Everyone has heard of the Rwandan genocide of 1994. But everything you have heard about the so-called “hundred days” is either a distortion, a misrepresentation or a downright lie. That lie is still being used to perpetuate myths about the value of interventionism. In this incredibly important episode of The Corbett Report podcast, James does honour to the dead by breaking the staff of misinformation that the liars use to cast their spell on the public.

Not liking the fact a prominent Tutsi was stating that the mass media version of events was false and that the RPF forces the prosecution refused to charge were responsible for most of the killings, they decided, in a secret meeting with the prosecutors, to announce in court that they were going to eliminate his testimony from the record. When all the defence counsel objected, we were met by a stone wall. To cover up what they did the daily minutes for that day were doctored as well.” |

I’m sorry, but the Rwandan genocide is NOT a lie. I read a book written by one of the few people that survived. She was in a bathroom for several weeks hiding with like five or six other women. This was a very tiny bathroom. She lost her entire family, except for one brother who was out of the country going to college in another country in the African continent.
The report does not deny that hundreds of thousands, or perhaps over a million people died. The report exposes who is responsible for the deaths and the who victims were. Did you listen to the report?
Agree. I too have read her story.
Just curious, but did you bother to watch the video? Even just watching less than 15 minutes into it, you will hear James say that he isn’t saying that all of those Rwandans weren’t murdered. He’s saying that the official narrative of the Rwandan Genocide is a lie. That should come as no surprise to anyone who is actually paying attention.
BTW, I met Immaculée Ilibagiza (the woman you alluded to in your comment) about 15 years ago. I shook her hand and spoke with her briefly. A brave women who had been through hell. I don’t think anyone could dispute her story. It’s horrific. But sadly, considering she later went on to work at the UN, I think she believed the official narrative as well.
Hook, line and sinker. JC likes these type of titles, just to see who actually watched the video/read the article.
He does? LOL Where and when did James reveal this?
Many times during the intervies JC will do his Sixpack Dad voice when pretending to be people in the crowd telling him off for articles (based on the title) such as “Bitcoin is a psyop”.
It’s happened on several occasions, but I can’t offer a reference. I believe it’s a more common occurrence when he’s the guest in the intervies.
Maybe some examples could be found in substack transcripts.
It is obviously my construal that JC likes doing this, I have no way of knowing what does the man like, but this happens too often to be an “accident”.
No doubt you’re right, here.
Nice observation. I’ll be listening for that humor. Street theatre is my favorite. On the spot in the space.
It’s a shame to see someone try to discredit another, without ever investigating what was actually said. Having said that, it sure makes it easy spot the trolls, and propagandist, right?
The internet is too quick these days to paint the read-the-title-did-not-read-the-article people as trolls. This is a common occurrence, trolling takes effort and intent.
Maybe the meaning of trolling as a fishing term would help folks be clear as to what it implies.
Did you even bother to watch or listen to the podcast?? Or are you just using the caveman part of your brain to emotionally react to something you clearly fail to have any understanding of?
The episode does not include any claims whatsoever opposing the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. There are no claims that countless didn’t suffer.
You are making the blatant claim that James Corbett is wrong and his assertion is false, while backing your claim up with information that is wholly irrelevant to everything within the episode.
A little bit of modesty and mindfulness goes a long way in helping yourself from blindly parroting the propaganda you’ve been programmed with simply because your feelings tell you that you are in the right.

Raw milk? My father grew up in a family of 8, all drank raw milk, no problem. He fed us (family of 4) illegal raw milk, no problem. I’m 81, buy illegal raw when possible.
It’s pastured/homoginated milk that is a health problem, especially homogenated that clogs arteries.
Apparently you didn’t understand that I was listing all the LIES by the government.
Indeed, our local farms have been over inspected/regulated to the point they can’t produce raw milk and cheese products.
Yea, I apologize. I got carried away with my pet peeve.
On business regulation I would like to see a poll. What % of regulators would say that business couldn’t thrive without regs? !00%? What % of employees would vote for regs?
What % of small to upper-middle business owners would want to be regulated?
Is ownership possible without control? If the state controls, then it owns, and the “owners” only manage.
Should the employees be able to take management away from their boss using government’s coercive authority?
Thanks.
IMO the nature of bureaucracies is sort of like the shark that must always be moving to live. For them, they must always be creating new laws, regulations, etc. to maintain funding and survival of whatever group they are with.
I am owed over $1000 in travel pay since last June, being held up by the VA petty tyrants in the Phoenix VA Beneficiary travel department.
One of the best things Mr. Trump did was to initiate a 2 removals for every 1 new regulators in part of his swamp cleaning.
Historically, some of the first impositions of regulations on trade were in the area of ..how is it said officially? …hoarding. Holding grain stocks until scarcity raises prices. Stuff like that. It’s interesting, actually.
I have increasing difficulty in coming to terms with such high death counts. To murder a million people with machetes or otherwise “manually” in a short period of time does not sound very plausible.
Comparing with, for example, Dresden where the assumption is 100 thousands perished and it took massive destruction and mayhem to reach that psychopathic goal.
Agreed. The mechanism of injury does not seem to be able to cause death so rapidly. Although cutting large arteries can result in death in minutes or maybe even seconds if multiple arteries are damaged.
Knife or blade wounds can result in incapacitation and death rather quickly but usually this is after multiple wounds. However usually people are able to put up a little bit of a fight and that takes death longer. A machete is a large heavy blade though so maybe it would be easier to kill more quickly.
Such a timely piece, James, and marvelous deconstruction of the imperial propaganda! And by “timely”, I refer to the recent attempt by the same lying murderous Empire to stage a UNGA resolution condemning the “massacre in Srebrenica”, purportedly committed by “genocidal Serbs” against the “poor innocent Bosniak civilians” during the Bosnian war in the 1990s. It rhymes so well with the “Rwandan genocide”!
Well, coincidentally, Kit Klarenberg has just recently exposed the gaslighting agenda behind the staged condemnation regarding the crimes against humanity committed (and omitted) in Srebrenica, although his work unfortunately is published on jootube: https://youtu.be/QJtuhRWtNK4
Also, another propagandized “massacre” which never happened, at least not in the way that is being portrayed by the Western narrative-setting vermins, is the “Rachak massacre” fabricated by “the butcher” William Walker, and used as a means to justify NATO’s illegal (in all terms conceivable) military aggression against “genocidal Serbia/Yugoslavia” in 1999.
Long story short, one must never take at face value any “massacre” story that is swiftly being picked up by the Empire’s propaganda pushers!
I wonder how many Germans were Nazis, the % who attended those filmed rallies? How many just went along, like Americans have since WWII, with the Korean “police action”, “Nam invasion” (4 million dead) over a decade, the Afghan invasion for two decades and all the lessor invasions?
Empires are empires, all supported by their victims, their citizens. They are shown, educated, and then…revolt? No. They practice “willful forgetness”. Remind them tomorrow and they have amnesia. The next iime you see the forest of white tombstones in a graveyard, remember the cooperation of the victims who proudly volunteered to kill/be killed for The Military Industrial Complex (US Empire).
Is this why zombie movies are so perennial, so popular? Do their audience relate on a deep, deep subconscious level? How did our species survive this long?
How convenient that the 30th anniversary of a fake genocide is being commemorated now. All this hoopla while a real genocide is being committed in Palestine. You just can’t make this shit up.
It’s what the great inversion is all about.
Thanks James. To me, knowing a new and different way that we are lied to is important. I just don’t know why? What was or has really been gained? Whoever is still in charge and making money there.. was it, is it, worth it? To me, it seems like these people are just doing it to see how many people they can make suffer. I guess that is why I like your solution watches so much more.. and your last one is great. Aaron Day!!
My best advice, BCH. Buy a little, spend a little. Every great journey starts with a first step.
F’n ell James Corbett, do you ever sleep? That publishing speed of high quality content is insane!
As I was not following you yet 10 years ago, this story was unknown to me as all I knew about it is mainstream news from 1994 an Hollywood, as you correctly presumed.
Very interesting!
Great work James!

I already knew a lot about the distortion surrounding this topic but you took it to a new level James.
That's why we love you!
Best regards to you and yours.
Though I haven’t yet listened to this, it immediately recalled the time Dan Jason of Salt Spring Seeds in BC, Canada, was sent by the Canadian Heritage Seed Foundation to do a seed swap with folks in Ethiopia.
Dan told me afterward, or wrote to me actually, that he expected from all that had been said , that he’d see horrid starvation everywhere. This was shortly after the Ethiopian …starvation? Anyway, he said no one was starving, though they were all quite poor in comparison to Canadians, yet what was amazing was how happy they all were. And kind.
A lot of folks think the “third world” is starving. That’s a cultural misunderstanding. In the west, we were told to “finish all the food on your plate because some kid in china is starving. ”
The truth of the matter is that in Asia, the polite thing to do is to always leave some food uneaten in your plate so that your server will know they gave you enough, and more than enough.
So if a kid is starving in China, it’s due to politeness. If you had to live off the portions in Tokyo Airport though, you”d starve to death side by side with your finances.
I read a book some years ago. Brilliant. Swedish or Dutch woman, used to work with an NGO, and ended up doing an expose on the lot of them. They were purposely causing and faking conflicts to keep the money train rolling. They know folks would rather send twenty bucks to Siberia than ten to their own struggling neighbor. They’re hoping they can get the neighbor’s land for cheap when it’s lost.
Episode 459 – The Rwandan Genocide Is A Lie certainly belongs in “The Best of The Corbett Report” and Corbett’s main documentaries. https://corbettreport.com/bestof/
For me personally, time and again throughout this 80 minute presentation, my jaw dropped at the blatant, gross revelations.
I admit that I had been duped by the narrative of the film “Hotel Rwanda.”
I had never delved deeply into the story, because it was ‘over there’ and ‘years ago’.
If it wasn’t for this week’s Corbett Report, I would still be wearing that film’s narrative.
Every year with Corbett, I mature. I am so glad that I am a member of The Corbett Report. I am proud to be here.
~~~~~~~~
1:10:00 James Corbett says
“…this STORY, and deconstructing these myths and lies.
But I guess once again, we’re back at the question of “WHY?”…
“…WHY might this history and understanding, TRULY understanding the lies
— not just kind of generally “Yeah, we’re lied to about everything,” –
but knowing specifically how these lies are perpetrated, the types of tactics and tricks that they use to perpetuate them and to propound them.
WHY would we possibly want to know about that?
In order to break the staff of their lies, shove it in people’s face to show them that they have been duped for decades and to break the myth, break the spell of the narrative makers who make up myths and lies so that they can more easily sell their agenda to the public.
WHAT KIND of AGENDA?…”
“…Hotel Rwanda…the overwhelming propagandistic message of that film, the real reason why it exists…
…the whole point of that movie, over and over and over again, they stress: “Oh, it’s just the international community. They’re not stepping in. They won’t do anything”…
…”If they cared about us, they would come. We need their help. We need their intervention.”
They use that exact phrase numerous times throughout the movie.
And that is the point….”
Yeah, any time there’s a Hollywood movie associated with it, it’s probably a red flag indicating some deception going on.
Hollywood is a propaganda manufacturer and movies and art etc. that come from it are likely distortions. It’s really unfortunate to learn the extent of lies that have been told.
It’s rather shocking.
“millions murdered” in minutes,, its said that DEW’s can do it.
https://science.gc.ca/site/science/en/safeguarding-your-research/guidelines-and-tools-implement-research-security/emerging-technology-trend-cards/directed-energy-weapons
I wonder if the “life is cheap” mode of perception, that allows people to suddenly unleash machetes’ of rage or tap the tip of their joy stick (drone piloting from nevada whilst killing in Yemen via video,, has got to be at the top of the wankiest acts ever heap), or slowly stir their martini whilst mulling over the order they’ve just placed that will eventuate in an entire planets population (of humanoids) to be mostly exterminated.
I wonder if that is latent in everyone? Its clear how some are coerced to that position, others have to be threatened with thousands of cuts before deciding to kill back, a few revel in other’s suffering.
In my experience, the majority of people tend towards positive ethics. Its not so funny how a miniscule number of people can influence and own the majority’s thoughts and flow on gestures. (I guess thats the whole point of this site).
maybe thats what our job as humans with consciousness is? : to transmute our response to “life is cheap”
A regular bombing raid can murder millions in minutes.
Thank you for this wonderfully informative presentation.
I am surprised by your insistence that the Hutus and Tutsis are not tribes, because I have always believed that they are tribes, or were so historically. This belief of mine aligns with a narrative from a book: _The State: Its History and Development Viewed Sociologically_ by Franz Oppenheimer © 1914. Are you familiar with that book?
Oppenheimer lays out a historical pattern showing the formation of a state in stages. Starting in a pre-state landscape, a tribe of herders gradually takes dominance over a neighboring tribe of agriculturalists. Eventually this dominance grows to what we recognize as a state. From my remote viewpoint the Tutsis and Hutus fit that narrative.
You point out that in present times the identity of individuals can shift from Tutsi to Hutu or the reverse. But I would say that such present-day fluidity does not rule out a history of one tribe dominating another.
Of all your work, this piece really cut deeper and deeper as I watched it. I know the crazies steeped in their own insecurity, omnipotence or both, are without question capable of a lot (since we let them because of our inherent decency believing who would do such a thing…), but somehow trampling on the dead bodies of hundreds of thousands of ordinary people living their lives to conjure up one piece of their globalist puzzle for their future sick societal system, that was a tough pill to swallow.
“but somehow trampling on the dead bodies of hundreds of thousands of ordinary people living their lives to conjure up one piece of their globalist puzzle for their future sick societal system, that was a tough pill to swallow.”
Indeed, its hard to come to terms with how depraved and sick human nature is. But we have been warned. Repeatedly.
For example, these are the words of Jesus spoken a couple of millennium ago.
Mark 7:21-23 – For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
However, man’s potential for evil isn’t the only thing God warned us about.
Be prepared for things to get much much worse. As the saying goes, “you ain’t seen nothing yet”.

https://corbettreport.com/interview-891-christopher-black-destroys-the-myth-of-the-rwandan-genocide/
Christopher Black is a Toronto-based international criminal lawyer who has spent the last 14 years successfully defending former Rwandan Gendarmerie General Augustin Ndindiliyimana at the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda. In that 14 years, Black has uncovered copious evidence about what really happened in the so-called “100 Days” of 1994 and the four year civil war that led up to it. Today on the program, Black shares that information with us and deconstructs the lies that continue to be propagated about the Rwandan genocide.
Thank you home remedy for providing the link properly!!!
From Rebecca
From the text:
Dr. Alison Des Forges, in her testimony in the Military II trial at the ICTR in 2006, stated that the RPF’s claim that they attacked to stop a “genocide” was a myth, mere propaganda to justify their attempt to seize power by force of arms. She also testified that the Rwandan government did not plan and execute a genocide. This accords with the testimony of General Dallaire, who also confirmed that there was no planned genocide by the government. And the deputy head of Belgian Army Intelligence, Colonel André Vincent, also testified at the ICTR that the idea of a genocide was a fantasy.
Not sure if this was already mentioned but it might explain why a certain commercial airplane motor suddenly froze during a domestic flight from Newark NJ to Buffalo NY killing a critical witness, a 9/11 widow and a gaggle of defense contractors all in one fell swoop?

Transcript to this interview and more. Will keep this updated monthly
Great episode James! I’m really glad you did it when you did, as I’ve spent some time in the recent months, following a discussion that I had with a friend of mine, researching a little deeper the so called Rwandan genocide.I was very proud of the transformation of Rwanda after the tragic episode of the civil war or so called genocide. But being also a researcher of Geo-politics and high finance using sources like the Corbett Report and others, I become very suspicious of the official story narrated by the Western media about Rwanda succeeding against all odd, becoming the Switzerland of Africa, wealthy and secure and all of that stuff. As far as I know, Rwanda does not have any natural resources to build a solid economy on. Their economy is primarily based on farming, especially tee and coffee introduced there by the europeans. So they pretty much depend on debts from the international money lenders, namely the IMF and the World Bank to function. Then the question was “how come they succeed in such a short amount of time where everyone else has failed?” So, I was suspecting Kagame to be stealing wealth from Congo using the M23 rebel group stationed there?! I also thought he was being recompensed by the western oligarchy for making sure that their access to the natural resources in eastern Congo is safeguarded, or maybe for having helped the US get rid of Mobutu the former president of Zaire.
Now the information provided in this episode shed new light on that mystery that will help me advance my research. For example, I didn’t know that Kagame was partially trained by the US military, I also failed to reference the so called civil war of 1990 and many other events preceding the “100 days massacre” of 1994. Keep going! I very much appreciate your work and very grateful for any additional information shared in the comment section here….
I listened to this thinking that perhaps Corbett had discovered that there was no murder of hundreds of thousands. Pretty quickly found that wasn’t his case. To me, the most amazing fact stated herein is that somebody in the UN was honest enough to write a note when filing the genocide fax, explaining that it was not verified to be the original.
I wonder whether, using the more modern technology of our era, that could still be done.

2014 audio interview reworked with Visuals
Keith Harmon Snow Reveals the Truth About the Rwandan Genocide
(40 minutes which includes 2024 introduction by James Corbett)
https://corbettreport.com/keith-harmon-snow-reveals-the-truth-about-the-rwandan-genocide/
FROM 2014: Keith Harmon Snow has extensive experience in Africa as a journalist, photographer and genocide investigator who attended the International Criminal Tribunal on Rwanda. He joins us today to discuss the 20th anniversary of the “100 days” and how the true story of the genocide (and who was really behind it) has been completely inverted by politicians, the press, Hollywood and everyone else with a vested interest in what happened there.
Rwanda, Biafra, Sudan, Mexico in the 1920s, Ukraine (1930s), Armenia in the 1910s, East Timor in Indonesia, Argentina, Chile, Honduras……what do all these genocides have in common? (Add the Irish genocide of the 1840s….the alleged potato “famine”……all of the victims belonged to primarily Catholic populations……it’s no coincidence.
Two interesting additional pieces of information:
– Rwandan (Tutsi) culture is drenched with and places a high value on lying and deceit
– Just when the RPF invaded Rwanda in 1990, the charismatic commander of the rebel Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) was killed and replaced by Kagame (probably not a coincidence)
