Darfur, why Genocide?
By Sue Bookman
Darfur is one of my passions, and some have even accused me of being obsessive. I may be, to a point. I do not spend all my earnings on Darfur. Occasionally I bring it up to the friends I think will hear me, but for the most part, it is featured prominently on my site. The links on my site point to charities that I feel are doing the most good, charities that I give to.
Darfur, by far is my torment. I want people to know how life is for the people who live there, if you can call rape, torture and death living. In the middle of the desert there is very little firewood and the walk to find it grows daily for the women of Darfur. Men would be killed immediately if they are seen outside of the camps so the duty of gathering firewood falls to the women. Waiting on the outskirts are the rebels and Janjaweed who attack these women constantly. Women are usually gang raped by these animals and when the women are found to have been raped they are shunned by their husbands and the family. When you think of rape, you think of the forced sex act of a man on a woman, but it is so much more than that. Sadly the men use their rifles to inflict as much damage as they can to the women. Some have shot rifles inside the vagina of the women. Many, many women have been ruptured and torn by the act and now have what are called "fistulas" which is the tearing of the walls between the rectum and vagina spilling excrement into the vagina which drains constantly. How can I not be obsessed with this going on. My heart and mind scream for the people of Darfur and I hope to tell the world to scream with me. These atrocities have to stop.
