When I read the popular opinion in here it's usually how the U.S. is behind this war, started this conflict, backed a puppet government, etc........
Excuse me! The more I read on issues the more pissed I'm becoming...(BIG HIT...AHHHHHH better!). I honestly feel that the U.S. is getting alot of backlash due to it's Allie France...check this shit out:

Ensconced in refugee camps, primarily in eastern Zaire, the perpetrators of the Rwandan genocide have regrouped, rebuilt their military infrastructure, and succeeded in asserting their control over the civilian population in most of the camps during the last year.4 Acting with impunity, these forces rule over the refugee population through intimidation and terror, effectively preventing the return of refugees to their homes in Rwanda, while inducting fresh recruits into the former Rwandan Armed Forces (FAR) and militias.5 Emboldened by military assistance, including arms, from France and Zaire, among other countries, they have openly declared their intent to return to Rwanda and, in the words of one ex-FAR commander, Col. Musonera, "kill all Tutsi who prevent us from returning."6 Currently, the ex-FAR has an estimated troop strength of 50,000 men in over a dozen camps, and has brought the militias more tightly under its control.7 These forces have launched cross-border raids to destabilize the already precarious situation in Rwanda and to obtain information and experience for a future offensive against the current government in Kigali.8 In addition, the ex-FAR and Rwandan Hutu militias have aligned themselves with Hutu militias from neighboring Burundi, inflaming an already tense situation inside Burundi and threatening to regionalize the conflict.9
The U.N. applies sanctions. The French Government finds a way to dodge the sanctions for a buck. Genocide took place and they still show support with military sales?
When I read that Clinton knew of Rwanda but did nothing I was disgusted and a little ashamed of my countries actions. After reading this, it was basically a political game with a good allie. I hope all these fucks burn in hell!!!
P.S. Next time you want to point the finger at the U.S., take a closer look. There is very well a little creep with chapeau not to far away!!! :mad:
Keep in mind to, Rwanda recently released 36,000 prisoners from the genocide!
