RWANDA'S SILENT FRIENDS
Hi Sharangabo,
re: LUMUMBA-LIKE LAURENT NKUNDA and CONGO WRONG ON NKUNDA and
KABILA-CHINA-GORILLAS-NKUNDA
Have you noticed that Romeo Dallaire has made no comment or hasn't been
interviewed in ANY of the worldwide press regarding what is going on in the
Congo and its similarities to Rwanda? He hasn't spoken out against the Hutu
army and interahamwe FDLR who are given a free pass while the whole world
blames Nkunda.
Nor have any of the other so-called "friends" of Rwanda like Clinton, or Bono
or Gates etc, etc. None of them have criticised the genocidaires in the Congo,
and its repercussions for Rwanda.

Dear Jackie,
History has taught that at no time were the rebels good people to be
associated with during their struggles. The first rebel known in humankind
memory was JESUS CHRIST himself. I am not writing to you to speak about him.
Not at all. Let's get to what it is that is close to us.
I am responding to your letter as to why DALLAIRE, CLINTON and all those
people you named can't do or say at least publicly anything about what is
happening in the Congo.
First of all I will like to remind you that your good friend PAUL KAGAME used
to be called a BANDIT by the entire international community not only once but
twice. First when he joined the NRA with MUSEVENI to free UGANDA from a Tyrant
called OBOTE and then going with the RPF to free RWANDA and stop the genocide.
Kagame was all over there doing the thing, fighting for a cause, a right cause
but nevertheless all those people you named considered him a PARIAH until he
stopped the genocide and showed to the world that he was right. During the
entire struggle to free Rwanda KAGAME faced more FIREPOWER than LAURENT is
facing today. In that time KAGAME was facing the whole FRENCH MILITARY force,
Belgians, and at some point DALLAIRE was doing exactly what the UN force is
doing against LAURENT today in the CONGO.
Now today in the world KAGAME is being recognized for what he did. There are
highways which are being named after him in some country in Africa (while even
in Rwanda there is nothing like that).
When the cause is right the mightiness comes along with it.
LAURENT is right in his fight for justice for the Congolese people, not only
the Tutsis of Congo.
Time will tell. This is just the beginning of a great journey toward a new
Congo.
And when the dust has settled down in the Congo you will be her guest. This
is an invitation.
All the best to you Jackie JURA,
Sharangabo Rufagari
Greetings Sharangabo,
Thank you so much for answering my question as to why Dallaire and all the
others have been silent.
It reminds me of JFK's comment that "victory has a hundred fathers and defeat
is an orphan".
As you say, Kagame was alone until he was victorious, and then everyone was
his friend. The same will be true for Nkunda.
And I LOVE your comment that "when the cause is right the mightiness comes
along with it".
I believe that is true, and I believe there can be a new Congo - one that is
fair to all its people. And when the dust settles I'll take you up on your
invitation and go to the Congo again. And this time I won't just visit GOMA'S
LUMUMBA VOLCAN0 like I did last time. I'll venture into the hills where Nkunda
and his people live, in the place you say is like paradise on earth.
Amahoro,
Jackie Jura
