Rebels to arms for Independance of Darfur. The Janwaweed Militia, supported by the Sudanese Govt. wanted to eliminate the issue of self-proclamation of Darfur. They just wanted to wipe the Darfur people, so that none remains alive to ask for liberty.

they went out to smell roses and dance on unicorns

Up to 400,000 people have died due as a result of direct attacks and conflict induced malnutrition and disease. The vast majority of these have been women, children and civilian men. More than 3 million people have been displaced and are living in IDP camps. More than 350,000 people are deprived of humanitarian support due to the threat of attack faced by aid workers. Thousands starve each month due to the Sudanese government impeding humanitarian aid efforts. A further 4 million Darfuri residents are dependant on limited international humanitarian assistance. The violence is now spilling onto neighbouring Eastern Chad.

He is solely responsible for causing the holocaust. The officers who helped him were following his orders.

It's an important part of American history.

There has been tons of research done on school violence for a few reasons: to understand it and to prevent it.

There's always that quote that circulates around---"history repeats itself"---and some people believe that students are taught history in classes so that they don't repeat the bad events (violence, wars, school violence, the Holocaust, etc.).

No, it ended in 1945.

In the late 1930's the Nazis killed thousands of handicapped Germans by lethal injection and poisonous gas. After the German invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941, mobile killing units following in the wake of the German Army began shooting massive numbers of Jews and Roma (Gypsies) in open fields and ravines on the outskirts of conquered cities and towns. Eventually the Nazis created a more secluded and organized method of killing enormous numbers of civilians -- six extermination centers were established in occupied Poland where large-scale murder by gas and body disposal by cremation were systematically conducted. Victims were deported to these centers from Western Europe and from the ghettos in Eastern Europe which the Nazis had established. In addition, millions died in the ghettos and concentration camps as a result of forced labor, starvation, exposure, brutality, disease and execution.

The Arena Massacre took place in Trinidad and Tobago on December 1st 1698.

During the war in Bosnia there were camps where Albanian men and women were separated and all of them starved. The women were raped daily by 30 soldiers. When they were too far gone in their pregnancies they were let out. A sure way to kill a society and when this became known, that they had used rapes as a weapon, it was finally declared a warcrime in the war tribunal in Haag. So in a way it have already happened because the world didn't go in. Men from a camp testified that they had managed to put a radio together and hear the president deny there was a camp there.

About 800 000 people.

I don't see that 'communciations and technology' make another holocaust more or less likely. The genocide in Rwanda in 1994 was carried mainly with the use of machettes, for example (about 800,000 Tutsis were killed in 3 months). The rest of the world didn't want to do know about it - till it was over.

Rwanda, while under Dutch control, was an established colonial state. A minority group, the "Tutsis", were given special status and privileges over the majority ethnic group, the "Hutus", by the Dutch colonial powers in exchange for collaboration. Many Tutsis abused their position and repressed the Hutus. After Rwanda gained independence, the Hutu government began a program to oppress the Tutsis, some of whom began a rebellion against the Hutus. After the moderate vice-president of Rwanda was killed by the Rebels, radical Hutus incited a massive country-wide mob to begin the ethnic cleansing of the Tutsis. This is known as the "Rwandan Genocide", which eventually prompted UN intervention, although not until the end of the genocide.

The Allies and the Underground Resistance tried to help thousands of Jews escape from occupied countries and get relocated elsewhere. The majority of the Jews relocated to the United States and Israel. Once the war was over the Jews were freed from the concentration camps and cared for. The survivors were eventually relocated. The dead ones were properly buried. The Allied Forces made the Germans bury the Jews.

The Bosnian Genocide refers to either genocide at Srebrenica and Zepa and both of those were perpetrated by Bosnian Serbs in the Army of Republika Srpska led by General Ratko Mladic.

The Holocaust was an event in which approximately 6 million Jews were killed, along with substantial numbers of other people whom the Nazis disliked (communists, homosexuals, gypsies, Jehovah's Witnesses, etc.).

The killing of about 6 million Jews.

The genocide took place in the context of the Rwandan Civil War, an ongoing conflict beginning in 1990 between the Hutu-led government and the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF), which was largely composed of Tutsi refugees whose families had fled to Uganda following earlier waves of Hutu violence against the Tutsi. Most of the dead were Tutsis and most of those who perpetrated the violence were Hutus. The genocide was sparked by the death of the Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana, a Hutu, when his plane was shot down above Kigali airport on 6 April 1994.

Juvénal Habyarimana was a dictatorial leader of the Republic of Rwanda who death in 1994 sparked the genocide. Cyprien Ntaryamira, President of Burundi also died in the plane crash.

The Japanese and Chinese were involved in the Nanking Massacre of 1937. The imperial Japanese army murdered and raped Chinese civilians and unarmed combatants.

One needs to distinguish between perpetrators and victims.

The United States did not directly respond. this was in l9l5 when World War I ( then styled the European War) was in progress. US was not in the fight until l9l7, and public opinion was mostly anti-war. Therefore the Armenian massacre received little media ( at the time almost entirely newspaper) attention, events in European War such as various battles land, and sea, yes, but Armenia was a backwater compared to say, the Somme or Vimy or the French theatre of operations in general.

The infamous St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre was held in August 24, 1572 in France. The glorious Reformation, begun in Germany on October 31, 1517 and had spread to France over 400 years ago and began one of the most horrifying holocausts in history. The descendants of the survivors that reached America were determined that this tragedy should not occur here. They gave us the First and Second Amendments to the Constitution. They knew that freedom of religion and an armed citizenry go hand in hand.

Genocides are one of the most difficult things to prevent. By the time the outside world knows about one, it has gone for weeks, months or years. More than six decades after the Holocaust, the horrors of Bosnia, Rwanda, and Darfur are sobering reminders that preventing future genocides and mass atrocities remains an enormous challenge. Some persons think that genocide is not the inevitable result of ancient hatreds or irrational leaders. Perpetrators of genocide and mass atrocities cannot succeed without the support of other governments and corporations; so preventing mass atrocities requires political will.
