Africa - All talk and no action in Darfur

So, the BBC wants America to take action in Darfur. That's rich, given the way the BBC have fabricated alleged war crimes by the US in Iraq. The BBC has been in the forefront in attacking the US over Iraq and Afghanistan and now it begs the US to take action in Darfur. That's very rich.

Jimmy Carter faces down Darfur officials

Misleading headline of the day. Carter of course did no such thing but that doesn't stop the AP from portraying Carter as a man of courage.

Carter later agreed to a compromise by which tribal representatives would be brought to him at another location later Wednesday. But the refugee delegates never showed up.

Wow, some face down, eh?

UN backs new Darfur peace force

As if those poor people didn't have enough misery. Now the jihadist UN is going to send its troops to rape and enforce sharia law. Just another huge waste of money and resources which will only make things worse. The jihadists will now be able to spread their message under the protection of the UN.

The Times has some good background.

"The Rzigat Aballa Arabs previously formed the backbone of the dreaded Janjawid militia. Khartoum unleashed them initially on the area in 2003 to quash a rebellion by the black African majority that resented rule by the Arab-dominated Government. The African tribes, also Muslims, represent about 90 per cent of the 6.5 million population. "

That is what this is really all about. Bin Laden has called the Sudan a major jihad site. Spreading Wahabism means "converting" these black Muslims and any Christians into Wahabists.

"Sudan experts give warning that the failure to end the insecurity and violence in Darfur could now threaten the 2005 peace deal that ended the separate civil war in the country between the Muslim north and Christian south."

The war on terror should be about stopping the spread of jihad but most in the world don't understand that - even those running the war.
