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.

Our history has shown how our indifference cost us our humanity when we sit back and watch the genocide of a culture.

We must do all we can. What would you want others to do if it were our children?

You talk about human rights in Iraq as justification for the war, but ignore the pleas of the Darfur people. Why?

when we look at the children we are failing in this region think of our own children and how scared they would be surviving what we find unimaginable. Noone to cuddle and no special smell of home all things we take for granted lets help now!

I've sent a letter to Tony Blair and recently received a reply on his behalf...they are surprisingly doing more than we think...they're just keeping quiet about it. I received a 2 pages and 1/2 of writing.

As a pacifist I hesitated to sign this petition as I don't believe in having armies at all, but whilst we have them let's use them to help stem this humanitarian disaster

No-one deserves this, it is appalling. I send love and peace and prayers to all the people in this country and hope that you and other heads of government will send practical help to this country.
