"we all die... dying without doing anything, to me, was a failure" Paul Rusesabagina

I just finished Hotel Rwanda. Few films have moved me to tears. None so many times. I tear up at the end of Life is Beautiful and the last scene in Saving Private Ryan when he talks to the graves, but Hotel Rwanda got me so many times. Hotel Rwanda is a mix of Life is Beautiful & Schlindler's List and every bit as powerful as both... if not more so. It hits hard, because you know it happened on your watch, in your lifetime. This story will move you if you have a pulse. Go rent it.

Tip: Make sure to watch "A Message for Peace: Making Hotel Rwanda" and "Return to Rwanda".

Rich, mentioned he was upset more wasn't done. And I don't know, but it certainly makes a case for if you have oil or if you're European (Kuwait, then Iraq, and Yugoslavia), we'd like to help, if not, best wishes. Although, I'd argue that Somailia shows that we'd like to help, but then thought better of it after seeing the results.
