UN backs talks to end ‘ethnic cleansing’ in Sudan
2004-04-04
Yep. That oughta take care of the problem.
The Security Council on Friday gave its backing for talks to end the bloodshed in Sudan’s Darfur region amid what a UN official called the ethnic cleansing of the country’s non-Arab population. But Sudan’s UN ambassador poured cold water on hopes of a quick solution in Darfur, where hundreds of thousands of people have been driven from their homes in what is emerging as one of the worst crises in the world.
"We'll talk after we've bumped off enough of 'em! We ain't done yet!"
“Every effort has to be made to find a settlement to the conflict,” said current president German ambassador Gunter Pleuger after the 15-nation council expressed support for faltering talks in neighbouring Chad to end the conflict.

#5  Well, I'm just thrilled. After all, think of all the other genocides that have been stopped by the U.N. talking.

To paraphrase Frank Zappa;

Talking about ending genocide is like dancing about architecture.

Neither do sh!t for a tree.

The U.N. is about as useful as a turd in a rainstorm....
