Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : "Earlier last year, we documented how Rwandan forces, and M23 had fired 122mm rockets, hitting displacement camps," she told the BBC."It's certainly with the kind of military support that the M23 has received that they've been able to make such an advance [on Goma]."The UN experts have documented many such examples, including the use of Israeli-made anti-tank guided missiles.
40% : Their fury is focused on Rwandan President Paul Kagame, who they accuse of backing the rebels - an accusation long made by the UN.To put it bluntly, a group of UN experts maintains the Rwandan army is in "de facto control of M23 operations", detailing how M23 recruits are trained under Rwandan supervision and supported by high-tech Rwandan weaponry.
