To encourage people to take action, it is important that they understand what is occurring in Darfur. The Sudanese government is incredibly corrupt, and uses horrible tactics against the non-Arabian African tribes in Darfur. Some of these tactics are:
  •  use of mass starvation and mass forcible displacement as a weapon 
  • obstructing humanitarian aid
  • harassment of displaced persons
  • bombing of civilian sites, hospitals, clinics, and schools
  • use of rape as a weapon 
  • pitting ethnic groups against each other, causing huge loss of civilian life 
  • training and supporting ethnic militias who commit human rights violations 
  • destruction of culture 
  • enslavement of women and children 
  • failure to implement peace agreements 
It is terrible that a government, that should be taking care of its people, and providing necessities for it citizen, is instead supporting destructive and violent groups, and is supporting the slaughter of hundreds and the displacement of millions.
