all - Tutsi, Europeans and Hutu - through destruction of the last means of the Batwa's livelihood, the forest. Unlike peoples in other conflict areas, for instance Lithuania or Israel, the Batwa and other peaceful small peoples are not granted a historical right of domicile and self-determination. The Batwa are within the territory of Burundi, the only people threatened with extinction. Nobodv seems to care, nor to take any effective steps against this threat. Paradoxically the heavv decimation of the Batwa, and their complete political unimportance, leads human rights advocates all around the world to care for the suppressed Hutu rather than for the few remaining Batwa, E/CN.4/Sub.2/199О/NGO/2о page 3 9. For the foregoing reasons, the International League for the Rights and Liberation of Peoples urgently requests the Sub-Commission on Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities to undertake the following actions; (a) To contact directly the last Batwa groups in Burundi; (b) To invite Batwa representatives to the sessions of the United Nations Working Group on Indigenous Populations; (c) To lend unreservedly United Nations aid for the creation of one or more autonomous Batwa territories, which would be economically used only by them and where they could live a traditional life or a life of their choice, according to their own decisions. 
**Analysis**
The text highlights the displacement and marginalization of the Batwa people, a indigenous group, due to the destruction of their livelihood and habitat. The focus is on their rights, specifically their right to self-determination and protection from extinction. The text also touches on the lack of international attention and aid to address this issue.
