UN report stops short of labelling Darfur 'genocide'

Story dated 31 January 2005

"The violence [committed by, or with the blessing of the tyrants of Sudan] has driven about 1.8 million people from their homes. Many are living in refugee camps." Most of these are Christians and other non-Muslims, who also tend to be of a different ethnic group than Muslims (if the cultural patterns in the Sudan are anything like Nigeria). But it's not genocide. The UN said so. I guess there is no slave trade going on in the Sudan, either. Can't wait to see the UN report on that one. Remember that this is the same UN that has decided to ignore China's not-subtle-at-all statements that they would make war upon and conquer a neighboring sovereign nation.
