U.S. Backs African War Criminal

The Boston Globe's Stupid Ideas: White Man's Burden

Of course, when Israel's war criminals go anywhere there are no such concerns in the racist, Muslim-hating Zionist press.

Nor are such concerns raised about AmeriKa's war criminals. We got one on the continent right now (the Pakistan missile strikes
indict you, sir, as well as the Afghanistan escalation and the "Al-CIA-Duh" kool aid you drank)!

"Sudan leader welcomed at Arab summit" by Associated Press | March 30, 2009

DOHA, Qatar - Qatar's leader embraced Sudan's president in a red-carpet welcome yesterday as he arrived to attend an Arab summit in his most brazen act of defiance against an international arrest warrant on charges of war crimes in Darfur.

Notice how Israel's leaders are never defiant -- that is, if you can find a war crimes accusation in the Zionist War Daily.

For host Qatar - a key US ally that is home to American warplanes and more than 5,000 US troops - the Arab League meeting beginning today also showcases its desire to stake out a prominent role in regional affairs even at the risk of angering the West.

Then LET'S LEAVE!!

I mean, if the U.S has any principles left at all, we need to leave Qatar!

Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir had promised to attend the 22-nation gathering after assurances from members they would not enforce the International Criminal Court's arrest order issued March 4. But his lavish arrival sent an apparent message that Bashir will have a center stage role at the two-day meeting.

Why should they enforce U.N. rules when the U.N. only uses them as a weapon against Arabs and Africans -- while IGNORING ISRAEL'S INCREASINGLY LONG LIST of VIOLATIONS (also note the subtle dig at the summit by the joosmedia)!?

Wearing a traditional Sudanese robe and white turban, a smiling Bashir was greeted at the airport with an embrace and kiss by Qatar's emir. They later had coffee with the head of the Arab League, Amr Moussa. It was a low-risk trip for al-Bashir with high symbolic value for his Arab backers, who argue that carrying out the ICC's arrest would further destabilize Sudan as the Darfur conflict between the Arab-led government and ethnic African rebels enters its seventh year.

Only Jordan and two other tiny Arab League members, the Comoros and Djibouti, are party to the ICC charter, but can take no action on Qatari soil. Arab foreign ministers have endorsed a draft resolution for the summit rejecting the ICC's arrest warrant.

Why not? Israel can reject war crimes charges, so why not the African?

What's good for the goose is good for the gander!

"Hub activist meets with President Obama on Darfur

The Rev. Gloria White-Hammond of Boston was among activists who huddled yesterday with President Obama, members of Congress, and his special envoy to Sudan, General Scott Gration, ahead of Gration's first trip to the war-torn nation.

Hammond, a retired pediatrician, has been focusing on the humanitarian crisis in Darfur, which the US State Department has declared a genocide. She is board chairman for the Save Darfur Coalition, whose president, Jerry Fowler, also attended the meeting.

Afterward, Obama said the Sudan crisis is worsening and he hopes Gration can persuade President Omar al-Bashir's government to allow aid groups back in the country to "avert an enormous humanitarian crisis." "Even as we're dealing with that immediate issue, we can't take our eyes off the longstanding conflicts in Sudan that have resulted in all of these persons being displaced," Obama said.

So when you sending in the troops?

Fowler said his coalition was "reassured" of Obama's commitment on the issue and said that Gration must tell Sudanese officials that they now face a "fundamental choice."

Sounds like a BUSH, 'er, OBAMA ULTIMATUM, doesn't it? Some change!

"They must choose between continuing policies which have thrown the lives of millions of Sudanese civilians on the fire and have placed Sudan on a path toward greater international isolation, or reversing those policies and reconciling with an international community whose support for Bashir, and thus for Sudan, will only grow weaker as time passes," Fowler said in a statement.

I think ISRAEL could also USE that type of ADVICE!!!!!!!
