Darfur is a country in Africa that is in absolute ruins at this exact moment in time. People are being systematically terminated everyday because of a differing belief system. A revolution broke out a couple of years ago with the attempt to overthrow the oppressive government that was in place in the country. When word of such a revolt broke out the people in power set up a secret police force much like Hitler and Stalin did to get rid of the problem. This started with the police killing off anyone that was apart of the revolution but has gone much farther since then. The revolutionary leaders sought a hide out in the villages so the response was the systematic killing of everyone in the villages to completely wash out all opposition to the government. The easiest way to deal with opposition to something is to get rid of it completely. The problem this is definitely a problem because a genocide is being committed in our lifetime and should not be able to do so. Genocide’s has been a problem before and western countries need to act faster this time than they did earlier on in history.
