Nice to have a powerful friend. If not for his boss they'd all be dead.

[@usul573]

Well it would come down to Paul having to tell them who they had, sacrificing some, or everyone getting killed.

[@thetwitterlectual9528]

Yes, he had to act, otherwise everyone in there would have been killed, and the airline Sabena (who owned the hotel) would have had blood on their hands.

[@bigj1905]

I love how it shows just unaware they majority of people were about the Rwanda genocide. Despite having terrible atrocities and violence, not much of it was broadcasted to the Western People, likely for a combination of lack of coverage and intentional repression by the U.N and EU

The French also advised the Hutu Army to cover the bodies with leaves.

[@evoman1776]

I distinctly remember this being in the news everyday for weeks. I saw the news stories and remember thinking - This can't be really happening, it's too horrible.

[@HavanaSyndrome69]

Yes. Western powers got a bad rap for not sending in their armies but that takes a massive amount of effort especially for the time constraints being "immediately". The US had the power projection capabilities of making it on time but it needs to be approved and when you get there who do you fight? The Hutu? That would have been an absolute mess all the while everywhere the US military ISN'T there are massacres happening. You'd need to garrison the whole country all while being attack in hit and run ambushes. The US public wasn't ready for that so soon after Somalia and other interventions like this. The people who criticize the US don't understand what exactly they could do to stop people on the other side of the world from killing their neighbors with machetes so spontaneously. If a neighboring country sent over their troops it would have made much more sense but they let it happen too despite being next door to the genocide.

[@chrismarple]

A final hope for Rwanda because it is so sad blame the politicians for doing this

[@enizle5]

alex kanyima no, blame tribalism. A constant theme in African conflicts.

[@dkessler6255]

Tribalism was not a problem in Rwanda before the arrival of colonialism. Hutus, Tutsis, and Twa cohabited peacefully, though not equally, until Belgians came and arbitrarily decided that Tutsis were a superior race. Before that, they designated classes, not races; Hutus could actually move upward from their lower social stratum and become Tutsi by acquiring more material wealth. Much as the Nazis made up Germanic racial facial types, Belgians propagated the myth that Tutsis looked one way and that Hutus looked another. Twa were already set apart by dint of their short stature and were also targeted during the genocide.

[@Trazyn_the_Infinite_40K]

D Kessler to be fair the Belgians only exacerbated these issues.

[@dkessler6255]

Alex Warnke kind of an understatement, no? Belgium fucked up Rwanda beyond all recognition-as did many other colonizing countries elsewhere in Africa. It was largely agricultural and, as I said, peaceful before they arrived and completely restructured the social system and power dynamics. Their presence did Rwanda no favors at any point. Gérard Prunier is a great authority on this and I highly recommend reading him to understand the pervasive and ruinous nature of colonialism's effects on Rwanda if you haven't.

[@Trazyn_the_Infinite_40K]

D Kessler actually I heard the Belgians merely exacerbated existing tensions.

Paul's entire story is like a choose your own adventure story where you narrowly make every choice to survive. Unbelievable.

[@NarquelieNarmo]

France saw in the RPF a threat to it's presence through the Hutu governement, because the RPF was formed of Tutsi coming from Uganda and Burundi and exclusively anglophone, unlike the Hutu whom were francophone. Therefore, a RPF would have strained Rwanda from France.
