Timm and Pgardn,
I'm not arguing with either of you. You are both correct. So are Somerfrost and Danzig.
Pgardn said it well, "This is clearly a horrific slaughter."
Just my "take", but I think the UN will be equally as ineffective in dealing with this as they have been with so many previous genocides.
Sorry...Huttu's and Tutsies come to mind, or how the UN was so "key" in Cambodia (right?). The US will twiddle their thumbs for a while, maybe make a request of China to intervene. Americans will sign petitions.
And the people of Darfur will continue to DIE!

Ahhh! Feeling so impotent lately regarding the confrontations of tragedies.
