#1 Somehow, NPR managed to cover this back in 1994. And somehow, the story vanished as quickly as it had come.

#6 The previously secret diplomatic telegrams and government memos also suggest the late French president was obsessed with the danger of "Anglo-Saxon" influence gripping Rwanda. In three months from April 1994, at least a million Rwandans - mainly Tutsis - were systematically slaughtered in killings engineered by the Hutu regime to exterminate its ethnic rivals . . . .

I guess a million human lives is a small price to pay to keep the eeevil "Anglo-Saxons" from influencing Francophone Africa, especially if it's nobody you know.

Weasel.
