Long before it turned genocide denier, the BBC produced a documentary that exposed three truths: One: The genocide against the Tutsi was planned. Two: The plan was known to the US State Department months before hell was unleashed on Rwanda’s Tutsi. Three: The attack on the plane was nothing... but a pretext to unleash genocidal violence. "Rwanda, That Local Thing" is just one episode among eight in a series called Corridors of Power: Should the US Police the World? Here is what British investigative journalist Linda Melvern writes in her recent article, "A preventable genocide, a denied responsibility: What 'Corridors of Power' reveals about Rwanda": "Anyone who had bothered to examine the cables from Kigali, carefully filed in the State Department’s Africa Bureau, would have found the outline of a planned, political campaign to exterminate the Tutsi." Read more: Let that sink in. They knew. The documentary goes further, revealing that the extermination plan was personally disclosed to General Roméo Dallaire, commander of UNAMIR, back in January 1994… by a regime insider. Here was the plan, in cold blood: -Kill Belgian peacekeepers to drive the UN mission out. - Then kill all Tutsi. Lists of Tutsi were drawn up. Weapons stockpiled. Tens of thousands of Interahamwe militias trained and mobilized. The media, the RTLM, would do the rest, whipping the masses into a killing frenzy. Three months before the genocide, three months before the plane was struck, the plan was already laid out, ready to be executed. The attack on the plane, launched from the Kanombe military barracks, controlled by the genocidal army, was never the cause. It was the excuse.The signal to begin the slaughter. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a genocide denier. Plain and simple. Cc: African 𝑹𝒖𝒌𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒛𝒂 𝑨𝒍𝒊 Albert Rudatsimburwa 🇷🇼 #LandIsNotProperty Mwalimu Wandia Robert Cyubahiro McKenna Sir.
