Paul Kagame: America's Genocidaire in Central Africa
Glen Ford
August 17, 2010 Museveni and Kagame
Precisely like his predecessor, President Obama empowers a pro-western
Murder Inc. in Black Africa, a roster that includes the most vicious mass
murderers and assassins on the continent. One of them, Rwanda's Paul Kagame,
who is culpable in the death of millions in Congo, recently held an election
in which he got 93 percent of the vote. But you won't hear any complaints
from the White House.
"Paul Kagame and Woseri Museveni are the two main architects of the genocide
in the eastern Congo."
One of the United States' main allies in Black Africa recently declared
himself the winner of a farcical presidential election with

ction.html?pagewanted=print> 93 percent of the vote. But there will be no
outcry from Hillary Clinton's State Department or Barack Obama's White
House, or even much of a fuss from the New York Times, because President
Paul Kagame, of Rwanda, serves U.S. interests. You will never hear western
governments and media call Kagame by his true name: a dictator and warlord
from the minority Tutsi tribe that holds sway over the majority Hutu
population through a reign of terror. Instead, western capitalists shower
his regime with money and high praise as an example of how Africa should be
governed.
Paul Kagame and his mentor and fellow warlord in neighboring Uganda,
President Woseri Museveni, were given the green light by the West to kill
and steal at will in Central Africa. They are the two main architects of the
genocide in the eastern Congo, where some estimate six million people have
died since Rwanda and Uganda invaded the region, in the mid-Nineties. The
soldiers of these two U.S. henchmen are still there, in the Democratic
Republic of Congo, looting precious minerals for sale to multinational
corporations under cover of tribal warfare - wars created and nurtured by
Kagame and Museveni, themselves, for the sake of power and profit and the
favor of the United States and Europe. Kagame and Museveni have more blood
on their hands than any combination of men in Africa - which makes them
heroes to the West.
"Kagame and Museveni have more blood on their hands than any combination of
men in Africa."
Compared to the Congolese genocide, stealing an election in Rwanda is
child's play. The majority of the Hutu population lives in terror of the
Tutsi-dominated regime, which is rooted in the guerilla army that invaded
Rwanda from its bases in Uganda and set off the genocidal tribal violence
that killed hundreds of thousands of Tutsi and Hutus - although the Hutu
victims of Paul Kagame's army must be mourned in silence. It is a crime in
Rwanda to even raise the question of mass killings of Hutus during the
violence of 1994, as Kagame fought his way to power. Indeed, any criticism
of Kagame's regime is guaranteed to get one branded as a genocidaire - an
advocate of genocide - or a proponent of "divisionism," which means saying
anything that might tend to undermine the people's obedience to Paul Kagame.
You might just turn up dead, as did several of the regime's opponents in the
run-up to the sham election. No serious opposition was allowed to compete.
The Kagame police state has ways to ensure that almost everyone votes for
The Leader. Voters mark their ballots with their fingerprints next to the
chosen candidate, so no one's vote is a secret.
The two African heads of state most despised by the United States, Robert
Mugabe of Zimbabwe, and Omar al-Bashir of Sudan, have held elections that
were far more fair and credible than Rwanda's Paul Kagame. Presidents Mugabe
and Bashir would never arrange for themselves to get 93 percent of the vote,
because they would be denounced as vote thieves by the West. But the
genocidal dictator and Paul Kagame flaunts his disregard for the democratic
processes, and the West loves him for it. He is doing the U.S. and Europe's
killing for them, and they are pleased.
