Five years after this declaration of genocide. where do we stand? What have we done? As many as 400.000 residents of Darfur have been killed. others brutally raped and tortured. entire villages torched. creating a refugee crisis that has forced more than 2 million Darfuris to flee their homes. This photo is almost surreal. As often described. people who have flown over the Darfur region say it looks as if people have put cigarettes outthe types of burns that you see. The burns. of course. represent huts in villages that have been destroyed. This is a part of Sudan after the Sudanese Government and allied militia forces recently burned a village. Hundreds of thousands of women and children live in refugee camps in Darfur and Chad. I dont think this photo does justice to the camp. but what appear to be tiny white dots are. in fact. small tents. a sea of small tents. There are 90.000 people who live in the Kalma refugee camp in Darfurno grass. no trees. 10 reported rapes every single day. The people in camps like this one in Kalma are dependent on us. the entire international community. for the basics--food. water. and shelter. It is nothing short of a humanitarian catastrophe.
