    If this inquiry has no power to actually do anything about this finding, I’m not sure I understand the point.

    Anyone who ever read a history book already knows about the multiple genocides. The issue is what happens now?

      True. This is what I am also thinking ? Everybody knows the colonial powers or imperial powers did lot of atrocities, exploitation. It is there in books.

      I guess the point would be for everyone involved to say “never again” and if someone quotes Hitler they should not win elections.
