***i would like say that as the editor/maker of this myspace i have nothing to do with the making of the Instant Karma CD; this music space came to be to exposes the Album and help make it a best seller since all profits go to this Cause(Darfur) the space is a way to promote awareness about the issue, methods for a solution and ways to help the helping organizations. ***The situation in the Sudanese region of Darfur is often referred to as one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world. It is also a deeply complicated situation involving tensions between the Sudanese government and rebel militias; nomadic herders and farmers; and Darfurians of Arab descent and those of African descent. Since rebels attacked military sites three years ago, militias on horseback known as Janjaweed have brutally attacked civilians – killing villagers, burning villages, and raping women in calculated attacks that have been called genocidal. The Janjaweed are believed to be backed by the Sudanese government.
Estimates of the number of people killed in Darfur over the past three years range from 180,000 to as high as 400,000. Over 200,000 Darfurians have sought refuge in the eastern part of neighboring Chad, and more than 2 million people have been internally displaced, many gathered into crowded camps with limited basic services.. The conflict has recently spilled over to neighboring Chad, where refugee camps there have been attacked by armed militias.It's been more than four years since the violence began in Darfur. Over 400,000 innocent men, women and children have been killed and more than 2.5 million people have been driven from their homes. Millions more face death, rape, torture, and disease.
The Save Darfur Coalition is an alliance of over 175 faith-based, advocacy and humanitarian organizations whose mission is to raise public awareness about the ongoing genocide in Darfur and to mobilize a unified response to the atrocities that threaten the lives of more than two million people in the Darfur region. The Save Darfur Coalition has launched a PSA campaign to raise awareness of the crisis in Darfur and increase the pressure on world leaders to act. Please help us seize this opportunity to remind our leaders and the American public that the "genocide" is still raging and to help finally put a stop to these atrocities before more lives are lost.
