1. The UN officials received warnings about the genocide three months before the genocide
2. Other warning signs of the genocide was things that people said on the radio, hate propaganda was spread through newspapers and schools, and people made "death lists" that had names and addresses of Tutsi's that were to be killed.
3. The state-sponsored propaganda presented the Tutsi group as evil and manipulative people, they were cockroaches, and snakes.
4. What prevented the international community from calling the violence in Rwanda "genocide" was because they would of been legally bound to do something about it. If they would have then they would of intervened and probably stopped the genocide.
5. When the international community withdrew its troops, the militia decided to intensify the genocide and target officials who opposed the genocide.
6. President Clinton says that the whole international community needs to share repsonsibility for the genocide. We all need to come together and take responsibility.
