How can society help prevent another genocide?

Whilst short-term humanitarian and medical help are great I'm wondering if there're any longer term ideas.

What sociology-political conditions or philosophical approaches are needed to minimise the threat of future ideaological terrorism? What kind of education is needed? Is economic prosperity vital? Can democracy be developed quickly or does it need to develop naturally? How do you break down differences that separate communities and lead to fear, jealousy and violence?

What are your ideas on this?

It's been ages since I posted on here and I haven't had any great insights or easy answers.

However, I've just this evening read a seemingly well-researched article that explains much about ISIS. It's answered so many questions that I've been mulling over since the summer. His analysis seems both insightful and objective.

Be warned though - this article is very long!

What ISIS really wants

What do you think?
