| Darfur elders say United States demonises Sudan to hurt Islam |
| 2004-08-28 |
| A group of tribal chiefs from the war-torn Sudanese region of Darfur on Saturday told Nigerian Islamic leaders that the United States was using the conflict in their homeland to demonise Muslims. The 11 elders were brought to Nigeria as part of a pro-government delegation to African Union peace talks aimed at resolving the bloody 18-month conflict between Khartoum and Darfur's two main rebel groups. The United States has led international condemnation of the violence and US lawmakers have branded the attacks by the Janjaweed Arab militia on black African tribes regarded as rebel sympathisers a genocide. But the chiefs, who were escorted to the northern Nigerian city of Kano by the Sudanese junior minister for social development Marghani Mansur Badawi, called such a stance an attack on the Muslim world as a whole. |

| #2 It must be nice to be a muslim. Male that is. You can rape, pillage, murder, commit genocide, and the minute someone confronts you on the action, you can claim they are demonising your religion. I'm thinking of starting my own cult called the Imam butt fuckers for peace. |
