UNAMID’s Deputy Force Commander, Major-General Emmanuel Karake Karenzi of Rwanda forced to leave


UNAMID’s Deputy Force Commander, Major-General Emmanuel Karake Karenzi of Rwanda.
He will soon be leaving his post and will be replaced by Major-General Duna Dumisani of South Africa.
It was announced Rwandan Maj. Gen. Emmanuel Karake Karenzi, the U.N. deputy force commander in Darfur, is charged by a Spanish magistrate in February with responsibility in the killings of thousands of ethnic Hutus during the mid-1990s.Indeed, the Spanish Judge Merelles alleges that Karenzi, who was Rwanda's intelligence chief, had command responsibility for a series of political assassinations and massacres, including the "elimination" of Hutu populations in the towns of Nyakinama and Kinigi, Mukingo and Nkuli, between 1994 and 1997.Strange how mass-murders become war heroes; does that happen everywhere, and not just in AmeriKa? And the CONGO!That is ONE HOLOCAUST you NEVER HEAR OF!!!! And THE HOLOCAUST still goes on in both Rwanda and Democratic Republic of the Congo.But others in the administration believe Karenzi should go. "There are many in the US government who think we had to dump the guy," said one American official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to speak publicly."The message is, 'Listen to the Rwandans,' " the official said.The Spanish magistrate, D. Fernando Andreu Merelles, insisting on Karenzi's arrest, has issued an indictment in February against 40 Rwandan officials, including Karenzi and Colonel Rugumya John Gacinya, Rwanda's military attaché in Washington, for deliberate killings against Hutus in the years after the Patriotic Front seized power in Rwanda.
