The people in the pictures above are the Hutu, the Interahamwe, and the Impuzamugambi.
Other perpetrators
Other perpetrators that carried out things during the genocide were two Hutu radical militant groups:the Interahamwe and the Impuzamugambi. They were armed, backed, and led by the government of Rwanda. The Interahamwe are remembered today as the driving force of the genocide, comprised mostly of young Hutu men, brainwashed by the "Hutu Power" ideology. Springing from a separate political entity, the CDR (Coalition for the Defence of the Republic), the Impuzamugambi were made up of members of the CDR's young wing.
Here are some Hutu people with machetes ready to fight.
Their goals
The Hutu's goals were to get revenge on the Tutsi for shooting down the President of Rwanda who was a Hutu.
