movie making on my own

A slightly off topic post for today. Subject: Darfur. In regards to the situation over there, WTF? Apparently the international criminal court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for Bashir. His response? To throw out several of the human aid organizations in Sudan. What a way to prove to the world that you’re an asshole. This whole thing just really boggles my mind.

I could go on for awhile but I’ll keep this brief since it’s so totally left field for this blog. Here’s a link that discusses the current situation in Darfur. For those interested Michelle has several blog posts about this. I’ve found it hard in the past to find current information on Darfur. Just doing a search of “Darfur” brings up articles from 2006. It’s a little different over there since then, however the amount of death doesn’t seem to have changed.

Anyone have any ideas as how to “save Darfur”, as they say? Apparently talking to politicians doesn’t really do much as we’ve been talking to them for the past five years.
