4.2.5. Amasezerano y'urusobe
The title of the book ``Amasezerano y'urusobe'' in
kinyarwanda can be translated in English as ``Problematical truce''.
In the year 1996, after considering that the country was
threatened from outside, the Government of Rwanda decided to launch an
offensive war and to track its enemy in DRC (former Zaïre). In few months,
the rebellion sustained by Rwanda ousted the government of DRC. Unfortunately,
there were misunderstandings between the new leaders of DRC and the Government
of Rwanda. So, some Rwandans living in DRC were hunted. This led to the
beginning of the second war between Rwanda and DRC.
In this book, Rwandans who had taken refuge in DRC continued
military training and got ready to attack the country. Then, invisible RPA in
possession of some strategic information preferred the offensive war to the
defensive one and launched the war against DRC. Its experience in rebellion
tactics helped in good commanding on the behalf of Rwanda during this new war.
During the second war between DRC and Rwanda by interposed
rebellions, the Angolan and Zimbabwean troops' intervention stopped the Rwandan
troops to advance toward Kinshasa for the second time. The truce between
different parts in war permitted the foreign troops' withdrawal from the
Congolese territory, but the war continued in the East of DRC between different
armies and militias (proxy war).
4.2.6. Amahindu mu Ruhengeri
The title of the book ``Amahindu mu Ruhengeri'' in
kinyarwanda can be translated in English as ``Torrential rains in Ruhengeri''.
With the support from the government of DRC, the Rwandan
rebels resumed the war by infiltration in the year 2001. This war didn't last a
long time because the population from the Northwestern region of Rwanda had
dissociated themselves with rebels.
This book shows that during the war in the East of DRC,
several thousands of Rwandan rebels simulated a diversion and, despite the
presence of RPA in DRC, infiltrated Rwanda through the Northwestern region.
Then, the national army's supreme command, knowing that war's
effort depends on the strategic situation, decided to mobilize quickly its
troops and their narrow collaboration with the local population permitted the
defeat of rebels in short time.
4.2.7. Isezererwa
ry'ibisesereza
The title of the book ``Isezererwa ry'ibisesereza''
in kinyarwanda can be translated in English as ``The end of hate''.
Indeed, the problem of unity and reconciliation was serious
among the Rwandan people after the war and the genocide perpetrated against
Tutsi. This policy was not easily understood but, gradually, a large number of
Rwandans began to realize the importance to live in harmony with neighbors.
In this book, the history is concentrated on two families that
lived in the same village but hated each other too much. Even, parents
prevented their children to speak each other. They realized later that their
children didn't belong to them; in the past, the two women belonging to these
families had delivered the same day in hospital and the nurse who helped them
had committed a mistake to mix their children without identifying them
previously.
Consequently, this situation allowed these families to put
aside their hate. Here, the main character appears merely toward the end of the
work without saying a word, but he was commented on by one of characters who
tried to make others understand what really happened in recent history of
Rwanda.
The analysis of these CS allowed the researcher to find out
that the author tried to avoid some fanciful interpretations or politically
oriented, knowing that to be incapable to justify facts put in stage, to
substitute the fiction to the reality when one takes for conspicuous historic
events plot, it is making the readers ridiculous, because among these last
there are those that don't have any means to distinguish the things.
The CS (like the historic movies) inevitably mixes what
happened, what could have happened and that was not probably ever happened.
But, in this case, most details are exact and when they are not, there is often
a rational explanation that minimizes the mistakes. The author forced himself
to be able to justify facts put in stage while not depriving CS the
intellectual depth that heightens the quality of the artwork.
