Rape is being used by pro government militias in Sudan

(1/5) > >>

Don Rizzle:
Sudan's pro-government militias are using mass rape as a weapon in their conflict against non-Arab groups in Darfur, says Amnesty International.

Girls as young as eight and women of 80 have been raped, says the human rights group, which wants an enquiry into war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Peace talks between the government and Darfur rebels broke down on Saturday.

Aid agencies have warned that thousands could die from hunger and disease in the camps, where civilians have fled.

muslim extremists blame the western countries for Iraq.

Im sure everybody, even the strongest american patriots, have faced -even if only deep inside- what's going on.

Don Rizzle:
the differences there is overwealming reason to act NOW whereas with Iraq there was no change to the status quo it has become clear the containment was working, however it was at the expense of the iraqi people whose lives havn't now improved as a result we can only hope they will in the near future tho
