US, AU condemn Darfur attack
2005-12-22
The United Nations and the African Union have condemned an attack on a village in Darfur in western Sudan in which armed men killed 20 civilians and burned their huts.
I'm sure they find that very comforting...
The attackers riding camels and horses swept through the village of Abu Sorouj in the war-wrecked Darfur region on Monday, killing the villagers and destroying and looting their houses, UN spokesperson Radhia Achouri, told reporters. UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan condemned the attack, Achouri said on Wednesday, warning that "the security situation in Darfur remains volatile. Militia attacks on villages continue".
He condemns, but he does nothing. Give him another peace prize.

#6  I was actually being somewhat serious, .com. Don't remember ever getting a ROFL from ya. And, all kiddin' aside, I do stand back in awe of your verbal bloodlettings when trolls show up. Your rants are one in a million in my book! Now, enough brown-nosin'.

#5  Ha! Don't be mean, BA, that's not the first by a long shot, nor will it be the last, I'm certain! You're making me feel all self-conscious n' stuff, heh. Mebbe I should go now - it's is my bedtime, lol. Me 'n Dracula hang out these days... ;-)

#4  "it's just Bush's listenin' to you calling Papa John's"

ROFL, BA!

WOW! My first ROFL from .com, I love it! (/blushing and golf clapping and patting myself on the back now/). And, CF, I think the President's # is a lot closer to reality (he admitted 30,000 Iraqis dead...I don't think he called them civilians vs. military, but anyhoo), as he was citing 30,000 estimated from the DAILY MSM reports, which, in and of themselves, quote "Anonymous sources" and "Doctors" at the local hospital. And, a lot of these MSM "reports" include those Iraqis killed by the "insurgents" as road-side collateral of their IEDs in a lot of cases.

#3  So how long has this been going on while the UN sits on its hands? Years now?

I expect a strongly worded letter any year now. Then the UN and AU will start up their 'food for nookie' program.

BA, thats nothing. The BBC had an article on all the 'civilian casualties' quoting such impeachable sources as 'Iraq body count' and the discreated Lancet article.

The article left a strong sense that all the hundreds of thousands of dead are the sole fault of the coalition (sp?).

#1  What pisses me off is that I have to read this on al-Jizz, while our own MSM has *crickets chirping* and only reports on how many Iraqis we've killed (even though, we go WAY beyond what anyone else does to not kill civilians). Nope, nuttin' to see here...it's just Bush's listenin' to you calling Papa John's and NO drillin' in ANWR!
