The dictator Kagame at UN

The dictator Kagame at UN
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.

PRESS
RELEASE:

 CORMSA VS THE PRESIDENT OF
RSA AND GENERAL
KAYUMBA NYAMWASA & OTHERS


On this day the 26th/09/2014
the Pretoria High Court in Pretoria dismissed the
application brought by CORMSA
(Consortium for Refugees and migrants in South Africa)
against the Government
of South Africa and General Kayumba Nyamwasa as baseless and
unfounded and with
costs.

The application was found to be
baseless and unfounded, but informed by false allegations
that Gen Kayumba committed
crimes which they failed to prove to the Judge as they
alleged.

The Judge further found that the
Rwandan military court's decision of guilty in absentia to
be irrelevant and
cannot be relied on or be taken
serious.

The Judge found that the indictment
by both French and Spanish courts on allegations of war
crimes, to be
unsubstantiated and to be mere allegations and therefore no
reasonable grounds that
he must be extradited to those respective countries or to be
excluded as a
political refugee.

The Judge found that there was no
reason for exclusion as a refugee in terms of both South
African law
specifically Sec 4 of the refugees Act 1998 and under UN
Convention of 1951 read
together with the OAU Convention of 1969 and its protocol on
refugees.

The Judge found that the South
African Government did consider all the allegations and
indeed correctly found
that there was no reason to believe that Gen Kayumba
Nyamwasa committed these
crimes in the absence of any evidence to that
effect.

The Court noted the following in its
Judgment;

1.     
That General
Kayumba's
life was in danger and that there was no dispute about it,
since his fallout
with General Kagame President of Rwanda and became his
political opponent.

2.     
That there
where many
attempts on his life by the Govt of
Rwanda.

3.     
That the
Government of
South Africa was aware of the allegations and considered
them,

4.     
That 
the indictment by French Judge Bruguiere was
declared by new investigative Judges Trevidic and Nathalia
Poux to be false.

5.     
That this court
could not
consider the Spanish indictment because it was based on
Judge Bruguiere's
findings which were found to be
false.

6.     
That General
Kayumba was
correctly granted political refugee by South African
Government in terms of
both national and international
law.

Therefore,
the court dismissed the application with costs.

"In this case African governments have a few million ripped from the hide of their suffering people to spend on PR, you know. And the Black political class wants a cut of that." – Bruce Dixon

Transcript

KPFA Evening News Anchor Cameron Jones: The City of Atlanta hosted the fourth international Rwanda Day today, at the Georgia International Convention Center. Rwanda Day celebrations were held in Chicago in 2011, Boston and London in 2012, and Toronto in 2013.

Rwandan and Congolese exiles and refugees have appeared to protest each time, as they did again today. Rwanda's sizable public relations apparatus bills Rwanda Day as a celebration of Rwandan culture and recovery from the 1994 Rwandan Genocide and a chance to invest in Rwanda, which means, in large part, investing in Rwanda's illegal trade in the resource riches of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Bruce Dixon, Atlanta resident and managing editor of the Black Agenda Report, attended the protest and produced a flyer stating that "Rwanda's Paul Kagame did NOT end a genocide in 1994. He brought the genocide with him and then brought it to Congo." KPFA's Ann Garrison spoke with Bruce Dixon.

KPFA/Ann Garrison: Bruce, I know that Atlanta has one of the highest concentrations of both Black Americans and Black immigrants from Africa and the Caribbean and that today's protest was organized by both Friends of the Congo and The Committee for the Unity of Black Immigrants and Americans. Could you talk about how you discussed this with these various African communities who might not know the recent history of Rwanda.

Bruce Dixon: Somebody needs to explain to folks what's going on when you've got a thing here from the government of Rwanda, and why should we be suspicious when the Black Caucus or the mayor opens his doors and invites African dignitaries in – and with supposedly representatives of the do-gooder organizations here in the United States there at the same table.

What's really happening here? Is it sweetness and light and acknowledgement of our African heritage? Is that what's going on? Or is there something sinister going on? And how do we explain that? So, this has been an interesting series of lessons and I'm going to try to address some of that in the piece that I'm doing.

Bruce Dixon, Atlanta resident and managing editor of the Black Agenda Report, attended the protest and produced a flyer stating that "Rwanda's Paul Kagame did NOT end a genocide in 1994. He brought the genocide with him and then brought it to Congo."

What are the ties here between our Black political class and the representatives of African states who are here? And what do those ties mean? In this case, African governments have a few million ripped from the hide of their suffering people to spend in PR, you know. And the Black political class wants a cut of that. They want to do that.

And then of course you've got the examples of people like Jendayi Fraser and Susan Rice and that whole core. And I've never heard Susan Rice speak to Black people, but I do know that some of the people in academia who are here at Georgia State University and Emory, they'll go around and mumble words about Pan Africanism, while they try to get a contract with the DRC government or the Kenyan or Ugandan or Rwandan government.

And then they'll turn around to Black Americans and the Africans and mumble some BLEEP! about Pan-Africanism and the good of the motherland and how they're serving all this kind of bull-BLEEP!

KPFA: They're trying to get PR contracts?

Bruce Dixon: Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're trying to get PR contracts.

KPFA: What about the need to put Black faces on corporate resource interests in Africa?

Bruce Dixon: These are multinational companies here that are doing business. When the affirmative action thing was up before Congress and Republicans were marshaling their forces against it, then what happened was the Pentagon came forward and lots of Fortune 500 corporations came forward.

And the Pentagon says: "Wait, wait, wait, wait, we need high ranking, well-educated, accomplished Blacks and Latinos to front for what we're doing here, for our long term plans. We can't be an all-white military and carry on what we've got to carry on in Africa."

And the companies said: "Wait, wait, wait, wait, there's emerging markets here that we want to control and African and Latin American and Asian governments that we've got to deal with. We can't look like we're all white. We can't do that. We've got to have Black faces. And it's important to our long term survival and viability."

This is an empire, you know. This is an empire, and the empire needs Black faces representing it.

KPFA: And that was Bruce Dixon, managing editor of the Black Agenda Report. His essay on Rwanda Day in Atlanta will appear later this week in the Black Agenda Report. The flyer he created for the event is included in "Kagame started the genocide in Rwanda, then Congo," a statement signed by Rwandans and Congolese in Africa, Europe, and the U.S. and published on the website of the San Francisco Bay View, sfbayview.com.

-“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 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.

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.

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

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.
