Ahhh yes, I see, because they’re still in the process of committing it. We can’t actually say they’ve committed genocide until they’re done (when it’s too late to do anything about it).

The standard foreign affairs 4 step program to deal with atrocities:

Step 1: there is no genocide

Step 2: there might be a genocide but were should not be doing anything

Step 3: okay, there is a genocide but there is nothing we can do

Step 4: there was a genocide but it's too late now to do anything
