Why did jallianwala bagh massacre happen?

Because they were protesting against British rule. General Dyer wanted to teach them a lesson and punish them for speaking out. The crowd included women and children and everyone present (except the soldiers) were unarmed which proved that they were protesting peacefully and weren't intending to be violent.

Why did the Tibetan people compare the treatment of their people by the Chinese government to the Nazis and the Holocaust?

It has become fashionable for any group that is persecuted to compare itself to the victims of the Holocaust - and the Tibetans have been treated badly by the Chinese government.

What consequences if any did the perpetrators of the Rwandan genocide suffer as a result of their actions?

Many of the perpetrators of the Rwandan Genocide were tried and received life sentences. Unfortunately, many of those who participated in the genocide ran away to other countries, or went out in the bush, where pursuit is almost impossible. Part of the sadness is that the conflict is tribal, and resentments are deep. The possibility for a repeat threat still exists.

What was the Falador massacre?

The Falador Massacre occurred on June 6, 2006, when a player got 99 Construction and decided to have a party. When he kicked everyone from his house, he found he had the ability to PK players everywhere, without them being able to attack back. He was able to PK many expensive items, such as party hats. He has since been banned. You can find videos of it on youtube.com.

This is a good explanation, but I can also explain it because I happen to have been there, so I can tell you from experience.

I was standing around in Falador when all of a sudden my computer started to lag up. Because I had a MAC OS X, It quickly recovered, and I found, to my horror, people attacking each other, one user I can remember doing the most damage was called Durial321. What scared me the most was I had some pretty expensive items on me, and I wasn't in a PVP world. And yet here this random person, which I had never seen him before, was going around killing people, and the other people couldn't attack back.

A little side scene here

---I found that the cause of the glitch was a player having a house party shortly after gaining 99 Construction, which at the time, was a very new skill, and they had been the first person to achieve this. He had a massive house party...TOO massive, and it caused a lot of lag for him. Eventually, he had to boot everyone there, and they all ended up in Falador. BUT! The people who were inside of the Combat Ring inside of the house had a very unfair ability: they were able to attack anyone in the world, but the other person couldn't retaliate back. The only people who were able to attack was those who were inside of the Combat Ring when the user expelled everyone (it was also thought that people in the dungeons (not to be mistaken with the skill dungeoneering, but the Dungeon inside of the players house.) were also able to attack, but this was unconfirmed) OK, back to the story---

There was a large group of Player moderators who gathered in Falador, trying to calm everyone (Durial321 was in edgeville at the time, which I didn't know) i ran away, wanting to log out but curious to know what else happened. I found a long line of people, following someone and chanting "kill them!". I followed the line... and found myself face to face with this Durial321 person. He obviously noticed my armor, and I found myself in an unforgiving wave of Ice Barrages. I had my Anti-Mage prayer on, and I tried to run away. Several people were following me, mocking me and saying "you're going to die noob!" (i found this offending, due to the fact that I was about 5 levels higher than him, and yet I wasn't able to do anything about it.) I managed to buy some time by using Redemption, and I was healed, but then I was out of Prayer Points. Then, a MOD PMed me saying "Where are you? Do you know where Durial321 is?" (I was wondering how this MOD knew me, but then I remembered I was recommended to be a MOD, but I turned it down, saying that I wasn't ready for such a responsibility) I told him "south of edgeville, I'm under attack by him" I was close to dying, but then a J-mod showed up, and banned him.

The aftermath of this glitch was horrorfying, with many players killed unfairly and items that Jagex were not able to replace. Though this glitch has been patched and anyone abusing it banned, this casted a sad and upset shadow over the Runescape community... and was then on known as the Falador Massacre.

That is my story.

When did Russian Duma recognize the Armenian genocide?

Russian Duma recgonized the Armenian Genocide on April 14, 1995

Why haven't all countries recognized the Armenian Genocide?

The Turkish Government currently espouses the view that while there may have been some indiscretions, it does not rise to the level of genocide. However, this view runs contrary to nearly all established scholarship outside of Turkey. Additionally, Turkey compels many world governments to not to accept the term "genocide" using its critical location and foreign policy as weapons against taking this view.

It is this Turkish requirement for other governments not recognize the genocide in order to maintain good relations with it that makes many governments, including the US federal government, hesitant to recognize the genocide.

What are three attempted genocides to wipe out Jews?

1) Crusades: As we remember the crusades we see an image of Kings purging Muslims. However a lot of purging was done on Jewish turf. From various Jewish towns being pillaged for food or money (particularily in north Israel) or cultures in Antioch or Jeruseleam it is shown through these genocidal actions how the Jews were viewed as a curse needed to be cleansed as it had an alien attitude in comparrison to Christianity.

2) Germany Black Death: The plague was a disaster on biblical proportion. Over half of Europe was brutally cut down and in such times there needed to be a seemingly sound explanation. For a lot of central European countries the obvious place to turn would be the Jews poisoning the wells on behalf of there close mysterious society being seen as strange and fearfully different. This resulted in purges of genocidal intention throughout 14 century to 17 century as the majority of the population wanted to punish them for doing such deed(of cause they didn't it was pestisites)

3) doesn't need explaining. Holocaust

Who was involved in the Ukrainian genocide?

because it did 1932-1933: Joseph Stalin tried to modernize Ukraine so he eliminated all the farms, forcing people to find another food source. He eliminated people who went against his authority and anyone who rebeled by sending them away where they were most-likely shot in the back of the head (the normal and sick routine) after they were no longer useful and they were killed.

What is someone called if they kill a race?

Well, killing a race, religion, or group is considered genocide, so the person who coordinates this is called a genocidal.

Is genocide a type of ethnic cleansing?

They are the same thing; ethnic cleansing is simply a "nicer phrasing" of genocide. Genocide and ethnic cleansing are about the intentional killing or removal of a particular racial, religious, or ethnic group.

Why do some Whites believe that the White race is currently subject to a genocide?

While their perception is incorrect (there is no genocide of Whites), the reason that they have it is the rapid increase in population of Non-White People, especially in the Third World and in the First World via immigration. However, decreasing as a percentage of local population is not a genocide.

A genocide requires the proof of two distinct claims. The first one is that there must be a significant amount of unnatural deaths of a certain ethnic group or groups which are causally linked to a different ethnic group or governmental power. The second is that these unnatural deaths must be carried out in a systematic way as to insure the elimination or vast reduction in size of the "undesirable" ethnicity.

As there are no significant amount of unnatural White deaths, it is impossible to prove either part. If Whites became more fertile, relatively speaking, the White population would rise more in-line with other racial groups. This lack of fertility in the White population has to do with older ages for marriage and fewer children being born in White families. As a result, it is completely within Whites' power to change their birthrates.
