Rwanda Is Not Over Needing Aid, But

There Are African Leaders Who Have The Dangerous Habit Of Leading Their People Into An Abyss. In Rwanda We've Had Presidents Who Killed. The One Million People Who Died Here Were, To A Certain Extent, Victims Of Their Leader, President Juvénal Habyarimana, Who Died In A Plane Crash Before The Genocide Began. He Contributed To All That. The Man Who Took Over From Him Was Running Around Ordering People To Kill. If This President Came Back And Landed In My Hands, I Would Have Him Arrested And Tried. Unfortunately, He Died A Natural Death.

Aid Leads To More Aid And More Aid And More Aid And Less Independence Of The People That Are Receiving Aid.

Rwanda Is Rebuilding Itself Once Again As One Nation And That Is The Reason Why We Are Making Progress. Now Many Rwandans Are Making Their Ends Meet And Others Are Able To Do Better Than They Have Before.

A Strong Leader Is Not Necessarily A Bad Leader.

Human Rights Are Not The Preserve Of Western Activists: The Definition Must Extend To Encompass The Right To The Dignified Life; The Right To Send Your Kids To School, For That Child To Get Health Care, For Access For Greater Prosperity For Generations To Come And To Have A Say In The Destiny Of Your Community And Country. Under That Definition, Rwanda Has Nothing To Learn From Advocacy Groups Who Think They Own The Copyright On What Constitutes Human Rights Under All Conditions In Every Corner Of The World.
