Question: What could be the underlying reason/s for these people to do such act?
Incidents of genocide are not unique to the modern era; however, ideas of unity
have led to humans’ wish to continually improve their societies. If a certain group
is seen as standing between the population and this goal, it can be seen as
“rational” and legitimate to rid oneself of that group. The chances of genocide
occurring against an out-group that is perceived as standing between society and
utopia is more likely during times of hardship, such as those of war and economic
crises. Humans feel the need to blame an out-group and eliminate that threat to
society. Being part of a genocidal squad may give them the desired feeling of
security during those times of instability. It is therefore imperative to monitor
situations in countries, especially those where grievances against an out-group
already exist, and to step in as soon as the country experiences changes in
welfare. Genocide is not inevitable and the international community should never
again fail to prevent it.
