Admittedly, this is old news. But it is important nonetheless. The Rwandan government released a report outlining France's participation in the 1994 genocide. Stephen Kinzer's column summarizes the reports findings. If the reports allegations are accurate it provides a rather horrifying example of a modern Western nation facilitating atrocity. There is, however a debate regarding the motives behind the Rwandan Report. France has denounced the report.
It will be interesting to see how this all shakes out.
