated and the dead are not buried.
This situation which resembles to an ethnic cleansing aimed at killing all Hutu Rwandan refugees and Hutu civilian population of the Eastern DRC is inacceptable and must stop immediately.
The FDLR call upon the whole International Community, especially the UN Security Council, the African Union, the Southern African Development Community (SADC), the European Union and MONUSCO to stand up and condemn these unspeakable attacks and order Rwanda to stop killing innocent population and withdraw its troops without further delay from the DRC territory.
The FDLR call upon all humanitarian organizations (Red Cross, UNHCR, etc.) to do everything possible to rescue those unfortunate populations, provide medical treatment, food, water and shelter to displaced people.
The FDLR remain committed to peace and reiterate their conviction that a viable solution to the Rwanda political problem can be found only through peaceful means i.e. direct talks between the Kigali regime and the FDLR.

Selon nos confrères de RFI, l’ambassadeur de Belgique au Burundi s’est vu retirer son agrément. Il pourrait s’agir d’une conséquence de la décision belge de suspendre leur coopération à hauteur de plusieurs dizaines de millions d’euros. Des négociations doivent s’ouvrir entre l’Union européenne et le pays et pourraient suspendre toute coopération entre l’Europe et le Burundi. Selon une source officielle citée par RFI, ce retrait d'agrément serait dû à «une dégradation de confiance. Cela a pour but de renforcer notre relation avec la Belgique».

Kagame’s headache: To bow out or to hang on?
Wrong !
Naturally, the second subject set the conference — and, by extension, the country — afire, sending rivulets of excitement, anticipation and even confusion throughout the ‘land of a thousand hills’.

“I have been asked by many people, especially journalists, whether I will respect the term limits on the presidency,” Kagame began his speech on the issue, “but regardless of the answer I give, the question keeps coming back. Now even citizens are asking me the same question: Will I retire in 2017? Many of those asking this question are worried about the future of the country; whether, when I leave, there will be continuity and stability, especially given the increasing pressures on the country.”
Kagame went ahead to display letters from ‘ordinary Rwandans’ beseeching him to stay on, with many expressing fears that, should he leave, the gains of his presidency could soon be swept away by ineptitude and political indiscipline.
Those remarks, and the letters in Kagame’s hands, brought to national attention a trend that has troubled the presidency and its opposition over the past few months.

In the private missives, as well as in public functions, people say that, given the unique circumstances of Rwanda and recent pressures on its government to toe a certain line, they are worried that when Kagame leaves, many things could go wrong, and especially so if he leaves quickly and haphazardly.
“Irrespective of me saying; ‘Yes, I will go’, people keep saying they are not sure this is possible,” he said. “I don’t want this uncertainty to continue. Come 2017, we are going to have change. But there needs to be continuity and stability. Therefore the challenge is how to organise this change while at the same time ensuring continuity of what we have achieved and also retaining the stability of the country.”
To get the back story of Rwanda’s seeming aversion to a post-Kagame government, we talked to those in his administration and those outside it, to his loyalists and his biggest critics, to the man in high office and the woman in the streets. The results, needless to say, were baffling.
