America, Land of the...Genocidaires?

STAND, the student anti-genocide coalition, recently sent an email about the pending Genocide Accountability Act, which you can read about here. In partership with organizations like the Wiesenthal Center, the Department of Justice has zealously hunted down and expelled persons resident in the United States who were known to have been perpetrators of the Holocaust. The same has not been true for Rwanda and Bosnia. This Act aims to erase this discrepency.

I think it's an interesting issue, and I encourage you to check out the bill's proposed content and reflect on what stance the United State should take on this issue.
