By an odd coincidence, this unfortunate bit of news popped up, just as I had Rwanda on my mind: the hero made famous by the 'Hotel Rwanda' movie, Paul Rusesabagina, has been arrested by the Rwanda authorities. He was living outside the country, but apparently has been forcibly returned with the cooperation of some other nation. He had been in exile since 1996, after an assassination attempt. He has been a critic of long-time Rwanda president Paul Kagame, who is believed to have sponsored assassination of exiles abroad in the past.

Rwanda authorities say Rusesabagina is accused of leading a violent terrorist group.

A reminder of how the world works when corrupt strongmen control the power of the state.
