WHO FUCKING CARES IF IT IS DIFFICULT? ITS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR EYES. YOUR IN A POSITION OF POWER. WHY CAN'T YOU DO WHAT YOU SAY YOU WILL?!!!!!

[dicemanace]

The united nations is absolutly worthless.

[a1175779]

@dicemanace its a step in the right direction to a unified means of responsability shared between countries.. the first steps may not be the biggest.. but for a world still made of discriminating factors such as nationality religion and such this is a strong step indeed..

just as once upon a time countries were made up of rivaled states and opposing sides.. in time we can only hope that we can all start to accept eachother as bretheren

[ExquisiteDoom]

I can't beleive stupid bastards say the US didn't help for racist reasons. Fuck, don't you think there's more to it than that? I personally have no idea but i'm sure as hell that the race card has nothing to do with it you stupid cunts, it can literally be thousands of reasons , to just say "racism" is fucking dim witted.

[kimmulakshmi]

In every fucking genocide,the US Goverment knew but did nothing!!! Fucking humans. All better dead than alive. If ur alive & useless u're better off dead!!!

[ouano1]

u cant expect US to be there everytime, and when they are, they are accused of being war mongers and trouble makers, it is best america stay away from such as these, everytime she helps she gets blamed in the end, y cant other powers lead? canadians? europians? they always brag and criticise america, and cant even have their own initiative

[hamrite]

Many officers would have acted against their commanders, and it is sad to say that most generals that make history, Rommel, Mc Arthur, Patton, Ben Gourion, have a tendency to overrun their doubts and run into action with generally success. This submission to UN commands are sad but the wrong folks were in NY at the times, and this guy should have run into action. He is and will remain an office personnel commander, not a field commander.

[aliceladylike]

who knows if 800,000 people died. some say there were more, others say less. but one thing's for sure- innocence has been raped by injustice, and the world is never the same.

[Avetisahkyans]

All the crimes comitted against humanity

are result of keeping silence ,toward the armenian genocide,that was the begining ..

EVEN Hitler said , WHO REMEMBERS WHAT HAPPEND TO THE ARMENIANS

[Adjei88]

@Avetisahkyans true the armenian genocide is one of the first recognised, but you can even go further back to the namibian genocide (youtube it) which was in pre colonial years, germany in 2006 finally said what happened there was genocide, lets hope the turkish have the humility and respect to do the same

[Avetisahkyans]

In 1915, under the cover of the war, the Ottoman government resolved to expel Turkey's Armenian population (at the time about 1.75m) entirely. Their plan included deportation to the deserts of Syria and Mesopotamia (now Iraq). Hundreds of thousands of Armenians were driven out of their homes and either massacred or force-marched into the desert until they died. The German ambassador to Turkey wrote home:

[Avetisahkyans]

'The government is indeed pursuing its goal of exterminating the Armenian race in the Ottoman Empire'. Between 1915 and 1923 the western part of historic Armenia was emptied of Armenians. The death toll is reliably estimated to be over a million. Those who did not die fled to the Middle East, Russia or the USA.EUROPE

[coyoteman1980]

Realistically, Ottomans made a mistake by allowing those people of Orthodox Origin practice their religion,culture and language freely. Orthodox Church did nothing but fueled hatred against Turks in Ottoman Empire. Obviously, One thing lead to another some rotten apples ( ARMENIANS ) got perished in between.

[knottchristopher]

Lets not forget Guatamala under Reagan

or the eradication of some Native American tribes under Roosevelt. Reps have their black marks as well.

[pocnar]

Cambodian genocide-- under Carter

Rwandan genocide--- under Cliton

I wonder if that tells us something about the Democrat Party.... do gooders who seem to be paralyzed when they REALLY are needed to do good. Bastards

[ArabianKnight1201]

2nd gulf war under BUSH senior

3rd Gulf war & Sept 11 under BUSH JR.

[pocnar]

precisely... wars not genocides.

Hey is it true that Mohammad had sex with 9 YO ayesha?

[repudiatedimmortal]

And what the fuck did Bush do when the genocide in Darfur started in 2003? He did fuck all. He even declared it a genocide. He also started two wars that have killed an enormous amount of civilians and US troops.

[pocnar]

if bush would have intervened in yet another muslim country (sudan, dafur) then people would have screamed as shit. Also, bear in mind that the number of deaths in dafur = 300-400 thousand. Deaths in Rawanda= 3 million. In cambodia = I am not sure but u can see it on wikipedia (etc) for yourself.

[repudiatedimmortal]

1million were killed in Rwanda. Cambodia was 1/4 of the population (2-3million). I know the most about the Cambodian genocide.

Regardless, Bush came out and called the situation in Darfur a GENOCIDE. That means internationally, action needs to be taken. Nothing has been done. It's been more than 9 years and it's still going on.

What did Bush do? He started two wars and got us into the predicament we're in now.

Republican presidents start wars.

[rwilli1228]

hardly enormous. i like to listen to my grandfather talk about how out of touch with reality today's generation is. he saw more killed in one day on saipan than in the entire iraq and afghanistan wars.

[lost2darkness]

Regan - provided money and weopans to Saddam Hussein to fund the genocide of the Kurds AND money to the Taliban.

i.e. that administration created the problems we are now dealing with today - it MADE the world the way it is now, ACTIVELY giving money to those that later attacked us. Bastard.

[pocnar]

lost2darkness: -

U r revisionist. I'm sure u also blame america for the "indian genocide" & call Israel the occupier. Here is the rebuttal 2 ur two assertions on Reagan. The guerrillas funded by CIA were far more moderate than Taliban, Taliban is a post 1990 entity that was born out of heavy funding by saudis and pakistanis. CIA was justified in Afghanistan because it was theCOLD WAR yea big deal!

Yes he funded Iraq (funding started @1979 with Carter) but it was 2 fight Iran not Kurds.

[lost2darkness]

Just saying - if you're going to say that democrats did nothing you need to look at other administrations who did just as bad or worse.

I dont think any of the presidents did the "right" thing.

The Cold War pretty much was the excuse to allow the U.S. destroy a lot of governments, some bad some good but it has led to a lot of chaos in many areas that has still not been resolved. U.S. action during the cold war and then inaction after, refusing to clean up our mess is rather disgusting.

[davshammer]

ww2 was only the beginning of the genocides that was and is to happen on this satelite or, in human terms, this planet. human suffering, in the next translation will excede all human suffering combined from the beginning of the first translation to the present.

[cdnserbluvr]

Romeo is famous here in Canada as a hero of human rights.

[bosniangirl22]

So much of these coments are so true. I have nothing to say cause everyting has been said.

[Carinined]

To this day i do not understand the persons logic to not help.

[keyzerxeance]

@Carinined its all about world power's politics my friend... dont u get it?

[silentfades]

@Carinined it is called racism and greed

[RedStore4]

Clinton played politics (see the part about Somalia) instead of doing what was right (sending more troops to Rwanda to stop the genocide.)

[pfdog]

I'm a Canadian who proudly met Dallaire.

Yep...Including the great Bill Clinton turned his back on this genocide. 800,000 people were killed with machetes in only 100 days.

The Americans WERE already there, and they left!!!

The famous phrase "Never again" is just empty rhetoric...depending on the colour and nationality of the victims.

Shame!

[NifoOtiBoy]

There weren't any Americans in the U.N. force in Rwanda at any point in time. But I will agree with you the Clinton was a coward, he pulled us out of Somalia which continued its downward spiral of chaos, ignored the Bosnian genocide, ignored the Rwandans, and ignored islamic extremists.

But don't simply make the americans the scapegoat here, there are plenty of other nations with adequate forces for peacekeeping missions as well.

[joeiacovino]

@pfdog

but they were just "acts of genocide"

[derwentalia]

dallaire is a rare example of a truly civil human being. most of white canada is rank with racists who cannot even give basic regard to the first nations people who live in 3rd world conditions while white canada enjoys all kinds of luxuries, resources and privileges on the backs of the indigenous originals; its remarkable that dallaire is the person he is given the country he grew up in. he is one of the few white canadian men i have respect for.
