Well, I Know Now

A clear lesson I learned in the museum was that outside forces that tend to divide people up inside their country are unbelievably counterproductive. In other words, people came from other countries — I guess you’d call them colonialists — and they pitted one group of people against another.

President Bush on why sending US troops to Darfur would be a bad idea.

Apparently he forgot all about Iraq!

I can't believe that the US has done basically nothing about the situation in Sudan/Darfur. Someone needs to tell W that there's oil there. Since he doesn't seem to care that there's a genocide occurring.
