Rwandan killers speak

During that killing season we rose earlier than usual to eat lots of meat, and we went up to the soccer field at around nine or ten o'clock.  The leaders would grumble about latecomers, and we would go off on the attack.  Rule number one was to kill.  There was no rule number two.  It was an organization without complications.

That is from Jean Hatzfeld's Machete Season: The Killers in Rwanda Speak.  I will post more about this remarkable book soon.  Here is one good review of the book.

The Rwandan tragedy is part of professional military education as an example of situation t'would have been better if everyone had done nothing.... in which case the world would be mourning the victims of a civil war.

Jared Diamond's book "Collapse" has an interesting section on the Rwandan genocide. Its suggests overpopulation as the ultimate cause.

According to some the translation could be better:

"What a shame. What a waste. What a shame that (the award-winning) Ms. Coverdale didn't question her choices more closely, get past the first draft stage; what a shame her editor didn't intervene."
