Tell Prime Minister Blair: Stop the Darfur Genocide Now
Target: Tony Blair, Prime MinisterSponsored by: Save Darfur Coalition
The tragedy in Darfur has reached a critical moment. Already millions of Darfuris - driven from their homes - are completely dependent on international aid for food, medicine and shelter. But due to escalating violence, much of that aid can no longer reach those who need it most.
A UN peacekeeping force remains the only hope to bring peace to the region.
But the peacekeeping force - already authorised by the UN Security Council - might never make it to Darfur if the Sudanese government doesn’t agree to let it in. That's why it's so important that our world leaders ramp up the pressure and demand that the peacekeepers are admitted.
Now is the time to remind Prime Minister Tony Blair that Britains are watching, and that we refuse to let the atrocities in Darfur continue.

Genocide is an evil crime that must never be tolerated or brushed aside in the name of Politics or Religion. The civilised coutries of the World MUST make a stand against any acts of this kind.

Each day, the 2.5 million people who were chased from their homes in this region of Sudan face the threat of starvation, disease, and assault. And the few who remain in their homes risk displacement, torture, and murder.

What is happening there is a crime against humanity. It is to our shame that we can allow such things to happen without protest. It is an even greater shame on the politicians who supposedly represent us and are better placed to actually do something. No excuses.

If we can send our forces into Iraq for 'humanitarian reasons,' surely we can send our forces to protect the people in Darfur from genocide.

These evil acts are against all the rules of human decency. If our government can justify war in Iraq on the basis of dealing with evil dictators (when the weapons of mass destruction argument failed), then let them show their true worth in concerns for human life by doing what the UK goverment has to do if it has any decency left. STOP THE GENOCIDE.
