1) Less than a thousand Cdn. troops under General D'Allaire's command. Remember, he said with 5,000 troops he could stop the slaughter.
2) Troops had light armaments, very little ammunition, and no infrastructure.
3) The UN *ordered* D'Allaire not to interfere with the murdering, and told him that if he took his troops out of their compound, they (the UN) would refuse ammunition, supplies, support, gas, and let his troops be surrounded in the field and cut to pieces. And that he would be court- martialled if he disobeyed orders.
D'Allaire saw the situation building up, and reported it; D'Allaire reported the beginning of the killings. D'Allaire pleaded to be allowed to do something. D'Allaire pleaded for ammunition, support, anything.
And he got nothing. Except, of course, a nervous breakdown afterwards.
Which is more than the pussyfooting fuckers who *refused* to intervene when they *knew* what was happening ever suffered.
