"They mean so much to me and I'm proud to represent them on the inside of my jacket."

President of DRC chose a global stage in Brussels today to prove the age-old saying: le ridicule ne tue pas.
Putting shame aside, he asserted his peace loving nature, forgetting the many times he threatened to invade Rwanda and overthrow its leadership. Followed this with his favorite act: claiming victimhood of the very conflict he caused and has refused to resolve.
For clarity, this is what the arm of peace he claimed to extend today, looks like:
✅ Arming and supporting FDLR, a genocidal force, and making them an integral part of the national army.
✅ Supporting militias that persecute, kill, burn Congolese alive based on ethnicity
✅ Denying M23’s Congolese identity to evade responsibility for resolving the crisis.
✅ Begging for help from every continent, only to turn around and sabotage any sign of progress.
✅Hiring mercenaries to fight his wars (but still losing).
✅Scapegoating Rwanda as the cause of the entire nation’s failure to deliver anything for citizens, while leaders loot an absurd amount of national resources with friends and family.
As President Kagame has said:
“There is no use arguing with those who have repeated their lies long enough, they have come to believe them.”
“There are no lessons Rwanda needs to be taught about the meaning of peace, those of us who have fought for peace know its price.”
When you cosplay as a leader but rescind & backtrack on every promise/agreement, do you assume the public suffers from collective amnesia, or is that just another feature of the delusional package?
“If you want to know how many times the FDLR has attacked Rwanda, just look at the travel advisories some of your countries have issued. Every time the FDLR attacks Rwanda, you advise your citizens not to travel to that part of the country."
If 21 attacks in 31 years are not enough to invoke Article 51 of the UN Charter, which threshold justifies that?
“It happened to us once. We listened to preachers, and we were slaughtered like cows. It will never happen again.”
