Hotel Rwanda

According to the sources and movie the Europeans failed the Rwandans by letting them die by machetes, and guns by the Rwandan army. The Europeans promised to bring troops but the troops were just there to take the whites away and let the rest suffer. The UN tried to help but they only had 300 peacekeeping troops that were not even allowed to shoot for the entire country. Also the UN went in to the maelstrom without a plan. Another example is the Belgium soldiers left the Tutsi refugees in the UN compound that was guarded by Belgium soldiers who abandoned them while they escaped to the airport. The European troops besides the UN thought that Africans were dirt and they didn't care but the UN did care so that proves not all people are good. Also, like in India the low caste people were not treated well. Then there were armed shipments from the French caused most of the massacre because it was in the center of the city at an affordable price.
