May I suggest an even sharper focus? We are out of time. THE ONLY HOPE FOR DARFUR: WE-THE-PEOPLE. Duh. It is said that the mark of truly being “crazy� is expecting different results from doing the same thing over and over and… Ok, we needed to try some new approaches, hoping we could find a new formula for mass social change (stopping Genocide has NEVER been done. N-E-V-E-R); looking for one that would be comfortable, convenient, safe, executed from our computer terminal / phone and TV in some combination. The variations we’ve tried are: * Blame - UN, EU, AU, Bush, Congress. * Emails / Blogs / Letters / Phone calls / Post cards / 1-day-fasts (yawn; oh, excuse me) / an occasional 3 hour demonstration (with entertainment). * Letting the Nonprofits do it - SaveDarfur.org, AfricaAction.org, GenocideIntervention.net. * Divestment. And the results are in. WE ARE NOT, N O T STOPPING THE GENOCIDE!!!!!!!!! You mean that the answer for Darfur is the same answer we found for… * Ending the Vietnam War * Gaining Civil Rights in the US * Gaining Women the right to Vote in the US * Ending apartheid in South Africa * Throwing off the British oppression at our start....???? Yup. OK. We looked for another way. NOW, let the blame for the Genocide rest with us. WE-THE-PEOPLE. Let the END OF GENOCIDE BE BROUGHT BY US. No one else, nothing else can stop it, can save 4,000,000 in Concentration Camps in Sudan and Chad. The buck stops with WE-THE-PEOPLE. Let’s do it. Let’s get out of the blame game - Bush, Congress, UN, EU, AU, Bashir.... Let’s stop talking and start - marching, demonstrating, sitting-in, hunger striking… UNTIL DARFUR GENOCIDE STOPS. The next step is September 17th (SaveDarfur.org; DayForDarfur.org). The worldwide events must be an earsplitting mandate to the “governing bodies� that we demand, we mandate, we support nothing less than immediate end to the Genocide. “Do what it takes, but, FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION. Do what we hired you to do, or make room for those who will.� BUT, then we need to be ready on SEPTEMBER 18th, 19th… AS LONG AS IT TAKES, WHATEVER IT TAKES from us to end this, NOW.
