Many observers and commentators have argued that the reasons for some countries' refusal to intervene in Rwanda to stop the genocide include political, cultural and economic geostrategic interests in the African Great Lakes Region. In reality, the main reason was western racism against black people: Let them kill each others. Let them die because they killed Tutsi. After the UN Report has been watered down to please Kagame, some few western individual allies of Kagame have now launched malicious, dangerous and irresponsible propaganda and speculations to promote the impunity in the African Great Lakes Region by arguing that Kagame should not face justice because he brought economic prosperity and stability in Rwanda. But they deliberately forget that Rwanda was more economic prosperous before Kagame took power and that Kagame was responsible of the instability of Rwanda when he imposed a 5-year war to his own country.
Other pro-Kagame western propagandists and extremists have now started to qualify the UN report as controversial. They are promoting their wishful thinking that the UN Report will destabilise the entire region. They are now working hard to promote further violence and genocide in the African Great Lakes Region to undermine the positive aspects of the UN report to end the cycles of violence and impunity in the region.
They argue that because Kagame's forces are participating in the UN peace keeping missions (that financially benefit Kagame's regime), and that the genocide of Hutus in DR Congo took place long time ago, those who have been perpetrating the crimes in DRC should not face justice. (Remember, Rwandan government is participating in UN peacekeeping missions on voluntary basis).
Nowhere in the world, the cosmetic economic prosperity of a country should replace human rights and justice.
Kagame and some Western NGOs which were operating in the Hutu refugee camps in DR Congo imagined and exaggerated the threats of refugees’ attack on Rwanda and facilitated the Rwandan forces to attack the refugees camps where many of the refugees were abandoned, killed and other were pushed into forests, pursued and massacred by Kagame’s soldiers.
According to these NGOs and some western powers who refused to intervene in Rwanda to stop the genocide, this Kagame’s attack of refugees camps was the right decision because all refugees including children, women, disabled people and elderly were labelled as genocidaires.
This western racism will continue to obstruct and block any prospects of bringing to justice the killers of Hutus in Rwanda during the Rwandan war and the killers of Hutus refugees in D. R. Congo.
