ok, so people are being killed by the hundreds of thousands in Darfur by arab mercinaries funded by the Sudanese government. Called a Genocide by officials. The US isn't playing world police in this case, but no snide Europeans or the UN gives a shit or doing anything about it. Does human rights enforcement fall on the shoulders of the scapegoat or is the UN and international that apathetic and that in need of reform?
thoughts?

The UN can do nothing. Just like in Rwanda, it can only act as a neutral observer. Peacekeepers wear uniforms, have rank, and carry firearms, but they cannot actually use force.
The only thing the Security Council on the UN cares about is the Iran missile issue, not Darfur. Unfortunately. Its kinda sad when a possible problem is worse than an actual crisis happening in Darfur.

Ah, but not EVERYONE doesn't care. Hell, tomorrow there's a big rally in DC to protest the government's inaction. Will you be there?

point though is that when US isn't doing something, the rest of the world just doesn't seem to care. The UN nor any of the other western nations did shit about Rawanda either. the whiny EU talks a lot about human rights and doing the right thing, but doesn't actually DO anything
