When will Darfur’s nightmare end?

AT the end of 2004, more than 18 months after the fighting began, one of the members of our Amnesty International group visited the Darfur region of Sudan to give advice to an international NGO about addressing the issue of rape and sexual violence in the war.

Since then our group has joined with many others in campaigning for justice in Darfur, for the Sudanese government to end its genocidal aggression towards the people of Darfur and for the international community to act decisively to prevent further murder and mayhem.

Sadly, it feels that all this campaigning has been in vain.
