Conclusion: Genocide in the Age of Obama

Abstract

Genocide continues to occur because mankind has not reconciled itself to the differences that exist among people. Differences based on race, aspects of culture, and economic development have led to the development of an international cultural, racial, and economic hierarchy. The human rights of people living in developed western countries are dually protected. Their government and the governments of other developed countries recognize their humanity. If expatriates from developed countries are mistreated abroad, they can seek relief by appealing to the diplomatic corps from their mother country; moreover, they have been extended the protection of international law. International society recognizes them as human beings worthy of its protection. The rights, privileges, and immunities embodied in the UN Charter and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights applies to them.
