But, in Sudan, while the killing has slowed dramatically, those who perpetrated the massacres remain in control of the country, able to toy with the fate of survivors in the cruelest possible manner. Sudan's leaders continue to impede a fair peace settlement, most recently by obstructing Darfuri political representatives from attending peace talks in Addis Ababa. And, in the wake of the indictment of Sudanese President Omar Bashir by the International Criminal Court, the government expelled numerous international aid groups, making the already precarious existence of displaced Darfuris that much worse. Call this situation what you want--the awful aftermath of an unresolved genocide; the second, less violent phase of a bid by Khartoum to punish ethnic groups that supported the rebellion launched in 2003--but, whatever you label Darfur in 2009, it is still a terrible catastrophe.]]>tag:canada.com,2009-06-03:story.html?id=ae9cec88-881d-4aa4-b5bd-9034dc38c825&k=49782<![CDATA[Dispatch From Cairo: What The Muslim Brotherhood Wants From Obama]]>http://blogs.tnr.com/tnr/blogs/the_plank/archive/2009/06/02/the-muslim-brotherhood-invited.aspxMichael CrowleyWed, 03 Jun 2009 05:00:00 GMTtag:canada.com,2009-06-03:http://blogs.tnr.com/tnr/blogs/the_plank/archive/2009/06/02/the-muslim-brotherhood-invited.aspx<![CDATA[Why Sonia Sotomayor Came Out Okay Despite the Height of the Building She Grew Up In]]>http://blogs.tnr.com/tnr/blogs/mcwhorter/archive/2009/06/02/why-sonia-sotomayor-came-out-okay-despite-the-height-of-the-building-she-grew-up-in.aspxJohn McWhorterWed, 03 Jun 2009 05:00:00 GMTtag:canada.com,2009-06-03:http://blogs.tnr.com/tnr/blogs/mcwhorter/archive/2009/06/02/why-sonia-sotomayor-came-out-okay-despite-the-height-of-the-building-she-grew-up-in.aspx<![CDATA[Hugo Chavez Ruined My Weekend!]]>http://tnr.com/politics/story.html?id=3089ebe5-a5fb-4277-89a2-37d57ae04846Alvaro Vargas LlosaWed, 03 Jun 2009 05:00:00 GMTtag:canada.com,2009-06-03:story.html?id=3089ebe5-a5fb-4277-89a2-37d57ae04846&k=10865<![CDATA[A Time To Kill: Why Is Anti-Abortion Violence At An All-Time High When Radical Pro-Life Activism Is On The Decline?]]>http://tnr.com/politics/story.html?id=409ed7ae-76fa-411c-9720-618215852f11Jon A.
