I would agree that the Rwanda killings of 1994 constituted genocide. I'm not too familiar with the other two contested ones, though. [[User:DanH|DanH]] 19:58, 11 December 2007 (EST)

==Bosnia, Rwanda, and Cambodia==

These events are unquestionably genocide, and I'm unclear as to why they were removed.  [http://www.nytimes.com/2007/02/27/world/europe/27hague.html Here] is a link which demonstrates that the International Court of Justice has officially declared the massacre of Bosnian Muslims in Srebrenica in 1995 as genocide.  +

The Khmer Rouge murdered between 1.5 and 2 million people in the Killing Fields of Cambodia in an effort to purify the Khmer race.  The Cambodian government now maintains a museum which serves partially as a remembrance to the dead, called the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum.

In Rwanda, over 800,000 Tutsis were killed over a 3 month period by the dominant Hutu government.  [http://www.hrw.org/reports/1999/rwanda/ This] site gives a complete analysis of events from start to finish.  There's also an excellent book called "Left to Tell" by Immaculee Illibagiza who describes how she survived the genocide partially by hiding in a bathroom with 6 other women for weeks.  I'm putting these three back on the page with these links as references.  [[User:SSchultz|SSchultz]] 20:34, 11 December 2007 (EST)
