Gemini Shake Hands with the Devil: The Failure of Humanity in Rwanda

No Title

Review

A view of the madness in the world, the tradgy of Rwanda. Most revealing about what happens when you mix the incompetent UN together with a wishy washy general whom to my liking from the book is too good natured.

My favourite paragraph and which sums up our world today is:
If the entire planet is represented by one hundred people, fifty seven live in Asia, twenty one in Europe, fourteen in North and South America and eight in Africa.
The number of asians and Africans are increasing every year. Fifty percent of the wealth of the world is in the hands of six people, all of whom are American. Seventy people are unable to read or write. Fifty suffer from malnutrition because of lack of nutrition. Thirty five do not have access to safe drinking water. Eight live in substandard housing. Only one has a university or college education.

Makes you think, definately worth a read.
