RUSESABAGINA IMPOSTA RWANDA?

To Orwell Today,

Paul Rusesabagina may be the biggest impostor in modern history but I think also that he has some talents of a genius.

Paul Rusesabagina visited 75 universities and colleges in the USA during the period 2006-2007. He was a key speaker at 35 international institutions during the same period. We have learned that every speech he made commanded an honorary between $5,000 and $10,000 each plus airfare and accommodation. Invariably the theme of his SPEECH remains the same "THE GENOCIDE IN RWANDA". Everywhere he goes he is greeted as the SAVIOUR OF TUTSIS (what IRONY!!!). What is even more amazing is lately he has embarked on demonizing the Government of Rwanda at the same time.

He has set up a FOUNDATION to raise money and help the genocide survivors. We have learned that the money raised is actually channelled to the INTERAHAMWE-FDLR to support their cause and buy more weapons so they can go back in Rwanda and finish the Job.

His last pull in AKRON, OHIO last week was even a better try. To a journalist who asked him why President KAGAME was saying that he, RUSESABAGINA, was not really a Hero, RUSESABAGINA responded that President KAGAME was not inside the Hotel MILLE COLLINES during the Genocide. He said that Kagame should start consulting some of his peoples in the government who were given shelter by RUSESABAGINA himself during the genocide. He named particulary the Prime Minister BERNARD MAKUZA.

True enough! I have never heard any official statement from BERNARD MAKUZA regarding his stay at the HOTEL MILLE COLLINES. For the past years I have monitored everything regarding RUSESABAGINA. I can state that BERNARD MAKUZA has remained very quiet during the whole time.

It says a Lot!!!!!

Greetings Sharangabo,

Yes, with all those people Rusesabagina is influencing around the world - based on his movie-star status (and how he's milking it to the max, ie HOTEL RWANDA HERO HOAX) - it's important that some of those who were in the real hotel in real life get the word out from their point of view.

All the best,
Jackie Jura

Reader Ntarugera says the world certainly deserves seeing a film based on Paul Kagame's life instead of the Rusesabagina rubbish...

Rwanda: Rusesabagina, Genocide and Identity Politics. American Chronicle, Jan 16, 2007
...A year ago, in his autobiography, Rusesabagina tested the public opinion waters when he said that Rwanda was controlled by a Tutsi elite and any Hutu who cooperated with the Tutsi was "an empty suit". At the time, I found this statement highly offensive and insulting to all Rwandans who are trying to rebuild their country. I asked many people one question: "What would you think if someone was touring Germany 12 years after the holocaust and said that Jews once again run Germany and that any good German who cooperates is not worth anything."...

"Hotel Rwanda" hero fears new Hutu-Tutsi killings, Reuters, Jan 11, 2007
Paul Rusesabagina, whose story was depicted in the 2004 Oscar-nominated "Hotel Rwanda", accused Kigali of laying the foundation for another genocide by punishing killers from "only one side" of the country's deadly ethnic conflict. "Actually we are not very far from another genocide," Rusesabagina, a critic of the Rwandan government, told Reuters in an interview on Thursday in Cape Town..."Since 1994, Tutsis have been killing Hutus, and even now there are many who are being killed, or who simply disappear," he said. "Everything has been taken over by the Tutsi. The Hutu who are 85 percent of the population are intimidated." In Kigali, Rwandan Foreign Minister Charles Murigande poured scorn on Rusesabagina's comments. "He's just out of touch with the reality of Rwanda. A firm foundation has been built and only daydreamers like Rusesabagina can think about bloodletting atrocities again," Murigande told Reuters. "He is a mere propagandist out of touch with reality." Rusesabagina, 51, and his family have lived in Belgium since 1996 with two brief trips home in that time....Kagame, his wife and most of his cabinet watched the Kigali premiere of "Hotel Rwanda" in February 2004, but has since dismissed the movie as an attempt to re-write Rwanda's history. Last year he described its portrayal of Rusesabagina, played by Don Cheadle, as false. "It has nothing to do with Rusesabagina," Kagame told reporters during a visit to Washington. "He just happened to be there accidentally, and he happened to be surviving because he was not in the category of those being hunted."

** Rwanda hero to share life story. Northern Arizona University, Jan 18, 2007
The man whose heroism inspired the movie Hotel Rwanda will discuss his story of humanity, courage, perseverance and hope at 10am, January 27, 2007 in Northern Arizona University's Ardrey Auditorium. During the 1994 Rwandan genocide, Paul Rusesabagina was temporary manager of the Hotel Mille Collines in Kigali, Rwanda. Using his influence and connections, he protected more than 1,260 individuals from slaughter. His lecture is sponsored by Northern Arizona University's Martin-Springer Institute, which invited him to speak on "Hotel Rwanda: A Lesson Yet to Be Learned" as part of International Holocaust Day...."I've become a humanitarian, and I never thought I would become one," Rusesabagina said. "As a humanitarian, I wanted to take this message on a wider scale, to raise awareness of what happened in my country so that the international community can help others who suffer now." Gretchen McAllister, director of the Martin-Springer Institute, said Rusesabagina represents the common man. "He's an individual who did not set out to make a difference or to save lives," she said. "But now he speaks out against genocide through sharing his story."...Rusesabagina is the recipient of numerous prestigious awards, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the National Civil Rights Museum Freedom Award and the Peace Abbey Courage of Conscience Award. Copies of Rusesabagina's autobiography, An Ordinary Man, will be available at a signing following the presentation.

* Hero of "Hotel Rwanda" tells own story in new memoir. Voice of America, May 4, 2006
"...All those generals who helped us, I was convincing them. I was sitting with them around a drink, talking to them...."I did what I believed was the right thing to be done," he says, "to stand up for people and say 'no' to killers...You have upstairs scared refugees and in the hotel lobby, the hotel bar, the militia men, their hunters, are coming to have a drink...."

60 MINUTES READING RWANDA (I said, "I wonder how much money the TRUE story of the genocide would make if it were made into a spectacular, and how much the people would love it" and went off on my usual tangent about how there should be a movie made about Paul Kagame and the Rwandese Patriotic Front riding down from Uganda to liberate Rwanda. And how the fact that there isn't a movie being made about the true story of Rwanda is an Orwellian example of the past being falsified and the truth going down the memory hole.)

THE REAL HOTEL RWANDA (I, personally, didn't like the movie, "Hotel Rwanda", considering it trivializing of the plight of the Tutsi the way it soft-pedalled the butchering going on outside the hotel, by instead focusing all of its action on soap-opera type events going on inside the hotel...)

RPA-KAGAME A PT-109 MOVIE (I have said in the past that I wish a movie would be made about Rwanda based on the story of Paul Kagame's life. It would encompass Rwanda's recent history (from his birth in 1957 onwards) and up to the present day and in doing so it would give people an example of heroism at its highest level - instead of low level bureaucratic heroes depicted in the movies so far...)

HOLLYWOOD HUTU HOTEL HERO (I am not like most North Americans who know only the Hollywood version of the Hutu hotel hero or Senator D'Allaire who they also name a hero, or Nelson Mandela who the government of Canada makes into a super-hero, despite his Corporate Communism...)

ABANDONING RWANDA & MAKING MOVIES (I wonder what you think about the latest movies about Rwanda, ie "Hotel Rwanda" which is a Hollywood version being heavily promoted all over Canada and USA and "Sometimes in April" which was filmed in Rwanda and aired there this weekend? Also, in Scotland, a computer game of the Rwandan genocide is being distributed to schools. It supports the UN's actions in Rwanda. My opinion of all of these productions, based on reading reviews, is that they were created by the Ministry of Truth (Lies) and don't give credit where credit is due for the starting and the stopping of the genocide...)
