Here are my notes for a project about the rwandin genocide...
-Over 800,000 people were murderd... because they were Tutsie -They didn't got little to no help from the USA and other countrys. -The mass genocide started when the Hutti extreemest leaders killed the prime minister. -On April 8th the president of American (Bill Clinton) orderd the evacuation of all 257 US citizens in Rwanda, only one stayed. -The Belgium soldiers pulled out of Rwanda after ten Belgium soldiers were killed, the other countrys followed soon after. -Extreemest Hutti leaders told the Huttos the Tutsies rebels were foreign invaiders bent on turning them into slaves. -An extreemist hate radio station told the Huttis to kill there Tutsie neighbors. -The red cross did not leave Rwanda they saved 65,00 lives -100,000 Rwandans had been murderd within the first two weeks. Children, pregnant women the Hutto had no mercy. -Only 10% of the peace forse was allowed to stay in Rwanda. - Ended on 1914 July lasted 100 days because Tutsie rebles won the civil war.
