so it's from an American reference, but this arguably lies more at Europe's feet than Washington's given the Festung Europa attitude that's  beginning to take root in Europe.

Thanks for drawing attention to Sudan.

"arguably lies more at Europe's feet than Washington's"

I agree. We Europeans should do something about it.
However, I can't resist making a comment at the Christian Right in the US. They were making a big fuss about some kind of "war against Christmas," but don't care much about the wars during Christmas, like Darfur, Uganda and others.

Having said that, Europeans don't care much about refugees either. Most only get concerned when Festung Europe seems to be under attack...

It's not just Europe too, there's a rank racism here on the part Arab nations, with Morocco this can be chalked up to being Europe's policeman, but in Cairo this isn't the case.

"Operation Track Down Blacks"?

My god are they insane?

Absolutely true about the "Christian" Right, do you know about Pat Robertson and Liberia?
