One of the great, unspoken truths about the ongoing genocide in Darfur is that it is taking place to a large degree because of the support that China is giving the rogue Sudanese regime, both from an economic as well as a military standpoint. Well, China is scheduled to host the Olympics in Beijing in just over a year's time, and as such, it is susceptible to political pressure because of the importance the communist government has placed on these games: http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601039&refer=columnist_pesek&sid=ak4otZL4l5ow.
I'm curious to see how this will play out, but I am not overly optimistic about how the world will react. The West in general seems far more concerned about dozens of Palestinian dead thand it does about tens of thousands of African Christian dead in Darfur.......................
