Shaming the Shameless?

Another from the recent past:

I just saw "Shake Hands With the Devil" (I have a new hero) - a movie I whole-heartedly recommend, though it's not much fun and is incredibly intense.

At one point, General Dallaire says that he failed Rwanda because he failed to shame the world into action.

I have to say this: you can't shame the world, Roméo - the world is shameless. Just look around.


Addendum: I've just finished reading his book (same name as the film). I recommend it as whole-heartedly.
