Rwanda Genocide

Today in our world, we are worried about many different things that are going on in our country. Swine Flu hit Mexico not too long ago, and is now spreading across America. What we do not think about is what else is going on in other countries that we may be able to help out on? To save at least one more life? In Rwanda, many different countries are in debate whether or not there is a genocide occurring or not. It started once a plane was shot down, carrying two important people who were from different types of ethnic groups in Rwanda. Once it occurred, the Hutus attacked Tutsis believing they were the ones responsible for attacking the President's plane. About 800,000 were killed in a 100 days alone. This type of situation seems like something that could have been prevented if another country had intervened. Unfortunately, Rwanda is not the only country who is having a genocide without other countries noticing because of their leaders covering it up. A foundation for Rwanda is set up so people can donate money to them to send people to school for an education, such as the orphans whose parents were killed during the attack of the Hutus. http://foundationrwanda.org/ Maybe if this foundation can raise enough money, some of these people can still have a future that does not involve someone killing another.
