    Don…. I love your acting but as a survivor of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi ….whatever Paul Rusesabagina had you acting was a lie…. Please if you give Value to what happened with the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi get time to meet the survivors and understand the character that you played what kind of person he was during that Period…. he fooled you and the entire production team of Hotel Rwanda…. Paul Rusesbagina was the Hotel manager during the genocide by forcefully throwing out the really manager and having him arrested because he was Tutsi … he managed all that by the help of the Habyariman's soldiers who by that time was the president and when he took over as the manager he made sure that for every Tutsi that escaped to Hotel Rwanda which is currently known as Hotel de Mille Colline they had to pay for them to be there….and much more inhumane acts that he did ….please come to Rwanda and understand what kind of person he is.
