"As quickly as Rwanda began its descent into genocide 10 years ago [1994], the world community began its retreat from any serious effort to help stop the frenzy that killed nearly 1 million people in just 100 days. Now, amid somber commemorations of those events, one question looms large: If a similar atrocity exploded now, would the international community again 'pass by on the other side' while hundreds of thousands were killed?" (CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR) This article examines whether or not the international community is better prepared and more willing to prevent genocide than it was 10 years ago in Rwanda.
