HRW and Co., wake up, let the truth set you free

From what has been happening in the last few days, it is clear that the age-old disease of superiority complexes fails to fade. This was evidenced by some self-appointed “guardians” of Rwanda’s destiny, who, as usual, came out of the woodwork when Rwanda was the subject of international attention. A coalition of known Genocide deniers, and a brick-back of so-called “Rwandan experts” (some just graduated from their diapers the other day, others nostalgic former mentors of the pre 1994 Genocidal regime). It is no secret that the name Rwanda conjures up 1994 images of death and desolation; and this is like Manna from Heaven for some fund-hungry NGOs. There is always someone out there who is ready to dip into their pockets to help these modern day Robin Hoods bring succour to the poor Africans who can’t fend for themselves.
