So… Yeah, Sudan

One of the anonymous authors of the blog Darfur, Sudan, Africa: The Passion of the Present is deeply pessimistic:

The New York Times has yet another excellent article on the genocide—but what difference does it make? We are participating in the world’s first post-modern genocide—where the whole world watches, argues over details of coverage, and takes no action. This has been going on for 18 months in Darfur, and a decade or more in southern Sudan.

If you haven’t seen this blog before, now’s the time to tune in. It’s sort’ve freakishly good and deep and complete. A bummer that it’s penned anonymously, but oh well. Check it out.
