John Kerry wants to prostrate the United States before Europe The United Nations France, begging forgiveness for acting without their bye.
In the meantime, Rwanda is investigating France's role in the mass murder of Tutsis and moderate Hutus ten years ago.

According to the BBC:
Rwanda has regularly accused the French of aiding and abetting the Hutu extremists who killed 800,000 people.I'm sure they did it to "Keep Rwanda Stable".Paris denies responsibility - although it has admitted supporting Rwanda's former Hutu-led government...In 1998 a French parliamentary panel cleared Paris of responsibility for the genocide.
However the MPs admitted that successive French governments had extended diplomatic and military support to Rwanda's hardline Hutu government between 1990 and 1994.
France has also been accused of allowing perpetrators of the genocide to escape when it launched a operation in south-western Rwanda in June 1994.
These are the people to whom John Kerry would grant first refusal over our foreign policy.
