I generally give kudos to the BBC for providing comprehensive coverage of the genocidal campaign of the Muslim government in Sudan and its Arab militia proxies against the county’s Black African population… until recently. Some editor at the Beeb seems to have decided that articles regarding Darfur must contain a disclaimer as to who is at fault for the “conflict:”
The conflict began in early 2003, when a rebellion by local groups triggered a counter-offensive by the army and government-backed Arab militias.
So, let’s get this straight: Because Sudan’s Black African Christian and indigenous believers, uncomfortable with having Sharia forced down their throats, brought genocide on themselves? Did they also bring this upon themselves?
Aid agencies have withdrawn 250 workers this month, leaving many in Darfur vulnerable.
Also conspicuously absent from the BBC’s coverage is the word “Muslim.”
