Sudan Horrors Mount; US Begins To Apply Pressure



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Colin Powell went to his friends at the UN today and circulated a Security Council resolution threatening sanctions against Sudan if it doesn't stop the waves of violence in the Darfur region. Congress has labeled these crimes as genocide, the UN calls it the worst humanitarian crisis in the world and the Sudanese government says no one knows what they're talking about. The sad truth? No other country is acting more swiftly and the US's hands are mostly tied thanks to our already-thin troops on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan.
