How ironic is it that Monique knew most of the people that attacked them? My Parents Bedroom

The fact that Monique knows the members in the mob is ironic because these people have come to kill her mother..... they are family and friends. She doesn't understand the mob mentality, the desire of the mob to kill her mother and her mother's family, and even those hiding in the attic because they are Tutsis.... because the Hutus want them dead.
