Ghosts Of Rwanda (12/12)

A history of the Rwandan genocide in which the Hutu Racial extremists the Interahamwe systematically slaughtered the Tutsi people and non-racist Hutu's. Told through documentary evidence and interviews with every major figure involved it documents the incredible brutality but also the kindness and heroism of those involved.
A gruesome, grotesque and deeply powerful documentary which tells of the horrors of the events and of the reaction to mass murder by each major Western government. To turn away, to not care or to pull support from them.
On a personal note I have taken the time to do this as no documentary has meant more to me than this and as Darfur rages on its message has never been more important.
For information on Darfur may I recommend and urge you to read "The Death and Rape of Darfur" in the British Journal Of Criminology

How dare Clinton show his fucking face in Rwanda?

[sherhak]

this keeps happening, but only after it's done, everyone claims to be so moral and go and lay flowers. lying sons of bitches. when it's in progress, they don't do a damned thing. it just happened again in darfur, and no leader from the west did anything. "never again" keeps happening, bosnia, rwanda, darfur...

Very sad to think how many victims had to suffer and the millions who were left with cut limbs etc. if the western nations can invade and supposedly "liberate" Libya, they coup easily have done this in a couple of days ad would have saved thousands of lives. Oh wait Rwanda had no oil to offer the western nations. So sorry tough luck fellows you have to fight your own war. Really sad I am not sure how the leaders of that time that decided to turn a blind eye to this genocide are living in their

i hate the fact that nobody had enough courage to make the hard decision and that nobody risked looking bad to help.

having said that i dont like the fact that people are saying if u dont take action u are a coward as it was in this case and i agree with that but when action is takin people flip and change there opinion and view to saying how dare you take action u r just being at war to be at war and hypocrisy starts running rampid.

just my opinion

This is a story of a few great people and many many selfish cowards.

@MichaelCasanovaMusic O now Clinton shows up. That coward waits until the war is over and does shit and leaves. What is with our presidents?

[preemptivestrike20]

@bbowler2 So were you proud when the US liberated Iraq and Afghanistan then? My money says you weren't. Hope you get my point.

[Valtyful]

@rabbitwho - and the Senegalese Captain, he also saved hundreds..

[fdavyes]

I am sorry, but I just can't keep quiet. Why do the United States GOVERNMENT (not the People) like to always look good in the fucking picture? They kept discussing if the word "genocide" was appropriate or not, while innocent were being killed! If you did nothing during the problem, just shut the fuck up when it finishes because it's too late and you're fucking words of sorrow are uselees. SHAME ON YOU CLINTON ADMINISTRATION, AND YOU CALL YOURSELF A DEMOCRAT, A MAN OF FREEDOM???

[BayAreaOrBust]

Fuck Belgium, fuck France, fuck the United States of fucking America, and fuck the UN!

I'm sorry, I'm just angry over the fact that 1 million people were slaughtered an no one did a thing about it. God bless the Red Cross though.

Marcus Garvey taught us to unite and improve ourselves as a race of Africans. Until we revisit the philosophy and teachings of Marcus Garvey we are truly pissed!! No more than a handful of any set of people will fall and the US will come running - if their is oil or money interests!!!
