[amakurunamateka.com] FW: [fondationbanyarwanda] Fwd: *DHR* gusubiza inyandiko ya Serubuga

 

Banyarwanda bavandimwe, twese abiciwe kuva muli 1957 kugeza magingo aya mucyo twifatanye mu kaga dusenge Rurema ahe abacu iruhuko ridashira kandi abiyereke iteka. 
 
Aliko mucyo tubikorane umucyo, twemera n'intege zacu nke zidukurulira alizo: ubwoba, guhakwa, no gushakira indonke mu byontazi duteye ukuli umugongo. Abacu balishwe, aliko tujye tugira ubutwali bwo kwemera ko natwe tubigiramo uruhare, duhisha ibibazo igihe byakagombye gukemulirwa kubera amanyanganya n'inyungu z'akanya gato. Abahamililije Habyarimana bamurata ibigwi aho kumubaza ibisobanuro by'abishwe bategekaga mu ngoma ya Kayibanda babonetse hose, mu Nduga no mu Rukiga. Guhamya ko Habyarimana nta banyenduga yategekanaga nabo batatinyutse kumubaza kiliya kibazo cy'ubwicanyi byaba ali ubuliganya bubi. Ahubwo ikibazo cyacu nuko abo dutumye gusaba, basanga usabwa ali mwiza, bakisabira, bibagirwa burundu ababatumye. Ni mucyo twicuze twese mbere na mbere kutavugisha ukuli ahubwo tukishora mu manyanganya byatumye igihugu cyacu gisenyuka, kivukamo inzangano kiga-nduga zitwicira byinshi. Guichaoua (2004) yabyerekanye neza mu nyandiko ye ya Butare. 
 
Ikindi nuko ubu busembwa alibwo bulimbura ingoma zose za Rwanda.
Murebe Ubwami: igihe bwagombaga guhindulira ingendo ngo buhe inzira nshya Urwanda, ababuliragaho barasizoye bavuga ko butagomba guhinduka, bitera ko buseswa buhitanye bamwe muli benewacu batagiraga aho buhuliye nabwo.
Ingoma ya Kayibanda: nayo igihe yagombaga guhindura ingendo ngo Rwanda ifate inzira nshya, abayiliragaho barasizoye bavuga ko itagomba guha abandi ubutegetsi, biba ngombwa ko iseswa ihitanye bamwe muli benewacu batagiraga aho bahuliye nayo.
Ingoma ya Habyarimana: yo yashatse gukora ku bulyo itazapfa ihinduye ingendo ngo Rwanda ifate inzira nshya (loi fondamentale yali imufunguliye kugira ngo itazamugonga nka Kayibanda), abayiliragaho babona ko ibyo guha abandi inkuyo yo gukomeza gucunga igihugu bidashoboka, biba ngombwa ko iseswa ihitanye benewacu batagiraga aho bahuliye nayo.
Dore ingoma ya Kagame: nayo yagombaga guhindura ingendo ngo Rwanda ifate inzira nshya, abayiliraho barasizoye bavuga ko bitatuma igihugu gikomeza kubaho. Barasaba kwica loi fondementale biyandikiye ngo bayigire nk'imwe ya Habyarimana. Abaturage aho kugira ngo babyamagane ahubwo barajyana ibiseke muli parlement, babiherekesheje akadiho ngo barashaka prezida umwe uhoraho, nkaho nyuma y'imyaka 21 gusa bibagiwe amahasa twagiyemo RPF ivuga ko ali kubera Habyarimana wali warambye cyane ku ngoma. Iyo atihisha mu Rugwiro ubutavamo ngo niwe kamara, aba yaragize igihe cyo gusubiza ibi bibazo by'abategekaga ku ngoma ya Kayibanda bishwe, Nduga na Kiga ntibishwane ngo abandi bisarulire.  
 
Ibyago by'abategetse ku gihe cya Kayibanda ni ikimenyetso kimwe cy'ubusembwa abanyarwanda twivurugutamo bukadusenyera. 
Twabonye inshoreka zo muli sud zikoreshwa na Lizinde mu kumata (mater) abashakaga kuzamura icyo kibazo; tubona Lizinde agaya Z wali umushoreye ajyanwe muli cour d'appel mu Ruhengeri: abanyarwanda bandi twakoze iki ngo ibi bintu biculitse bicambuke, uretse ahubwo guceceka, tugahamiliza ngo babe batwihera utwanya?
Ubu tubona ibidasura akazoza keza i Rwanda biculilirwa. Hagira abatinyuka kuvuga bati sibyo, bagahigirwa hasi no hejuru.
Niba rero dushaka Urwanda rutarenganya, ntabwo tuzarutorera mu guterekera abazimu b'abacu barenganijwe cyangwa se mu guhemukira abasaza aba n'aba bagize ubugabo bwo kuduhanura, batwereka amakosa yakozwe atakagombye kwongera gusubirwamo. Ibi ni nabyo bwana Rutayisire asaba ati abakuze bakiliho babonye ibyo kwa Kayibanda, ibyo kwa Habyarimana nibaseruke badufashe kubaka Urwanda rwiza. 
 
Umuti nyawo wo kubaka Urwanda rutunganye uzava mu butwali bwo gusobanura no kwanga ibicuramye, tukaba inyangamugayo nyazo zamagana ikibi, zitaliganya ngo zironke utunyungu utu n'utu cyangwa se zikingirwe ikibaba ku byaha bizibarwaho. Ibyo kwitwaza ngo abatware batwica ntabwo alibyo, ni ubugwali kuko ntawe ufunga igihugu cyose aliko iyo cyishyize mu mwobo kiramya/gishyigikira amafuti bigihezamo.

[amakurunamateka.com] Rwanda: How a Film Could Get You 25 Years in Jail!

 


Twenty years ago this April close to one million Rwandans were slaughtered by machetes, hand grenades and bullets in the swiftest and, perhaps, most savage genocide in modern history. Ten years ago, I co-wrote, directed, and produced the film Hotel Rwanda in an attempt to capture the horror, the world's avoidance of the slaughter, and, most of all, the heroism of a handful of Rwandans at the Milles Collines hotel in Kigali. The film was a critical success, and more importantly managed to inform and educate ordinary Americans about the genocide.

The film was initially well-received in Rwanda. In May 2005, I screened the film for Rwandan President Paul Kagame. I sat beside him as he and his wife, and most of Rwanda's parliament watched the movie. Afterward he leaned over to me and said the film had done much good around the world in exposing the horrors of the genocide. The next day I sat with him and discussed how the film might be used to stimulate investment and support for his country, and that evening I screened the film at Amahoro Stadium for some 10,000 people. It was the most emotional screening I have ever experienced. I spent close to an hour afterward accepting thanks and congratulations.

Two months later, all that changed. The film's real-life hero, Paul Rusesabagina, and the film itself, became the focus of a smear campaign by the Rwandan press and by politicians, including President Kagame. The reason was obvious. In his book, An Ordinary Man, Paul had begun to criticize Kagame's government, saying that the presidential election, in which Kagame received 90.5 percent of the vote, was not democratic and that President Kagame suppresses human rights in Rwanda. That criticism has since been echoed by Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, Reporters Without Borders, and numerous International politicians, newspapers and reporters. In recent years, the criticism has grown, with reports of kidnappings and assassinations of political opponents across Africa, military intervention by the Rwandan Army in Congo, and suppression of all opposition inside Rwanda.

While he stifles all opposition, there is no question that Paul Kagame has transformed Rwanda from an impoverished sectarian state into a model of economic growth and modernization. This success has sparked much debate -- the highly successful African strongman who rules with an iron fist versus the liberal desire for Western democratic standards. Kagame has used his impressive achievements, (and the continuing guilt of the West) to mount a sophisticated International PR campaign to counter the accusations that he is a ruthless dictator. 

Now Hotel Rwanda has once more become a target of this PR campaign. A recently released book, Inside the Hotel Rwanda: The Surprising True Story ... And Why it Matters Today, by Edouard Kayihura, a former Kagame official, claims to debunk the 'lies' in our film. What's surprising is that this book has suddenly appeared 10 years after the movie's release. It is, in fact, a rehash of the book Hotel Rwanda: Or the Tutsi Genocide as seen by Hollywood, published in Rwanda back when the vilification of Rusesabagina was at its height. That book was also authored by Kagame officials. I guess the latest book has been timed to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the genocide and renewed interest in the film.

I've spent a good part of my life in theater, film and television, and have learned to live with criticism, but accusations of 'lies' are a different matter, particularly about a film that I believe has shaped the understanding of millions of people about the Rwandan genocide. So let's set the facts straight.

We researched the Hotel Rwanda story thoroughly. I interviewed (and videotaped) scores of Milles Collines survivors, including current government officials. We screened the film to hotel survivors, Rwandan and foreign; to UN officials; to both the US and Rwandan Presidents. No one voiced a word of criticism.

Now, a decade on, this book (Inside the Hotel Rwanda: The Surprising True Story ... and Why It Matters Today by Edouard Kayihura, Kerry Zukus has appeared and been noted in Newsweek and lauded in a Huffington Post blog. And with the power of Google, these attacks will fester on the search page like a Sharpie mustache scribbled on a portrait. What's funny, if it wasn't sad, is that many of the 'accusations' against Paul in the book are documented in the film. He did indeed charge some people for their rooms. He did drink with genocide perpetrators and barter with them for food. He tried to help his wife escape. Who wouldn't?

Frankly the book, its publication, and this 'veracity' debate is pathetic when considered in the context of the Rwandan catastrophe. I'd be happy to ignore it if it weren't for the accusation of 'Genocide Revisionism' in the book. Genocide Revisionism is all encompassing crime in Kagame's Rwanda. Human Rights Watch has this to say about the law:

As many Rwandans have discovered, disagreeing with the government or making unpopular statements can easily be portrayed as genocide ideology, punishable by sentences of 10 to 25 years. That leaves little political space for dissent. 

I don't think I'll be back in Rwanda in the near future to sit and chat once more with President Kagame. I'll just let Hotel Rwanda, named as one of 100 most inspirational Films of All Time by the American Film Institute, speak for itself.

[amakurunamateka.com] AFJN to US Government: Take African Presidential Term Limits Seriously | Africa Faith and Justice Network

 


In his speach at the African Union on July 28, 2015, President Obama addressed a specific African democracy crisis: the issue of presidential term limits. "I have to also say that Africa's democratic progress is also at risk when leaders refuse to step aside when their terms end … I don't understand why people want to stay so long… When a leader tries to change the rules in the middle of the game just to stay in office, it risks instability and strife." In 2009 during his first visit to Ghana in West Africa President Obama addressed the same topic: "History is on the side of these brave Africans, not with those who use coups or change constitutions to stay in power. Africa doesn't need strongmen, it needs strong institutions."

Two days after President Obama denounced lifetime presidency on the African continent during a speech at the African Union, Africa Faith & Justice (AFJN) and partner organizations submitted a proposal to US lawmakers to ensure the US government does not continue to support the very dictators it criticizes.

In the letter sent to members of both the Senate and the House of Representatives who are on the Subcommittee on Appropriation and/or Foreign Affairs AFJN said: "Similar to the "Military Coup" clause found for example in the "Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2008, (Public Law 110–161 Section 608),  and the "Leahy Amendments" (Section 620M of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961) which are always attached to defense appropriation bills, we recommend that the US congress propose a "Presidential Term Limit" clause to further support the US's commitment to advancing people-powered democracy in countries where the people are held back by lifetime leaders. Under this clause, if a president whose government is receiving US aid violates, changes, or is in the process of changing the country's presidential term limit law or constitution in order to stay in power they would lose critical non-emergency development aid funds."

Like many Africa advocacy organizations, AFJN believes that the lack of peaceful and democratic transfers of power is a top threat to economic growth and political and social stability in many African countries. We make the case that "US foreign policy should not ignore the fact that African peoples are more determined than ever to stop lifelong presidencies. Senegal, Burkina Faso, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and now Burundi are evidence of a popular wave of support for upholding presidential term limits."

Furthermore we explain that "On May 20th, in Accra, Ghana, the heads of state of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) discussed a proposal to ban presidential third terms within the region. Although it was tabled and sent back for further consultation, discussing it in the first place is a step in the right direction."

On June 30th on the occasion of 3rd African & African- American Diaspora Working Group meeting held at the Department of Sate and chaired by Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs Linda Thomas Greenfield, AFJN's Policy Analyst Jacques Bahati handed her our coalition letter and made a presentation about the need for better US policies in relation to presidential term limits in Africa.
Here is a selection of our recommendations:

1.For any African government receiving US aid, rigorous stipulations should be added. A leader who violates or attempts to change their people's constitution in order to stay in power beyond the specified terms should lose direct and critical government aid funds.
2.Reexamine bilateral cooperation (military, economic, political, and diplomatic) with all African nations whose presidents have attempted or successfully changed the constitution to remain in power.
3. Encourage and support those advocating for the reinstatement of presidential term limits in nations where there is no such provision or such provision was removed.
4. Call on the US Department of State to engage and encourage individual nations within the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) to ratify the presidential term ban.

Dear All,

2. Umutwe w'Imbonerakure (bivugwa ko washinzwe n'uyu Gen Adolphe), URASA n'umutwe w'impuzamugambi n'interahamwe bya CDR na MRND. Amahano iyi mitwe yaje gukora muri 1994 murayibuka

3. Abitwa "AbaDeDe" bo mu ishyaka rya CNDD-FDD igice cya Nkurunziza na Adolphe, BARASA n'Aba "POWER" bo ku bwa Karamira, Murego na Mugenzi. Uruhare rw'aba bagabo muri 1994 murarwibuka.

4. Irya Coup d'Etat yiswe iyo guhirika Pita yo muri Mai 2015, IRASA n'ikinamico ryabaye mu mujyi wa Kigali muri rya joro ryo ku wa 04-05/10/1990 ryiswe igitero cy'Inkotanyi mu mujyi wa Kigali. Ibyakurikiyeho murabizi.

Duhereye kuri izo ngero nkeya, umuntu yagira ubwoba bw'uko ibizakurikiraho mu Burundi guhera ubu, nabyo bizasa n'ibyabaye mu Rwanda muri 1994.
Hatagize igikorwa hakiri kare, Dore ibishobora gukurikiraho:

-“The root cause of the Rwandan tragedy of 1994 is the long and past historical ethnic dominance of one minority ethnic group to the other majority ethnic group. Ignoring this reality is giving a black cheque for the Rwandan people’s future and deepening resentment, hostility and hatred between the two groups.”
