by helping to protect the refugees in the camps right now would be a good first step. AU cannot do it all by themselves with 7,000 troops spread all over the country, and NATO troops could be a big help. these people are sitting ducks, exposed to government militias in these camps. that's what people are requesting: no invasion.

So you want us to go guard camps to keep the government out...

Well, the 7,000 troops could be re-deployed to the camps but as you know, the US cannot get involved without the UN so this is a UN issue.

Under what "pretext" would we go into the Sudan.



WMDs? A threat to America?

Sorry but our gov't does jump to the UN's shout.


What authority does our government have, or better yet what army do we send. With our forces already stretched to the point, where do we get the troops?



The Coast Guard?
