Kenya Government is currently conducting a "military invasion" of her neighbour Somalia because of precisely the same historical and demographic pattern manifested in Eastern Congo.........our Defence/Internal Affairs Minister is "direct cousin" of the wanna-be President of the new Jubaland Republic (curremtly being curved from Somalia with the help of Kenyan Armed Forces).
The super powers are conviniently "blind and deaf" because this Kenya/Somali drama (though more violent and highly criminal) fits their business portfolio .......unlike poor Kagame who has nothing worth "scrambling" underneath his Rwanda.
THERE IS A BEGINNING AND AN END TO ALL SPHERE OF LIFE. POLITICS IS NOT SPARED BY THIS REALITY OF NATURE.
PAUL KAGAME IS A DICTATOR, LIKE ALL DICTATORSHIP IT ENDS IN TEARS. MOBUTU WAS THE RICHEST MAN ON THE PLANET. HE HAD THE MILITARY MIGHT SUPPORTED BY THE SAME USA.
IT DID LITTLE TO SAVE HIM WHEN THEY TOLD HIM IT WAS TIME TO GO.
PAUL KAGAME IS LUCKY TO KNOW THAT TIME IS RUNNING OUT. HE SHOULD WORK OUT AN EXIT PLAN BEFORE HE IS OVERTAKEN BY EVENTS. MOBUTU FAILED TO NOTICE THAT IT WAS TIME TO DEPART.
LIKE ALL DICTATORS THEY BELIEVE IN THEIR OWN INVINCIBILITY, AFTER ALL THEY SAY WE HAVE SURVIVED WORSE. THE FACT IS, WITHDRAWING FUNDS LIKE THEY DID SHOULD BE A CLEAR WARNING SIGN. KAGAME IS A DICTATOR, MUSEVENI KABILA DOS SANTOS ARE ALL DICTATORS. THE WORLD AROUND THEM IS CHANGING FAST.
THEY NEED TO GO NOW.
PEOPLE LIKE OKELO HAVE BEEN LYING TO THE USA FOR A LONG TIME. THERE IS NOTHING IN RWANDA OF VALUE.
IF THERE IS ANY COUNTRY WITH GENUINE SECURITY CONCERNS IN THAT REGION IT IS DR CONGO.
THE USA IS A DECLINING POWER. THEIR INEPTITUDE TO SAY STOP TO PAUL KAGAME WILL ONLY CONVINCE CONGOLESE THAT PERHAPS IT IS TIME FOR THE USA TO PULL OUT OF DR CONGO AND LET CHINA CONTROL THE REGION.
YOU WILL NEVER ESTABLISH A TUTSILAND IN DR CONGO. YOUR TUTSIS HUTUS MAMBO JAMBO IS NONE OF OUR BUSINESS. EFFECTIVE OR NON EFFECTIVE GOVERNMENT IS NOT YOUR PROBLEM. I DON'T THINK ANYONE COMING FROM A NATION THAT BEGS FOR 50% OF ITS NATIONAL BUDGET CAN TALK ON THIS FORUM.
