Description :: Election year and the lack of interest in Third World problems
In case you haven't heard, there is a strong possibility that the Sudanese government is sponsoring the genocide of it's own people. Perhaps I shouldn't say genocide, since Europe is dragging it's feet about calling it genocide (that was sarcasm). Whether or not you agree that it's genocide, there is no denying the attrocities being committed. Villages are being bombed and/or burned, the men and boys killed and the women raped in hopes that they will become pregnant. Oh, and did i mention that these are Black Africans? They are being raped by Arabs (also encouraged by the government) in hopes that their offspring will have lighter skin. That is sickening. Oh, and guess what? No one is doing a thing to stop this.
