In Focus: Another Darfur?

"Another Darfur?" aired as the In Focus piece on Foreign Exchange with Fareed Zakaria.

As the world watches Darfur to the West, government harassments in East Sudan have forced hundreds of thousands from their homes. Eastern rebels complain that successive governments in Khartoum have left their region under-developed, while exploiting its natural resources. Christopher Milner's report brings back some of the first video footage of the humanitarian crisis within the rebel held territories of East Sudan.

This report is part of Pulitzer Center-sponsored project "Another Darfur" (http://bit.ly/t0vkBF) by Christopher Milner.

I wish that G.W. spent half the money from the war on IRAQ for Sudan. Things would probably look much better for the people of Darfur.

@klutstjerauw your a twat? spent half of the money in sudan than in iraq ! for real this got to be the most stupidest statements ever? of course george bush and his crunies havent killed over a million people and displaced thousands? in places like iraq and afghanistan where the people have suffered even worse than in previous regmies?, better for the people? seriously sudan would have been a shithole

[howzindahouse]

Seriously? sudan has enough of its own problems but my sick and tired of the media persistant views of sudan as being a country in war and a country thats in tatters why dont you come and see darfur now its much better than it was 5 years?, the south of sudan yes theirs a bit of tribal warfair but still peaceful than a decade ago?, and khartoum and has much the oil has helped the people of sudan not some bullshit report on a region that no gives too shits about.

In 2001 I was able to hire some Sudanese

'lost boys' who came to U.S. through the U.N.

Upon learning that one of the boys was trying to earn enough money to buy his mother back from slavery, I was inspired to write the song

'Dark Rain' (see youtube video under two worlds connect) I thank you for all that you have done to expose what is happening in Sudan

and if you have a benefit in Souther Cdalifornia it would be an honor for my band to play.

Ed, Mgr. of the band 'Two Worlds Connect'

In order to obtain the Chinese government in the Sudan's economic interests in the Sudan to support the Government of the Sudan Darfur to provide weapons to suppress the black. Many Chinese people on the matter do not know, we can see that the Chinese Government for the control of nationals of the right to know how strictly. China supports the Government of the Sudan Government to stop engaging massacre! ! ! !
