It wasn't solved, it was reversed. When the genocide ended in Rwanda, the Hutu perpators fled into the eastern Congolese provinces of Ituri, South Kivu, and North Kivu. Then Tootsie militants followed them and now they are simply adding to the blood shed in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. To learn more go to the archives at http://africaignored.blogspot.com/
Did the European Imperialism cause the Rwandan Genocide in 1994?
Ultimately, yes. The oppression of the Rwandan people by European imperialists began a cycle of violence perpetuated by those in power. Europeans put Tutsis in charge, even though they were a minority, and Europeans and Tutsis together abused the Hutu majority (and the Twas, another minority). The angry Hutu majority (made angry by European favoritism) revolted against the Tutsis in power. To get revenge and to keep their power, the Hutus oppressed the Tutsis, just as they had been oppressed by the European imperialists' Tutsi puppets. To profit from the Rwandan people's exploitation, Europeans had long ago made a Rwandan economy based on tea and a few other goods that all began to do poorly in international markets in the 1960s. To distract people from the poor economy, the Hutu government began to use the Tutsis as scapegoats for all Rwanda's problems, going so far as to condone the murder of all Tutsis, setting the stage for subsequent events.

How many people were killed in the genocide with Palestine and Israel?
There was no genocide in Palestine. This is hyperbole.
As for the amount of Palestinians (both militants and civilians) that have been killed by Israelis (in uniform or not), the number is probably close to 16,000 individuals. However, when you realize that the total Palestinian population is 4,000,000+ people (of which 1.5 million live peacefully in Israel), it becomes clear that there is no genocide.

Why were genocides allowed to happen?
Allowed by whom is the question.
Unfortunately, there is no real system to make sure that countries act in the best interests of all of their citizens. Killing Jews and other minorities was a common safety-valve mechanism throughout history of various rulers who allowed their people to vent their frustrations by killing the minorities who were supposedly causing problems. In most cases, the people are too stupid or too enraged to realize that it is the government's inefficiences and inequalities that are causing their ills.
It was only in the modern era that the idea that a citizen of any state is endowed with Rights to which he can appeal beyond the ability of the government to endorse or retract. It is only in this period, in those countries that believe that every human is truly endowed with equal rights (as opposed to just saying that), that the killing of Jews has been prohibited.
Could a genocide happen today?
The reason that it happened in the way that it did in WW2 was because the Nazis made it happen in the way it did. It was unknown to the world at large. It was secret. Not that anyone at the time could have intervened had it been common knowledge. But the important point is that no on could communicate with anyone openly in the Nazi fortress of Europe. The Resistance movements in various countries were subject to infliltration by the Gestapo (German Secret State Police) and people sent for 'Resettlement' disappeared from the connection of the home towns & families. And it is this ability to communicate now that makes the difference: Freedom to type this on my computer is a very valuable commodity. And that you can read it also is part & parcel of freedom, it is a very valuable thing. 'Arbeit Macht Frei' it said on the gates of Dachau Concentration Camp (Work makes you Free) & it was a lie. Freedom is about being able to say that the Nazis were liars. Make sure no one ever tells you different.
