CHRISTIANE AMANPOUR, CNN CHIEF INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: After the slaughter, when the balance of power changed in Rwanda and the so-called "bad guys," the people who conducted the slaughter were now being chased out. and they all came through to Zaire, next door. And in some kind of biblical retribution, they started to drop like flies. Cholera had taken hold. There was one lake where people were doing all their toileting and drinking and people were literally dying, as they walked. It was revolving, frankly. And every morning we would wake up and about 20 yard away from us would be a stack of more dead bodies who had died over night. And I remember that the world didn't have enough resources to deal with it. And they started to send troops and sanitation equipment. And I remember these French foreign legionnaires, some of the toughest soldiers in the world, crying because their job was to get a bulldozer and pick up these bodies and toss them into holes in the ground that they had dug. And even they couldn't tolerate it. It was truly, truly awful. I remember writing in my diary that this is the blackest I've ever felt.
