| | Genocide: Darfur - 172 sec
The genocide in Darfur has left more than 200,000 black people dead, a thousand villages burned, 3 million refugees. Everyday while the international community waits more of Darfur's women are being raped, more men are being murdered, more childfren are being killed, more of Darfur's black people are becoming refugees. China is underwriting the genocide in Darfur by supplying Sudan's dictator Omar Hassan al-Bashir with weapons and by protecting him at the United Nations. China imports 80% of Sudan oil. If the Chinese communist government in Beijing wanted to end the genocide in Darfur they could do it easily. The don't care that black people are being butchered. Boycott the Beijing Olympics.

Here's a very brief history of Darfur, if you don't want to read/watch the above:
The Darfur province of Sudan is mainly comprised of Arab Muslims and African Muslims. The Sudanese government is primarily made up of Arab Muslims, and therefore they favor the Arabs in Darfur. For years the ethnic Africans had been given significantly less rights and resources, and finally in July 2003, a group of rebel Africans formed the Sudanese Liberation Movement (SLM) and attacked key governmental locations in Darfur. An Arab militia called the Janjaweed militia then emerged to counter the SLM, and began persecuting all ethnic Africans in Darfur. The Janjaweed is known for its notorious methods of suppression which include, but are not limited to, rape, torture, and murder. And it is evident that the Sudanese government is assisting the Janjaweed militia despite their continuous claims of innocence.
So basically the African Muslims are being killed or Driven out of Darfur at the hands of the Janjaweed (and the Sudanese government). UN military support to the region is minimal. Displaced Africans usually end up in refugee camps, many of which are located in the neighboring country of Chad. However, disease is rife in these camps and attacks by the Janjaweed are always possible, as the Chad/Darfur border is largely unguarded. Our donations will greatly help to improve the harsh conditions for the 2.5 million people in these refugee camps, providing vital resources such as medication, basic clothing, and food.

Darfur, Sudan is being called the worst humanitarian crisis in the world today. Tens of thousands of people have died. Two million more have been forced to flee their homes and livelihoods. For these innocent civilians, living on the edge of survival, their only hope is the dwindling number of humanitarian organizations willing to risk the dangers on the ground in Darfur to provide relief. International Medical Corps was one of the first relief organizations to arrive on the scene in Darfur, and remains there to this day. Established in 1984 by volunteer doctors and nurses, IMC provides help in more than 25 countries and regions worldwide that have been ravaged by war and disaster. IMC's network of some 5,000 doctors, nurses and other health care professionals makes it one of the fastest, most effective emergency response agencies in the world. In Darfur, IMC has been providing critical emergency medical services to a target population of about 300,000. This includes operating seven primary health care centers and two mobile clinics aimed at improving access to health care, nutritional assistance, and clean water and sanitation. These facilities provide family medicine; pre-natal, maternal, and child health care; immunizations; referrals and transportation for secondary care; and health and hygiene education. IMC also has rehabilitated local health care facilities, providing medicines, supplies and health care training to local professionals. For more information visit http://www.imcworldwide.org.

| | Darfur in 10 Minutes: An Overview of the Conflict in Sudan - 596 sec
A brief overview of the Darfur conflict from a friend of mine who has spent a considerable amount of time "on the ground" there.
The overview describes three of the significant "drivers" that explain what is going on in Darfur, but also show why decreasing the misery is so difficult.
The three "drivers" are 1) ethnicity, 2) oil (mostly China, in the ongoing "scramble for Africa"), and 3) desertification/climate change.
I hope this overview is helpful. Any informative comments are greatly appreciated.
As a personal note, with the Darfur hell so centred around oil, I can't help but think of the Iraq hell, that also began in 2003, and has likely resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of civilians—basically folks like you and me.
Don't you just dream of a time when enough people actually say, "No"—and it has meaning? Maybe that time is closer than we know.

Darfur Region - Sudan Genocide on border of Chad and the doorway to the Arab worlds. The Darfur conflict is a complex crisis in the Darfur region of western Sudan. One side of the armed conflict is composed mainly of the Sudanese military and the Janjaweed, a militia group recruited mostly from the tribes of the northern Rizeigat, camel-herding nomads. The other side comprises a variety of rebel groups, notably the Sudan Liberation Movement and the Justice and Equality Movement, recruited primarily from the land-tilling Fur, Zaghawa, and Massaleit ethnic groups. The Sudanese government, while publicly denying that it supports the Janjaweed, has provided money and assistance to the militia and has participated in joint attacks targeting the tribes from which the rebels draw support.The conflict began in February 2003. Unlike in the Second Sudanese Civil War, which was fought between the primarily Muslim north and Christian and Animist south, almost all of the combatants and victims in Darfur are Muslim. The government and Janjaweed attacks upon the non-Baggara civilian populace have resulted in a major humanitarian crisis. There are many casualty estimates, most concurring on a range within the hundreds of thousands. The United Nations (UN) estimates that the conflict has left as many as 450,000 dead from violence and disease. Most NGOs (non-governmental organizations) use 200,000 to over 400,000, a figure from the Coalition for International Justice that has since been cited by the UN. Sudan's government claims that over 9,000 people have been killed, although this figure is seen as counterfactual. As many as 2.5 million are thought to have been displaced as of October 2006.
