We write to Rwanda and the genocide of 1994 where Africans took to the matchete to emphasis their point in national Rwanda history. The historical connection between the two tribes seeking redemption at the front, and the two dead presidents led the way to the disastrous bloodletting between two tribes. Over 1 million of these people died in fewer than 2 days. It may or may not be the human part of us that believes in taking lives but the police often mention that getting there on time is far more important, prevention is thin as ice but preferred to curare. If Rwanda 1994 is a satirical remove from our human experience and capacity for evil, there is other things worthy of our higher calling, in Africa, in South America, in Middle East, and right here in our United States, that administrative casualty hardly include the upper rung of the society but intelligence failure is one tie binds all; families, duties and loyalties, which not untie.
We take special interest in this year's Thanksgiving for great things done to others and not ourselves, and for failing to see the difference. We remember with limner's luck that we are one older by thanksgiving, a far searching acceptance that the hills are not on your side. Those who give the most usually receive the least, in war, in peace, in conflict, in goodwill and in friendship. Few days ago - our country celebrated Veteran Day in keeping memoir for all the friends of the military that are no longer at ease. It is not the first and perhaps the last of such celebration anywhere in the world or since the beginning of human written history. it has always being the case that in history we face the facts of war and casualties of its reality. So it seems that the year ends with thanksgiving as it began, but one fiber of reflections gets us closer to our privileged humanity, that without the help of others - there is always an ending which over-state its beginning. But in history if not politics, out attention is not always with the fields unconquered or those undone by these of violence, we remember with thanksgiving we are not like many others, that 'evil triumphs because the good men do nothing', for failing to remember some of the great breakthroughs in our history of the world, especially the Africans far from our homes and families, grateful for a running government and perhaps the rule of law.
Somalia for many years remained the clutter of war torn enemies and enemy state said to be opposed to United States, and in Angola there was disquiet in almost every political era beginning with Crude oil discovery, the UNITA Rebel forces in Uganda were a problem in Africa until the election of Barack Obama. Almost a year in office all these headaches came to a grinding ends. These circumstances of politics are not political in summary and defective demonstration of Washington Consensus, but it mirrors the debt between an overall position of a state and their reactionary tendencies to the rest of world. It mirrors the role of African Union and United Nations in handling some of the problems with human and natural disasters.
Has it always the case? Perhaps,
But at the buck and sheen on the process of conflict in Congo is the whole sale pricing of Congo’s most priced assets. Millions of lives where crucified in the names of military expedition with world breathing terror on the neck of even neighboring African States such as Mozambique, Tanzania, Botswana, and Rwanda; where at the instigation of two French expatriates – perhaps robbed of some of their treasured resources or forced out of it by military, took down a presidential jet that led two tribes suspecting each other into long and bloody massacre in 1994.
Leading image of transition and hope for Rwanda, expressing equal fate in a fighter taking his or her stand and defending what's important. The music is sultry - the reflections are part of the past but the one single act of vigilante explains the other and the story is different for several reasons. Whereas the political tension between the Rwanda Patriotic Front and the army pleases the logic for European entrance into the fabric, there are new realities that make all of victims of our designs.

In Defeat: Defiance,
In Victory: Magnaminity
In Peace: Good Will.”
We may point too clear that no case in recent times separates Washington D.C from what is Beijing or the immaterial cases of Consensus than the problems of DARFUR, which then and now divides and bridges Sudan (South of Egypt), for here, in one area, the Chinese and the zootomic India fresh from buying away parts of Tanzania with world’s greatest land real estate, were no longer content on dictating to Tanzania – An African Country – were now interested in partnership China in removing the natives from Oil Rich areas of Sudan. It is an argument – but in the nature of the history of English intervention in the Egypt and the success and consequent failure of Gordon to secure peace for England, widened the problems in Egypt and Sudan at the hand of Malamud and his compeers.
There were eventually removed from power under conspicuous circumstances and in the place of the ancient kingdoms in Sudan, the 800 year war against Islam and with Islam against other versions of Islam came to a defeat and new betrayal. This artificial insemination of cultural distinction and intervention of super power in lesser developed economies, it part time economical and over time, there are serious questions of dominance and political interest and perhaps control.
The toss between control and a consensus is a practical issue of money.... George Clooney had some clue on what happened in DARFUR but the debt of the problems and why American needed a new leader summarized America from a different era.
