NYT: Jury Still Out on Rwandan Genocide

I was reading an article in the Business Section of this morning's New York Times about HBO's decision to let public television broadcast 3 of its new films after they have aired on HBO for a month.  One of the films entitled 'Sometimes in April' is a film about the Rwandan Genocide.  As I read the article I came across this wonderful formulation that was used to describe what occurred in Rwanda:  '...the 1994 incidents of genocidal atrocities in Rwanda.'  Almost 11 years later, and the New York Times still refuses to call it genocide.  Instead, it resorts to the legalese that was employed by the State Department and others to avoid calling it Genocide, which would have required intervention.  So instead we would get, 'acts of genocide' or 'incidents of genocide'.  And as, I believe, a reporter asked at the time, how many acts of genocide are needed before we can call something genocide.  Indeed.  Apparently 800,000 still doesn't do it for the New York Times.
