You need to get your priorities sorted out.
1.7 million were murdered in Cambodia by Pol Pot.
800,000 were murdered in Rwanda.
Where was your voice then ?

The UN did nothing then, either.
Pol Pot was stopped by Vietnam, not because of the mass murder, but
because Vietnam was pursuing its own interests in destroying the Khmer
Rouge. Nevertheless, I at the time supported the invasion by Vietnam
BECAUSE it stopped the mass murder (not that it stopped the Vietnamese
from continuing their more selective killing ).
In Rwanda the murderers were actually protected by the French forces, and
the murders continued in the regions under control of the French. France
at the time thought that it was more in their interest to protect the
Francophone than to stop the killing.

No one can say that the US at least tried to address the problem of Pol
Pot during the disastrous Vietnam era.
As for Rwanda, Canada Lt.Gen.Romeo Dallaire tried all they could to stop
the genocide, but they were turned down by the UN.

And Saddam is a cold blooded murderer who didn't think twice before
assassinating anyone he deemed suspicious. There is no hypocrisy in
that.
One wonders why there are so many ready to kiss the ***** of Saddam
despite mass graves that show he killed anyone of any age who were
merely suspicious of not holding him in the godlike status...
