In 1994, 500,000 Tutsi people were killed in Rwanda. Thousands more were tortured
and executed. Why do you suppose the international community, like the United
Nations, failed to respond to the Rwandan genocide?
a)
b)
Because the United Nations had not admitted Rwanda into their organization
yet.
c)
Because Rwanda was "too far away" and did not rate highly in the "national
interest" of being valuable enough to intervene.
Because the United Nations were too busy with the Ukrainian famine and
Armenian refugees.
d)
Because Rwandan tribes, like the Hutu and Tutsi, have been fighting for
hundreds of years.
