GENOCIDE IN SUDAN
"Darfur is a region about the size of France located in Western Sudan. A little over half of the six million people who live there are black Africans while the rest are Arab. It is a region that has faced severe underdevelopment and neglect from the central government.
In early 2003, two loosely allied rebel groups began a rebellion in Darfur, Sudan calling for the redress of social and economic grievances and demanding greater political power. Sudanese authorities saw the rebellion as a threat to the viability of the entire country, fearing other neglected regions would similarly rise up and demand larger degrees of autonomy. Thus, the government decided to respond by carrying out a deliberate policy of extermination against the African tribal peoples of Darfur, Sudan from which the rebels are drawn."
"A large Arab militia known as the Janjaweed has been the main group employed by the government to implement this policy of genocide in Sudan."
This has been going on for a very long time and not ONE person in the media has covered this besides C-Span and Bill Maher...Fox News and the Bush Administration said "They want to rid the world of terrorism" Ok, if so, why isnt there troops in sudan fighting the terrorists? Now alot of my republican chat buddies tell me that its because the troops are limited but they wouldnt be if we would of stayed out of iraq, and left iraq...Now I can tell you why I believe we wont go to sudan and stop it...One reason is the diamond mining in that area of africa..which is mined by little children..and that they are african people, we seem to do nothing when them people suffer when we claim we want to rid the world of terrorism....I am not just blaming the Bush administration, the UN hasnt done anything and they should be held accountable for the genocide there, which has been going on for about 10 years....Even clinton didnt go there and in fact he bombed an somolian asprin factory...Can anyone explain to me why these people have to suffer under the same terrorism that the USA, UK, and the middle east have to go threw without a mention of it in the mainstreamed media??
