..Just reminding you Mr. Matek about what you initially posted on the topic
"Museveni/Kagame Killed Habyalima/Cyprien Ntaryamira"...i still contend that
a french judge is part and parcel of the french government just as a french
minister or president is. Afterall the french judge is acting as a judge
representing the french government (which appointed him).



E Musaazi:

Let me state in no uncertain terms that the judiciary in most Western European States ( U.S.A,  Britain, France, Belgium e.t.c)    tend to have pretty much a high degree of independence from their respective governments.

Unlike in Uganda, were Museveni  can have a great influence on the judges of the  high court  on issues  (  Museveni is known to offer "packages"  and Pageros to Judges  so that the judges may rule "wisely" ) there is no such thing in France or U.S.A, U.K,  Belgium e.t.c

When a French Judge conducts an investigation (as in the case of the Genocide in Rwanda..and the circumstances which lead to that Genocide)  you can rest assured that the findings of the French Judge is  pretty much Independent from and has not been  influence by  the French Government.

"The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the state."
