It relates to my groups research question because its talking about how there trying to rebuild Rwanda and continue to make and keep it a better more peaceful place for all Rwandans. -[|http://allAfrica.com/stories/20090160221.html] President Paul Kagame, called a retreat known as 'Umwiherero', brought around 200 top government officials as well as Ambassadors and Prime Ministers.’Beyond Aid: Mindset for Delivery and Development' was the theme for the retreat which led to identifying important strategies to help them find solutions for overcoming obstacles to Rwanda's socio-economic reconstruction. “We aim to make a breakthrough in how processes in the three branches of government recognize their interconnectedness in creating prosperity in our country.” Dr. David Himbara “Weakness in any one discourages serious investment – we can never get the amount of investment we aspire to in a disjointed framework… - Dr. David Himbara They seem to be getting the government together without out any outright landslide power struggles. The powers in government seem to be evened out to the Hutu’s and the Tutsi's.

 * Even today they haven't left the genocide behind them... Hutu extremist was convicted for shooting down the Hutu president that STARTED the genocide. JAN 12

**


 * Ethnic Groups**: Hutu (Bantu) 84%, Tutsi (Hamitic) 15%, Twa (Pygmy) 1%

 NAME: DATE STARTED/FIRST ACTIVE: 1994. GOALS: Topple Rwanda's Tutsi-dominated government, reinstitute Hutu control, and, possibly, complete the genocide begun in 1994. MAIN ANTI-U.S. ACTIVITIES TO DATE: In 1996, a message — allegedly from the ALIR — threatened to kill the U.S. Ambassador to Rwanda and other U.S. citizens. In 1999, ALIR guerrillas critical of alleged U.S.-U.K. support for the Rwandan regime kidnapped and killed eight foreign tourists, including two U.S. citizens, at the Congo-Uganda border. STRENGTH: Several thousand. OPERATIONAL LOCATIONS: Mostly Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda, but a few may operate in Burundi. AFFILIATIONS: In the Congolese war, the ALIR is allied with Kinshasa against the Rwandan invaders. From the Rwandan invasion of 1998 until his death in early 2001, the Laurent Kabila regime in the Democratic Republic of the Congo provided the ALIR with training, arms, and supplies. COMMENTS: The FAR was the army of the Rwandan Hutu regime that carried out the genocide of 500,000 or more Tutsis and regime opponents in 1994. The Interahamwe was the civilian militia force that carried out much of the killing. The groups merged after they were forced from Rwanda into the Democratic Republic of the Congo (then-Zaire) in 1994. They are now often known as the Army for the Liberation of Rwanda (ALIR), which is the armed branch of the PALIR or Party for the Liberation of Rwanda. NOT a Designated Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO), but listed as "active" during 2000.
