What? how are they going to help themselves? There is no water,food and people are dying for stupid shit like being Muslim or Christian. There is no sense of law there. Its all corruption.

weather it'll have some effect or not at least its something. Theres always hope. And through signing some kind of petitions on whatever kinds of issues, were showing that there are people behind the cause.

signed, because talking about how futile it is to do it seems more futile than not doing it.

Kinda hard to help themselves when they are abused by other people without means to protect themselves.

I think he meant that they are not willing to help themselves with peace even within their own country, even within their own religions and social classes. If they won't hold hands how are we going to make them do it? By pointing guns at them? That worked well in Iraq.

There are two sides of rebels fighting, the arabs and the natives of Sudan.

In the middle are the people. They have very little food, water, and shelter. there are no jobs, there is no post office. There is no infrastructure. They rely on humanitarian efforts to eat. They cannot help themselves because all they can do is try to survive. They try to hide through the days and nights and hope that they are not dismembered by rebel forces or raped and killed.

NGOs are incapable at this point of even accessing most of these people, because of immense danger to their lives.

my understanding is that there are at least 3 sides to the fighting. It's not as clear cut as just Arabs vs Natives.

both channels are saying the UN has agreed to send troops if peace agreements are not signed today. I'd like to see this get resolved peacefully.

I went to the rally today at Queen's Park. Unfortunately there wasn't as great a turn out as Washington- not even close. I think 15,000 people showed up in Washington.

Anyway, there's supposed to be a budgetary meeting in the house of commons this Tuesday, May 2, at 4pm. Jack Layton and other speakers today are encouraging anyone who cares about the situation in Darfur to contact your local MP or even Stephen Harper, if you have his number, and pressure Parliament so they at least don't have to cut the food rations.

The World Food Bank is being forced to cut food rations because Canada and other countries have cut funding to Darfur.

I hope some of you will will contact your local MP and say something before Tuesday. I know I will.
