Journeys Into Genocide

The mind is the most powerful weapon of all, able to create reasons that justify the mass murder of unarmed people. Group of people can work themselves into such a frenzy, they will believe the extermination of others to actually be necessary.

Human greed knows no bounds. In the name of exploration, countless lives have been taken with the mindset of superiority. What we may have thought was assimilation was, in reality, mass slaughter.

Nationalism can be a giant driving force in war. The immense pride a nation can feel as they build their 'new world' can be so powerful, it removes the remorse of genocidal atrocity.

Genocide is not easily forgotten. Ethnic hatred can simmer for decades, easily resurfacing under tyrannical leadership. The 'eye for an eye' mentality is blinding when it comes to the extermination of innocent people.
