U.N. Report Says Darfur Violence Is Not Genocide
U.N. Report Says Darfur Violence Is Not Genocide

A U.N. commission on Sudan has concluded that systematic, government-backed violence in the western region of Darfur was not genocide, but that there was evidence of crimes against humanity with an ethnic dimension.

Can someone, please, please tell me what the hell is the difference???

This article just left me stunned. While they spend 4 MONTHS deliberating over whether or not genocide is taking place, tens of thousands of people continue to die, and all the UN and US government can do is argue about whether or not to prosecute these people? How about stopping them?

    Good thing the previous commenter brought up the botched Rwanda thing. Well, I don't know what we should do either, but opening up discussion is a good thing. Maybe someone more politically savvy might have the answer if enough people talk about this.
