This is it; ...@ anonymous July 27, 2012 1:07 AM <br /><br />This is it; you have just confirmed that you are indeed mentally and intellectually challenged. Go and get your own blog where you can do your thing the way you want. Stop using someone else's property to expose your insults and limits. You come into someone’s house where you are welcomed and allowed to express yourself but you choose to insult the owner of the house. This is indeed a sign of poor upbringing, if you do not like the house, just leave and go to a house that suits you or build your own. By the way I forgot to mention that this is you guys preferred habit that is going to other people’s property (OPP) and trying to monopolize the said property and make it yours and in the process bring barbaric killings and mayhem, things you guys very well and are so used to. Leave Congo Siasa alone, there are a lot of positive thinking people on this blog. Bring your constructive criticisms if you can and if you have any, to the dialogue that goes on daily on Congo Siasa.<br /><br />May be the name of the blog should be changed to Rwanda Siasa perhaps, to make you feel better.<br /><br />LobokoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1209670742820403516.post-23774917218312877962012-07-27T04:16:52.080-07:002012-07-27T04:16:52.080-07:00I am sure that Jason Stearns would have enjoyed wo...I am sure that Jason Stearns would have enjoyed working with RTLM!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1209670742820403516.post-26986008986069150862012-07-27T01:07:32.275-07:002012-07-27T01:07:32.275-07:00@ JULY 26, 2012 6:01 PM, 'congo siasa etiquett...@ JULY 26, 2012 6:01 PM, 'congo siasa etiquette', what is that exactly? congo siasa or indeed Jason Stearns are promoters of ethnic hatred, no one doubts about that!!!

Emotions, however, are running high, and some of the recent exchanges here have been pretty nasty. The last thing I would want is for this site to become a forum for insults or ethnic taunts. So please, stick to constructive and substantive feedback.<br /><br />I have also made my email available so you can alert me to offensive comments: jason [dot] stearns [at] yale [dot] edu.

Obadius(he or ...@ Anonymous July 26, 2012 4: 45 AM<br /><br />Obadius(he or she) was originally from the DRC when the DRC was providing shelter, free education, safety… When things started going bad in the DRC, he or she became Rwandese. I bet that soon when the situation in the DRC starts to improve, he or she will reclaim the DRC citizenship. It is this questionable loyalty, this duality, this flip flopping, this hypocrisy that get a lot of Congolese who grew up in the 70’s,80’s with our Tutsi people with no problems whatsoever to be very critical of their behavior. We can name a long list of our Tutsi people who were educated for free in the DRC (like most DRC citizens at that time, this is what the DRC has done for you and nothing beats an education) and who today are in the National Assembly, the government, the army, the police, government agencies…<br /><br />Please stop this persecution business. The record is getting old, it has been played so many times that it is scratched. The DRC Tutsi people need to be more vocal in defending their country, the DRC if it is theirs too; especially since it has been established that their cousins in Rwanda are arming M23 and others (for years), where is your outrage, you are the ones associated with creating the mess in the East with your cousins, the elite in power in Rwanda, please stand up for the DRC if it is yours too.<br /><br /> The DRC has been going through a rough time for a while, things are not where they should be (because of incompetent people like JK a product of the Rwandese army) but the situation is bound to change. In the meantime, we are not running to Rwanda to enjoy its development “Mirage” because for one there is no space there and the “Mirage” is build on shifting sands and the blood of millions of innocent Congolese who had nothing to do with the barbaric and periodic killings that Rwandese seem to enjoy over the years and have exported to the Kivus.<br /><br />LobokoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1209670742820403516.post-63641822987494103582012-07-26T10:27:38.773-07:002012-07-26T10:27:38.773-07:00I feel sorry for all those sing Kagame kagame as i...I feel sorry for all those sing Kagame kagame as if without him Rwanda cant stand.One thing you should now is that Kagame has built strong institutions,stronger people behind him so whether he goes or not Rwanda will never backslide.Small as it is ,it will always shake the so called bigger ones (Congo).Its not about size and richness in minerals my dear ,its about knowledge/capacity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1209670742820403516.post-39283773241700676772012-07-26T10:08:27.933-07:002012-07-26T10:08:27.933-07:00@ Jose,

The US launched wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and engineered a war to overthrow Muammar Gadhafi in Libya. In reality, what the US-led defense forces brought to these countries were deaths, destitution and humanitarian crises. The truth is, by emphasizing self-proclaimed efforts to promote democracy and protect human rights, the West is trying to eliminate dissenting voices and fulfill its geopolitical interests.<br /><br />The West is now resorting to the "Libyan model" to intervene in Syria and seek the UN Security Council's authorization for military intervention. It's for this reason that the US and its Western allies keep demonizing the Syrian government and supporting the Syrian opposition. Actually, the US and its allies should be held responsible for the prolonged unrest in Syria."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1209670742820403516.post-20215483707351460022012-07-26T09:37:43.379-07:002012-07-26T09:37:43.379-07:00I like all those people talking about how good lif...I like all those people talking about how good life is in Rwanda compare to other African countries.

Contrary to your country,Rwanda as a state with a long term vision is not a member of the ICC.
