I hate being the complete asshole but Genocides happen when one of the five permanent members of the Security Counsel vetoes a resolution. In this case the Hutu's thought the plan out and forced the Belgian withdrawal which ended any realistic UN peacekeeping force. The US refused to get involved because of Somalia a month before and China and Russia could give a rats ass. France was the only one really involved and they pulled out immediately because of bad past experiences.
It was glaringly obvious in 1994 for anyone who tuned into CNN, CBS CBC or BBC that there was a genocide taking place.....and.. what did we (i.e Canada, US Britain France etc) do NOTHING!!!!! Why? cause they were all BLACK that is why!!!!. If the 1994 genocide happened in a "white" country such as Germany, Holland, Norway or Canada the US NATO and the entire world would have done something.
There was genocide going on in Bosnia to white people, and nothing was done. The Nazis killed 6 million white people and no one intervened to stop it. Now look at Darfur, it's happening again and no on is doing anything. I don't know why no one ever steps up to stop something as awful as genocide, but they never do.

The book is achingly painful, i strongly urge you all to read it then pass it along, and along and along. I have not yet seen the film but General Dallaire says it is a most faithful interpretation of the facts. On a human level words fail me. I hope that one day General Dallaire can find some measure of peace in the certain knowledge that he, and others like him, stood up when it mattered in the face of so numerous unconsciable acts.
brilliant film, i saw it the weekend that it came out! sadly what will be the outcome of what's happening in Kenya today? People need to see these kinds of films today, so they don't repeat the past tragedies...
We the UN stood and watched while a genocide took place, shame on us.

Precisely.
The war on terror is and always was minor in comparison to the ongoing genocide in Africa.
I thought that was our first obligation, anyway.

The Nazis killed 11 million white people in the holocaust and caused the deaths of 40 million white people.

Perhaps, but where were the other African countries when all this was happening?
