Genocide? This is in fact what genocide looks like:

95. I jumped the gun, but not a shark, exactly:

British protest during the Boer War about the utilization of controversial concentration camps:
"Emily Hobhouse in June 1901 published a fifteen-page pamphlet reporting on the horrific state of the camps, and Lloyd George openly accused the government of "a policy of extermination" directed against the Boer population." (Compliments to Wikipedia)

I supplanted "genocide" for "a policy of extermination", gratuitously I suppose. Thanks for declaiming my bad, and apologies to Mr. Lemkin for misappropriating his word. It is, however, not so passing strange, I think, when you consider the tendency of some abused persons becoming, themselves, abusers. A variety of Stockholm syndrome on a grand scale, perhaps. But to be certain, after the Boer war, many Boers, for generations, would take sides with any enemy of the British Empire. Such is life in the atrocity business.
