just trying to figure out where you're coming from here, i would think that the UN forces on the ground, that actually DID save as many people as they could without getting everyone they were protecting massacred by putting them into their compound.
if they'd preemptively assaulted the command / supply centers that the genocidal mob used, they'd definitely have died in vain as they had no assault capability whatsoever.
that action would have been throwing in with paul kagame of the uganda-based rebels, who were blamed (probably wrongly) for the assassination of rwanda's leader right before the massacre.
i ask you:
if the massacre was preplanned before the assassination, how could the UN forces have opposed it without being overwhelmed themselves?
