An Ordinary Man-Final Comments

Following up, Rusesabagina warns Rwanda's current state fosters the same corruption that will bring Rwanda back on the verge of genocide. The author was forced to leave his own nation because of threats to his life. From what Rusesabagina has stated on the current situation in Rwanda (using tribal mediators to resolve the issue of murder, many avoiding punishment) a simple discussion cannot remedy the emotional destruction the genocide caused.

As we end this discussion we hope and pray that events like this never occur again. It just seems so difficult to diagnose genocide or any other injustice to humanity in this world. As the conflict in Darfur still prevails and tensions rise in Zimbabwe we must simply hope the international community does their part to effectively prevent such devastation.

Rusesabagina says he did what was only good, what came natural. Psychological theorists have said mankind truly serves to be "good” Sometimes it’s so hard to see the good in this world, especially after events like the Rwandan genocide. Paul Rusesabagina did the amazing which shows that an ounce of good can save thousands.

Thanks for the discussion,
