[Chris Black, since 2000, has been a lead counsel at the International Criminal Tribunal For Rwanda (ICTR). From that perspective he has seen that Rwanda was not a situation in which the United States and its allies failed to act. On the contrary, it was an example of direct interference by the United States and its allies.
Why?
Three reasons:
1) the US wished to replace the Hutu regime which did not want to cooperate with US aggression towards Mobutu in Zaire.
2) Secondly, the US wants to reduce French influence in central Africa.
3) The final US objective was and is control of the vast resources of the Congo.]
"..the Hutus have not only been faced with physical extinction at the hands of those who think of themselves as their moral and ontological betters, the neo-feudal Tutsis, and their North American, European and Israeli sponsors, but they have then been charged and prosecuted in some sort of media kangaroo court for committing the very heinous crimes committed against them. "
"Recently in Toronto, Bill Clinton denied any involvement in Rwanda, but this is one of the Big Lies of the Century. He and Bush are up to their necks in the blood of the Rwandan and Congolese people."
On a personal note, I clearly remember meeting an interesting person in the early 1990s who I shall name L.G, who described growing up in Burundi. A very beautiful place, hilly, green and lush but with a desperately poor, struggling and miserably treated population called the Hutus. I knew nothing about Burundi so L.G explained that this country has a long history of war between its two tribes, the Hutu who are poor, down-trodden, neglected and exploited by a very nasty, cruel, arrogant smaller tribe called the Tutsis. The Tutsis are wealthy, own everything and look down upon and shun Hutus and don’t share power or opportunities with them. There is a cycle of war which goes around every so often where the Hutus rebel and demand their human rights only to be beaten back down and punished severely by the Tutsis who regain control and carry on the wicked exploitation. I remember this conversation very clearly and can even remember where it took place, and when. How horribly grotesque and evil this sounded to me. I shuddered at the wickedness of this corrupt, faraway place.
Years later, after LG and I had gone our separate ways, when the uprising of the Hutus began in neighbouring Rwanda, I was genuinely astonished at the completely one-sided reporting of it by the MainStream Media here in the UK, and across the West! Consisting 100% of, “The poor Tutsis this, and the poor Tutsis that”!!!???
Huh!!!! And… “The wicked Hutus this, and the evil Hutus that!” What???
Then countless useful idiot British celebrities got on the band wagon, and fund-raising began – for the Tutsis!!?? A comparison very quickly developed (so quickly it almost seemed to have been planned) to call the war between these two tribes a holocaust, with the Tutsis being the unfortunate, Jew-like victims and the Hutus, naturally, being viewed as the stereotypical vile, insane Nazis! Not the freedom fighters of the Russian or French peoples’ revolutions – ’cos they’re black, so how could they be?
Hmmmm!
We weren’t taken in by any of this, and can remember being absolutely appalled at the skewed, one-sided news stories in the UK. This was the beginning of our total rejection of the MS British press and UTTER HATRED OF THE BBC “NEWS”, which is NOT NEWS but is actually just a load of old baloney, manipulative Zionist lies dressed up in propaganda to fool the average idiot Brit. And it works!

Forget Gaddafi. Blair's NEW best friend is a despot guilty of even bloodier slaughter
"The press is so powerful in its image-making role, it can make a criminal look like he's the victim and make the victim look like he's the criminal. This is the press, an irresponsible press. If you aren't careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." ~Malcolm X, Audubon Ballroom, December 13, 1964.
