Who's Responsible


I believe that the Hutus, the Tutsis, Belgium, the U.S. government, and the U.N. are to blame for the Rwandan Genocide.  Belgium is responsible for giving the Tutsi minority special privileges, which further increased the hatred from the Hutus.  The Tutsis are responsible for using the special privileges, also adding to Hutu hatred.  The U.N is responsible for failing to prevent the genocide when they had information about what was going to happen but refusing to act.  The Hutus are responsible for resorting to violence in response to the discrimination.  The U.N. and U.S. are then responsible for refusing to act in order to end the genocide, despite having plenty of resources that they could have used.
