Modern Genocide Review

Throughout the many posts I have read on the subject of genocides, it is evident that no matter the length of the genocide, the countries or groups of people that partake in the genocide, or the end result of it all, they all have to do with the same thing; power. Through separation among a population, groups of people have been discriminating and committing acts of violence on each other, all to determine who will have the power over that nation. Whether it be through the ruling of an iron fist, the rebelling against the government, or the constant grievances on who to put in power, genocides happen because one group of people is upset with another group of people and the logical solution to them is to discriminate against them and start an all out display of aggressive violence. Who has governmental power in a nation can lead to uproar of violence because everybody wants to have their say in who is in control. If countries do not get a hold of control on who is in power, genocides will continue to happen. The constant willingness to kill a majority of a country's population just to get your beliefs in the government, is exactly what is causing these genocides. Unfortunately, genocides do not look like they will stop any time soon, due to the power hungry savages living in these countries all over the world.          

Thank you  Cody Davey, Aydan Carver, and Grant Solis for allowing me to use your posts to reflect on modern genocides and gather information on them.
