"So you have the Church involved...."

Yes, the Rwandan Church -- one tribal fraction against another -- was involved in the death, but not the pope at the time. John Paul II spoke out very forcefully against the slaughter, hoping to galvanize the West to intervene. However, Washington (under the Clinton Administration) and other Western governments not only failed to speak out more forcefully during the slaughter, but also failed to support the tiny force of UN peacekeepers in Rwanda at the time who were attempting to save some of the besieged people. Indeed, US Intelligence reports today show that the Clinton cabinet and Clinton himself were told that the Hutu militants "planned a final solution to eliminate" all Tutsis long before the genocide peeked. But Washington and other super powers did nothing. That Catholic Hutu parishioners were killing Catholic Tutsi parishioners is one of the tragedies the Rwandan Church has to live with (as US northerners and southerners had to in 1865).
