The tragic events that continually unfold in Sudan (like the events in Rwanda a decade since) are, the world must acknowledge, genocidal in their scope, in their intent, in their effect. For all intents and purposes, the world has acknowledged these facts; and yet the world has stood by, continues to stand by and watch it happen. One is tempted to observe, bitterly, that genocide has become a spectator sport --- but spectator sports garner far more attention, and indeed far more money.
