  1. To those who are not aware, the spirit of “The Interahamwe” is here.

    The Interahamwe (Kinyarwanda meaning “those who stand, work, fight, and attack together” it is a Hutu paramilitary organization.

    The militia enjoyed the backing of the Hutu-led government leading up to, during, and after the Rwandan Genocide.

    WE must SAVE the Bahamas, because the world will stand by and WATCH, allow us to kill one another. Then they will move in to collect the spoils and reclaim the Bahamas as theirs.
