One of the UK’s major news organisations, ITV News has taken to the footsteps of its main competitor, the BBC, in the perennial intoxication campaign to whitewash the perpetrators of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.

The first signs that there was a conspiracy to water down the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi and that it had shifted into top gear came about in 2004–on the eve of the 10th anniversary of the Genocide.

The BBC gained entry into the high security prison where some senior masterminds of the Genocide are serving their sentences and gave them a platform to cleanse themselves and demonise the present Rwandan government.

In the ITV interview with Jean Kambanda, who was the Prime Minister of a government that oversaw the Genocide, he paints himself as an innocent victim of international conspiracy.

Video footage of the Genocidaire clad in military fatigues distributing arms to Interahamwe militia at the height of the Genocide abound. That alone was enough for any judge to lock him up and throw away the key.

Just like previous provocations by Genocide revisionists have in the past been timed to coincide with a Rwandan national event for maximum publicity, ITV was not left far behind.

It aired the programme around the same time the country was celebrating the 21st anniversary of the swearing in of the post Genocide government – the one that replaced Kambanda’s – and the ongoing judicial masquerade that Gen Karenzi Karake is suffering in the UK.

But ITV and BBC should meditate on this; no matter how many "versions” of the Genocide Kambanda and his clique manufacture, survivors will be there to tell their story, and trying to distort facts about the Genocide will always be a futile attempt.
