Here’s what they would do to us, if they were to get the chance.
...in Sudan Darfur we are fast moving past the time when the immediate crisis can be meaningfully addressed. The longer the warfare is allowed to continue, the more a next-few-months mass starvation scenario is locked into place by a combination of public health conditions, and logistics limits on delivering aid during the monsoon season when roads becom impassible. This deadly scenario, I believe, is exactly what the government of Sudan wants: Having cleared thousands of square miles and burned hundreds of villages of black Africans, it now hopes to starve the victims so they can never return to claim their land and reestablish their families. This, btw, is genocide. Not by freight cars and gas chambers, [this time] but by bands of terrorists on horseback supported by airborne gunships and bombers, village burning and murder, and finally, government-imposed mass starvation and illness.(Thanks to Glenn Reynolds)
