Did you know that the French were behind the Tutsi genocide

In 1990 the Cellule Africaine(a French 'advisory unit' for Africa) was headed by Jean–Christophe Mitterrand, son of President François. Meredith(historian) recounts how, when a Tutsi rebel army equipped by Uganda approached Rwanda in October 1990, ‘it fitted directly into the French notion of an Anglo-Saxon plot… With little hesitation, President Mitterrand, a personal friend of [the Hutu president] Habyarimana, authorised the despatch of French troops to Rwanda.’

Over the next year, French forces oversaw the expansion of the Hutu armed forces from 9,000 to 28,000 men and set up arms deals that helped the regime buy $100 million worth of arms from Egypt and South Africa, despite mounting evidence that they were preparing for genocide. Central to this was the French mercenary Paul Barril, who, even once the genocide had begun in earnest, signed a contract of assistance with the interim Rwandan government that was carrying out the butchery. French involvement in Rwanda is recounted in the memoirs of UN commander Roméo Dallaire, who helplessly watched French aircraft delivering arms to the genocidaires. French soldiers, believing they had been sent to prevent an invasion by the Tutsi rebel army, were horrified to find themselves protecting mass-murderers and required by their government to set up a safety zone which gave the fleeing genocidaires safe passage into Zaire.

And their reasoning behind it was to resist anything Anglophone. Eff these French c*nts.

Subsequently, DR Congo plunged into conflict when two million Hutus(which fled Rwanda fearing reprisals) sided with the Congolese gov against Tutsis in DRC, then the Tutsi led Gov in Rwanda started to back rival miltias fighting both Hutu militias and DRC gov, which led to the deadliest conflict in post-colonial Africa killing 5 million people between 1994-2003.
