The dictator Kagame at UN
Why has the UN ignored its own report about the massacres of Hutu refugees in DRC ?
The UN has ignored its own reports, NGOs and media reports about the massacres of hundreds of thousands of Hutu in DRC Congo (estimated to be more than 400,000) by Kagame when he attacked Hutu refugee camps in Eastern DRC in 1996. This barbaric killings and human rights violations were perpetrated by Kagame’s RPF with the approval of UK and USA and with sympathetic understanding and knowledge of UNHCR and international NGOs which were operating in the refugees camps. According to the UN, NGO and media reports between 1993 and 2003 women and girls were raped. Men slaughtered. Refugees killed with machetes and sticks. The attacks of refugees also prevented humanitarian organisations to help many other refugees and were forced to die from cholera and other diseases. Other refugees who tried to return to Rwanda where killed on their way by RFI and did not reach their homes. No media, no UNHCR, no NGO were there to witness these massacres. When Kagame plans to kill, he makes sure no NGO and no media are prevent. Kagame always kills at night.

2 July 2009

The three leaders will also be decorated with "Umurinzi" medal,Rwanda's Campaign Against Genocide Medal.
Mrs Maria Nyerere, the late president's wife, will receive the posthumous medal on behalf of her husband.
"This is a special time for Rwanda to celebrate achievements and recommit to build a new and better future," Minister of Information Louise Mushikiwabo, told The New Times.
"This seemed like the right time to honour those who have in one way or another contributed to our liberation. We are thankful for their countries and their citizens for having supported Rwanda's cause. They have been there when Rwanda needed them."

The Rwandan government will tomorrow honour President Museveni for backing the Rwandese Patriotic Front war that overthrew the Juvanel Habyarima regime in 1994.
Rwandan President Paul Kagame will decorate his former Commander-in-Chief with a heroic medal during celebrations to mark the RPF government 15th anniversary in Kigali on July 4.
The accolade to President Museveni is a sign of the improving relations between Rwanda and Uganda after the armies of the two countries fought in the DR Congo 11 years ago.
Rwanda Information Minister Louis Mushikiwabo told Daily Monitor in a phone interview that his country appreciates the role played by President Museveni in the RPF 1990-94 war struggle.
She said: "We are very grateful for the support and brotherly gesture showed by President Museveni and the people of Uganda during the liberation struggle. We appreciate him for standing up with the people of Rwanda during hard times. It's extremely significant, and on Saturday, we are very happy to have President Museveni here."
Asked for his take, Museveni's press secretary Tamale Mirundi said, "We are brothers; the Rwandans participated in the liberation struggle here in 1980s and 1990s during their struggle to go back, we also supported them."
Presidents Kagame and Museveni and 25 others made the first attack on Kabamba military barracks in 1981 before launching a guerilla war that led to the downfall of the Obote II regime.
After capturing power in 1986, President Museveni appointed Mr Kagame the director of military intelligence before he later led the RPF into capturing power in Rwanda in 1994.
The attack on Rwanda led to the genocide in 1994 that left an estimated 800,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus dead. The Uganda Ambassador in Kigali, Mr Richard Kabonero, told Daily Monitor from Kigali yesterday, "We expect the President here on Saturday at the invitation of the Rwanda government."
During celebrations, according to New Times newspaper, Rwanda will also honour unidentified foreigners who supported the struggle.

-“The enemies of Freedom do not argue ; they shout and they shoot.”
The principal key root causes that lead to the Rwandan genocide of 1994 that affected all Rwandan ethnic groups were:
1)The majority Hutu community’s fear of the return of the discriminatory monarchy system that was practiced by the minority Tutsi community against the enslaved majority Hutu community for about 500 years
2)The Hutu community’s fear of Kagame’s guerrilla that committed massacres in the North of the country and other parts of the countries including assassinations of Rwandan politicians.
3) The Rwandan people felt abandoned by the international community ( who was believed to support Kagame’s guerrilla) and then decided to defend themselves with whatever means they had against the advance of Kagame’ guerrilla supported by Ugandan, Tanzanian and Ethiopian armies and other Western powers.
-“The enemies of Freedom do not argue ; they shout and they shoot.”
-“The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.”
-“The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.”
-“I have loved justice and hated iniquity: therefore I die in exile.”
The Rwanda war of 1990-1994 had multiple dimensions.
The Rwanda war of 1990-1994 had multiple dimensions. Among Kagame’s rebels who were fighting against the Rwandan government, there were foreigners, mainly Ugandan fighters who were hired to kill and rape innocent Rwandan people in Rwanda and refugees in DRC.

SUMMARY : THE TRAGIC CONSEQUENCES OF THE BRITISH BUDGET SUPPORT AND GEO-STRATEGIC AMBITIONS
The Rwandan genocide and 6,000,000 Congolese and Hutu refugees killed are the culminating point of a long UK’s battle to expand their influence to the African Great Lakes Region. UK supported Kagame’s guerrilla war by providing military support and money. The UK refused to intervene in Rwanda during the genocide to allow Kagame to take power by military means that triggered the genocide. Kagame’s fighters and their families were on the Ugandan payroll paid by UK budget support.
· 4 Heads of State assassinated in the francophone African Great Lakes Region.
· 2,000,000 people died in Hutu and Tutsi genocides in Rwanda, Burundi and RD.Congo.
· 600,000 Hutu refugees killed in R.D.Congo, Uganda, Central African Republic and Rep of Congo.
· 6,000,000 Congolese dead.
· 8,000,000 internal displaced people in Rwanda, Burundi and DR. Congo.
· 500,000 permanent Rwandan and Burundian Hutu refugees, and Congolese refugees around the world.
· English language expansion to Rwanda to replace the French language.
· 20,000 Kagame’s fighters paid salaries from the British Budget Support from 1986 to present.
· £500,000 of British taxpayer’s money paid, so far, to Kagame and his cronies through the budget support, SWAPs, Tutsi-dominated parliament, consultancy, British and Tutsi-owned NGOs.
· Kagame has paid back the British aid received to invade Rwanda and to strengthen his political power by joining the East African Community together with Burundi, joining the Commonwealth, imposing the English Language to Rwandans to replace the French language; helping the British to establish businesses and to access to jobs in Rwanda, and to exploit minerals in D.R.Congo.

This blog reports the crimes that remain unpunished and the impunity that has generated a continuous cycle of massacres in many parts of Africa. In many cases, the perpetrators of the crimes seem to have acted in the knowledge that they would not be held to account for their actions.
The need to fight this impunity has become even clearer with the massacres and genocide in many parts of Africa and beyond.
The blog also addresses issues such as Rwanda War Crimes, Rwandan Refugee massacres in Dr Congo, genocide, African leaders’ war crimes and crimes against humanity, Africa war criminals, Africa crimes against humanity, Africa Justice.
-General Kagame has been echoing the British advice that Rwanda does not need any loan or aid from Rwandan traditional development partners, meaning that British aid is enough to solve all Rwandan problems.
-The British obsession for the English Language expansion has become a tyranny that has led to genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity, dictatorial regimes, human rights violations, mass killings, destruction of families, communities and cultures, permanent refugees and displaced persons in the African Great Lakes region.
- Rwanda, a country that is run by a corrupt clique of minority-tutsi is governed with institutional discrmination, human rights violations, dictatorship, authoritarianism and autocracy, as everybody would expect.
