U.S. Rwandan Ally is “Greatest Mass Killer on the Face of the Earth, Today”
Paul Kagame, President of Rwanda and one of Washington’s top allies in Africa, “is the greatest mass killer on the face of the earth, today, says Edwin S. Herman, co-author of The Politics of Genocide. Millions have died in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo since Rwanda Uganda, and close another U.S. ally, invaded the country in the mid-Nineties. According to Herman, a UN report showed the area of Congo occupied by Rwandan forces experienced three and a half million excess deaths – a genocide by any measurement. Yet Kagame “is a western hero.”
