RWANDA:Politiki : Uwaroze u Rwanda ntiyakarabye !

From the Veritas

Itegekonshinga rishobora guhindurwa kugirango Kagame azakore manda ya gatatu. Ntawe uzi niba icyemezo cyararangije gufatwa ubu hakaba hasigaye gutegura uburyo kizashyirwa mu bikorwa ariko ikigaragara nuko inkuru ya politiki ikomeye ubu mu « gihugu cy’ibibazo igihumbi » ari irangira rya manda ya kabiri ya Paul Kagame mu w’2017, akaba agomba kubona uburyo yasobanura ko azakomeza kuyobora igihugu n’ubwo itegekonshinga yatoresheje ubwe mu w’2003 ritabyemera. Ngo ntawe usimbura ikipe irimo gutsinda, ayo ni amagambo intore zirimo gukoresha zumvikanisha ko Kagame ariwe ugomba gukomeza kuyobora igihugu ahubwo itegekonshinga akaba ariryo rihindurwa.

Iyo nkuru y’incamugongo (kuri bamwe) tuyikesha ikinyamakuru Igihe.com aho gitangaza iby’ inama ya FPR Perezida Kagame yayoboye tariki ya 8 gashyantare 2013, iyo nama ikaba yarabereye kuri sitade i Remera. Mu by’ukuri iyo nama yabaye nk’itegura abanyarwanda kuri icyo gitekerezo cy’uko muw’2017 nta kizahinduka uretse itegekonshinga.

Natangiye ngira nti : « ntawe uzi niba icyemezo cyarangije gufatwa ». Impamvu nuko Kagame ubwe nta mwanzuro yatanze kuri icyo kibazo, yasabye ahubwo abari aho kuri sitade kugitahana bakakizirikana bitonze kugirango bazamuhe igisubizo cyatekerejweho neza. Aha hakwiye gusesengurwa neza. Kagame avuga biriya yarimo guteganya ko niyumva byakiriwe neza azavuga ati : nk’uko abanyarwanda babyifuje itegekonshinga ryariho tugiye kurivugurura kugirango nshobore kongera kwiyamamaza.

Ikindi yateganyaga nuko bishobora kutakirwa neza, akazaba rero agifite uburyo bwo kuvuga ati : n’ubwo hari abaturage bifuzaga ko twahindura itegekonshinga njyewe ndabona tugomba kuryubahiriza. Abo Kagame atinya ko batakwakira neza uriya mushinga wo guhindura itegekonshinga ntabwo ari abanyarwanda kuko n’ubundi azi ko bategekeshejwe igitugu. Abantu atinya ni abanyamahanga, cyane cyane ibihugu bisanzwe bimutera inkunga. Ubu afite ibibazo by’uko bamwe bahagaritse cyangwa bakagabanya inkunga yabo bitewe na biriya by’intambara yo muri Kongo, haramutse havutse ibindi bibazo bituma inkunga zirushaho kugabanuka yabura amafranga yo guhemba ba basirikare be barenga ibihumbi 60 (bamwe bavuga ko bagera no ku bihumbi 100), yabura n’andi mafranga menshi akoresha mu bunetsi no mu bindi biha ingufu buriya butegetsi bwe bw’igitugu.

Buriya leta ya FPR yagiye ifashwa ku mpamvu z’uko yashoboye kubeshya amahanga ko igamije gushyiraho ubutegetsi bubereye abaturage kandi bakazajya babwishyiriraho. Gushyira mu itegekonshinga umubare ntarengwa wa manda byari uburyo bwo kubeshya ayo mahanga ko hatagamijwe gutsimbarara ku butegetsi. Niyo mpamvu kubihindura byateza ibibazo. Byumvikane neza ntabwo mvuze ko ibihugu bifasha u Rwanda bidukunda cyangwa bidushakira demokarasi. Ariko ni ngombwa kumva ko muri biriya bihugu abari ku butegetsi batinya opinion y’abaturage babo. Ibyandikwa mu binyamakuru biba bishobora kubagiraho ingaruka. Niyo mpamvu baba bakeneye amakuru meza aturuka mu gihugu baha imfashanyo.

Ibi rero bivuga ko abanyarwanda batemera uriya mugambi wo kuvugurura itegekonshinga hagamijwe kugirango Kagame azabone manda ya gatatu bafite uburyo bwo kuwurwanya. Bahagurukanye ingufu bakabyamagana, amahanga akabibona ko icyo kibazo gikomeye  ntabwo Kagame yazatinyuka gukomeza iriya gahunda yo gushaka manda ya gatatu. Ibyo birasaba kugira opozisiyo ishyize hamwe kuko ikibazo nka kiriya abantu bagihagurukira icyarimwe.

Kuki itegekonshinga ryateganyije manda ebyiri gusa ? 

Ni byiza kongera kwibutsa ko igihe itegekonshinga ryatorwaga  mu mwaka w’2003 hashyizweho ingingo y’101 iteganya ko umukuru w’igihugu adashobora kurenza manda ebyiri. Icyo byari bigamije kirakomeye cyane.  Kwari ukwanga ko umukuru w’igihugu yatsimbarara ku butegetsi igihe kirekire ari byo bivamo kunanirwa no gushora igihugu mu makuba. Kuyobora igihugu ni umurimo ukomeye cyane, usaba ingufu nyinshi.

Byongeye kandi hari abandi baba bifuza uwo murimo kugirango nabo berekeze igihugu mu nzira babona ariyo ikwiye (wenda hari n’ababa bagamije ibyubahiro n’andi maronko ariko icyo ni ikindi kibazo). Gushyiraho umubare ntarengwa wa manda  biha abo bandi amahirwe  yo kuba nabo bawuhatanira badaciye mu nzira zimena amaraso. Icyo gitekerezo cyo kugira umubare ntarengwa ntabwo ari gishya, ni ko bigenda mu bihugu twavuga ko bifite demokarasi nyayo. Muri ibyo bihugu kirazira ntawe ukinisha guhindura itegekonshinga kugirango umutegetsi Runaka abone uko yiyongeza  indi manda. Kirazira rwose.

 Iriya mvugo intore za Kagame zakoresheje ngo ntawe usimbura ikipe irimo gutsinda ni amaco y’inda gusa. Gusimbura umukuru w’igihugu ucyuye igihe ubwabyo biteye ishema, ni ukubahiriza itegekonshinga ry’igihugu. Ntaho rero bihuriye no guhindura abakinnyi b’umupira. Ese ubundi leta ya Kagame uwayigereranya n’ikipe wavuga ute ko irimo gutsinda kandi bizwi ko icya kabiri cy’ingengo y’imari yakoreshwaga cyaturukaga mu mfashanyo z’amahanga none izo mfashanyo zikaba zirimo guhagarikwa? Ese ibyo ni byo bita gutsinda? Igihugu kirimo kwamaganwa kubera gushoza intambara mu baturanyi ubwo kirimo gutsinda ibitego? Ahubwo igihe cyararenze cyo gusimbura ikipe, niyo nkomoko y’ibibazo igihugu gifite ubu.

Kuki bamwe bibwira ko Kagame atasimburwa ngo amahoro atahe?  

Ikinyamakuru Igihe.com cyatugejejeho iby’iriya nama yo kuri sitade i Remera cyavuze ko Kagame yari yazanye amabarwa abaturage bamwe bamwandikiye bamusaba kuzakora manda ya gatatu. Ngo hari n’uwanditse ko azahunga umunsi azumva ko Kagame yavuye ku butegetsi. Iyo icyo kinyamakuru gikora ubushakashatsi buhagije cyajya kubona abandi bantu bifuza ko ubutegetsi buriho mu Rwanda bwasimburwa kugirango babone uburyo bwo kwibuka ababo baguye mu ntambara, banabashyingure mu cyubahiro cyangwa kugirango nabo bave mu buhungiro. Itegekonshinga riberaho abaturage bose, ntabwo ari igice kimwe gusa.

Iriya nama ya FPR aho kuganisha ku ihindurwa ry’itekonshinga yajyaga gusaba abayoboke ba FPR gutegura umukandida wabo uzasimbura Paul Kagame kuko we azaba acyuye igihe kandi akaba atemerewe kongera  kwiyamamaza. Ndahamya ko ibyo byajyaga kuba ari uburyo bwo guteza imbere demokarasi mu Rwanda. Andi mashyaka nayo yajyaga kuboneraho agatangira gutenga abakandida bayo adafite ubwoba bwo guhangana n’umutegetsi uzwiho gukoresha iterabwoba.

Ese kuki  abanyamuryango ba FPR bumva bagomba gucungira kuri Kagame wenyine kugeza aho  batekereza ko nta wundi wayobora igihugu? Ubu koko muri FPR haba mu gisilikare cyangwa mu gisivili  habuze abandi bagabo cyangwa abagore bafite ubushake bwo kuba bayobora igihugu? Habuze koko abafata inkoni y’ubutware bagakomereza aho Kagame yari ageze cyangwa bagakosora amakosa yakoze?

Baramutse badahari nabyo si impamvu yo guhindura itegekonshinga kuko mu yandi mashyaka yaba ari imbere mu gihugu  yaba n’ari hanze y’abanyarwanda b’impunzi abantu nk’abo barahari kandi bifuza kugira uruhare mu buyobozi bw’igihugu cyabo.

Ese muri FPR ndani habamo akanunu ka demokarasi?

Hari ikibazo umuntu wese yakwibaza amaze gusoma iby’iriya nama ya FPR yabereye kuri sitade y’I Remera:  ese muri FPR haba hakibamo urwego bita bureau politique? Urwo rwego ubusanzwe ni rwo ruterana rugasuzuma ibibazo nka biriya bikomeye, umwanzuro uvuyemo ukamenyeshwa  abanyamuryango bandi ndetse na rubanda rusanzwe. Ese mama kuki  Chairman wa FPR yahisemo kujyana ikibazo nka kiriya gikomeye kuri sitade kitarigwa muri bureau politique? Cyaba se cyarahanyuze ntitubimenye? Ikigaragara nuko inama yo kuri sitade ari nka mitingi, ntabwo ariho abanyapolitriki b’inararibonye batinyuka kuvuguruza umuyobozi w’ishyaka, cyane cyane uwo muyobozi ari Paul Kagame. Muri bureau politique (akenshi) abantu baba bafite ubushobozi bwo kujya impaka, umwanzuro ugaturuka ku ngingo zatanzwe. Twavuga se ko mu bagize bureau politique harimo amacakubiri ku buryo chairman ahitamo kujyana ikibazo kuri sitade aho intore n’inkundarubyino zidashobora kumuvuguruza?

Reka nsoze nibutsa inama y’ubuntu kandi ikomeye Barack Obama yatanze ubwo yasuraga igihugu cya Ghana mu ntangiriro za manda ye ya mbere.  Yagize ati: “Icyo Afurika ikeneye ntabwo ari abategetsi b’ibihangange ahubwo ikeneye inzego z’ubutegetsi zikomeye. Ni muri urwo rwego mbona guha agaciro itegekonshinga ari ngombwa. Ntabwo ari kositimu yadodewe umutegetsi Runaka, yananuka bakayigabanya cyangwa yabyibuha bakayongera.

Kwihesha agaciro byari bikwiye gutangirira ku kubaha amategeko twishyiriyeho.

RWANDA:Ngo Perezida Paul Kagame azicwa muri 2013 ! Paul Mbangurunuka.

 

De : Mbangurunuka Paul

 

 

Mbere ya byose mbaje kwifuriza Noheli nziza , Abahutu bose n’Abatutsi bose babogamiye kuri Kagame Paul. Ibi mbivugiye ku mpamvu y’uko, iyi Noheli ishobora kuba ariyo ya nyuma yaba igiye kwizihizwa nabo mvuze hejuru. Muti gute?

 

Mbere yo kubasubiza, ndabanza mbamenyesheko bwana Paul Kagame agiye kujya mukebo kamwe n’ako yagereyemo Habyarimana Juvénal. Uyu mugabo udashyitse ariko akaba yarigize akaraha kajyahe, ntagihindutse. Uyu mwaka uje 2013 ntawumara kandi si umuhutu umwica, si n’umututsi uri hanze cyangwa se ba mpatse ibihugu bagomba kumwivugana. Oya, nitwebwe abana babana na we bamufitiye inzika z'uko yatumariye imiryango ubwo yaranyotowe n’ubutegetsi akagira imiryango yacu ikiraro kimugeza mu rugwiro, akadutoza inzira y’ubwicanyi, agacuruza amagufa y’Abacu nk’aho yabaduhaye akaduha n’ubushobozi bwo kubashyingura mu cyubahiro, hamwe n’ikindi gikundi cy'amahe amaze kurambirwa intambara ashoza, ukuntu yica akanatoteza abakuru bacu hamwe n’ababashyigikiye, n'ukuntu atonesha bamwe abandi akabaka kungufu ducye bafite. Ariko uko gupfa kwe, abahutu mwese ndabasabye ntimubyinire kurukoma kuko ntabwo arimpuhwe tubagiriye zo kumubakiza, ahubwo muzahagirira akaga katabaho kuberako uko Abatutsi baherekeje Habyarimana 1994 ninako namwe muzaherekeza Kagame 2013.

 

 Muhora murira mutakambira umuhisi n’umugenzi ngo ngaho mama abahutu mwakorewe jenoside. Ntabwo iriya ari jenoside, ni igisa nayo(aha munyumve neza). Jenoside nyirizina muzakorerwa ikanemerwa, niriya muzakorerwa muherekeza Kagame. Icyo gihe izaba ari jenoside, kuko muzapfa kwa ujumura ntakugenda dutoratoranya nk’uko byagiye bigenda mbere, icyo gihe umuhutu wese ruzaba rumugera amajanja, ntahepfo nta ruguru, ubuzima bwe buzaba burimucyo twise amazi abira.  Yego abahutu benshi barishwe, yemwe jye statistique yanjye (nkurikije la moyenne  yabicwaga kumunsi)  inyereka ko rwose abahutu twishe baruta kure Abatutsi bakorewe jenoside, ariko kuba uburyo abahutu bishwe atari ibintu byabanje gutegurwa nk’uko abatutsi byagenze, byatumye ubwicanyi bwabakorewe bukubwa na zeru buba ubusa. Ibyo rero bitandukanye n’ubwicanyi bugiye kuzabakorerwa Kagame tumaze kumwirenza, icyo gihe bizitwa jenoside kuko bizaba byarateguwe nyuma bigashyirwa mubikorwa. Ikindi kizatuma byitwa jenoside, nuko muzaba murihamwe ntahogucikira mufite, mbega bisa nigihe Abatutsi bicwaga kuko ntaho guhungira bari bafite. Mwikomeza kwita buriya bwicanyi mwagiriwe ngo ni Jenoside, muhumure nayo izabakorerwa ntarirarenga. Iyo ibategereje, ni iyi ikurikira (murumi rw’icyongereza):

 

By 'genocide' we mean the destruction of an ethnic group . . . . Generally speaking, genocide does not necessarily mean the immediate destruction of a nation, except when accomplished by mass killings of all members of a nation. It is intended rather to signify a coordinated plan of different actions aiming at the destruction of essential foundations of the life of national groups, with the aim of annihilating the groups themselves. The objectives of such a plan would be disintegration of the political and social institutions, of culture, language, national feelings, religion, and the economic existence of national groups, and the destruction of the personal security, liberty, health, dignity, and even the lives of the individuals belonging to such groups . . ..

 

1.Impamvu Kagame Paul agomba kwicwa n’impamvu yabitindije:

Byatangiye igihe yageragezaga kuvugira za kajorite ngo zubakirwe zinitabweho, Kagame ati wapi ntamafaranga, undi ati arahari numujinya mwinshi, Kagame arikanga. Bikomereza aho Minadef ifashe icyemezo cyo kugura indege (helicopter) zintambara, Kagame  kubera umururumba w’ifaranga doreko icyo gihe nawe mumufuka ntacyaricyakageramo kigaragara aca inyuma akora akazi adashinzwe yohereza umutype w’umusajya nawe ajya kuri black market  abazanira ibihwagari , Gen Kayumba ntiyigeze abyihanganira yasomeye Kagame kumugaragaro.

Bikomeza uko kayumba agenda atotezwa kugeza ahunze nyuma Kagame amukurikirana naho yahungiye ngo amwicwe.

 

Colonnel Patrick Karegeya:

 

 Uyu mubyange mubyemere ni Umugabo w’umuhanga cyane. Kuba rero Kagame yiha kwadagaza umugabo nk’uyu, bisa nk’aho aba arikwicukurira umwobo kandi atabizi. Karegeya yibukwa cyane igihe Kagame yamutumizaga ashaka kumwiyenzaho, nuko Kagame atangira kwisekeshwa bya nyirarureshwa n’uburyarya bwinshi, ati mbwira ukuntu ugenda uvuga ngo ntegekwa n’umugore? Karegeya kugirango amwereke ko yamurebye mubwonko, ati kagire inkuru? Kagame wariwiteguwe ko Karegeya ahita asaba imbabazi zibyo atakoze nk’uko ba Karake, Ibingira, Nziza, nabandi babikora, ntacyo yongeyeho ahubwo umunya wahise usumba izuru rye.

2. Impamvu Kagame Paul yatinze kwicwa

 

Ntayindi mpamvu ituma umugambi wo guhitana Kagame udakorwa, gusa nuko hari ibintu bibiri asigaje gutunganya ubundi kakamubaho.

 

-Agomba kubanza gucyura impunzi zose z’abahutu kugirango azaherekezwe ntawe asize inyuma. Ibi kandi bikaba byenda gushoboka, kuko akantu (bitugukwaha) yamaze gushyikirizwa abo igenewe, ndavuga abashinzwe impunzi. Ubwo rero iyi mpamvu ntibangamiye nagato umugambi wacu.

 

-Gushyira Kivu zombi mu maboko y’u Rwanda. Ibi biri hafi cyane kuranginzwa kuko igikorwa cyo cyatangiye kera.

 

Umwanzuro.

 

U Rwanda, igihugu cyiza cy’imisozi igihumbi, cyahuye n’ibibazo by’ingutu cyatewe nabakoloni Bababirigi  guhera mumpera za 1959. Ibyo bibazo byagwiriye amoko yose atuye igihugu, ariyo Abatutsi, abahutu n’abatwa, bihera kubatutsi bicwa 1959, 1962, 1963, 1973, 1975, 1994, bikomeza byadukira abahutu n’abatwa nabo baricwa 1990, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, nubu rukaba rukigeretse.  Hari benshi kumpande zombi babihombeyemo cyane, abo ni Abatutsi barokotse Genocide ya Mata 1994 kuko biciwe ababo basigirwa n’ubumuga buri spiritually, mentally, physically, emotionally, socially.

 

Hari nigice cy’abahutu kigirijweho nkana, abo bakaba ari abahutu bakomoka mugice cyatangirijwemo intambara n’Inkotanyi, cyane cyane Byumba na Ruhengeri, abo bacikacumu nabo basigiwe ubumuga buri physiquement, émotionnellement & socialement.

 

 Ibi byago byose byatewe nabagabo babiri gusa : Major General Juvénal Habyarimana, President of  Rwanda, from 1973 until 1994 na Major General Paul Kagame, President of Rwanda, March 2000, until 2013. Umwe yaratabarutse yishwe, yisasira imbaga y’Abatutsi itabarika bari baragiwe bicwa urusorongo kuva 1959, undi nawe rumuri hafi, azagenda(2013) ajyanye n’imbaga nyinshi y’abahutu agomba kwisasira, batangiye kwicwa urusorongo guhera 1990.

 

Ntaguhitamo kundi gusigaye inzira y’urupfu niwo mwanzuro kuri Paul Kagame wishe Abanyarwanda batabarika, agahindura ibisengegeri imbaga, akandavuza miliyoni hafi 11 yabaturarwanda, akanadodombya amamiliyoni yabanyekongo.

 

*Iyo Habyarimana aticwa, Bagosora ntaba yarashyize gahunda ze mubikorwa. Bisa n'ubu!!

RWANDA:Aho kwica Gitera nimwice ikibimutera. Nkusi Joseph.

Dr Nkusi Joseph, Umunyamabanga Mpuzabikorwa w'Ishyaka ISHEMA. Ashinzwe n'Intara y'amajyepfo....

Umutwe w’iyi nkuru ugizwe  n’amagambo yivugiwe n’umwami Rudahigwa mu gihe yari agiye mu ruzinduko rwe rwa nyuma mu Bubiligi. Akaba yarasubizaga intagondwa z’abatutsi zamubwiraga ko kugirango hapfukiranwe ibyifuzo bya rubanda yashakaga ko u Rwanda ruyoborwa muri Demokrasi bagomba kwica Habyarimana Yozefu Gitera  wari ku isonga y’abari muri iyo nkundura. Rudahigwa yabahaye igisubizo cyiza ati:” aho kwica Gitera nimwice ikibimutera”. Ubwo yahamagaje Gitera, amufata mu mashati n’umujinya mwinshi aramujuguta amukubita urushyi arigendera. Ntiyamushyize ku ngoyi cyangwa akandoyi, ntiyamukubise agafuni nta n’ubwo yamuhaye kuri twa tuzi twa Nziza, kuko yari azi ko umuntu ari ikiremwa cy’Imana yo yonyine ifite uburenganzira n’ububasha bwo kumukoresha icyo ishaka. Uku kwemera niko kwatumye Rudahigwa yiyemeza kwiyahura aho kugirango yime abaturage uburenganzira yabonaga ari ubwabo. Abenshi bavuga ko ari abazungu bamwishe bamuhaye amarozi, nyamara indirimbo zihimbaza ubutwari bwe zaririmbwaga mu Rwanda nyuma y’urupfu rwe zerekana ko yiyahuye. Imwe murizo ni iyavugaga ngo : “ Nkubito y’Imanzi yatanze adatinya”.

Muherutse kwibonera ukuntu Ndahiro yagiye ku rubuga rwe akiyandagaza agasebya padiri Tomasi Nahimana ko yacikishijwe na Musenyeri we akoresheje impapuro z’inzira za Congo ariko uyu mupadiri agakubitira ikinyoma ahabona yerekana ko yagendeye ku mpapuro z’u Rwanda n’ubu agihabwa narwo. Mu kiganiro uyu mupadri aheruste kugirana na radio ijwi ry’Itahuka, yatangaje ko Agatsiko ntako katagize gatera ubwoba umuryango we; njye rero sinabyumvaga ukuntu igikorwa cyose Padiri yakora cyabazwa umuryango we nk’aho akiri umwana w’igitambabuga!! Nasobanukiwe ejobundi aho umugore wanjye ampamagaye akambwira ko Agatsiko kamuhamagaye aho yagahungiye, kakamubwira aya magambo akurikira: “ Ese uriya mugabo wawe yibwira ko hariya ari tutahagera?” Madamu yakoze ikosa afunga telefoni atabwiwe akari i Murore. Njye rero byanteye kwibaza cyane nsanga kariya gatsiko kagomba kuba karagize ibibazo cyane kabonye ko Revolisiyo y’ Ikaramu ikugarije! Kubona rero katarashatse uko kangezaho twa tuzi ako kanya cyangwa ngo kohereze abantu bo kunkorera nka ba Rwisereka, nabyo birerekana ko ikigega gishinzwe kwica kigomba kuba gisigayemo ubusa kuva aho abaterankunga bahagarikiye inkunga zabo!

Rwanda-US: "U.S. trips in Rwanda prosecution Who to believe, when the African government uses genocide memories as political tool?

"U.S. trips in Rwanda prosecution

Who to believe, when the African government uses genocide memories as political tool?


During her rape by a militiaman, the nun screamed and spit at the face of the woman they called "Commander Beatrice," the witness recounted from the stand. "If you don't want to be like other women, let me take you somewhere else," the militiawoman responded. She took the nun to an open pit and shot her with a pistol.

The alleged rape and murder took place in Butare, Rwanda, during that country's 1994 genocide. The testimony was by Jean-Damascene "Saddam" Munyanyeza, a slight Rwandan wearing leg shackles and a blue work jacket that looked three sizes too large. He spoke not before an international tribunal, but through a translator to a federal jury in New Hampshire. The defendant, Beatrice Munyenyezi, 41, was on trial not for murder or genocide, but for immigration fraud.

Her trial was part of a multimillion-dollar effort by the U.S. Department of Justice and Immigration and Customs Enforcement to prosecute and deport U.S. residents suspected of involvement in Rwanda's 100-day slaughter, 18 years after it ended.

Only the government didn't succeed. The jury deadlocked, and U.S. District Judge Steven McAuliffe declared a mistrial on March 15. It was the second failed prosecution of someone accused of genocide during the past year.

Although international legal experts and human rights groups have praised the attempts to ensure justice for genocide victims, many question whether witnesses like "Saddam," provided by Rwanda's authoritarian, ethnic Tutsi-dominated government, are reliable. And almost no one claims that once deported to Rwanda, defendants will face a fair trial.

"The Rwandan government is making it impossible to tell false accusations from real ones, because they use genocide allegations as a political tool to silence dissent," said Brian Endless, a political scientist at Loyola University Chicago who studies Rwanda and advised Munyenyezi's defense.

Rwanda's government drew a different conclusion. "Some of these Western jurisdictions can't just understand the gravity of cases before them," Martin Ngoga, the country's prosecutor general, told Rwanda's The New Times following the mistrial. "They handle these cases in a very simplistic way. We have, in the past, applauded trials abroad because we thought they would substitute extradition. But this isn't happening; some countries have abused this process."

Defense attorneys David Ruoff and Mark Howard argued much the same point, but from the opposite perspective. "The approach that the federal government has taken is to apply Western norms and carve out witnesses from the heart of Africa and think the same norms will apply," Ruoff said. "That just doesn't apply here, and the government hasn't addressed that."

Carmen Ortiz, the Massachusetts U.S. attorney whose office prosecuted the case, in a formal statement called the outcome "unfortunate" and said the Justice Department was reviewing its options. The department noted its successful immigration prosecutions in the past of suspected former Nazis and people linked to massacres in Guatemala and Bosnia.

"The Justice Department is committed to ensuring that human rights violators from any region of the world are not granted safe haven in the United States," the department said. "As in every type of case, we conduct thorough investigations and bring charges we believe are supported by evidence sufficient to obtain and sustain a conviction."

COMING TO AMERICA

Rwanda's genocide was preceded by four years of civil war between a Hutu-dominated government and Tutsi guerrillas. The spark was the shooting down of an airplane carrying President Juvénal Habyarimana, a Hutu, on April 6, 1994 — possibly by radical Hutus who feared he would make peace with the rebels. For 100 days, Hutu extremists in Rwanda's interim government directed soldiers and members of the Interahamwe militia to slaughter an estimated 800,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus out of a population of about 7 million people. The killings ended with the Tutsi rebels seizing power. Hundreds of thousands of Hutus fled to neighboring countries; several thousands of those who remained fell victim to reprisal killings.

Munyenyezi and her three children moved to the United States in 1998. Since the genocide, she had shuttled among refugee settlements in east Africa, but once in this country found an apartment, a car and a job with the Manchester Housing and Redevelopment Authority, where she became an advocate for refugees, according to Manchester's New Hampshire Union Leader. In 2003, she became a U.S. citizen in the same federal courthouse where she later would stand trial. By that time, she'd bought a home and was working on a memoir, Life In the Middle of Nowhere.

In 2005, she gave an interview about fleeing Rwanda. "I escaped, I locked up my house," she told New Hampshire Public Radio. "At some point, I thought I would go back in a few weeks, and I never knew that it was for good. And you know, I left everything, especially my wedding dress that I wish that I could have."

Munyenyezi's July 1993 marriage into a politically connected Hutu family has proven problematic. Her husband, Arsène Shalom Ntahobali, became a feared Hutu militia leader during the slaughter. Her mother-in-law, Pauline Nyiramasuhuko, was the minister of women's affairs in the government that oversaw the killings. Both were convicted for their roles in the genocide by the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda and sentenced to life in prison.

In 2006 Munyenyezi, traveled to Tan­zania to testify during her husband's trial; she told the court that Shalom hadn't participated in any crimes. At about that time, her life in the United States had begun to unravel; she lost her job to city budget cuts, according to the Union Leader. By 2008, she was working as a nurse's aide, making less than $1,000 a month. She declared bankruptcy and lost her home. That same year, her sister, who had also testified in Tanzania, was indicted on 10 counts of perjury and immigration fraud for allegedly lying under oath during her immigration proceedings about her membership in Habyarimana's political party (which before the peace talks sanctioned persecution of Tutsis).

According to Ruoff, immigration agents opened an investigation into Munyenyezi after someone sent investigators a transcript of her tribunal testimony.

Prosecutors Jon Capin and Aloke Chakravarty of the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Massachusetts attempted to prove at trial that Munyenyezi played a role in the genocide. Ruoff and Howard argued in turn that the government's case was built on unreliable witnesses, some of whom had admitted to mass murder themselves — "Saddam," for example, testified that he couldn't recall how many children he'd killed. They argued that Munyenyezi, who was pregnant with twins at the time, sheltered with other female family members from the carnage around her. Her relatives backed up that argument at trial, although eight Rwandan prosecution witnesses insisted that she was deeply engaged in the slaughter.

"It's the face I saw during the genocide, and it's a face I will never forget," testified Aleysia Mukankuriza, who described surviving by walking to Burundi despite a head wound. "A person who has done wrong to you, you will never forget."

"Saddam" accused Munyenyezi not only of killing of the nun, but also of procuring Tutsi girls to be raped, instructing him and other militiamen to construct a roadblock and making a radio speech warning Hutus not to shelter Tutsis.

By some estimates, as many as 80 percent of the Tutsis living in Rwanda were murdered in three months. Killing at that scale requires the participation of a wide swathe of the population. "I think anyone in Rwanda at that time has some stain on them," said Susan Thomson, a Hampshire College professor who has spent much of her career researching the genocide, and who was listed as an expert witness for Munyenyezi's defense but did not testify.

INVOLVEMENT NEVER MENTIONED

Munyenyezi's lawyers noted that in hundreds of pages of testimony before the international tribunal and in reports by Human Rights Watch and other groups, Munyenyezi's involvement is never mentioned, including by witnesses who would later testify at her trial. Moreover, a growing body of evidence suggested that the Rwanda's government is using genocide allegations to silence exiled political opponents and discourage defense witnesses from coming forward — as Munyenyezi did for her husband.

During the past 18 years, President Paul Kagame's Rwandan Patriotic Front government has been widely credited with rebuilding a country in ruins and restoring some form of normalcy. Since 2001, it has tried more than 1.2 million genocide-related cases before community courts known as gacaca. But it's also a country where questioning the official version of the genocide has been criminalized, opposition party leaders are jailed and attacked, and Kagame won the last two elections with more than 90 percent of the vote against no real opposition. The government has blocked the international prosecution of its own members for revenge killings.

During last year's trial of Lazare Kobagaya, an 84-year-old asylum-seeker in Kansas accused of charges similar to those against Munyenyezi, the jury deadlocked on one immigration fraud charge and convicted on a lesser charge. That conviction was dismissed after prosecutors acknowledged failing to share exculpatory evidence with the defense. Jurors in that case, which involved more than 80 witnesses and $1 million in costs, told The Associated Press that they unanimously rejected the genocide allegations, which were largely based on the testimony of Rwandans — even though most of them believed that Kobagaya had lied on his immigration paperwork.

Kobagaya had been reported by the Rwandan government to U.S. authorities after he testified via video for a Rwandan genocide defendant on trial in Finland, said Kurt Kerns, a Kansas lawyer who defended him. "We learned if you become a defense witness, you do so at your own risk," he said. "Nothing comes out of Rwanda without the Rwandan government's say-so. If the Rwandan government has a particular interest in prosecuting someone, they'll find the witnesses to say so."

Similarly, Leopold Munyakazi, a Rwandan exile and professor at Goucher College in Maryland, found himself accused of genocide by the Rwandan government and under investigation for immigration violations soon after claiming in a 2006 speech that the events in 1994 were not genocide but "fratricide."

Claims that the Rwandan government is using genocide accusations to silence defense witnesses or political opponents has been a common defense before the international tribunal and within Rwanda itself. A 2011 Human Rights Watch report on the community genocide courts found that "some defense witnesses were afraid to testify for fear of being accused of genocide themselves, and there were numerous allegations that gacaca courts sacrificed the truth to satisfy political interests."

Said Carina Tertsakian, a senior Rwanda researcher at Human Rights Watch: "It's a government that controls people very well and that has a strategy and knows quite well how to get what it wants. If it decides that it really wants this particular woman to be found guilty or sent back to Rwanda, it can quite easily find ways of rustling up witnesses and sending them over."

Balancing such doubts with the need to bring to justice to perpetrators is not likely to get easier. "Did she or didn't she? That's the million-dollar question," said Thomson, the Hampshire College researcher. "I wouldn't be surprised if she did. And I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't. But there's no way to know.""

RWANDA:Govt Battling Unemployment.Kagame country and Youth Unemployment

From ALLAFRICA.COM
On the morning of Jan. 4 in Kigali, the compound of the newly opened national library of Rwanda was unusually crowded.
Along queue of smartly dressed youth clutching brown envelopes was quite a vista to passersby and many wondered what kind of books the library could have to attract such a morning rush.
But these young people were not at the library to read. They were graduates who had turned up to find jobs.
It was the "Rwanda Job Day" and these youths had travelled from all over Rwanda's 30 districts to be here and they all had hope of at least finding any job that would keep them busy, according to Sonia Giramata, an accounting graduate, who had travelled from Gisenyi town in western Rwanda.
The Rwanda Job day, organised by 'Jobs in Rwanda', a website that recruits online was meant to bring employers face to face with job seekers and those with the right competences or proper luck, would find their dream job, and 'meet their future' as the day's theme stated.
It's now a standard that if someone is actively looking for work but is unable to find any, then they are unemployed.
That's the definition upon which authorities in Rwanda base on to say the country's unemployment rate is at 1%, a dream statistic for most economies.
Unfortunately, in Africa where data collection let alone management is still wanting, it's difficult to determine for sure how many Rwandans are 'actively' job hunting to compile an accurate figure of those unemployed. Before the event, job seekers had registered before coming and the organisers had to stop registering when the number became overwhelming at around 1200. These ranged from young graduates who had graduated a year ago to those who have been on the streets for more than two years or even those who were not satisfied with their current jobs and wanted better.
Looking at the crowd that day, it was clear; the country's unemployment rate could more than the 1% quoted.
Jean Philbert Nsengimana, Rwanda's Minister of Youth and ICT is an honest man, a rare trait among politicians.

DRC-RWANDA:Inside Story: How Congo Rebels Were Trapped In South Africa

The rebels reportedly planned to topple President Joseph Kabila (pictured)

By Brian Kwesiga from CHIMPREPORT

At least 19 suspected M23 rebels arrested in South Africa early this week have been charged before the Pretoria Regional Court for plotting to overthrow the government of DRC President Joseph Kabila.

The suspects were charged under section 2 and 3 of the Regulation of Foreign Military Assistance Act 15 of 1998 that forbids plotting coups or mercenary activities in foreign nations.

On 5 February 2013, the Special Task Force Unit of the South African Police Service arrested 19 alleged members of the DRC rebel movement in a remote area in Limpopo.

Prosecutor Shaun Abrahams told court on Thursday the objective of the group was to receive specialised military related training and arms such as guns and air-to-surface missiles from SA mercenaries to overthrow the current DRC Government.

However, it appears, the rebels had unknowingly contacted undercover police who recorded all their movements and contacts until they were arrested on Tuesday.

The undercover agents reportedly took photographs as the rebels received some of the guns handed to them as bait and recorded on video their meetings held in South Africa.

According to prosecution, the combatants promised their contacts mining rights in Eastern DRC after waging a successful war in the eastern part of the country.

M23 have vehemently denied links to the arrested fighters.

The Movement’s publicist Amani Kabasha on Wednesday told Chimpreports they have no intention to overthrow the government of Kinshasa but admitted “M23 has within it, of course, many known and unknown supporters around the world who subscribe to the values ​​we stand for.”

He added: “We are still amazed that a country defending democratic values ​​imprisons people for the sole reason of belonging to a movement that simply assert its rights and moreover is negotiating with its partner in conflict.”

Kabasha maintained the M23 revolution is designed along the lines of South Africa resistance against apartheid “and our movement is inspired to fight against the discrimination that plagues the Congo.”

According to prosecution, the suspects planned to orchestrate a coup in DRC or launch a conventional war. The suspects did not take plea.

They will be held in custody till February 14 when their bail application can be heard.

Eastern Congo is home to over 40 militia groups, with some challenging Kabila’s authority.
