How much longer can Bill Clinton, Tony Blair, Benjamin Netanyahu, AIPAC ,
and associated Zionist organizations cover for Rwandan President Paul
Kagame? How much longer can they claim that he was Rwanda’s savior, that
he stopped a genocide recalling the Holocaust, then helped Rwanda rise
from the ashes?
This week another woman who dared to challenge him for the presidency
says he has taken vengeance on her and her family. In 2010, Kagame
imprisoned Victoire Ingabire, who is now serving the seventh of a
fifteen-year prison sentence, and now he has arrested Diane Rwigara, who
attempted to stand against him this year. Like Ingabire in 2010,
Rwigara was told that her name could not appear on the ballot because
her nomination papers were insufficient. Kagame’s election bureaucracy
is a Kafkaesque maze for anyone who might pose a real threat to his
reign of terror.
Rwandan police arrested Ingabire, then put her under house arrest,
shortly after her return to Rwanda in January 2010. They arrested and
imprisoned her shortly after Kagame claimed re-election with an
implausible 93% of the vote in August that year. They arrested Rwigara
shortly after Kagame claimed an even more implausible 99% on August 4th.
As of September 5, there were many conflicting reports and no
definitive account of the timeline of events before, during, and after
the arrest. Aljazeera was reporting that Rwigara had been arrested,
charged, and then returned to her home. Rwigara’s assistant said that
she had taken over her Twitter feed and that Rwigara is now under house
arrest, though not yet formally.
