I've heard about the terrible things happening in Dufar. It really makes your heart break. Yes, America is in a war now but that doesn't mean we shouldn't help other countries who really need it. Besides the majority of Americans including myself are against this war. This war on terror is a such a waste of time. George Bush has wasted some much money on this war. So many young adults have paid with their lives over his mistake of sending American troops in battle. Dufar is something really worth fighting for. We should be over there. I would fully support that war. Yes, America has it's issues to deal with as well. Health care, Immigration, Abortion, and Same Sex Marriage. But those problems are almost pathetic compared to Dufar. It's almost insulting to bring that up.

I'm a bit ignorant when it comes to other countries and their poltics. So has any country really stepped up to the plate on the issue of Dufar?



And thank you DecimatedDreamer13 for that link. I always want to help out in way that I can and this is just a small easy way everyone can participate in.

it makes me so sick to read your guys comments. i live in africa, and let me tell you sumthing.

ilovegerardway2much : you blame africa for not helping you guys in your war? that's disturbing! you guys a fighting a war... for what? oil? your own country's wealth?

in africa ppl are dying of AIDS, dying of poverty, raped by their cousins and sold by their parents. and it's real. for you guys it's something you see on TV, on CNN or Oprah. For me it's reality. Although I come from a wealthy family, I know ppl who's actually each day trying to survive. Our housemaid, for example, who lives in a cottage at the back of our home, goes home over the weekends to a little shack made out of carton and rocks, her eldest son (around 17) has to cook for his brothers and sisters during the week... her 15 year old daughter is pregnant... DO YOU EXCEPT THESE PEOPLE TO GO AND SUPPORT YOUR WAR?! WHAT TO THEY CARE? You sit in your beautiful apartment with electricity, pepsi in the fridge and MTV and critize these african ppl for not supporting your president's war?! You gotta be fucking kidding me.

anyways, to all you other guys: just cause greenday is singing bout it on TV you think you know bout genocides? ever heard bout a country called zimbabwe?

i dare you- i urge you to google "zimbabwe". dafur is heaven placed next to zimbabwe. life expectancy in zimbabwe is 35, and an estimated 3,4 million Zimbabweans — a quarter of the population — had fled to south africa by mid 2007... imagine that.

tell these people, who's got to illegaly hide in airplanes or run over the boarder just to get out of their country, to fight in your stupid war.

you make me vomit you sick fucking snob. are you fighting in the war?!
