#1 For those who may believe the United States is doing nothing to assist the AU peace effort in Darfur, the Euro's kicked in 200m this year, we kicked in $ 45m USD for the construction of barracks and other facilities.

#2 The United Nations and the African Union on Wednesday condemned an attack on a village in Darfur in western Sudan in which camel and horse-riding assailants killed 20 civilians and burned their huts.

But if you ask the UN, it isn't genocide!

#3 correct, B-rama. To get a sense of what they DO consider to be genocide, look under "Palestine" in the UN dictionary.

#4 The African Union has resisted our request that they do real work in Darfur. I suspect they are being bribed by various Arabic States.
