From what i understand its not uncommon for PEacekeepers to allow the subject populations to be masacred . . . why should the Frnech be punished for it?
They were more involved than that. France was selling arms to the Rwandan army at the time of the genocide, and they were able to exercise enormous influence over the government. While they may not be charged with being complicitly involved with the genocide, they absolutely were.
