Listen to your stats, victim: 1.65 million Cambodians, 800,000 Rwandans: These people could have rose up against their opression. They could see the people dying all around them. They had a chance to make a difference, but they didn't. I don't believe the Khmer Rouge killed all 1.65 million at the same time. I don't think all 800,000 Rwandans died within minutes of each other. These people had a chance. They could have worked together.
I know there is terrorism everywhere. I know more people have died than in 9/11. Unfortunately, third-world countries don't exactly have the best situation. That is why they are third world countries. Cambodia and Rwanda both lose more people to starvation than terrorists. If the terrorists wouldn't have got them, starvation or disease probably would have. I know that is a terrible outlook but sometimes you just have to accept the facts. That doesn't mean that they deserved to die, but it wasn't as major a loss.
