The Sudanese policeman who "stands guard with a bullwhip and a Kalashnikov" does not have a Kalashnikov. He in fact has a M14 (US design).
FWIW

and what do you mean, "they should sund a bunch of american soldiers" and "help them and to forgive them of all their sins"? US soldiers would just complicate the situation more. it is an oil-rich region and that would soon become the main objective. and how are the refugees who are being attacked the ones who are sinning? that kind of paternalism helps no one. if you want to help them, actually take action. lobby the government for aid! send them some food!!! or if you dont know how, donate to someone so they can!!

And, by the way, Iraq is not getting better. we have destroyed their infrastructure and used it as a way to get taxpayer money into cheney's pockets through no-bid contracts with haliburton. we do NOT want to get involved in the sudan. and by the way, jess bev, saying "i think sudanese people are [deleted] and hoes" is one of the most pointless, hateful, and biggoted things i have ever heard. grow up and open your eyes.

hey sam, hate to tell you this but EVERYTHING is run by money. If you don't like your money and you feel too guilty to hold on to it...I'll send you my paypal email address so you can send me some.

Why does this website charge money for a subscription...they are only there for money. why do Dems raise oodles and oodles of cash...shoot, John Kerry is sitting on a billion alone...not to mention how much money does Al and Tipper get from the carbon-kickbacks...what about kofi-annan...the oil for food sure did go away fast. I guess he paid Bush to have the war so our focus would not be on him when he got caught.

If you think that these folks..left or right are on your side...get real. It's all about the money. Look at the polution in China...the sound is deafening from the EU and UN about them cleaning it up yet good ol america...they need to sign on to Kyoto.

Quit the Double Standard folks...it's only Fair

Vote Ron Paul 2012

As I was reading I noticed two main suggestions: 1. send more troops in, and 2. send more money in. I don't think either of those suggestions would work. The situation is caused by greed. The rebels and those causing the turmoil want to have the power for themselves. Sending more money into the region will do very little in the long run, and a good portion of it will never reach the people. More troops would bring a bit more stability, however, this too would do absolutely nothing for fixing the problem. What really needs to happen is that God would change their hearts, and they would learn to love each other as God commanded us through His Son. This is the only hope for true lasting change in Darfur.

crisis of Darfur is degratin human right,dear reader strive against the war of Darfur

i like taking huge items in my butt. !!!!!

First, the world--the US, but also Europe and the rest--have to live up to their commitments to provide logistic aid to the African Union peacekeeping mission. Had all of the churches and people who proclaim themselves "pro life" spend an eigth of the energy on the living in Darfur as they do on worrying about zygotes, the politicians in the various countries would've listened, the AU force would be in far better shape, and we wouldn't have the ramped up violence. Part of the problem is also the distractibility of all of us--how many of the writers here kept Darfur on their front burner during all of the last year--I know I didn't. That's why and how genocides happen in part--the world becomes a giant ADD case, and so do we all. So let's focus--write not only your congressperson but religious leaders.
Or just sit back and slag each other.

I wish they would send a few soldiers
their for more protection as all the blankets in the world are not stopping these poor people from the tragic live they have been forced to live. My prayers are with them, I cry whenever I hear about that country.

I may have said the wrong persons comments were a disgrace the two I mean were posted by some one named sc at 7:09 and 7:10 and should be removed .

The trouble is still ongoing in Somalia as well. The ethic strife did not stop when President Clinton withdrew U.S. troops following the ambush of U.S. soldies htere. Women are raped and killed because of their ethnicity.

i bloody agree with philip the bloody thing being made up watch the news u git

chadians fleding to darfur? never heard of that before, always thought it was the other way around

bloody god are you a stupid brit go drink some tea

all I have to say is peace on earth and free Darfur

You are posting "Aryan Outfitters"?
What's the point you're trying to push-- hate?

wow I thought china was providing the weapons to fuel the war

so that in a few years they can march in there and take the oil( like america did in Iraq) since china is going to be very dependant on oil

o yeah china also has a lot invested in that area

I am just sayin

No one cares about africa. I wonder why???

An Apology to Blacks from a white South African

We apologize for giving you doctors and free medical care, as a result of which you have been able to survive plagues and catastrophes and grow in numbers;

We apologize for teaching you to read and write, and for building you thousands of schools which we have repaired after you vandalized them and burned them down, After all, if you could not read how could you have learned the words of Karl Marx, Mao Tse-tung, and others who taught you how evil we are and how oppressed you are?

We apologize for building factories and highways and buildings that gave you employment;

We apologize for developing farms that to this day feed the bulk of Africa;

We apologize for providing you with warm clothing made of fabric instead of leaving you wearing the animal skins that you wore before our arrival;

We apologize for taking minerals from the earth, which you neither used, nor wanted, nor even knew, were there;

We apologize for those among us who have established welfare organizations and have devoted their entire life towards making life richer and better for your people;

We apologize that we have built roads and railroad tracks between towns and cities which you now use every day without thinking;

We apologize for paying the lion's share of taxation while spending less on ourselves than on you;

We apologize for giving you law and order and a strong central government that prevented your own warrior nations like the Zulu and the Matabele from slaughtering black people by the hundreds of thousands as they did year in and year out before we came;

We apologize for teaching you the English language which has opened to you the entire world of European thought, culture, and commerce;

For all these sins we humbly beg forgiveness, and if you will only accept our apology we will be happy to take back all of the above evil and horrible things we have done to you and return to our European homeland.


A Warning for Americans: A Message from a South African

People used to say that South Africa was 20 years behind the rest of the Western world. Television, for example, came late to South Africa (but so did pornography and the gay rights movement).

Today, however, South Africa may be the grim model of the future Western world, for events in America reveals trends chillingly similar to those that destroyed our country.

America's structures are of "Western Culture". Your Congress, your lobbying groups, your free speech, and the way ordinary Americans either get involved or ignore politics are peculiarly your "Western Culture", not the way most of the world operates. But the fact that only about a third of Americans deem it important to vote is horrifying in light of how close you are to losing your Western character.

Writing letters to the press, manning stands at county fairs, hosting fund-raising dinners, attending rallies, setting up conferences, writing your Congressman -- that is what you know, and what you are comfortable with. Those are the political methods you've created for yourselves to keep your country on track and to ensure political accountability,with freedom and justice for all.

But woe to you if -- or more likely, when -- the rules change. Americans may soon find themselves unable or unwilling to stand up to challenge the new political methods that will be the inevitable result of the ethnic metamorphosis now taking place in America. Unable to cope with the new rules of the game -- violence, mob riots, intimidation through accusations of racism, demands for proportionality based on racial numbers, and all the other social and political weapons used by the have-nots to bludgeon treasure and power from the haves -- Americans, like others before them, will no doubt cave in. They will compromise away their independence and ultimately their way of life.

That is exactly what happened in South Africa. I know, because I was there and I saw it happen.

It is an outrage how the International Community is letting the horror of this conflict drag for so long. During the trials of Nuremberg, the Prosecutor was appalled at the lack of remorse by the Nazi officers. He asked himself if they were evil, and "What is evil?". He concluded that "Evil is the lack of empathy for the suffering of other human beings". Here lies the great tragedy of the human race. We forget that we are all related, bonded by the Universal Creator, and Mother Earth. Now is the time to raise one's consciousness, awareness, and to care for our fellow human beings by fighting the tactics of the "Kingpins" of fear and selfishness". Protest against the complicity of China which supplies the Sudanese Government with ammunition and weapons, and exerts great influence over these rogue states such as the Military Junta of Myanmar. Raise a public outcry to the European Community and the United Nations which are run by bureaucrats who do not have emotional intelligence, and therefore inefficient in the position of leaders of International Organizations. Real human intelligence is one that cares for others, feels empathy and tries to correct what is wrong. The world needs leaders that are not empty "eggshells", automatons, serving the Prince of Darkness, but instead must serve the community, the wellbeing of Nations and the wellbeing of planet Earth. The world does not need military empires, for they are vehicles by tyrants to manipulate, control, and abuse humanity. The world is sick and tired of these primitive, and barbaric leaders who only obey their own egoism such as Hitler, Stalin, Mao Tse Tung, Saddam Hussein, Suharto, and so on. They behave as if they were imortal but they are already gone and according to the Universal Law of Retributation they will have much to account for. Therefore do not tolerate abuses of any kind, but stand up fearlessly against heartless, irresponsible, selfish leaders, and bring justice to the world.

i am so appauled at some of the people posting on this.
i'm not even an adult and i can grasp more of these concepts going on in our disfunctional world than some of you
BOTTOM LINE.
what's going on in africa is no bueno.
never again?
that's what they said about the holocaust
and yet it continues to happen...?
theres been a recorded genocide basically every decade since world war two and it has to stop.
so please do what you can
speak up
because one day some one might come for you
and there will be no one to speak out for you

In years past i have not wanted to tell my story about wht happened to me when i was a young child in the congo. The things i did and the people i killed made me want to kill myself everyday. This picture gives me strength to go on. To know people still need my help in the world. I will continue to strive to improve africa

My young brother , if not peace in this life then no dought in the next with God AS KING .

The only reason for the genocide in Sudan is a lack of compassion, and the only way to solve it without causing a large scale war is to have the military regain compassion.

As the grandson of a holocaust survivor, i can nowhere near understand what they are going through because i have never been through a genocide, but i KNOW what their going through, but not UNDERSTAND it. and it is horrible, and as i said that only a regain of compassion can set this straight, America, and also other countries sending as much food as possible to refugee camps will keep on living as long as it takes.

People need to reach out to eachother more, stop picking sides, just help carry the burden of life so we may learn from its experiences. This genocide must stop, not for a reason or purpose, but just stop. Live for the dead, speak for the dead, feel for the dead, but no more death for the dead, we all die off. R.I.P.

We need to do more to help and i plan on doing so.
