HRW when will this end?
Only yesteryear, Human Rights Watch (HRW) and other international organizations, were championing the cause of Rwanda Patriotic Army (RPA) officials whose rights they claimed were under siege from what they claimed was a ‘highhanded’ Rwandan leadership. In well documented cases the good groups felt the RPA’s disciplinary measures against errant RPA officers – were just a little overboard. In a bizarre twist today we are told the same RPF leadership treats its errant officers with kid gloves. Now which is which? In this surprise turn of events for those who have had the fulfilling pleasure of following Rwanda’s struggle for liberation since before the Genocide against the Tutsi, the same groups now warn against ‘victor’s justice.’ One does not need to go far in seeing through HRW’s duplicitous political agenda than their own internal contradictions and double standards.
