No room for dithering, ambiguity, or disingenuousness The Sudan Tribune, January 30, 2010 http://www.sudantribune.com/spip.php?article33952 African Press International, January 29, 2010 Eric Reeves Fri, 29 Jan 2010 11:39:04 -0600 http://www.sudanreeves.org/Article254.html Amidst the various comments and commentary arguing that war is over in Darfur, that there are only remnants of previous violence in the form of “ very low-intensity” conflict, several recent reports suggest that human security and humanitarian assistance are deeply imperiled. The gradual shift in international attention to the crises in Southern Sudan and Sudan’s national elections, while perhaps inevitable, has worked to obscure the immense dangers that continue to confront civilians throughout Darfur.

In turn, the prospect of an aborted or compromised Southern self-determination referendum (January 2011) looms ever closer, with the potential to trigger unfathomable destruction.

US Special Envoy Gration gives more disheartening evidence of ignorance and disingenuousness. Withdrawals and curtailment of aid by humanitarian organizations continue.
