Remember Darfur ?


Good, because almost nobody else does.
There are no links in this article because even Google can't find a current report on the degenerating situation in Darfur.
The New Yorker for November 28 has a good piece, but its not available online.
The janjaweed militia continue their campaign of rape, murder and destruction in alliance with the Sudanese government which continues to brand such allegations "ridiculous".
The peace talks are stalled and/or irrelevant and the African Union peace keeping effort is visibly failing.
The image above is almost the sole picture of a janjaweed fighter, other than the drawings by children recalling the janjaweed attack that cost them their homes and families.
When George Bush read the accounts of the Rwanda genocide he annotated the report by hand: "Not on my watch". Maybe he is planning something dramatic.
How many deaths will it take 'til we know ?
