  • Has There Ever Been a Successful Genocide?

    Seems like there are always some people who manage to hide well enough or are just out of town that day.

      There were some American Indian tribes that are no more.

          Rwanda 1994
          The documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act by Archive consulting fellow William Ferroggiaro identify the elite Presidential Guard as perpetrators both of the shoot-down of the Rwandan president's plane and the targeted killings that laid the basis for the ensuing slaughter of an estimated 800,000 Rwandans from April through July 1994.

            The Hutus seemed to be going at a fair pace, 77% of all Tutsis killed in 100 days.

              Well, factually speaking there are Tutsis outside of Rwanda, and in fact neighboring Burundi was at that time and still is ruled by a Tutsi dominated dictatorship that has carried out attrocities against Hutus such as:


              Given that genocide speaks of cultural groups as well,, one I have read about previously is the extermination of the Cathars, or Albigensians

                Woeful wording on my part, though actually your facts on Burundi are out of date. A Hutu political party was elected to power almost two years ago

                  At any rate, Rwanda is on the skids.

                        Is it a genocide if a group disappears due to intermarriage with an invading group?

                        What if the invading group kills the adult men but takes the women and the kids?

                        I think it is only genocide if group A says lets kill every single member of group B, but maybe my definition is wrong.

                              not really, they just got pushed west. in any case many were left in england and were eventually just bred out.
