BBC reports some interesting decisions by the ICC regarding Darfur, the world's worst humanitarian crisis according to the United Nations. Two years of conflict, estimated 180,000 dead and 2M have fled their homes - and political wrangling over what to call this conflict - genocide or not - has really crippled international response.
BBC has also provided some Q&A, so check this out if you're interested in reading more about the conflict. If you're interested in something more comprehensive, they also have a comprehensive site.
The situation worsens. Lack of food and water and the harrassment and arrests of aid workers by the Sudanese government can cause further starvation. It's urgent but what else do we need to speed up this bureaucratic nightmare?
