what amounts to Genocide?

The other day, someone e-mailed me a petition, to request the Vatican for an appology for the use of poisonous gas by Fascist Italy on Ethiopians during the period 1935-1941. My understanding is that an action amounts to Genocide if atrocities are done to members of a group just because they are members of that group. So i think one needs to see the factual details of what has happened free of any sentiments before making any assertions. Any how Check out the following links and feel free to say what you think.

  1. They did what they did because your ancestors were a Negro. If you don't consider yourself part of the Negro group, then you have a reason to doubt the Italians committed a genocide.
