Hotel Rowanda

In the film "Hotel Rowanda" I think Jack the cameraman is right when he explains to Paul that when people see the film from the geneside that they will think that it is a terrible thing, but contimue on eating their dinners. When people hear or see of something unjust occoring in other parts of the world, I do believe that many feel terrible that something so horrific, such as a geneside, could actually be happening right at that moment. However, intervention seems almost impossible. I think the reason people do not help is not because they do not want to aid those in need, but because they have absolutely no idea how to help. Watching the movie, I thought about what people from other countries could have done to save the people of Rowanda, but I could not think of anything. The only way to stop the rebel forces in this movie was through milirary force, and many countries are not even able to supply their own country with protection let alone a foreign one.
