Dictators like Kagame who have changed their national constitutions to remain indefinitely on power should not be involved in UN high level and global activities including chairing UN meetings
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.

[AfricaWatch] The Clarion Vision: Harnessing the Civic Power Continental Africa Diaspora
Dear Friends,
It is an incredible journey to have been invited to be a part of this Diaspora push and to have gotten these emails all of this time from many of you. I am extremely passionate about all of it!
I have to say that collaboration is key and Binta and I know all too well how this is true and
the importance of in earnest support given and received while keeping the cycle of freedom and life in the higher ebb and flow of it's Godly origin or you could say the give and take in a constant healthy cycle.
My name is Dr. Brook Bello and I and the founder of More Too Life. My center is in a very segregated city of Sarasota, Florida. Many of my clients are (80%) are African American and plagued with issues of Human Trafficking, rape, incest, molestation and more. I am as well a Survivor who became a film-maker and author as well as an ordained pastor. Our org once sent a staff member to South Africa simply to work and care and teach children. In addition, my documentary film shot in the Middle East I met many African brothers and sisters working in Dubai and all over the U.A.E and Kingdom of Bahrain and more from Kenya, Nigeria, Senegal, South Africa, and many other countries of Africa that I was able to love on and speak to about dreams, education, human trafficking, family and what they felt true freedom really was and how to grasp for it and fight for it with every breath and to live a life of wholeness, somehow, along the way.
As racial tensions in the USA are rising and the high rate of trafficking in persons being girls and women of color with often an African American male as the trafficker that sales to someone of non-African origin, we have so much work to do as men are the answer to the problem and we at More Too Life mentor male youth 10-26 in hopes that they discover how beautiful and powerful they are (90% African American Male youth). I am in DC this week as with every month for a while as a Master Series for Distinguished Leader Fellow with the Skinner Institute. We are 17 fellows this year all of us, African or African American, whilst we learn and have our already leadership skills come to another level; "Promise Driven."
Anyway, I invite you to look at my site and view what we do so that we can serve one another in the fight. I am also looking to take a few victims/survivors to Africa to be educated on the vast knowledge of our origin while they free their minds and thus hearts along the journey. We look to volunteer at a school or orphanage, or wherever is needed to be a blessing and to be blessed. This exchange is a cultural immersion and both sides will benefit as there is nothing more powerful that the insight and education learned in human exchange. None the less, I would love to add you to our newsletter as well and so will send and If you do not want to receive it every quarter simply unsubscribe, but if you do just knowing we have your prayers is a huge blessing. I am in DC tomorrow through Friday. In In VA 25 an 26th and NYC, doing an ABC television event on my new book April 1-5th, just in case something is happening in that time frame I can attend, support and get the word out. I can be reached at the info below. Onward and Upward...

Dear Community Leaders & Members of the Continental African Community;
Dear Friends of Africa:
Our population is growing in the United States with the potentials, like the Hispanic, Asian and Jewish communities, to become an empowered community.

The multi-sector and interactive program is complementary: It highlights the inter-connected systems of a vibrant and vital community: economic, social, cultural and civic, including special segments on youth and women.
You can get more details on the goals and rationales:
The Civic Empowerment Segment with Rev. Dr. Sylvester Okere will address the census, data and their implications on resource allocations; civic engagement that fosters the ability of the community to influence public processes in order to achieve outcomes at local, state and federal levels; immigration updates; the 2014 elections and impacts on issues that affect the community; services for community residents; community collaboration and advocacy for impacts.These are among the burning quality of life issues and we encourage spotlight on other issues.
Every new and emerging population in the US had to leverage its collective power to become reckoning community. You have the ability to make the difference and no effort is too small for the change.
Therefore, let us work together, complementing efforts to build a sustainable community.
Everyone Counts.

-“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
United Kingdom's Proxy Wars in Africa: The Case of Rwanda and DR Congo: 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.
Thousands of Hutu murdered by Kagame inside Rwanda, e.g. Kibeho massacres
Kagame killed 200,000 Hutus from all regions of the country, the elderly and children who were left by their relatives, the disabled were burned alive. Other thousands of people were killed in several camps of displaced persons including Kibeho camp. All these war crimes remain unpunished.The British news reporters were accompanying Kagame’s fighters on day-by-day basis and witnessed these massacres, but they never reported on this.
25,000 Hutu bodies floated down River Akagera into Lake Victoria in Uganda.
The British irrational, extremist, partisan,biased, one-sided media and politicians have disregarded Kagame war crimes e.g. the Kibeho camp massacres, massacres of innocents Hutu refugees in DR. Congo. The British media have been supporting Kagame since he invaded Rwanda by organising the propaganda against the French over the Rwandan genocide, suppressing the truth about the genocide and promoting the impunity of Kagame and his cronies in the African Great Lakes Region. For the British, Rwanda does not need democracy, Rwanda is the African Israel; and Kagame and his guerilla fighters are heroes.The extremist British news reporters including Fergal Keane, Chris Simpson, Chris McGreal, Mark Doyle, etc. continue to hate the Hutus communities and to polarise the Rwandan society.
Kagame political ambitions triggered the genocide.
Kagame’s guerrilla war was aimed at accessing to power at any cost. He rejected all attempts and advice that could stop his military adventures including the cease-fire, political negotiations and cohabitation, and UN peacekeeping interventions. He ignored all warnings that could have helped him to manage the war without tragic consequences. Either you supported Kagame’ s wars and you are now his friend, or you were against his wars and you are his enemy. Therefore, Kagame as the Rwandan strong man now, you have to apologise to him for having been against his war and condemned his war crimes, or accept to be labelled as having been involved in the genocide. All key Kagame’s fighters who committed war crimes and crimes against humanity are the ones who hold key positions in Rwandan army and government for the last 15 years. They continue to be supported and advised by the British including Tony Blair, Andrew Mitchell MP, and the British army senior officials.
Aid that kills: The British Budget Support financed Museveni and Kagame’s wars in Rwanda and DRC.
Genocide propaganda and fabrications are used by the so-called British scholars, news reporters and investigative journalists to promote their CVs and to get income out of the genocide through the selling of their books, providing testimonies against the French, access to consultancy contracts from the UN and Kagame, and participation in conferences and lectures in Rwanda, UK and internationally about genocide. Genocide propaganda has become a lucrative business for Kagame and the British. Anyone who condemned or did not support Kagame’s war is now in jail in Rwanda under the gacaca courts system suuported by British tax payer's money, or his/she is on arrest warrant if he/she managed to flee the Kagame’s regime. Others have fled the country and are still fleeing now. Many others Rwandans are being persecuted in their own country. Kagame is waiting indefinitely for the apologies from other players who warn him or who wanted to help to ensure that political negotiations take place between Kagame and the former government he was fighting against. Britain continues to supply foreign aid to Kagame and his cronies with media reports highlighting economic successes of Rwanda. Such reports are flawed and are aimed at misleading the British public to justify the use of British taxpayers’ money. Kagame and his cronies continue to milk British taxpayers’ money under the British budget support. This started from 1986 through the British budget support to Uganda until now.
Dictator Kagame: No remorse for his unwise actions and ambitions that led to the Rwandan genocide.
No apologies yet to the Rwandan people. The assassination of President Juvenal Habyarimana by Kagame was the only gateway for Kagame to access power in Rwanda. The British media, politicians, and the so-called British scholars took the role of obstructing the search for the truth and justice; and of denying this assassination on behalf of General Kagame. General Paul Kagame has been obliging the whole world to apologise for his mistakes and war crimes. The UK’s way to apologise has been pumping massive aid into Rwanda's crony government and parliement; and supporting Kagame though media campaigns.
Fanatical, partisan, suspicious, childish and fawning relations between UK and Kagame
Kagame receives the British massive aid through the budget support, British excessive consultancy, sector wide programmes, the Tutsi-dominated parliament, British and Tutsi-owned NGOs; for political, economic and English language expansion to Rwanda. The British aid to Rwanda is not for all Rwandans. It is for Kagame himself and his Tutsi cronies.
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.
-The British relentless and long running battle to become the sole player and gain new grounds of influence in the francophone African Great Lakes Region has led to the expulsion of other traditional players from the region, or strained diplomatic relations between the countries of the region and their traditional friends. These new tensions are even encouraged by the British using a variety of political and economic manoeuvres.
-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.
