As the press and television stations dedicated to this little genocide, to say nothing of their programs, I try, as far as I can, to amplify the news. Reports directly from the site www.peacereporter.com: PARTIES IN CONFLICT
2003-present: the two armed groups of the Sudan Liberation Army (SLA) and Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) rebel against the regime of President Omar al-Bashir , according to them guilty of not doing enough for the population darfurina, allowed to live in appalling conditions in one of the poorest regions of the country. In autumn 2006, the two rebel groups agreed to join forces and create the National Redemption Front (NRF). In contrast the
Sudanese government is alleged to support, mainly through aerial bombardment, the Janjaweed Arab militias responsible for attacks against the civilian population of Darfur.
VICTIMS
The budget is 300 000 deaths (5000 seconds the Sudanese government), 200 000 refugees fled to Chad and a half million internally displaced persons. In addition, several testimonies of people, observers and aid workers spoke of camp where the guerrillas and civilians are kidnapped and tortured or killed, and where women suffer rape. Although the rebels were guilty of atrocities against the civilian population.
resource contention
The territory of Darfur, with an area equal to that France is the main resource contention between the parties in conflict. The main motivation of the conflict are the people's demands darfurine, who want more decision-making power and greater attention to the development of the region by the Khartoum Partei. Complicating the picture came the recent discovery of oil in the region that have attracted the interest of the international community and members of the UN Security Council.
SUPPLY ARMS
Iran, China, Russia, Belarus and some companies Lithuanian, Ukrainian and English were among the main suppliers of arms of the Government of Sudan (and consequently of the Janjaweed militia), according to Amnesty International.
We suspect instead that the United States, Israel and Eritrea to support these two rebel SLA and JEM.
CURRENT
Two and a half years since the outbreak of civil war in Darfur continues to be the scene of a political and humanitarian crisis that is worsening day by day.
Initially the testimonies of refugees and survivors of the few news agencies, reports sent and reports of observers and experts had to think of a genocide carried out carefully by the government's pro-Arab Sudanese against the African people who live in Darfur (the Fur, Massalit, Zaghawa and other minorities).
The use of this term to define the crisis in Darfur is a key aspect of the whole affair: If The United Nations recognizes in western Sudan a plan that involves the destruction of an entire ethnic group, racial or religious group, would be forced to intervene militarily, which has not yet happened.
The attempts at dialogue between the Sudanese government and Darfur rebels have so far been characterized by a series of broken promises and failures. The conflicting parties have met once in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa, and on several occasions in the Nigerian capital Abuja. Just in Abuja in May 2006 was reached a peace agreement, but only accepted by the Sudanese government and a faction of the SLA. Consequently, the situation on the ground is even worse, since fighting between the Janjaweed and rebels, have been joined between the two factions of the SLA.
From October 2006 have again stepped up attacks by Janjaweed and rebel against the local population. Testimonies of militants who have defected confirm the close ties between Khartoum and the Janjaweed, the Sudanese government bonds continues to deny. The Janjaweed militias are also active in Chad, where trespass regularly to hunt down the rebels, or hit populations living in refugee camps.
In Darfur there is a force of 7000 men of the African Union, poorly equipped and perennially short of funds. The UN has approved the deployment in the region of a quota of 20 000 UN peacekeepers, which, however, the Khartoum government opposes. The support given by the Chinese government to prevent Sudan to the United Nations to adopt sanctions against the government.
