Darfur genocide survivors have protested the lack of protection in Darfur. It's time to show them they're not alone - and tell the Government that aid is not enough. A mandage from the UN to provide the AU with a peace-enforcement mandate is the only practical solution to save over a million lives that are currently at risk in Darfur, but Britain is doing nothing to achieve it.

The Dafur massacure was carried out by Muslims and as such readers of Indymedia can't support it. We want Muslims to be allowed to do anything they want. Only the Jew and Christians can be wrong

Stop

No support

I'm not prepared to support this protest until somebody can show me how a Neocon funded, Israeli backed, Christian group where in fact responsible.

Nice comment Sheep. The news wire does seem to be full of those attempting to link Israel to every problem in the world right now. I wonder why that is, what could be the motivation of those seeking to smear Israel at the moment ?

im sure the thousands of victims of the darfur massacres and their families will be warmed by your conscientious and heartfelt comments. if your're gonna wander around indymedia posting crap like this i reccomend you find the nearest cliff and jump off it. these people did not die so you could have something to laugh about and there is no mention of the israel in this post. get a conscience or kill yourselves

Squirrel - you are a disgrace. You have posted to IM and not been critical of Israel in any way. Rewrite your comments straight away.

The level of inteligence shown by all in the comments posted re: Jonathan Bowers plea is almost non existant. When are people going to wake up and realise, mass killing of any nationality or religious belief must be stopped. It is absolutley irrelevant to this rally that you collectively see Israel as bieng wrong in any way. It is utterly disgraceful that citizens of the U.K make such racist and unintelligent comments about a situation that they obviously don't know anything about.

DARFUR IS EVERYONES PROBLEM, REGARDLESS OF THIER RACE OR RELIGION.
