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 authorized 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 Chancellor Andrea Merkel that Germans are watching, and that we refuse to let the atrocities in Darfur continue.
We signed the “Tell Chancellor Merkel: Stop the Darfur Genocide Now” petition!

Our World today has progressed to the point that no matter where you looked you see only war, hunger and hate. It is time to learn once again to take a stand against men seeking power and wealth through the suffering and Genocide of not only Dafur but everywhere. Please start by representing the German people in the stand against this problem-

To do nothing while knowing people are being killed is the same as if we did the killing ourselves . There is no such thing as an innocent by stander . Out of sight out of mind does not exist any more in this world of present day communications .
