Phil Taylor set the background for the interview with Mr. Le Beni Tazira: There was an attempted coup in May, and this last weekend uniformed people with trucks struck at three military posts in Bujumbura, capital of Burundi. For some reason, the Canadian government and the US government decided immediately that the elected president of the country is the problem and not the terrorists. The terrorists attacked three military posts, resulting in numerous deaths. Ottawa and NY are tallying up the body count and attributing it to the army. They are trying to make it appear the dead are all civilians. If you carry out a coordinated military attack on three separate military posts, you are not civilians. If you get shot in the process, you are the first one who is not surprised. We don't need that kind of bunk coming from Ottawa but that is what is going to happen. Mr. Tazira is Burundian American, and he knows the background.
Le Beni Tazira provides an historical account of President Pierre Nkuruniza from being a professor to a becoming a popular rebel leader and the popular socialist thinking and democratically elected President of Burundi.
