why we need to end the conflict in darfur
after the holocaust, the world made a promise that never again will we let such an atrocity occur. well, it did. on our watch. rwanda as well as hundreds of other genocides did. we cannot be bystanders to this. hundreds of thousands have died since the start of the darfur massacre. millions have been displaced because their homes have been burnt down. countless women and children have been raped. we are basically murderers for allowing this to happen. as priviledged people, we have the power to change the situation in Sudan. America claims to be a nation that helps other countries. Look at Iraq. We supposedly went to Iraq to establish a more strong government for the country’s citzens. But, it has forced me to believe that we are actually selfish in the way we try to be selfless. Many believe the only reason why we decided to help Iraq is to reap the benefits of the hard labor- in other words OIL! Why is it that the UN can’t seem to live up to its original mission? Why are they cutting food aid to refugees in half? We need to take a stand.
&& its possible to save them if together we work<3
