Dar-what?

 I read an article on BBC.com today about Israel’s decision to turn away Darfur refugees. It was a sad article as this development comes in year four of the Darfur conflict – and I’m not sure many people even know there’s something going on between the rebels and pro-government militias.  The conflict, residing mostly in Western Sudan, began after the rebels attacked government targets saying their communities were being discriminated against in favor of Arabs. If you want to know more there is a very comprehensive summary of reference articles listed to the right of the story.
