The Darfur Conflict is an ongoing conflict in the Darfur region of western Sudan, mainly between the Janjaweed, a militia group recruited from local Arab tribes, and the non-Arab peoples of the region. It is strongly believed that the Sudanese government supports the militia group, though it has strongly denied this. The conflict began in February 2003.\n\nThe listed source link will give you all the ws, the how, and the to what extent.

No, of course genocide was not a good thing.  \n\nIt's erroneous to classify God's destruction of Sodom and Jericho as genocide.  \n\nIn both cases, the "big picture" is God's victory over evil on behalf of those who trust and believe in Him.  \n\nOne thing I've found helpful in reading the Bible is not only to focus on the event being described, but the deeper meaning behind the event and the lessons from it that can be applied today.

Well the Security Council of the UN is investigating things like the genocide in the Sudan and the Iranian nuclear issue. It was formed by all of the member countries.

Rwanda currently has a fragile peace..tutsi and hutu people share the same village they have for hundreds of years...continued uneasy government groups are still trying to organise themselves let alone run the country..the slaughter was carried out on an industrial scale...Un forces were prevented by UN head Kofi Annan from intervening in the carnage..he was abley assisted by dithering on the part of then secretary of state and UN ambassador Madeline Albright...everyone wanted to appear politically correct and not intevene...the killing of a million inocents is a hell of a price for being stylish..

Ah, Kofi. Before being SG, Kofi was in charge of UN peacekeeper forces. While there he kept getting urgent messages from the UN troops in Rwanda. He promptly ignored them, and 800,000 people were brutally murdered. What a hero Kofi is.\n\nAnd in reviewing the atrocities in Darfur, Kofi has seen no genocide, despite over 1,000,000 blacks being killed by the Arab Muslim government and its agents. Heck, he has no problem with Sudan being on the UN Human Rights commission. And, he seems to have no problem with the fact that over $25 billion was kicked back to Saddam in the UN Oil-for-Blood Money scandal.\n\nSo, as far as I can see, Kofi is a typical useless tea-sipping corrupt and uncaring sack of manure.\n\nThat's why Clinton loved him so much. So alike.

Just another example of the fact that unless the US does something to protect the oppressed, not a single other nation on Earth will. We are the only ones that give a damn.\n\nThis is Kofi Anan's second failure to protect against genocide. Kofi was head of UN peacekeeping missions when the UN troops in Rwanda called him to tell him something terrible was going to happen, and he needed to send more troops and give them instructions. He did nothing.\n\nNow, he has completely ignored the atrocities in Darfur, and has not even objected to Sudan being on the UN Human Rights council.\n\nBut it is time to open our eyes and see that no other country cares about others. There is no African, EU, Asian, or American (N., S. & Central) that gives a damn.\n\nAnd that's a sad indictment on the rest of the world, especially all those moral midgets who throw aspersions at the USA.

f**k Turkey! The Armenian genocide is considered THE model of a sucessful genocide. How many Armenians are around Lake Van, a traditionally Armenian area. There are none!! The barbaric Turks murdered them all.\nDon't even get me started about the Kurds!\nAtaturk was a drunken joke and his image and name should be pissed on by everyone who loves freedom and liberty.

The Rwandan Genocide was the massacre of an estimated 800,000  to 1,071,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus, carried out by two extremist Hutu militia groups during a period of 100 days from April 6th through mid-July 1994.

The current Rwanda government is claiming that they have evidence from the investigation of the genocide that the French trained the "militias" that were responsible for the atrocities. Check the lates article out of Africa linked below.

I think the killing should stop. I also think someone in Government should take a active interest in stopping the killing. The family of 16 killed in a Israel mortar attack was not at all pleasant to read. The 6-8 kids dead broke my heart. We also have a Human tragedy in Darfur that has been ignored by republicans for too long.

1.  Write to your congressperson about getting them help.  (I write to mine about Darfur)\n\n2.  Write a letter to the editor of a newspaper to help enlighten people about how much they need help.\n\n3.  Find a good organization that helps people.  You can donate to Amnesty International right over the net.  If you're a christian, you might prefer World Vision.

I am very concerned about this subject and have emailed Bush and my state reps.  I also joined savedarfur.  Here is the latest info I received.  Hope this helps!\n\nsome exciting news: Academy-award winner George Clooney will speak at the Save Darfur Rally to Stop Genocide in Washington, D.C., on April 30!\n\nClooney and his father, Nick, just returned on Sunday from a fact-finding trip to the Darfur region.  They now know from first-hand evidence how dire the situation in Darfur has become.  Hundreds of thousands have been killed and nearly one-third of the population of Darfur has been displaced.  And the world simply watches and waits.\n\nWe must show President Bush and other world leaders that the time to act is now!\n\nIf you can't make it to Washington there are many other rallies in other parts of the country all with goal of drawing attention to the tragic Darfur genocide.\n\n\nWe have collected hundreds of thousands of postcards.  Now we must show our will through sheer numbers.  The Rally to Stop Genocide will be a huge gathering of people from all over the country – and the world – who are committed to ending the genocide in Darfur.  \n\n\nThank you, \n\nDavid Rubenstein\nSave Darfur Coalition\n\nP.S. George Clooney will appear on the Oprah show tomorrow, Wednesday the 26th, to talk about his trip and the situation in Darfur.  Visit Oprah.com for more information and please tune in.

It is kind of hard to help your kids in Darfur when there is a genocide going on. Men, women, and children are taking off the street and brutally beaten to death. Limbs are being chopped off. Children are kidnapped and are made to be soldiers.

The worst things that have happened lately is in the country of Rwanda. A genocide in where 800,000 people, including women and children were viciously tortured, raped, beaten and killed.\n\nRwanda was a Belgium colony before being Rwanda. In order to have more effective control over their dominions they divided all people in two distinct social classes: HUTUS and TUTSIS, they are slightly different.\n\nThey cruelly decided to give TUTSIS all the priviledges, best posts, best housing, best everything, and the price was to be loyal to the Belgian authorities, they even were the Belgian police. \n\nAnd to the HUTUS they treated them like animals, by means of the TUTSIS.\n\nWhen the Belgians left, the country became chaos, ridled with Civil war between this artificially created difference in races.\n\nAfter the assasination of a HUTU president, all hell broke loose, the HUTU government, backed of by the Interhamwe, an illegal militia of killers, began sistematically killing every TUTSI they saw, and very viciously.\n\nBecause Rwanda did not have any important economic interests with no big power, and it did not have any major power country as a friend, no one intervened in helping stop this slaughter, even the UN and our country, the United States, turned their backs on them. NO ONE helped.\nYou can rent the movie Hotel Rwanda. It is very clear there what happened. \n\nThe United States did not want to participate do to the recent memory of what happened to the military personnel we had in Somalia in 1992 (you can see it in the movie BLACK HAWK DOWN), a terrible tragedy for us....\na big tragedy for US soldiers.
