Reports say that Yoseri Tibuhaburwa Buzaliranwa a.k.a. Yoseri Kayibanda Rutasirwa a.k.a. Yoweri Kaguta Museveni was born in Rwanda and came as a refugee with his mother who was fleeing Rwanda. His mother married Kaguta. \He did not call himself Kaguta until he wanted to take up presidency of Uganda. He did identify with Kaguta. He knew very well that his citizenship would come into question, so he assumed the name of Kaguta, who had sttled in Ankole then.
In all his Tanzania and before presidency days he called himself Yoweri Tibuhabirwa Museveni. Mr. Byanyima knows well his history for he is the one who was Mr. Kaguta's employer, Museveni's stepfather. Reports say that his father may be Tanzanian or Rwandese. Museveni wrote an essay on - "Fanon's theory on violence: It's verification in Liberated Mozambique" by Yoweri T. Museveni. This was published in 'Essays on the Liberation of Southern Africa' edited by N. M. Shamuyarira - University of Dar es Salaam - Studies in Political Science. His graduation is questionable from the University of Dar es Salaam. Shamuyariria is a minister in Robert Mugabe's dictatorial govt. of Zimbabwe.

Many of the perpetrators of the Rwandan Genocide were tried and received life sentences. Unfortunately, many of those who participated in the genocide ran away to other countries, or went out in the bush, where pursuit is almost impossible. Part of the sadness is that the conflict is tribal, and resentments are deep. The possibility for a repeat threat still exists.

The Hutu and Tutsi were on ethnic group, and Hutu nor Tutsi did not exist, but one tribe of peaceful people.

What are the main races in Rwanda?
Rwanda primarily consists of three ethnic groups: the Hutu, Tutsi, and Twa. The Hutu make up the majority of the population, while the Tutsi historically held more political and economic power. The Twa, a smaller group, are traditionally hunter-gatherers. Ethnic tensions, particularly between the Hutu and Tutsi, have played a significant role in Rwanda's history, culminating in the tragic genocide of 1994.
Where did Rwanda genicide happened?
East north of Africa. The genocide took place in the context of the Rwandan Civil War, an ongoing conflict beginning in 1990 between the Hutu-led government and the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF), which was largely composed of Tutsi refugees whose families had fled to Uganda following earlier waves of Hutu violence against the Tutsi. Most of the dead were Tutsis and most of those who perpetrated the violence were Hutus. The genocide was sparked by the death of the Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana, a Hutu, when his plane was shot down above Kigali airport on 6 April 1994.
The genocide was planned by members of the core political elite known as the akazu, many of whom occupied positions at top levels of the national government. Perpetrators came from the ranks of the Rwandan army, the National Police (gendarmerie), government-backed militias including the Interahamwe and Impuzamugambi, and the Hutu civilian population.

Why did US help the Bosnia genocide but not Rwanda?
Because the US was worried about intervention in Africa after the events of the Battle of Mogadishu. They didn't want to intervene in Rwanda because they believed the country offered nothing to the international community.
Bosnia, however, is in Europe and the US is very interested in expanding their influence into Europe.
