The militia enjoyed the backing of the Hutu-led government leading up to and during the Rwandan Genocide. Since the genocide, they have been driven out of Rwanda, mainly to Zaire (present day Democratic Republic of the Congo). They are predominantly considered a terrorist organization by most western governments, as well as several countries in Africa (including Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and several others). ==Origin of the name== The name ''Interahamwe'' can be translated as "Those who work together" or "Those who fight together". ''Interahamwe'' can be broken up this way: ''Intera'' is derived from the verb ''gutera'', meaning "to work". The ''hamwe'' means "together" and is related to the word ''rimwe'' for "one". "Work" was used as slang on racist radio broadcasts during the genocide - "working" meant using the machete or killing. English speakers usually pronounce it as , though it is pronounced (:inheɾahamwe) in Kinyarwanda. However, when speaking English, Rwandans will sometimes pronounce it in the English manner. The difference can be observed by listening to Paul Rusesabagina in the ''Return to Rwanda'' feature of a ''Hotel Rwanda'' DVD, and to the translator for a survivor of the Nyarubuye massacre in ''"Frontline" Ghosts of Rwanda''. In ''Hotel Rwanda'', the name is consistently erroneously spelled and pronounced as "Interhamwe". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「interahamwe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
