You would think that by now the CIA would at least be humble enough to admit that yes, indeed, they assassinated Lumumba and his dangerous dreams for " economic independence, social justice and political self-determination, and his hostility to a political setup based upon tribal divisions, which the colonialists had effectively used to divide and rule Africa," as the Rwanda News Agency reports. Recently declassified documents say that they had a plan, which makes it sound like they did not do it, when everyone else knows they did.
Then you also have the November 2001, Belgian government commission's report, which " concluded that authorities in Brussels and Belgium's King Baudouin knew of plans to kill Lumumba and did nothing to save him." They did nothing "to save him"- what a travesty!
If the CIA cannot simply apologize, let alone admit, for these acts of terrorism, it leads one to wonder whether the so called declassified documents are a facade of a facade. Think about it!
