Samantha Power is set to mark the 20th Anniversary of the genocide in Rwanda. 

It doesn’t seem as though there has been a healing solution–that it could happen again if the conditions were right.

Hotel Rwanda is a graphic film about the genocide…that was ignored by Bill Clinton, even though he knew of the “final solution”.  It’s sad to read the Catholic Church’s connection to the advancement of Tutsi…at the expense of the Hutu. Glad that they changed their thinking later, however, to help the Hutu.

Note how the Eugenics ideas are behind the Tutsi being put into power.  And the acts of privatization caused poverty and slave labor.

They used identity cards to identify Hutu and Tutsi….the purpose can only be to keep Hutu in their “place”.  Gah, it is so much like Nazi Germany…a holocaust not for religion, but for ancestry!

The use of rape as a war tool is highlighted in the piece.  It’s often ignored as part of the war casualties numbers, as a woman’s issue, so its inclusion is hopefully a sign of measuring the true numbers of casualties of war.  As I read this, I think about the resulting pregnancies…and it just seems so contradictory to their goals of eliminating the other–they ironically reproduce, mixing blood and genes and all they claim to find disgusting.
