DARFUR UPDATE: The Washington Post editorializes:
It is as though, in the wake of the West’s failure to prevent Rwanda’s genocide, the gods of history are asking, okay, if we give you a second chance and months of warning, will you do better? So far the prospect that 300,000 to 1 million people may perish — an estimate offered more than a month ago by Andrew S. Natsios, the head of the U.S. Agency for International Development — is failing to galvanize serious action.
Genocide works, because, fundamentally, the world doesn’t care. And the genocidaires can always find ready allies.
