Also how most people are so scared shitless of anything like the genocide happening again (beyond understandable obviously) and thankful to Kagame it hasn't, they don't really seem to mind too much about the terrible shit he pulls, because it so clearly pales compared to "the alternative", however false a dichotomy that might be.

It's done them well, but at some point the mindset will have to change.




>It's done them well

Just hasn't done much for the thousands slaughtered in Congo.

Guy's a murderous turd and the worst kind of genocidal thieving resource warlord. Represents everything Ghana, Senegal, South Africa etc are trying to relegate to history books in Africa. Sooner he's gone, the better for Africa. People won't look at Africa as being quite so barbaric when a certain set of leaders finally die off. Kagame is definitely chief among them.


Those thousands slaughtered in the Congo murdered close just under a million before they fled across the border, so perhaps it isn't so cut and dry.


So, hopefully a country is more than their president?
