Re: Should the US interfere in Darfur??

I believe in consistency of thought and of action. If the reasoning behind the American invasion of Iraq was to depose a brutal and genocidal dictator as purported my many pro-war campaigners then a similar platform should be mounted with regard to all such matters no matter where in the world they occur.

A failure to intervene by America in Sudan realises that the American foreign policy is not one that is geared towards the spreading of democracy nor the curbing of genocide as it occurs. A failure to intervene is a testimony to the hypocracy inherent in the ideaology of the neo-convervatist policies abroad.

Umm actually it's the testimony to the hypocricy of anti-war types who believe that if we go to war anywhere we have to go to war anywhere so the question is if you're opposed to the war in Iraq how the hell can you be in favor in a war with the Sudan?
