Darfur

Eric Reeves, a professor at Smith college who wrote an excellent overview of the Darfur situation in July has an update. Apparently big business triumphs over all:

The same vicious cabal in Khartoum that was explicitly declared by former Secretary of State Colin Powell to be responsible for genocide in Darfur has now been allowed to secure the services of a former State Department employee to provide it with p.r. counsel. For a fee of $530,000 per year, the firm's role will essentially be to put a happy face on a genocidal regime.

Blech. Look: Fox is reporting that Scooter Libby will the the only one indicted today. Of course I'm disappointed, but let's face it: Karl Rove is nothing compared to the Janjaweed.
