Why didn't Bill Clinton act when even worse atrocities were happening in Rwanda just a year before?

To his eternal discredit, he did nothing.

Because it was mid-term election year.

He was and is a crude narcissist never capable of expending political capital in a way that would harm his political fortunes.

Sort of on topic, I just saw the Bush/Cheney ad with clips from the Olympics. It is truly beautiful.

Oh, come on. Bill says he was never told genocide was going on in Rwanda. Hands up if you believe him. Hmmm, I don't see any hands.
