Persistent institutionalised lies and hatred against Rwandan Hutus

Contrary to racism that black people generally fall victims of in the Western society where it is publicly decried, a similar but nasty racism against Rwandan Hutus promoted by the regime of Paul Kagame in Kigali is world widely sponsored and celebrated. The picture of the latter is painted on the canvas of the unspeakable tragedy that the Great Lakes region experiences for more than two decades.

The lies and supporting motives of that racism are many but this note will focus on one and one only: the unspoken killings of the Rwandan Patriotic Front from October 1st 1990 to July 4th 1994. The period which followed until today has been the object of many books, reports and field researches which document the horrendous atrocities that Paul Kagame and his sponsors have committed in the entire region.

Everything happens for a reason. The ongoing covering up of the Rwandan Patriotic Front’s crimes since 1990 is motivated by the important geopolitical and economically strategic interests of US, UK, Germany, Israel, and Belgium in Central Africa. Since World War II it has been the first time that mainstream media and intellectuals of almost all boards have colluded to sustain the lies about an incredible human tragedy [8 million lives in Rwanda and DRC]. However, in the midst of half truths intended to misinform, there have been rare voices which have been raising dissent views. Unfortunately, they have been instantly qualified as revisionists of the official narrative, or even subtly eliminated or imprisoned.

At the start of the story aggressors of Rwanda on October 1st 1990 [after 1994 they became official oppressors] portray themselves as victims. As French writer Pierre Pean explains that reality, RPF had mastered the new real politics of the end of the 80s and early 90s. Its propaganda strategy was built on the power of ONGs against official governments particularly in developing countries. What they advocated for and spread around matters more than what established national institutions could claim. In the case of Rwanda, in 1992 NGOs accused the government of Habyarimana of committing genocide against Tutsis, this long before April 6th 1994. The lie stuck until today.

This wrong accusation was the result of a well orchestrated machination by RPF international lobby which, following an international report on the abuse of human rights during the Rwandan civil war of 90/94, had found the then Rwandan government guilty. Though the report came out in 1992, the reference to genocide was going to become the RPF mantra to silence everyone who would raise any accusation against the regime of Paul Kagame for its numerous crimes either in Rwanda or the Democratic Republic of Congo. Nowadays, several testimonies of RPF insiders affirm that most of atrocities were and even today continue to be committed by its infiltrated agents.

More than twenty years have passed since these initial lies which were concocted with the help of foreign actors interested in the region. More lies were invented during and well after the 1994 genocide; they are mainly aimed at eradicating Hutus politically and physically from the national scene at the extent that those among them who would survive the regime racist policies would only become citizens of second class category. The process is ongoing even more so during the 20th anniversary of 1994. And the recently produced documentary – 7 jours à Kigali, is part of it. The film joins the rally mainstream media is on for almost a quarter of a century disseminating and promoting cynical and criminal propaganda against Rwandan Hutus and other bantu populations living on coveted territories of Central African countries.

In that film, someone who experienced de visu the 90/94 tragedy unfolding could hardly believe what is projected in front of their eyes. What is striking is the role that the producers France Televisions, Ladybirds Films and visibly the Rwandan government make the two sides to the Rwandan conflict to play. On April 6th 1994 when the plane of President Juvenal Habyarimana is shot down above Kigali while approaching the airport for its landing, and the two following days, the Rwandan Patriotic Front is shown as an indecisive military force. It appears from the narrative where the Rwandan Minister of Defence James Kabarebe is the main figure that only RPF intervenes after observing almost powerlessly the massacres of the Tutsi population once the Hutu president was killed.

From the Conseil National de Development – CND building where the Rwandan parliament is located, the cameraman makes the viewer of the documentary have the impression that the Rwandan Patriotic Front was incapable of stopping the massacres which unfolded after the assassination of Habyarimana. The truth is totally something else. After 8.25 pm when the presidential plane went down, RPF started immediately systematic killings in the areas of Remera, Kicukiro and Kacyiru of Kigali. These were close to the CND building where the 600 men RPF battalion was staying. It is important to mention that its presence in the Rwandan capital had been authorised by the Arusha Agreement of August 1993.

The documentary revisits vividly announcements that the journalists of Radio Television des Milles Collines RTLM make at that time where the radio invited the population to track the enemy among them. The producer of the film does not mention anything about the thousands of RPF infiltrated cells that were spread in Kigali and across the country that Valens Kajeguhakwa and Abdul Joshua Ruzibiza talk about in their respective books – Rwanda/De la terre de paix à la terre de sang: et après? and Rwanda, l’histoire secrète. The two Tutsi writers explain extensively how the Rwandan Patriotic Front was able to cruelly and cynically massacre innocent populations Hutus and Tutsis alike in order to achieve what it did in Rwanda.

Hunted Rwandan refugees in DRC in 1997

The film producers do not refer at any time to the massacres of 90/93 by the Rwandan Patriotic Front in the northern parts of the country. Civilian populations and mainly Hutus were massacred in the thousands. By the eve of the assassination of Habyarimana, in the periphery of Kigali, there are almost one million of internally displaced people who fled ethnic cleansing by RPF wherever the rebel group occupied some territory. There were massacres of Tutsis in the Bugesera region, Bagogwe people in the North West – Gisenyi, Hutu politicians – Gapyisi Emmanuel, Bucyana Martin, Felicien Gatabazi, etc. There were explosions of grenades in public places killings tens of civilians for a number of years. These atrocities are well documented and were committed by RPF. But the propagandists select tactfully what to show or not.

When one decides to tell half truths they become worst than a liar, because their intention is to cover up incriminating facts and portray their narrative as the only truth around. At least a complete lie does not lie, in the sense that it tells the whole opposite of the truth. While the Rwandan Patriotic Front is commemorating this year 20th anniversary of the 1994 genocide, the regime is apparently in a fighting mood to cement forever its narrative despite the increasing numbers of voices claiming more and more loudly a different story of what happened at that time or is still ongoing in the country. Understandably all Rwandan institutions are built on the fundamental lie that Paul Kagame stopped the genocide against Tutsis, while the truth is that he steadily prepared the genocide not only of the official victims but as well of Hutus whose ordeal when he is removed from power and racist policies he put in place eradicated.

Creating African synergies against third terms

We have had the Arab Spring which started in January 201with the suicide of Mohamed Bouazzizi in Tunisia and removed President Ben Ali from power.

After Tunisia, Egypt then Libya followed. Some thought that the movement for change would spread in Sub-Sahara. But it did not happen as expected. However it created the hope among many in the region that nothing was impossible.

Firoze Manji and Sokari Ekine referred to the newly created spirit of change as an Africa Awakening in their book published in 2012. There were encouraging stories from Burkina Faso, Senegal, and Mauritania to Sudan passing through Gabon.

In the next five years, there will be 20 African presidents who will have in one way or another to deal with the third term issue.

Marshall van Valen explains in his article Snakes & Leaders: Africa’s political succession published on Friday 20/09/13 in the African Report that

Although it’s clear that most of the veteran presidents contemplating political successions over the next five years are scheming to prolong their grip on power, it is equally clear they will face a better organized and equipped opposition well able to exploit information technology and social media.”

Having learnt from the recent possibilities available for political change in Africa, the question that many ask is how Africans can capitalise on the experiences seen elsewhere on the continent, and seek change in their own country but in a much more co-ordinated way in order to share the learning.

The divisions among Africans have in many areas worked against their own interests. What would for example happen if Rwandans, Ugandans and Congolese worked together to remove their respective dictatorships? As the latter plot their stay in power, their citizens on their part would organize together to get rid of them.

Source: Snakes & Leaders - Africa's political succession. Marshall van Valen/ The African Report

What if the 20 dictators seeking third terms found themselves not only confronted to their own citizens but also to the rest of other Africans who don’t buy into their abuse of power?

To create such platforms of action, people need to communicate and organize accordingly. They need to overcome their narrow approach of thinking that things aren’t interconnected. A dictatorship in a neighbouring country impacts in some ways on lives and leadership in one given country. The same way goes for democratic rule.

An African Coalition Against Third Terms – ACATT would be a concept worth exploring seriously by forces seeking change across the continent. Its advantage on the current situation would be that it would help create synergies for change which are today lacking.

It is true the African Union has dispositions that deal with governments which become unconstitutional by changing the fundamental law to extend the time in office of their leaders. So far these directives have not been very effective as many examples are there to prove that the Union is not having some tangible impact in that area.

While some dictators are strategizing among themselves on how to remain in power, sometimes helped by external powers interested in the status quo, it is time citizens too across the African borders come together to defeat their clinging onto power which does not improve the wellbeing of the populations.

If you have a concrete idea which you think could help Africans stop once for all third terms on the continent, please email risingcontinent@gmail.com

Niba kwizerwa na FPR ari uku birangira, nahitamo guterwa ishema no kwibera ruvumwa mu maso y’iyo ntindi !

Muri iyi myaka itatu ishize umugabo wahoze ari Moniteri-agri witwa Tom Ndahiro, akaba n’umujyanama w’intavamumbere wa Perezida Paul Kagame, yihinduye umunyamategeko n’umucamanza w’ikirenga, yigira umunyamakuru w’akataraboneka, yigaragaza nk’umushakashatsi w’ikimene mu by’amateka, agerekaho no kwihangishaho ibyo kuba Umuhanga wa Kiliziya….maze si ukogera uburimiro kuri Musenyeri Yohani Damaseni Bimenyimana, Umushumba wa Diyosezi ya Cyangugu, yiva imuzi! Inyandiko yanditse mu binyamakuru binyuranye (birimo http://www.umuvugiziwordpress.com, http://www.rushyashya.com, http://www.igihe.com…)ntitwakwirirwa tuzirondora, ni nyinshi kandi zirazwi.  Aho hose yaranzwe n’ikinyoma, kwishongora, kuvangitiranya ibintu, kubeshyera abandi, ariko buri gihe akagwa mu nka nk’izindi ntore zose : intego ye n’umukoresha we yari ukwangisha Abanyarwanda Diyosezi gatolika ya Cyangugu ayigerekaho icyaha baringa cy’ “ingengabitekerezo ya jenoside”, ayiziza ngo kuko idafasha FPR kurimbura abapadiri babiri bashinze ikinyabitekerezo  cyitwa UMUHANUZI cyahisemo guha urubuga abenegihugu barambiwe agakabyo k’ingoma y’igitugu y’Agatsiko kikundira IFARANGA kurusha rubanda. Muri iyi minsi noneho imigambi nyakuri ya FPR kuri Diyosezi ya Cyangugu yarigaragaje , akaba ari nacyo kigiye gukoza isoni abari bamenyereye kwihisha mu NDAKI y’ IKINYOMA!

I.Kongere y’Ishyaka Ishema  yabaye ikibazo ite ?

Padiri Thomas Nahimana yageze aho yumva ko gusenga no kuba umunyamakuru byonyine bidahagije ngo bikureho ingoma y’igitugu ikomeje kuyogoza ibintu mu Rwanda no mu karere k’Ibiyaga bigari. Yumvise neza ko ikibazo nyamukuru gihangayikishije Abanyarwanda ari ikibazo cyo mu rwego rwa politiki, gikomoka ahanini ku butegetsi  bubi kandi budashoboye kuyobora igihugu, bwahisemo kwihisha inyuma y’iterabwoba rikaze rijyana no kunyunyuza imitsi ya rubanda mu buryo burengeje ubukana akarengane kariho ku ngoma ya cyami.

Nibwo rero yahisemo gutera intambwe yo gufatanya n’abandi babyumva kimwe  biyise Abataripfana, bashinga Ishyaka Ishema ry’u Rwanda, taliki ya 28 Mutarama 2013 . Nyuma y’umwaka iryo shyaka ribayeho ryakoze Kongere yaryo isanzwe ya mbere, yabereye i Paris guhera taliki ya 7 kugeza ku ya 9 Gashyantare 2014 . Muri iyo Kongere , Abataripfana 32 bari bayitabiriye baganiriye byinshi bireba igihugu cyacu bityo bafata n’ibyemezo bikomeye birimo kujya gukorera politiki mu Rwanda, kwitabira amatora y’umukuru w’igihugu azaba mu mwaka w’2017,  gutora umukandida uzahagararira Ishyaka Ishema muri ayo matora, no kwemeza italiki ya 28 Mutarama 2016 nk’umunsi ntarengwa wo kugera mu Rwanda.

FPR imaze kumenya ibyemezo by’iyi Kongere, yumvise neza  ko Abanyarwanda bamaze kuyitinyuka bikomeye, bakaba batangiye guhumeka umwuka w’impinduka, ko byanze bikunze Abataripfana nibashyira gahunda yabo mu bikorwa hazahinduka byinshi. Kandi ni koko, uko tuzi Abataripfana barangajwe imbere na Padiri Thomas Nahimana, ibyo biyemeje bazabishyira mu bikorwa.

Kuva uwo munsi hano i Kigali bacuze umugambi wo gukora ibishoboka byose bakaburizamo gahunda y’Ishema Party yo kuza mu gihugu, byabakundira bakica Padiri Thomas nk’uko bishe Patrick Karegeya, byakwanga bagashaka uko bamubangamira mu nzira zose zishoboka. Hano i Kigali bizwi ko n’amafaranga yarangije gutangwa, ndetse ngo hari na miliyoni zigera kuri 15 z’amanyarwanda zagenewe abafasha ba hafi ba Padiri Thomas, zikazahabwa uzafasha  FPR gusenya iryo shyaka !

Mu gihe FPR igishaka inzira zose zo kubuza Padiri Thomas Nahimana kugaruka mu Rwanda, hizwe n’inzira isanzwe ari nyabagendwa yo “gutekinika” amadosiye y’ubutabera . Gusa kubona icyaha washinja padiri Thomas Nahimana agakatirwa mu rukiko ntibyari byoroshe. Ariko kuberako mu bugizi bwa nabi FPR ikomeje kwesa imihigo nk’Indashyikirwa, yaje kunguka igitekerezo : kwica Padiri Evariste Nambaje.

II.Urupfu rwa Padiri Evariste Nambaje nk’icyanzu gifasha FPR kugera ku ntego.

 

(1)Padiri Evariste Nambaje yari azwi nk’“Umupadiri wizewe na Leta “, kandi ni Tom Ndahiro wamuhaye ako kabyiniriro !

(2)Bizwi ko Padiri Evariste atazuyaje gukora mu isanduku ya Diyosezi agashyira mu Cyama kugira ngo arebwe neza .

(3)Ntiyatinye gufatanya n’umujenerari w’Inkotanyi umushinga w’ubwubatsi bw’inzu y’umutamenwa muri Kigali, gusa uwo mujenerali yaje kumwigarika, ubu inzu arayirya wenyine.

(4)Bizwi ko Padiri Evariste yari afitanye amakimbirane akarishye na Mayor wa Rusizi Oscar Nzeyimana, bapfa ikibanza.

(5)Bizwi ko Padiri Evariste ariwe wakoze uko ashoboye ngo FPR igire imigabane mu mushinga wa Diyosezi wo kubaka Hoteli Malina, ahahoze Ituze, mu gihe Diyosezi yari imaze gushirirwa kubera uburiganya bwaturutse ku mufatanyabikorwa ukomoka mu gihugu cya Israheli,ngo waba yarambuye Diyosezi.

(6)Bizwi ko Padiri Evariste yishwe mu rukerera rwo ku wa 22  Gashyantare 2014, umurambo we ujya gutabwa ku muhanda mu ishyamba rya Nyungwe, aho  waje gutahurwa nyuma y’amasaha arenga 12.  Mu misa y’ishyingurwa rye, Depite Jeanne d’Arc Nyinawase yiyama abantu batabarika bari baherekeje Padiri ngo ntibabeshyere FPR ngo niyo imwishe ngo Inkiko nizo zizagaragaza uwamwishe!

III. Ni nde wishe Padiri Evariste Nambaje?

1. Tom Ndahiro araca amarenga ?

Nk’uko Depite Jeanne d’Arc Nyinawase yakabisezeranyije rubanda, taliki ya 19/3/2013 , ku isaha ya 23h30, Moniteri Tom Ndahiro, umujyanama w’akatavamunzu wa Perezida Paul Kagame, yagarutse mu kibuga, yandika mu kinyamakuru gisanzwe kivugira FPR-Inkotanyi cyitwa igihe.com inkuru ndende yahaye uyumutwe ukurikira : RTLM yasabye Kiliziya gatolika kuyifasha muri Jenoside. Yabonye abayoboke I Cyangugu 

Nk’uko dusanzwe tumuzi, Tom Ndahiro yarikunkumuye yikoza hirya n’ino, avuga ibidahuye n’umutwe w’inkuru ye, ariko aza kugwa ku ngingo yari gambiriye :  gutangira gutegurira rubanda kwakira ikinyoma kizakurikiraho.

(1) Inkuru itangira igira iti : “Abantu basoma amakuru yo kuri Internet, bazi urubuga rwitwa Leprophete. Urwo rubuga rushingiye ku rwango bakanarushimangira, rwatangijwe n’abapadiri babiri ba diyosezi Gatolika ya Cyangugu. Abo bapadiri, Nahimana Thomas na Rudakemwa Fortunatus, ni abapadiri bemewe bagikoresha umwuga wabo gukora ibinyuranye n’ibyo bitwa ko barahiriye”.

(2) Icyo FPR yifuza ko Kiliziya ifata nk’ihame : “Umuhamagaro w’abantu ba leprophete, si uwa Kiliziya Gatolika. Ni uw’abajenosideri. Ikosa ry’abayobozi ba kiliziya ni ukudafatira ibyemezo izi mpuzamugambi. Ni abanyeshuri ba Bucyana Martin, Edouard Bandetse cyangwa Rypa Bantari ? Aya ni amazina y’Impuzamugambi zikomeye mu cyahoze ari Cyangugu”.

(3) Uwo  FPR irwaye inzika kuko ibona ko ari we Nyirabayazana : “Nabyanditse kenshi ariko Musenyeri Bimenyimana Jean Damascene ubayobora, bigaragara ko ntacyo bimubwiye”.

(4) Ishyano FPR yifuza guhindura iturufu : “N’umupadiri Evarist Nambajewari waratinyutse kubamagana, abagizi ba nabi baherutse kumwica. Ubu Nahimana Thomas urupfu rwa Padiri Nambaje ararutwerera FPR azi neza ko nta muntu wangaga nyakwigendera nk’abemera bimwe na ba nyiri “le prophète”.

ICYITONDERWA:

Iyi ngingo ya nyuma (4)  ni ryo bango nyamukuru Tom Ndahiro yari azindukiye gutambutsa: Kwemeza rubanda(préparation de l’opinion) ko Padiri Evariste Nambaje atishwe na FPR yamukundaga bihebuje, ko ahubwo yishwe n’abagizi ba nabi kubera ko yari yaratinyutse kwamagana abapadiri babiri bashinze Leprophete, kandi Musenyeri wabo Bimenyimana akaba abashyigikiye! Ushaka kumva uko amadosiye acurwa inzirakarengane zikagezwa imbere y’inkiko, yahera aho !

Ntibyagarukiye aho!

2. Ikinyamakuru Imirasire.com cyo kiratera indi ntambwe .

Nyuma y’iminsi ibiri gusa, taliki ya 21/3/2014, ku isaha ya 13h39, Ikindi kinyamakuru cya FPR cyitwa Imirasire.com cyakomereje aho Tom Ndahiro yari yashojereje. Cyo nticyiriwe gica i Kibungo, cyahise gitanga ubutumwa bagihaye: “Abagize uruhare mu rupfu rwa Padiri Evariste Nambaje batangiye gukekwa”.

Aha ariko tubyumve neza: nk’uko FPR yabitumenyereje mu mvugo n’ingiro byayo , ukekwa n’uwakoze icyaha ni bamwe . Niyo mpapmvu izina rya Padiri Thomas Nahimana rigomba kuvugwa hakiri kare.

Dore uko ikinyamakuru Imirasire.com kibyitwaramo gishimangira bya birego  byaturutse aho Tom Ndahiro akora  :

(1)”Muri iyi minsi, urupfu rwa Padiri Nambaje Evariste, abantu bakomeje kugira byinshi baruvugaho, ariko abantu bakurikiranira hafi politiki yo mu Karere k’ibiyaga bigari, hari abavuga ko yaba yaragambaniwe na Padiri Nahimana Thomas uyobora le Prophete ubu wibera hanze y’igihugu akabaanagaragaza ko arwanya umutegetsi bw’u Rwanda kandi nawe akaba akomoka mu ntara y’Iburengerazuba.

(2)Hashize iminsi mu bitangazamakuru bitandukanye byo mu Rwanda, bitangaje ko Padiri Nahimana Thomas ashaka kugaruka mu Rwanda kwiyamamariza umwanya wo kuzayobora u Rwanda.

(3)Bivugwa ko Padiri Nambaje Evariste yarwanyaga cyane Le Prophete avuga ko urwo rubuga rusebya igihugu kandi akavuga ko iyobowe na Padiri Nahimana Thomas bityo ngo bituma amugambanira aramwicisha ariko uwamwishe azagaragazwa n’inzego zishinzwe umutekano cyangwa se Urukiko”.

3. Ikindi kimenyetso simusiga cy’ibihe: Ingengabitekerezo y’icyaduka yiswe “Kugarura intama zaheze mu bwone” !

Muri uku kwezi kwa kane 2014, Padiri Ubald Rugirangoga, uw’Imena mu bapadiri bafitiwe icyizere na Leta, akaba wa wundi wishe umuhutu witwa Yohani Sindayiheba w’i Mwezi  ku buryo buzwi na bose ariko hakaba nta rukiko rurabimubaza, ubu yongeye kwegura “inkoni y’ubushumba”: yiyemeje kuzenguruka mu maparuwasi atatu ngo yayobowe n’abashumba babi, bagahamisha intama mu bwone, abo kandi ni ba bapadiri b’Abahutu adakunda, bamwe ahora ashinja gukorana na Leprophete ! Amaparuwasi agomba kujya kwigishamo iryo cengezamatwara rye ni Nyamasheke-NYANZA ( yayoborwaga na Padiri Yakobo Niyibizi);  Mwezi ( yayobowe na Padiri Eugene Dusabirema), Shangi-Ntendezi(yahozemo Padiri Alexis Nshimiyimana). Abo bapadiri uko ari  batatu barimuwe mu buryo busanzwe bava muri ayo maparuwasi, ubu barakora ubutumwa ahandi. Muri buri paruwasi Padiri Ubald azajya amarayo iminsi ine yose (Ndabona bisa na “Visite Pastorale” ubundi ikorwa n’Umwepiskopi! Padiri Ubald yageze muri urwo rwego ryari ko tutabimenyeshejwe!) Nka Nyanza azaba ahari kuva taliki ya 22 kugeza ku ya 25 mata 2014. Ngo andi mataliki azatangazwa nyuma.  Ngo ikigamijwe ni  uko abo Bakirisitu “bamupfukamira bakamusaba imbabazi”, ahari bakanamusenga, bakamusingiza!

Padiri Ubald agiye gukora iki muri ariya maparuwasi  ?

 

Ntihagire ubyibeshyaho. Igishishikaje Padiri Ubald si iyogezabutumwa. Ikimujyanye nta kindi kitari ugucengeza mu Bakristu  ko bariya bapadiri babayoboye bari abashumba babi, batumye intama zihera mu bwone, kubera ingengabitekerezo ya jenoside yabokamye , ari nayo ibatera gukorana na Leprophete ! Nyuma y’umurimo wa Ubald, Leta nishinja abo “Bapadiri babi” kugira uruhare mu rupfu rwa Padiri Evariste Nambaje, ntawe uzatungurwa!

4.Dore uko biri gupangwa hano i Kigali:

Gushinja Padiri Thomas Nahimana, wibera hanze y’igihugu, icyaha cyo kwica padiri Evariste Nambaje ntibyoroshye. Ariko ashobora gushinjwa “kugambana”! Kandi ntibigoye kubona abafatanyije nawe gucura umugambi wo kwica Padiri Evariste no kuwushyira mu bikorwa. Abo nta bandi, ni ba Nyirurutwerunini basanzwe bogerwaho uburimiro : Ni Musenyeri Bimenyimana Yohani Damaseni, ushinjwa “kumukingira ikibaba” hamwe na bariya Bapadiri batatu ngo basanzwe boherereza leprophete amakuru ! Nibahamywa icyaha n’urukiko,  Padiri Thomas Nahimana  azagira ubwoba bwo gutaha mu Rwanda muri 2017, aje kwiyamamariza umwanya w’umukuru w’igihugu .

Ibi kandi si igitekerezo, umugambi ugeze kure!

Umwazuro

Imyaka irenga 20 irashize, abantu banigwa nk’ intama ntibakopfore. Igihe kibaye kirekire inzirakarengane zicurirwa amadosiye  zikarimburwa n’Urukiko rwakagombye kuzirenganura. Imyaka ibaye myinshi FPR Inkotanyi ikina wa mukino w’intare ikurira umwana ikakurusha kurakara. Trop c’est trop.

Iyi “match” yo si  nk’ izisanzwe. Hari ubwo ku munsi wa rwo  umuhigi wa cyane azinduka mu rukerera uko yabimenyereye ariko akaza kwisanga ari we ubwe wahindutse umuhigo,  “ Mwinda akawa mwindwa”!

Uwishuka ni nde ? Ni uwibwira ko Padiri Evariste Nambaje, mu gitondo yishwemo, yaba yarasohotse mu rugo atavuze umuhamagaye ari na we uzi ibanga ry’uko yishwe!

Twifurije amahirwe masa “abatechniciens” b’amadosiye!

Ministeri y’ubutegetsi bw’igihugu yitabye Komisiyo ya Politiki, uburinganire n’ubwuzuzanye mu iterambere ry’igihugu, mu Nteko Ishinga Amategeko, kugira ngo yisobanure ku bibazo byagaragajwe na raporo yakozwe n’Umuvunyi ku bikigaragara mu mibereho y’abarokotse jenocide yakorewe abatutsi n’ikigega kibatera inkunga FARG.

Abagize iyi komisiyo basabye iyi ministere kunoza imibare,nyuma y’uko ivuze ko imibare yatanzwe muri iyi raporo y’umuvunyi ihabanye n’imibare nyayo.

Abaturage bakunze gukoresha inyito ngo ni tekiniki, bashaka kuvuga raporo mpimbano, cyangwa zibumbatiye kwesa imihigo, nyamara atariko bimeze.

Nonese yaba ari FARG yabeshye ko yubakiye abarokotse Jenoside bose, mu gihe umuvunyi we yaragaje ko abagera ku 2,000 bose nta macumbi bafite ?

Ibyo byatumye umwe mu ba Depite yibaza ati : “Ubuse turemera ibyande tureke ibya nde ? Inzego ebyiri zakabaye zuzanya ko ziri kubusanya mu mibare ?”

Undi mudepite nawe aribaza ati : “Ni gute umuvunyi avuga ko ari ubwa mbere abonye iyo mibare, wabaza MINALOC nabo bakavuga ko bataganariye n’umuvunyi. Kandi izo nzego zombie zakabaye zuzuzanya.”

Nyuma y’impaka hagati y’abagize iyi komisiyo na MINALOC, zibanze ku mibare y’iyo minisiteri igaragara ko inyuranye cyane, n’iyatanzwe na raporo y’umuvunyi, igaragaza imiryango isaga ibihumbi bibili y’abarokotse jenoside kugeza ubu batarubakirwa amacumbi.

FARG yanze kwemera imibare yatangajwe na raporo y’umuvunyi, ivuga ko imiryango yose y’abarokotse yamaze kubona amacumbi, gusa ngo hakiri utubazo dutuma haboneka abandi batarubakirwa.

Ruberangeyo Theophile ni umuyobozi wa FARG yavuze ati : “Hari bake batari bubakirwa, kubera utubazo dutandukanye, nko kuba batarabaruwe mbere.”

Uku kutumvikana ku mibare, kwatunguye abagize komisiyo ya Politike uburinganire n’ubwuzuzanye mu iterambere ry’igihugu, bituma bakemanga ukuntu inzego zikwiye kuzuzanya zitumvikana ku mibare.

Ministere y’ubutegetsi bw’igihugu yemera ko itaganiriye n’umuvunyi kuri iyi raporo, ibi bikaba bisaba ko bahura mu gihe gito bagahuza iyi mibare.

Ibindi bibazo iyi minisiteri yatanzeho ibisobanuro birimo miliyoni zisaga 41 ikigega FARG kitishyuye ibigo by’amashuri n’izindi zirenga 130 zakoreshejwe mu buryo budasobanutse.

Rwanda, déjà 20 ans : une tragédie devenue une fiction impériale utile. LA RESPONSABILITÉ DE WASHINGTON DANS LE MASSACRE AU RWANDA EN 1994

Rwanda, déjà 20 ans : une tragédie devenue une fiction impériale utile

La responsabilité de Washington dans le massacre au Rwanda en 1994

Le 6 avril 2014 marquera le 20e anniversaire de l’attentat au missile à Kigali qui a abattu l’avion transportant deux chefs d’État africains, Juvénal Habyarimana du Rwanda et Cyprien Ntaryamira du Burundi. Nous savons que ce crime terroriste – sans doute le pire des années 1990 – a déclenché une guerre sans fin, de la destruction et des massacres au Rwanda et au Congo. Or, ce crime n’a jamais été élucidé; personne n’a été amené en justice. Malgré l’aveuglement et l’amnésie volontaires à l’égard du crime le plus critique des tragédies rwandaises et congolaises, des politiciens, des diplomates, des commentateurs, des intellectuels ainsi que des présidents, généraux et premiers ministres à la retraite invoquent constamment le « Rwanda » comme si la seule mention de ce mot accorde de la vérité et de l’autorité morale sur les positions politiques, militaires et impériales qu’ils défendent. On a invoqué spécifiquement le « Rwanda » pour justifier l’intervention militaire violente en Libye, au Soudan, au Mali, en Syrie et en République centrafricaine. « Partout, c’est le ‘Rwanda’ pour l’impérialiste humanitaire », fait remarquer Max Forte dans son livre remarquable, Slouching Towards Sirte, NATO’s War on Libya and Africa.

Voici le récit officiel – et assourdissant – qui leur permettrait d’invoquer le « Rwanda » :

1) de terribles génocidaires Hutus du Rwanda ont préparé et mis en œuvre un plan satanique pour éliminer près d’un million de Tutsis après l’écrasement mystérieux de l’avion transportant le président rwandais le 6 avril 1994;

2) le Front patriotique rwandais dirigé par Paul Kagame, stratège militaire brillant et aujourd’hui président du Rwanda, stationné à la frontière de l’Ouganda au nord-est du pays, a pénétré au Rwanda et marché sur la capitale pour mettre fin au génocide et prendre le pouvoir;

3) la communauté internationale n’a pas levé le petit doigt pendant que des tueurs, semblables aux Nazis, ont exterminé la plupart des Tutsis du Rwanda;

4) Paul Kagame a transformé ce pays déchiré par le génocide en un miracle africain grâce à son leadership visionnaire, quoique sévère.

Nous avons ainsi appris du « Rwanda » que, à l’avenir et au nom de l’humanité, nous – soit les armées de l’Amérique du Nord et de l’Europe – devons intervenir militairement pour empêcher ces peuples de s’entretuer.

Paul Kagame

 “100 % la responsabilité américaine”—Boutros Boutros-Ghali

Boutros Boutros-Ghali, secrétaire général de l’ONU pendant la guerre rwandaise, fut l’un des premiers à mettre une fissure dans ce récit. Il m’a déclaré en entrevue que, « le génocide Rwandais était à 100 % la responsabilité américaine ». Celui, que les officiels du département d’État des États-Unis appelaient « Frenchie » avant de l’éjecter de son siège à l’ONU, explique : « Les États-Unis, avec l’appui énergique de la Grande-Bretagne, ont tout fait pour empêcher le mise en place au Rwanda d’une force des Nations Unies, et ils y sont parvenus. »

Des documents déclassifiés de l’administration Clinton confirme que l’ambassadrice étasunienne à l’ONU a reçu le 15 avril 1994 des directives du département d’État lui intimant de prendre tous les moyens pour s’assurer du retrait du Rwanda des troupes onusiennes de l’UNAMIR et de s’assurer qu’il n’y a plus de débats ni de résolutions à ce sujet. Ainsi, lorsque le FPR a repris la guerre le 6 avril au même moment où l’avion présidentiel a été abattu, la politique de Washington ne consistait pas à obtenir un cessez-le-feu. Cela qui aurait été la seule politique juste, logique et légitime en vertu de l’Accord de paix d’Arusha, que les deux parties ont signé en août 1993 dans le cadre d’un « processus de paix » que Washington, soutenu par Londres et Paris, avaient parrainé, au nom de l’ONU.

Toutes les preuves sérieuses et des témoignages sous serment indiquent que Paul Kagame et le FPR sont les auteurs de l’attentat du 6 avril contre les présidents du Rwanda et du Burundi. Cet attentat jumelé au blitzkrieg de la reprise de la guerre – ce qui révèle que le FPR était préparé et informé au préalable de l’attentat – dément le récit voulant que le FPR soit descendu du nord du pays pour mettre fin au génocide. C’était « choc et stupeur » sur Kigali.

La politique de Washington, en violation de l’Accord d’Arusha, consistait à créer des conditions d’une victoire décisive de l’armée du FPR – quel qu’en soit le coût. Au diable le partage du pouvoir prévu par l’Accord d’Arusha; cela aurait menotté le FPR et empêché qu’il domine militairement la région des Grands lacs africains. Tandis que les États-Unis et le Royaume-Uni faisaient bloc contre toute tentative de paix, ce qui aurait permis de mettre fin aux tueries, l’histoire officielle serait comme suit : nous avons tous, la « communauté internationale » en entier, avons simplement abandonné les Tutsis au Rwanda; par conséquent, nous devons dire en chœur, sous la direction de Bill Clinton et de Madeleine Albright, dire « Mea culpa, mea culpa; plus jamais ».

D’anciens proches collaborateurs ont dissipé tout doute possible quant à la véracité de cette interprétation de la politique de Washington et du FPR. Théogène Rudasingwa, ancien ambassadeur du Rwanda aux États-Unis et chef de cabinet de Kagame, écrit : « Le FPR sentait qu’une force internationale allait geler la situation et enlever au FPR l’initiative militaire. Gerald Gahima et Claude Dusaidi ont expliqué cette position lors de réunions à Washington et à New York. » Rudasingwa ajoute que, en revanche : « Dans la campagne médiatique du FPR et à la Radio Muhabira, notre stratégie consistait à attaque le communauté internationale pour avoir abandonné le Rwanda. »  (Healing a Nation: Waging and Winning a Peaceful Revolution to Unite and Heal a Broken Rwanda, Createspace, 2014, p. 156).

Le « crime international suprême », sous le tapis

Le récit assourdissant sur le Rwanda enterre une autre vérité capitale, celle de la guerre qui a précédé l’attentat du 6 avril 1994. L’invasion du Rwanda le 1er octobre 1990 par 4000 troupes portant l’uniforme de l’armée ougandaise, qui formerait plus tard le FPR, n’était pas seulement une violation du droit international, elle a été le crime contre la paix, le « crime international suprême » selon les mot du juge Norman Birkett du tribunal de Nuremberg. (Dans sa sagesse infinie, le New York Times Magazine a qualifié l’invasion de « tensions accrues » entre Tutsis et Hutus.) Parmi ceux et celles qui invoquent le « Rwanda » pour justifier une intervention militaire humanitaire, personne ne mentionne ni l’invasion de 1990, ni l’occupation militaire du territoire rwandais, ni la guerre meurtrière qui a perduré pendant plus de 3 ans.

Un rapport de l’ONU sur le Congo d’octobre 2010 confirme que les tueries commises par l’armée rwandaise au Congo revêtaient un caractère génocidaire. Ça aurait dû sonner une autre alarme sur la nature du FPR et de son chef, Paul Kagame. Or, en revisitant la guerre au Rwanda de 1990 à 1994, on s’aperçoit que les tueries de masse ont commencé bien avant avril 1994. Et c’est le FPR qui en était responsable. Les Rwandais ont connu, avant 1994, ce qui les Congolais ont subi à partir de 1996

Une justice des vainqueurs contredit le récit officiel

Qu’en est-il des plans d’exterminer les Tutsis? Personne ne conteste le fait qu’il y a eu des massacres massifs au Rwanda en 1994. Mais le problème pour les défenseurs du récit officiel, c’est que les faits avérés ne sont pas au rendez-vous. Même si l’ONU a établi en 1995 un tribunal des vainqueurs – le Tribunal pénal international pour le Rwanda – doté des pouvoirs et des moyens nécessaires, en ce qui concerne le chef d’accusation fondamental, soit une entente en vue de commettre un génocide, l’homme qui aura été constamment accusé d’être le « cerveau » du génocide, Théoneste Bagosora, ainsi que ses trois accusés ont tous été acquittés de ce chef d’accusation. Après 18 ans de procès, de témoignages sous serment et de preuves, les faits révélés contredisent le récit officiel.

L’armée et les gendarmes rwandais, qui, seuls, auraient été en mesure de mettre fin aux tueries d’avril à juillet 1994, ne pouvaient le faire car ils étaient engagés dans une guerre à finir avec une machine militaire puissante, soit celle du Front patriotique rwandais. Et cette armée jouissait de l’appui politique, diplomatique et militaire de deux pays puissants, les États-Unis et le Royaume-Uni.

Ces deux puissances, soutenus par certains pays laquais, ont ainsi semé la mort et la destruction à une échelle inégalée en Afrique centrale. Mais ces deux pays et deux anciens dirigeants vedettes, Bill Clinton et Tony Blair, ont le front de transformer ces tragédies inouïes en fiction impériale utile pour justifier d’autres interventions militaires, surtout en Afrique.

Barack Obama seeks European support for harder line on Russia sanctions

Russian troops storm one of last Ukrainian bases in Crimea as US president arrives in Netherlands for talks with G7 countries

Barack Obama arrives on Monday morning in the Netherlands, where he will try to gauge how far European allies are willing to go to stop Moscow from moving deeper into Ukraine after annexing Crimea.

The US president is visiting Europe for talks with fellow leaders of the Group of Seven industrial democracies, when he will try to persuade them to increase pressure on Russia.

It comes as Russian troops backed by helicopters stormed a Ukrainian naval base on the Crimea peninsula early on Monday, one of the few military facilities that was still flying a Ukrainian flag in Crimea after Russia’s annexation.

First Lieutenant Anatoly Mozgovoy told Reuters on the phone from inside the base that there were shots fired and that the Ukrainian soldiers were driven away.

Ukrainian army officer First Lieutenant Anatoly Mozgovoy told Reuters by phone from inside the compound on Monday that the Russians had fired shots and the Ukrainian soldiers were unarmed. Asked if the base had been taken over, he said: “Yes.”

“The invading troops were using stun grenades and also firing automatic weapons. The interior of the compound is full of Russian troops,” said Vladislav Seleznyov, a Ukrainian military spokesman in Crimea.

Seleznyov said Russian forces were taking away all Ukrainian officers from the base to another location in the city for questioning.

Russian troops used armoured vehicles, automatic gunfire and stun grenades to take the Ukrainian Belbek airbase on Saturday. The Russian flag is now flying at 189 Ukrainian military bases in the Crimea.

Obama, whose trip includes visits to Belgium, Italy and Saudi Arabia, has threatened US sanctions against key sectors of the Russian economy. European allies have far closer economic ties to Russia than the United States and their still-fragile economies could face a backlash if they get tough with Moscow.

Russia provides almost a third of the EU’s gas needs and some 40 percent of the gas is shipped through Ukraine.

“Europeans are committed to do something,” said Jeffrey Mankoff, a Russian analyst at the Center for Strategic International Studies. “I think it’ll be difficult to convince them to go anywhere near where the United States would like to go.”

Russia’s abrupt annexation of the Crimea region of southern Ukraine has presented Obama with an urgent foreign policy challenge, one that may weigh heavily on a second term that he would have preferred to devote to domestic affairs.

Privately, there is some doubt among US officials that Russian president Vladimir Putin can be persuaded to relinquish his grip on Crimea, where he took advantage of the ousting of pro-Moscow Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych to make a move.

While refusing to concede the loss of Crimea, Obama’s goal in Europe is to lead an effort to isolate Russia and dissuade Putin from moving into southern or eastern Ukraine.

“Our interest is not in seeing the situation escalate and devolve into hot conflict,” White House national security adviser Susan Rice told reporters. “Our interest is in a diplomatic resolution, de-escalation, and obviously economic support for Ukraine, and to the extent that it continues to be necessary, further costs imposed on Russia for its actions.”

Obama has imposed sanctions on 31 people in a campaign carefully crafted to target Russian officials with links to Putin without creating a backlash against US businesses.

But officials said Obama is prepared to launch widespread penalties against key sectors of Russia’s economy, such as its energy industry, should Putin move into southern or eastern Ukraine.

On Wednesday in Brussels, Obama will talk about ways to beef up Nato with Nato secretary-general Anders Fogh Rasmussen. A speech at Brussels’ Palais des Beaux Arts will focus on the importance of the transatlantic alliance.

“Obviously, the situation in the Ukraine will factor heavily into his presentation. It only reinforces the need for the United States to remain committed to a strong transatlantic alliance,” said Ben Rhodes, the White House deputy national security adviser.

Obama is facing pressure from Republican lawmakers to do more to bolster Nato allies near Russia, such as the Baltic nations, and quickly move to stronger sanctions.

“We need to send a message to Vladimir Putin through stronger sanctions. We need him to understand that the sanctions that we put in place can have a significant impact on his economy, that we need to deter further action from him,” Republican Senator Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire told CBS’ Meet the Press.

Obama will have more on his plate than Ukraine this week. On Monday he will join allies for a nuclear security summit at The Hague and will sit down separately for talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping, their first face-to-face meeting since a G20 summit in Russia.

On Tuesday, he will participate in a three-way summit with Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe and South Korea president Park Geun-Hye to try to defuse tensions between the Asian powerhouses ahead of an Obama visit to Asia in April.

Obama will also discuss with European leaders on Wednesday in Brussels a proposed Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership agreement and joint efforts to reach a comprehensive agreement with Iran to contain its nuclear program.

The European Union’s ambassador to the United States, Joao Vale de Almeida, said Europeans hope the US-EU summit will be a “clear restatement of the importance of our transatlantic ties”.

Iyo nta bisubizo bihari, buri, wese yitakana abandi. Ng’uko uko byifashe mu Rwanda

Umuyobozi mukuru w’ikigega kigenewe gutera inkunga abacitse ku icumu rya Jenoside yakorewe Abatutsi muri Mata 1994 batishoboye (FARG), Theophile Ruberangeyo, ndetse n’Umunyamabanga wa Leta muri Minisiteri y’Ubutegetsi bw’igihugu n’imibereho myiza y’abaturage, Dr Mukabaramba Alvera, ibisobanuro byababanye iyanga ku makosa agaragazwa na raporo y’Umuvunyi, nabo bashinja kutuzura.

Aba bayobozi bombi bari bitabye Komisiyo ya Politiki, uburinganire n’ubwuzuzanye bw’abagore n’abagabo mu iterambere ry’igihugu mu nteko ishinga amategeko y’u Rwanda, kuri uyu wa Gatanu tariki 22 Werurwe 2014, aho bakomeje kugaragaza gutungurwa n’amakosa berekwaga akubiye muri iyi raporo yananyujijwe imbere ya Minisitiri w’intebe.

Ubugenzuzi bwakozwe n’Urwego rw’Umuvunyi mu Kwakira 2012 kugeza muri Mata 2013, bugashyirwa muri raporo yashyikirijwe Minisitiri w’Intebe Dr Habumuremyi Pierre Damien, ndetse n’Inteko Ishinga Amategeko, bugaragaza ko hari ibikoresho by’ishuri byaguzwe na FARG bigenewe abanyeshuri bacitse ku icumu byandagaye hirya no hino mu Turere bitigeze bishyikirizwa abo bigenewe nk’uko byari biteganyijwe.

Iyi raporo kandi igaragaza ko mu mafaranga yagenewe FARG agera kuri miliyoni 130 n’ibuhumbi 783 n’amafaranga 706, ubuyobozi bwa FARG butabasha gusobanura imikoreshereze yayo ndetse n’amafaranga arenga miliyoni 86 n’ibihumbi 854 n’amafaranga 947 yakoreshejwe indi mirimo idafite aho ihuriye n’ibikorwa biterwa inkunga na FARG.

Ubu bugenzuzi kandi bukomeza bwerekana ko hari n’ibigo by’amashuri byo mu turere icyenda, FARG ibereyemo umwenda ungana na 41,810,138 biba byarahaye ubumenyi n’abana FARG ibereye umubyeyi ariko byakwandikira FARG byishyuza ikavunira ibiti mu matwi.

Atanga ibisobanuro kuri ibi bibazo, Umunyamabanga wa Leta muri Minisiteri y’Ubutegetsi bw’igihugu, Dr Mukabaramba Alvera yavuze ko ibigaragara muri iyi raporo ibyinshi byakemutse ndetse anavuga ko igaragaramo ibibazo byagaragaraga mu mwaka wa 2010, ubu ibyinshi bikaba byarabonewe umuti.

Dr Mukabaramba avuga ko iyi raporo igaragaza imibare yo muri 2010, kandi igenzura ryakozwe mu mwaka wa 2012-2013, yavuze ko kuva mu mwaka wa 1998 kugeza muri 2004, FARG yaguraga ibikoresho by’abanyeshuri ikabishyikiriza uturere, uturere na two tukabigeza ku bigo, ariko mu mwaka wa 2005, FARG yagiranye amasezerano n’ibigo by’amashuri ko bizajya byakira abanyeshuri bikaha n’ibikoresho, maze ikazabishyurira rimwe mu gihe cyo gutanga amafaranga y’ishuri.

Yagize ati “Ubu FARG isigaye itanga matelas zonyine, gusa tukimenya ko hari ibikoresho bikiri mu Turere twahise twandika ibaruwa dusaba ko ibi bikoresho byahabwa abagenerwabikorwa ba FARG biga mu mashuri y’uburezi bw’ibanze bw’imyaka icyenda na 12, ubwo rero niba hari ibikiriyo ni amakosa y’uturere.”

Nyamara ariko n’ubwo avuga gutya, Theophile Ruberangeyo, Umunyamabanga Nshingwabikorwa wa FARG, nawe wari mu bagomba kwisobanura yavuze ko ibaruwa yandikiwe uturere idusaba gutanga ibi bikoresho birimo amakaye, amakaramu na ‘set’ yanditswe mu mwaka wa 2011, kandi ikibazo cyaratangiye kugaragara 2005.

Aba bayobozi bakomeje kwerekana ko batemeranya n’iyi raporo y’Urwego rw’Umuvunyi, kuko ku birebana n’imyenda babereyemo ibigo by’amashuri, bagaragaje ko nta kigo na kimwe cyishyuje babereyemo umwenda, ngo kuko mu mwaka wa 2010 FARG ifatanyije n’izindi nzego zirimo iz’uburezi bakoze inama bakemeza ko bagiye kwishyura ibi bigo mu gihe cy’amezi abiri.

Uyu muyobozi yakomeje avuga ko amafaranga yakoreshejwe nabi, Umuvunyi yagaragaje ko batayazi ngo kuko muri iyi raporo batagaraje igihe aya mafaranga yanyererejwemo. Aha nta bintu byinshi bigeze bongeraho. Yagize ati “Nta ‘information’ nta amakuru tubifiteho.”

Imyaka 20 ishize hakiri abarokotse badafite aho kuba. Raporo y’Umuvunyi kandi ikomeza igaragaza ko kuva mu mwaka wa 1998 kugeza muri 2012, Leta y’u Rwanda yashyize muri iki kigega amafaranga miliyari 19 na miliyoni 319 n’ibihumbi 788 n’amafaranga 805, agenewe kubakira abacitse ku icumu batishoboye, ariko kugeza ubu hakaba hakiri imiryango 2 800 itarabona amacumbi.

Kuri iyi ngingo, Umunyamabanga wa Leta muri Minisiteri y’Ubutegetsi bw’igihugu, yatangaje ko imibare igaragazwa n’Umuvunyi, ntaho ihuriye n’iyo bafite n’ibyo bamaze gukora.

Yavuze ko Raporo igaragaza ko Leta yabahaye miliyari 19 zisaga kandi barahawe miliyari 21, akomeza avuga ko ikibazo cy’amacumbi cyakomezaga kizenguruka abantu ntibubakirwe, ariko nyuma mu mwaka wa 2010 bakaza gukora igenzura mu gihugu cyose bareba abantu bakenewe kubakirwa n’abakeneye gusanirwa.

Gusa n’ubwo aba bayobozi bagera imbere y’inteko bamwe bakemera ibyo raporo iba ibashinja ndetse bagahakana bagatsemba basoza bavuga ko bagiye kwikubita agashyi mu mikorere. FARG na MINALOC baje nyuma ya MINEFRA nayo yabuze ibisobanuro bihagije ku gihombo cya miliyari ebyiri zisaga z’Amadorali y’Amerika Leta ya hombye mu kubaka ingomero nto indwi.

Mukabaramba Alivera na Theophile Ruberangeyo ubwo bari ku ngoro y’Inteko Ishinga Amategeko y’u Rwanda
