I think we should start a large campaign to host Darfuri refugees in this country. Sponsor a family--in one's own home, as a community, whatever it takes.

Allow Samantha Powers full reign to navigate the political process needed to pressure the Khartoum leadership and cabinet and Janjaweed to cease and desist in Darfur. She knows what to do ... give her what she needs to get the job done.

Please let's not ruin the cause of Darfur with comments about Palestine, there is no genocide in Israel. The people of Darfur have never been agressors, and as in Rwanda the people are innocent victims. Genocide cannot be tolerated, and the obligation of all, including the UN should be to stop genocide whenever they see it. People should be free to exist in whatever skins they were born, and should be able to live in peace and not be persecuted because of religion, race or peaceful beliefs.

lets not wait for a moving movie like Hotel Rwanda, Shindler's List or The Power of One to bring the world awareness regarding Darfur.

I'm so happy that you confirmed my account,
Please keep the good work you are doing for the people of Darfur.for they are sorely tried ,brutalised and humilated and murdered by a murderous regime of Albashir.

I'm glad to see that ALL ideas are being taken seriously, even if they didn't finish in the top ten. The fact that we have been restored our oportunity to participate in the government of our country is absolutely fantastic! This is a good time for America and the World!
