It’s been one month since Hillary Clinton told the Senate:
“We have spoken about other options, no-fly zones, other sanctions and sanctuaries, looking to deploy the UNAMID force to try to protect the refugees but also to repel the militias…there is a lot under consideration.”
We understand that policy planning is a living, ongoing process. But in light of the urgent need to respond to GENOCIDE, one month is a good deal of time for crafting sensible and actionable foreign policy.
We are anxisiouly waiting for a comprehensive Sudan policy from the Obama administration. Khartoum hasn’t stopped bombing Darfuri civilians. Arguably the only thing that will make it stop is if it starts to recognize and absorb serious consequences for its continued violence. This includes (but isn’t limited to) the imposition of targeted multilateral sanctions against Khartoum’s top leaders.
