Crisis in Darfur

There are Muslim extremists in the Sudan who are killing anyone who isn’t like them. Men, women, and children alike are being killed because they are different. About 2.7 million people have gone missing because of the Darfur crisis. One of the main techniques they use in the war in Darfur is systematic rape, which many argue shows the intent for Genocide. Most of the agencies that were thrown out last year by President Bashir were those working to stop the sexual abuse and assault of young girls and women. By removing these groups that were caring for or protecting these women from rape and sexual assault, the government seems to be trying to either cover it up or they’re inadvertently saying that they don’t really care. This problem is all over the Sudan but the worst of it is in Darfur. If this isn’t stopped it could turn into another Holocaust or another more diluted version of the Crusades.
