Shake Hands with the Devil: The Failure of Humanity in RwandaFor the first time in the United States comes the tragic and profoundly important story of the legendary Canadian general who "watched as the devil took control of paradise on earth and fed on the blood of the people we were supposed to protect." When Romeo Dallaire was called on to serve as force commander of the UN Assistance Mission for Rwanda, he believed that his assignment was to help two warring parties achieve the peace they both wanted.
For the first time in the United States comes the tragic and profoundly important story of the legendary Canadian general who "watched as the devil took control of paradise on earth and fed on the blood of the people we were supposed to protect." When Romeo Dallaire was called on to serve as force commander of the UN Assistance Mission for Rwanda, he believed that his assignment was to help two warring parties achieve the peace they both wanted. Instead, he was exposed to the most barbarous and chaotic display of civil war and genocide in the past decade, observing in just one hundred days the killings of more than eight hundred thousand Rwandans. With only a few troops, his own ingenuity and courage to direct his efforts, Dallaire rescued thousands, but his call for more support from the world body fell on deaf ears. In Shake Hands with the Devil, General Dallaire recreates the awful history the world community chose to ignore. He also chronicles his own progression from confident Cold Warrior to devastated UN commander, and finally to retired general struggling painfully, and publicly, to overcome posttraumatic stress disorder -- the highest-ranking officer ever to share such experiences with readers.Binding Type: Paperback

Terrible product
Style: dog ball launcher
Terrible design. With most dog ball launchers, swinging your arm like you're throwing a baseball results in a long arching trajectory of the ball, just as expected. The same arm motion with this launcher results in the ball flying straight up. To get the ball to even move forward requires an un-natural forward snap of the wrist, and even then it doesn't travel far.
Hasn't anyone tried this out before hitting the market?

Great product
Style: dog ball launcher
Very easy to use, assemble and disassemble. Saves my arm a lot. Unfortunately once my dog runs to the ball she gets side tracked and I have to fetch it. 🫤 I highly recommend this product.

Mid at best
Style: dog ball launcher
It’s mid at best. Requires a little trick to get it to go forward and not just fly up in the air., it’s also not telescoping. It just comes apart into two pieces.
