Biden desperately trying to establish himself as relevant. Has he dropped out of the presidential race yet?

I thought that Sudan had a civil war. Don't the Dems say that it is impossible to win when getting involved in a civil war?

We need the troops to protect us against the invasion of this country. Biden appears to have no problem with the large numbers of people in the US already killed by illegal aliens.

The Sudan will have to be dealt with militarily sooner or later, but its laughable that someone like Biden is calling for this. The Dems are so ignorant that they picture this as a “humanitarian crisis”; they imagine themselves being the saviors of the poor and downtrodden. If they had any idea of the terrorist haven The Sudan has become, they wouldn’t want a thing to do with it.

It looks like Senator Steel-Plate-In-Head is trying to out "Obama" Obama. How are our vital National security interests threatened by the Darfur civil war Senator? Please help us understand Senator. Maybe, Senator, you should call your good friend Joe Wilson and see what he knows about Darfur's attempts to buy yellowcake from Niger. Maybe you should take a meeting with Madelyn Halfbright about Darfur's WMD development program.

You're a moron Joe.

I’m with Biden on this. This could be done without boots on the ground.

All we need is air power to destroy the air gun ships and tanks that are being used against the victims.

Why Bush has not already acted on this, I’m not sure. It would stand in stark contrast to “the first black president’s” inaction in Rwanda.

My senator. Ugh!

Well, surprise, the bad guys are Muslim there as well. Maybe a quick in and out engagement with a few precision air strikes might not be a bad idea. Then just sit back and watch.

Darfur

Why? What has Darfur ever done to us? Why would they be a threat to the United States? Iraq was a huge threat to the U.S., yet people complain about us going there. Why in the world would we even consider going to Darfur after all the flack about Iraq?

I agree in intervening. I reecently saw a Fox report on the fighting there. Militia men - er animals - after plundering a village then rape all the women. One woman was raped many times daily for a week while her children watched. Then the men disemboweled her husband while they forced her to watch while being raped.

I believe if no one acts to stop this, as they can’t do it themselves, it affects the entire planet. Noblesse oblige.
America is big enough to do this.

The same reasoning was used to get the US involved in Iraq in the first place, in 1991. Oppressed people (the Kuwaiti) were being held hostage by a neighboring tyrant, and the world was stirred to send the US military might in to pacify the region.

At least then, there was an important factor to demanding intervention - the oil supply to the world was in danger of being disrupted. Well, maybe not so much, but the equivalence was established in the minds of many - war (and American blood) for oil.

But now, in Darfur, intervention becomes a way to “redeem” ourselves, fighting a battle for the benefit of freeing an oppressed people, without the stigma of doing it for oil.

It is apparently immoral to go to war for economic reasons, but highly honorable to go to war for a purpose, and in a place, where there is absolutely no economic benefit. whatsoever.

It irritates me that the mainstream media, and idiots like Biden, say ‘Darfur’ to avoid drawing attention to The Sudan.

The Sudan is an Islamofacist regime that hates Americans just as the Iranian or Syrian governments do.

There is no ‘national interest’ at stake, there is no reason for us to deploy troops there.

If Biden and the Hollywood elites want to stop whats happening in THE SUDAN, my suggestion is stop talking and hire Blackwater to go in.

Its what they do, folks.

Now there's a mission in the strategic interests of the US. Good thing it's nothing like Bush's war against Islamofascists which has no moral justification according to biden.
