| Rwandas role in globalized market is being a huge neocolonial banana and coffee plantation. Ethnic conflicts makes exploitation of workers and corruption of elites there easier.
| And the things you describe isn't exlusive to rwanda. Just have a look to the the israel-palestine conflict:
A fascist ethno-nationalist government is commiting genocide, justifying it with genocide that happened to their people.
It's even more absurd there: Most actual ancestors of holocaust vicims rather oppose this government, while their members mostly aren't even related to holocaust victims. And it wasn't palestinansians who commited the holocaust.
| Even more absurd:
Most victims of the terrorist attacks by hamas were liberal jews, opposing netanjahus fascist regime. Ideologically the hamas and zionists are pretty close. They are both anti-liberal and anti-socialist and highly reactionist. The hamas fought and eliminated all palestinian oppositon that share similiar views and values to progressive jews.

Wow! I wish the liberals could team up and genocide conservative Jew and Muslim instead! Like captain America and the hulk when the hulk throws him through walls because his shield is invincible.
And I said as I was reading it ‘this sounds like Hutu and Tutsi! I didn’t know they did all the germicide denial laws stuff tho, just the flip flopping oppression

I think all sides agreed, it's no genocide if it's only about destroying a group that is entirely defined by their political alignment. It's even not necessary to murder them.
I suggest to give all Hamas members and all members of the current israeli government the choice to give up their stupid views. Everyone who doesn't will be put in an Arena where they can fight each other to dead themselves. This way people who don't share their idiocy don't have to suffer from it.
| OP was implying the holocaust was exploited by jews for political purposes which kept them in power for decades
| Jews are friends of America
Much better than the other "allies" who can't even defend themselves from a third world army

Shit happens, get over it, we have bigger problems: France is a fifth column in NATO, Germans run their economy like Speer never left, Italy is actively joining the Chinese Co-prosperity Sphere, etc.

Not by Jews in general, but by jews with a zionist agenda. Not every jew was or is a zionist. Sadly most jews that were murdered by the Nazis weren't zionists. They were well integrated, mostly secular citizens. Beside the outdated monarchism and stupid prussian militarism the young nation of germany was very liberal.
However its understandable that the holocaust popularized Zionism back then.
And the founding of Israel once had anti-colonialist motives, too.
| However there was always a reactionist core to the zionist ideology, which is nothing else than a jewish ethnostate, which location and borders are defined by ancient religious texts.
During cold war Israel slowly shifted from a (very reserved) soviet friendly to an extreme US friendly policy. Stalin was a antisemitic douchebag and there were more influential and wealthy jews in the US. The soviets counted on the arabs - which was a big mistake on the long term.

>France is a fifth column in NATO
No, the french just understand, that the NATO is an Alliance that serves US-imperialism instead french imperialism. What the french don't understand is, that they're no serious empire anymore :-)
>Germans run their economy like Speer never left
Could you explain what you mean by this?
>Italy is actively joining the Chinese Co-prosperity Sphere, etc.
They're not joining, they're simply bought, pushed by EUs neoliberal austerity politics.
