My grandpa is a Rwandan genocide denier. I have no idea why. We live in Wales, have no connection to Rwanda and he isn't a conspiracy kind of guy in general. He has never been to Rwanda or met a Rwandan yet in his house he has pages of documents 'proving the hoax', such as a full script for the movie Hotel Rwanda with a bunch of random letters from the words highlighted showing the secret messages' from the director. He says that Paul Kagame doesn't exist and that 'every picture of bodies 'is clearly in Burundi' and has huge printouts of aerial photographs of Burundi to prove it. Not sure what he has against Rwanda but if you bring it up to him he calls you a 'Tutsi LIAR'

The kingdom of Rwanda literally started the devision between the people. They labelled all poor non tutsi people as hutus. Why is it white people their fault that hutus and tutsi s started killing each other on masse like they can t think for themselves or something so it must be someone else his fault. This devision between hutus and tutsi s had been brewing for centuries.

Decolonization is by far the worst crime in human history. Lack of persistence in imposing western values on local population caused wars, hunger and suffering of millions of people. It is proven that former British colonies with deeply enrooted anglo-saxon culture today are prosperous countries, while countries that were left to their local cultures stay miserable.

Colonialism was terrible but it's not the answer to every question. Tribal violence was happening before European rule. A minority tribe ruled the majority tribe before the colonial period. The Europeans helped the minority tribe maintain their power. After the European's left the minority tribe could not maintain their dominance and that lead to this conflict.

Hutus and Tutsi might have been created (as separate ethnicities) by the European powers. It wasn t really an ethnic division in the first place more so a class division. They re genetically similar and the difference in features would be that the Tutsis were taller and fairer in complexion due to nutrition and less work in the fields as the upper class.

And not forgetting, the Rwandan Genocide directly led to both the 1st and 2nd Congo Wars of 1997 and 1998 to 2003 respectively. Which resulted in the deaths of close to 5 million civilians, making the Congo Wars the deadliest conflict since World War II.

It s crazy and sad how a relatively short span of time when Rwanda was colonized led to one of the worst atrocities in history.
Especially saddening knowing that likely nothing would have happened had these groups not been divided by their colonizers

Colonial powers made a division among caste and religion. That division is still present. Their motto of divide and conquer planted many hatred and fights among groups leading to many terrible things. They were really selfish. Hate those beings.

That happens when you believe yourself physically, mentally and morally superior to the rest of the people because of the differences between them. You should also talk about the native genocide carried out by the Spanish.

This would have ended very differently if not for the Blackhawk Down incident, which caused the US to be very apprehensible about deploying soldiers in Africa. Understandable, but even more so unfortunate.

I think you did the right thing to turn down the real harshness of this genocide. I have read many books about Rwandan genocide and it's felt like a terrible nightmare to me.

As always, Africa was a perfect utopia of rainbows and butterflies before Europeans arrived. There were no problems, rivalries, or conflict before Europeans arrived.

Racism.
Whats that?
Not enough white people involved to call it racism?
Be good to one another or fock off.

This show is almost wholly false. For starters, tutsi isn't even an ethnic distinction, it referred to the rich (usually ownership of ten cows or more.
