PICTURES THAT EVERY ADULT ON THE PLANET SHOULD SEE - THIS IS HAPPENING ON ALL OUR WATCH TO DARFURIS NOW!

I posted this along with other things previously. But it deserves a post on its own.

This needs to be mandatory viewing by every adult on the planet. Especially by every leader of democracies who claim justice is the standard of what we stand for. No noble standard here....

PICTURES OF WHAT IS REALLY HAPPENING TO THE VICTIMS OF THE DARFUR GENOCIDE

Friends:

These pictures are not for children. It is your choice whether to view them or not. They are photographs of some of the victims of the attack on Kalma camp. The photographs are horriffic and very difficult to look at. But I place them here because I feel it should not be easy to turn away. Levels of knowing. Welcome to another level. The images may return in your nightmares, but this is the reality for Darfur's people. The Kalma attack is described in this article I wrote with Eric Reeves, for the Wall St Journal -- click here to read the editorial. Since then, a second camp has been attacked-Zamzam. When will the world DO SOMETHING to stop this???

Again, you will find these images disturbing and beyond human comprehension.

ACTION: Tell Presidential Candidates to Support ICC

On September 10th the government of Sudan launched new attacks on ZamZam Camp for internally displaced persons. Many of those who were injured and killed were already forced to flee their homes one, two or three times. This attack comes a week after an attack on Kalma Camp by government troops. This violence is unacceptable. Our leadership has not done enough to end this violence. We need to build the political will to move our leaders to action.

When we speak to refugees in the camps, they tell us that peace will not come before justice.

The candidates have spoken out on Darfur, but they have yet to stand behind the ICC case against Sudan’s Presidnet al-Bashir. This case will begin the process of justice and reconciliation for Darfuris who have suffered, and continue to suffer every day. The Kalma Massacre, recent attcks on ZamZam Camp, and al-Bashir’s threats against humanitarian aid workers are war crimes. We cannot allow his threats and military action in Darfur to continue as we stand by. Violence has led to yet another NGO pull out leaving 1/2 million people without aid and another attack on World Food Program envoy may push them to also pull out, leaving millions without assistance. The next President must be prepared to uphold justice and bring peace to the region today not tomorrow. The first step is for both Obama and McCain to support the ICC case.
