10 years since the Rwanda atrocities: Let's not forget. |
|
I distinctly remember the Rwanda genocide. Since then I have read a few books on the incident while earning my BA. Something that seems to have been forgotten. Let's not forget.

2. We didn't do anything... |
|
and we could have easily. It wouldn't have cost us hundreds of American soldiers lives and hundreds of billions of dollars to make Haliburton and Enron stockholders richer. For a few thousand troops and a few million dollars, a million Rwandan lives could have been saved, but since there's no oil in Rwanda, the US along w/ the rest of the world, stood by and watched the genocide take place.

on PBS. It was horrific genocide. The images of the dead matched the WWII holocaust.
