Burundi: L’ingérence de Washington et de l’UE ne sont pas inévitables

"Shinduje est un ami de longue date de Samantha Power, actuellement l’ambassadrice états-unienne au Conseil de Sécurité. En effet, en 2001 il a mis sur pied, avec Samantha Power qui en a été la co-fondatrice, la Radio Publique Africaine. La RPA a obtenu très vite un accord de partenariat avec la Voix de l’Amérique, la radio officielle internationale de Washington."

Creating Failed States | Next up: Burundi

As noted by Charles Kambanda, a former professor at the University of Rwanda, what really is happening in Burundi is that multinational corporations are seeking to create a failed state — as they did previously in the Congo — in order to plunder the resources of the region. Avaaz*, an NGO co-founded by Perriello, has called on the UN, US and EU to send in the troops–much like it did in Libya and Syria.

Murder in Honduras

"Murder of indigenous activists in Honduras has prompted the UN Special Rapporteur on Indigenous Peoples, Victoria Tauli-Corpuz*, to issue a warning about state-sponsored ethnic cleansing there, where, since 2010, 44 indigenous activists have been killed to facilitate free market development. Unfortunately, Corpuz fails to mention the US role in this atrocity. "

Co-opting Indigenous NGOs

"Ford Foundation propaganda at Indian Country Today is meant to co-opt indigenous NGOs in support of Wall Street-funded initiatives. As a supporter of World Bank mega-development on indigenous territories, Ford supports the corporate and state neglect of indigenous human rights. Dependence on Ford and its brokerage International Fund for Indigenous Peoples limits strategy."

No One Listening

"As for civil society NGOs and academic institutions, they have mostly succumbed to the aristocratic paternalism of philanthropic foundations, now functioning for the large part as public relations agents for privatization."

Avaaz Hones In On Burundi as Next U.S. Fait Accompli

So, the key question now is this: Can Burundi defy the Empire and protect its people from carpet bombing called ‘humanitarian intervention’, a terrorist invasion called ‘liberation’, a military coup called ‘transitional government’ and a possible genocide where once again the victims will be blamed?"

Are the US and the EU Sponsoring Terrorism in Burundi?

"But in the case of Africa, constitutional councils are regularly scoffed at by Western powers when their decisions do not conform to neo-colonial interests and neo-colonial interests, not disputes over interpretations of the country’s constitution, are the key issue in the current Burundian crisis."

Rwanda and Burundi : Who’s ‘promoting instability through violence’?

"Isn’t it more important that Victoire Ingabire and Deo Mushayidi remain in prison in Rwanda, that Rwanda is harboring renegades who’ve declared war on Burundi and that the U.S. is trying to oust another popular Hutu president? I’ve not heard anyone deny that Pierre Nkurunziza is hugely popular with Burundi’s very poor, rural, Hutu peasant majority. The Burundian opposition, whose voices have been so amplified by the international press, simply leave the country’s very poor rural majority out of their conversation."
