Smart Power vs. Genocide
Round 1: Went to a screening of "Beyond The Gates" a few days ago. Yet another movie about the failure of the rest of the World to get their hands dirty to prevent--because it was well publicized in advance, nor curtail---because it was well known what was happening once it started---nor do anything to stop---because hundreds of thousands were being killed, the Rwandan genocide in April of 1994. Lots of hand-wringing by those who could have done something...lots of mouthing of apologies by the very same who dutifully recite the slogan "Never Again" when they have to make an appearance at those tiresome Holocaust Memorials each year.
