BBC asks 'What really happened in Rwanda?' | Ann Garrison
Alan Stam: If a million people died in Rwanda, in 1994, and that’s
certainly possible, there’s no way that the majority of them could be
Tutsi.
BBC: How do you know that?
Stam: Because there weren’t enough Tutsi in the country.
BBC: The academics calculated there had been 500,000 Tutsis before the
conflict in Rwanda. Three hundred thousand survived. This led them to
their final, controversial conclusion.
Stam: If a million Rwandans died, and 200,000 of them were Tutsi, that means 800,000 of them were Hutu.
BBC: That’s completely the opposite of what the world believes happened in the Rwandan Genocide.
Stam: What the world believes and what actually happened are quite different.
