The genocide in Sudan is appalling

[cabotnn22]

Since April of 2023, over 61000 Sudanese have died and millions are currently facing starvation. There is a lot of horror in the world.

Also, it is disheartening to see very little mention of what's happening to the Druze, Kurds, and Christians in Syria. I saw a video this morning of two women and a baby being abducted. The Syrian militants made the woman show her hands, which were bloody. The slaughtered the men in her family.

This has been going on for over nearly two years: the slaughter of the Druze, Kurds, Christians, and Sudanese. There is way too much evil in the world.

Besieged Sudan city residents face starvation, UN warns

The UN's food agency has warned that families trapped within the besieged Sudanese city of el-Fasher face starvation.

The World Food Programme (WFP) said it had not been able to deliver food to the city in the western Darfur region by road for more than a year.

El-Fasher has been surrounded by paramilitary fighters from the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) for nearly 16 months - determined to seize it from Sudan's army.

The WFP warning comes as local activists have already begun reporting deaths by starvation in the city, which is still home to about 300,000 people.

1. The world needs more visibility into this.

Thanks for sharing. We are still far too quick to resort to violence and killing.

2. Exactly

I saw some videos from Sudan and it was so incredibly sad - and it seems like it is virtually ignored.

3. K&R

The world’s (and DU’s) focus remains solely fixated on the Jews though, despite this horrific catastrophe in Sudan (and Yemen) that deserves equal attention.

5. Indeed. I'd referenced

Darfur about a week ago in a discussion relating to '21 century atrocities,' itself a genocide of far greater proportions and one that had been ongoing for quite some time, yet seemingly has escaped the world's notice (and for various reasons, I think).

6. It's heartbreaking

I knew things were horrible in Sudan - but I didn't realize how horrible the situation is.

7. But for the Grace of God, there goes all of us

So much evil in the world rolling along unabated

I have no solution just observing sadly.

8. Wasn't that what the United Nations was invented for? What's up with that?

9. Is it wrong for me to say

The lack of coverage for a lot of these situations has to do with the fact that they aren't white?
