In many countries and many periods a person’s ethnic identity has had profound consequences for this or her physical safety status, and economic prospects. Violent confrontation along ethnic lines is the most apparent form of ethnic conflict, and it recently has claimed lives in such diverse places throughout the world. The three most terrible ethnic conflicts have been the conflict in Rwanda, the Arab-Israeli crisis, and the Holocaust during World War II.
One important ethnic conflict was the Hutu and the Tutsi conflict in Rwanda. There are two major ethnic groups in this African country: the Hutu and the Tutsi. When the country was colonized by the Belgians in 1916 they claimed that the Tutsi were superior to the Hutu based on the idea that their skin were lighter and their features more European. As a result, The Hutus suffered years of repression by the Tutsi. In 1994, the Hutus took revenge. Tutsi people were slaughtered, hunted out of their homes, killed with guns or machetes and left to die on the road by unofficial militia group called the Interahamwe (“those who attack together”) and Hutu civilians were forced to murder their neighbors and children were not spared in an insane effort to wipe out the next Tutsi generation. Over 800,000 Rwandans were in the space of 100 days.
In addiction the Arab- Israeli conflict is one between the state of Israel and its Arab neighbors, particularly the Palestinians. For centuries Jewish lived into several countries, especially in Europe in what is know as Diaspara. This conflict was caused by conflicts such a territory religion, and political ideas. Nowadays Israel has peace deals with Egypt and Jordan.
Finally Germans believed that they were superiors that Jewish, Some scholars maintain that the definition of the Holocaust should also include the Nazis systematic murder of millions of people in other groups, including ethnic Poles, Romani and other political and religious opponents. Legalization to remove the Jews from civil society was enacted years before the outbreak of World War II.
Ethnic conflicts such as in Rwanda, the Arab-Israeli crisis, and The Holocaust during World War II triggered the worst feelings a human being can have. Any country or society can go through such terrors. Different religion, race, and beliefs are not good reasons to kill each other. It depends on new generations not to repeat the terrible crimes against humanity committed in different times and places.
