Review of Shake Hands with the Devil: The Journey of Roméo Dallaire (2005) by Frederick M — 23 Oct 2008
A great documentary which tells the story of Dallaire in Rwanda during the genocide. It's amazing to see how no one responded to this crisis and yet quickly responded to what was happening in Yugoslavia.
My one problem? Dallaire's roman-catholic spiritualism whereby he says he could feel "the coldness" of the "evil" men who orchestrated the genocide. There are no evil men and good men.
Just men. What these men did, they did because they were human, not because the devil tapped them on the shoulder.
