According to genocideintervention.net, "The United Resistance Front, a newly formed umbrella group for five rebel factions, took control of a government base in response to alleged attacked by the Sudanese army and Janjaweed militias on Nov. 19.

Sudanese president Omar al-Bashir called on the Popular Defence Forces 'to open training camps and to gather mujahadeen not for the sake of war but to be ready for anything,' which groups such as the Sudan Liberation Movement took as a declaration of war."

SaveDarfur.org states, "Rebels on Saturday demanded Beijing pull its peacekeepers out of Darfur, just hours after a unit of Chinese army engineers flew into the Sudanese region.

'We oppose them coming because China is not interested in human rights. It is just interested in Sudan's resources. We are calling on them to quit Sudan, especially the petroleum areas.'"

----------------------

Monthly Summary:

Tensions remain strong in the Sudan as natives are unsure of the trustworthiness of supporting nations. Some Darfurians claim that nations such as China are sending aid only to protect their personal interests such as oil. They will not accept help from countries that supply arms to al-Bashir's government in Khartoum.

Darfur has been embroiled in a deadly conflict for over 3 years [brought on by the Sudanese government].


At least 400,000 people have been killed;


More than 2 million innocent civilians have been forced to flee their homes and now live in displaced-persons camps in Sudan or in refugee camps in neighboring Chad;


More than 3.5 million men, women, and children are completely reliant on international aid for survival.


Not since the Rwandan genocide of 1994 has the world seen such a calculated campaign of displacement, starvation, rape, and mass slaughter.
