It hosted a few Canadian speakers, amongst them was NDP leader Jack Layton. Usually a moment of silence would be observed for all the victims lost but I suppose it was in part silence which caused so many of their deaths. So instead it was replaced with a few seconds of screaming. I went down there to participate after feeling rather depressed about the whole Darfur affair this past week in particular.

I think the problem I'm pointing out it is (a) lack of publicised campaigns and as for what money Gulf countries do give, I'm inclined to believe it goes through the Sudanese government and more importantly (b) lack of political pressure from Arab countries which have a stake in this tragedy.

If the problem is as simple as you describe here, why the Suadense government is letting it happen? why is this problem becoming US vs Sudan than anything else? I wish the ADC spend their time on arab-wide issues instead of doing only palestine! I wish I can learn more about this prolem from an objective 3rd party source.

I was planning myself to blog about this issue. The main thing that bloggers (or any non-politician) can do is to make people aware of the situation. Hopefully sooner than later, people will demand that our governments intervene in this horrible situation. In any case, your writing is a good step forward. Good post.

I dont have much hope in our Arab "leaders" as I have yet to see any serious organized action to end this genocide, but I expect more from the Muslim world. WE need to organize and mobilize ourselves and hold protests, collect donations, rally our "leaders" and push them to do something, and do all that is in our power to bring this to an end. We can start by a simple task called prayer.. praying for these people and asking God to end this genocide. Hopefully, the Arab and Muslim world will wake up, turn off their television sets that are tuned to Haifa Wehby and Nancy Ajram, get up, and work for this cause before its too late.
