A true, graphic, horror story we should remember always...

When ordered to surrender....
On 6 Apr 94, while on their way to Rwanda, via aircraft, Rwandan President
Juvenal Habyarimana and Bruundi's President Cyprien Ntaryamira both died
when their plane was shot down as it was preparing to land in Kigali, Rwanda's
capital and largest city.
Both were preparing to salvage broken-down negotiations that had been
taking place, under UN auspices, between local warring factions, mostly tribal.
They never made it, but their deaths served as the spark!
What happened over the next few weeks was the "Rwandan Genocide," wherein
nearly a million people, of all ages, almost all non-combatants, were
slaughtered. A few were shot, but most were beaten, stabbed, burned, drowned,
buried alive in pits, and/or hacked to death. As we have now come to
expect, Western European nations, the bumbling UN,
other African nations, and
the USA, all knowing full well what was happening, did nothing to intervene.
Rwanda's Prime Minister at the time, Agathe Uwilingiyimana, along with here
husband and their three children, were being guarded at their home in
Kigali by ten Belgian Paratroopers from the crack Para-Commando Regiment,
operating under UN supervision.
Sporadic gunfire could be heard all around, even before the plane was shot
down. It took a quantum leap in intensity afterward, and everyone in the
house knew they were all in extreme danger.
In fact, Uwilingiyimana, her husband, children, and all bodyguards were
already targeted for extermination by the Rwandan Army, who had surrounded the
house during the day.
Early the next day, 7 Apr 94, Thursday, an Army spokesman demanded that the
Belgians lay down their arms and surrender their protectees, as well as
themselves. The paratroopers
proudly and defiantly declined, as they
prepared to fight it out, supremely confident that rescue was already on the way.
It wasn't!
Those ten brave Paratroopers had already been written off as a "strategic
sacrifice," the Belgian government considering their deaths a "small price
to pay" for the avoidance of an "international incident." Of course, they
may not have felt that way it had been they personally who had to pay "The
Butcher's Bill."
The Paratroopers' downfall was their radio. Unfortunately, it worked!
They received orders from their battalion commander (who was nowhere near the
action) to immediately give up their weapons and surrender themselves to
Rwandan troops, leaving the Uwilingiyimanas unprotected.
They never fired a shot. They obeyed orders!
The Parotroopers were immediately captured, beaten severely, and stripped
naked. Then, their Achilles tendons
were all severed, so they couldn't run
away. They were subsequently hung up by their arms, castrated, their
genitalia stuffed into their mouths, as they were simultaneously disemboweled.
The Uwilingiyimanas fled and took refuge in a nearby UN volunteer
compound. Rwandan soldiers surrounded the building, but Agathe and her husband
quickly emerged, unarmed, with their hands held high. No sooner had they
stepped out, when they were both, without a word being said, shot to death
where they stood. The identical fate would doubtless have befallen their
children also, but they had been secreted away at another location and
miraculously lived through the holocaust, eventually being smuggled out of the
country.
A local was quoted as saying, "There are no devils in hell. They are all
here in Rwanda!"
In the sixteen years since, little has improved in Rwanda, and it remains
today an extremely dangerous place.
Families of the ten Paratroopers never received an apology, either from
Rwanda, nor the Belgian government!
My comment:
Never surrender, no matter who orders it!
Fight it out then and there, if that is your fate. In our age, when you
surrender, you'll be murdered anyway. For one, I'd rather die fighting,
even against heavy odds!
With politicians, no matter where they are, there is no loyalty. Lives
means nothing. Never expect to be "rescued".
Find a way to win on your own.
Don't wait
Don't hesitate
Don't ask
Don't apologize, and
Don't look back.
...and, don't expect to be thanked.
