Unfortunately, genocide has not been eradicated. The Persecution of Yazidis by ISIL is the most recently recognized genocide. It is occurring in 2015 in Iraq. The Persecution of Yazidis by ISIL refers to the genocidal persecution of the Yazidi people of Iraq, leading to their exile, the abduction of Yazidi women, and massacres of at least 5,000 Yazidi civilians,[5]during what has been called a "forced conversion campaign" being carried out in Northern Iraq by the militant organization the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or ISIS).
why wouldn't it be a CRIME? YOU ARE hurting a person and of course that officially brings you to jail or in serious danger.

The Article 2 of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide.
Genocide is defined as the systematic destruction of a certain group of people. What happened in Tibet was a genocide. In order for it to be labled as a genocide it has to reach all eight stages of a genocide. Otherwise it can be labled as ethnic cleansing or a war crime. The eighth stage of a genocide is extermination, or killing.
It was an attempt by a government to eliminate a specific set of people.
The US has signed the Convention.
No, genocide is not morally acceptable. Genocide involves the intentional and systematic extermination of a particular ethnic, racial, or religious group. It violates the fundamental principles of human rights, dignity, and equality. The international community has condemned genocide and it is considered a crime under international law.
The Rwandan genocide was not really a war, since the aim of this genocide and any genocide is to exterminate a certain group of people. In the Rwandan genocide the aim was to kill all the Tutsis. Fortunately not all the Tutsis were killed in this genocide, but hundreds of thousands were and Rwanda still has to bear the scar of what happened during that horrible time to this day, so nobody won the genocide, everybody just lost.
Yes it is.
Because genocide is a horrendous crime against humanity and everything possible should be done to prevent it from ever taking place again.
