No, the
real criminals are those that massacred the Tutsis. There are currently over 130,000 people, the majority of whom are or were members of the
Interahamwe, awaiting trial for crimes against humanity and genocide.
Or do you believe the Hutus were mere pawns in the hands of Western nations?! Certainly the international community are guilty of not intervening, but to claim they are the real criminals in the genocide is extremely disingenuous.

Paul Rusesabagina, the hotel manager and focal point of the movie is Hutu, his wife is Tutsi.

And she was the only "character" of that ethnicity according to the review.
Anyway, I'm not commenting on the actual genocide itself, but simply providing details on the only published review I've seen of the movie.

I have to wonder how the U.S., the U.N., France, etc. would react if 90% of the U.K. systematically murdered the other 10%. I doubt very much those governments and organizations would turn their backs. And I doubt very much the press would be as silent about it.

I agree.
