An Occasion to Swear

According to the United Nations, genocide has not occurred in the Darfur region of Sudan.

A genocide has not been committed in Darfur, a keenly awaited United Nations report says, according to Sudan's foreign minister.

If genocide was found to have taken place, signatories to a UN convention are legally obliged to act to end it.

The report has been given to UN Secretary General Kofi Annan who said it would be published shortly.

More than 70,000 people have been killed and two million forced to flee their homes in Darfur.

"We have a copy of that report and they didn't say there is a genocide," said Mustafa Osman Ismail.

Bullshit. Complete and total bullshit. This is precisely why the United Nations should be abandoned.
