what is the mandate of African Mission in Sudan(AMIS)?
346529
The military mandate of AMIS was essentially four-fold: to monitor and observe compliance with the ceasefire agreement; to assist in confidence building measures; to contribute to a secure environment by facilitating humanitarian assistance and returns of internally displaced persons; and to contribute to overall security. \n\nThe Sudanese government is part of the problem, not part of the solution.

South Africa: The ANC government barred South Africa's foremost Aids lobby group, the TAC (Treatment action campaign) from participating in a major international United Nations Aids forum.\n\nThe government keeps punting their "cultural" aids cure of Africa potatoes, garlic and olive oil in a country with one of the highest Aids infection rates while at the same time censoring organizations who dispute their policies and want the population to receive real medicine.\n\nThis bothers me because if you think that you are going to cure Aids with potatoes and garlic you should not be the minister of health of a country like South Africa.

Dont think so.After somalia the american govt has been plagued by the black hawk syndrome.And since sudan lies close to somalia the govt will be more hesitant to get involved.The only hope will be for other members of the U.N. to take a strong,unbiased and definate initiative about sudan.Maybe this will coax the american govt to get invlved.

It is a rebel group wih serious issues where Kony the leader thinks he sees visions and wants Uganda to be ruled by the Ten Commendments. HIs group has been linked to massacres, child soldiering and a whole lot of war crimes. He continues to kill nad maime people but the African Union, The UN, the internation community are simply not doing anything. In fact he frequently holds talks with the SPLM/A. that is the government of the newly formed South Sudan. And to think our leaders were protecting us from the axis of evil.

Armegeddon.\nSome things need to be taught locally, to individuals. Trying to dictate rules for missionaries from the top down would probably be ignored, since you first have to have some underlying common ground to set up a base of morality which is higher than that being presented by the proselityzers. In other words, the people being proselytized to need to be smarter than the ones trying to sell them stuff (TVs, gods, deodorants, McDonald's, etc.). The powers-that-be are the powers-that-be because they know things or present things which individuals cannot inherently disagree with. Sometimes the indigenous peoples have figured this out, but were unlucky and wiped out by diseases or weapons beyond their powers. All global organizations have some kind of profit motive or control motive, neither of which have the individual's rights in mind unless enough individuals managed to get together on their own. Try Amnesty International, maybe they can help you.\nYou are basically trying to start a group of people who don't want to be in one group. Anarchists Unite!!

That is a wonderful goal, but what about the rest of the world?\n\nWill they stop the killing in Darfur? Will they stop suicide bombers? Will they stop the destruction of the rain forest?\n\nWE can only go so far. It has to be US, all of US
