Be a Voice for Darfur

by Drima on December 13, 2008

I’ve had my issues with the Save Darfur Coalition previously, but this looks like a good initiative. If you’re American, get on board and sign. It only takes less than a minute. And it’s the least we could do.

My concern with the latest developments of violence and initiantives from the North such as the new “Peace Road” are they are positioning themselves for the vote in 2011. Since the majority of the oil and resources are in the South my gut feeling is that it will only get worse. I have posted an article on my blog, http://www.speakingforsudan.blogspot.com/ that describes a new road being put in Sudan to connect the entire country with its neighbors. On the surface this seems like a wonderful idea, my fear is that that if you look into it deeper it is being financed by China and Saudi Arabia. Both I believe looking to exploit the oil rich South. I hope that my opinions and feelings are wrong. I have been to Malakal Sudan and spent time with the wonderful people there. As a follower of Jesus Christ it is my duty to draw awareness to what is going on.

Just a short note to let you know that I’ve added an RSS feed of your blog to my own blog that I just got started. I am planning a journalistic trip to southern Sudan and found your site interesting.

Sorry, we can’t be bothered about Sudan right now. Don’t you know that Israel is retaliating against the attacks on it and even the Sudanese are out protesting in the streets about it. Why should we care about Sudan when it is clear that to them, Palestine is more important?
