Sudan is no longer at the top of the world's priority list.
We were all so quick to donate after the tsunami. Why do we seem to have abundant empathy for people who suffer so cruelly at the hands of mother nature, but not when it is at the hands of their fellow man?
I am currently trying to read Gen. Romeo Dallaire's book, Shake Hands with the Devil. I say "trying", because it's the most emotionally difficult book I've ever picked up. I don't want to be reading a similar book in another 10 years time, but I am afraid I may.
