Rather than say too little too late, I am of the mind set that better late than sorry is appropriate for this case. True she was responsible for a lot of death and destruction in the great lakes, but that does not mean that, and I am hopeful that after realizing how she was manipulated, she would have continued to push for punitive measures for genocidaires including kagame.

I am not sure about any such evidence she may have had either, but that just means I have more work to do, as well all do.

My reaction when hearing this news was: tragic ending, but good riddance! She was an essential figure in shaping & legitimizing the mainstream ‘planned genocide’ narrative. Never questioned being led around by the RPF. Never revised her initial charge, despite having it rejected by a court she testified in (& palyed a major role in establishing!). I guess I’m less willing to give a pass just because she managed to bring up RPF atrocities 10+ years later. Like McNamara’s remorse – too little, too late. & correct me if I’m wrong, but did she ever point to RPF responsibilities in the events of those ‘100 days’?

If it’s true, as the commentator above says, that ” Des Forges had evidence to support Kagame’s involvement in the assassination of President Habyarima that triggered the atrocity in the country” (which I don’t recall ever seeing mention of anywhere), whre’s the report?
