Question

which political belief is shared by countries that practice genocide?
perpetrators of ghastly crimes should remain free.
peacekeeping missions threaten governmental control.
the government must be respected.
those who are different are enemies.

Explanation:

Genocide is the deliberate destruction of a group based on identity. A core ideological driver behind such acts is the dehumanization of groups perceived as different, framing them as enemies to justify violence against them. The other options do not represent a consistent, defining political belief linked to genocide: protecting perpetrators is a consequence, not a foundational belief; opposition to peacekeeping is a situational reaction, not a core driver; and respect for government is a broad idea not tied to genocide specifically.

Answer:

D. Those who are different are enemies.
