Thanks for posting. How does one characterize the non-responsiveness of the international community (including the US) to this genocide. Combine the possibility that Sudan may have been the recipient of some of Saddam's WMDs prior to the war to oust him, I wonder how we justifying turning a blind eye to this.
Perhaps it's time to send some Stinger SAM's in to Sudanese minorities.
This disturbs me. Blame for the slaughter in Rwanda in large part belongs to Kofi Annan, the French, and Bill Clinton, and I have never been shy about saying so.
The destruction in South Sudan has been worse, and other than expressing the proper sentiments, and daring (daring!) to use the word "genocide", I can't say that the Bush administration has done much more than did Clinton in his day.
I realize that Bush has a lot on his plate, but if you slow-walk this thing, the South Sudanese will be dead. A slow-motion response on the part of the US, UN, et al, is to be complicit in mass murder.
Standing by and taking notes gives the appearance of action, but at the end of the day, the dead are still dead.
May God protect Mr. Steidle.
