Today's Headline: The UN Finally Does Something about Darfur!
Two years later, the UN voted to impose sanctions—prohibited travel outside Sudan and froze international bank accounts—on four of those most responsible for the 100,000+ dead and 2,000,000 refugees in Darfur, Sudan. For two years, government-sponsored militia in Darfur have been going from village to village, raping women, killing men, burning homes. Meanwhile, the United States was arguing with the rest of the United Nations about whether to take the responsible parties to the International Criminal Court or to create a temporary tribunal.
Two years!!!
I'm glad someone is finally doing something, but this is one of those things that make me lose all faith in humanity.
