The New Republic: Darfur

Last week's issue of The New Republic was entirely devoted to Darfur, including a stark front-cover editorial that begins with: "Never again? What nonsense. Again and again is more like it. In Darfur, we are witnessing a genocide again, and again we are witnessing ourselves witnessing it and doing nothing to stop it." This is a powerful piece, and worth taking a long look at.

On a related note, check out today's New York Times which reports on an encouraging Security Council resolution that puts some teeth into the U.N. peacekeeping role.
