U.N. talks... Sudanese die.

Keeping with the trend of today's post.

The U.N. has as of yet not classified the actions in the Sudan as Genocide. Just as they did in Rwanda, they will have to study the issue. In the mean time, the Sudanese die.

Kofi Annan, once again showing how astute he is, has called for an end to the war in the southern portions of the Sudan, so that peace may come to Darfur, the western region of the Sudan. Brilliant. No. But typical of the U.N. approach.

Maybe the Secretary General should reflect on his own admissions regarding Rwanda in 1994.

"I believed at the time that I was doing my best. But I realised after the genocide that there was more that I could and should have done to sound the alarm and rally support". or how about this one - "Of all my aims as Secretary-General, there is none to which I feel more deeply committed than that of enabling the United Nations never again to fail in protecting a civilian population from genocide or mass slaughter."
