The Americans are currently positioned against Iran, North Korea, and China. What can it do for another Rwanda - both politically and geographically.

Then a light brigade or division that you term as speedbumps would be enough for this kind of thing.

For those of you who states that Rwanda was not a US responsibility - BULLCRAP! It is EVERYBODY'S responsibility. No one can nor SHOULD standby while babies are litterally being butchered.

True some countries wanted to contribute but lacked the necessary lift. One of the two things happened: 1) They could have asked USA but didn't because they refused to submit to US command 2) US refused to submit to another country's command thereby denying the necessary lift.
