What groups are involved in the Darfur conflict?
The region became the scene of a rebellion in 2003 against the Arab-dominated Sudanese government, with two local rebel groups - the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) and the Sudanese Liberation Army (SLA) - accusing the government of oppressing non-Arabs in favor of Arabs. The government was also accused of neglecting the Darfur region of Sudan. In response, the government mounted a campaign of aerial bombardment supporting ground attacks by an Arab militia, the Janjaweed. The government-supported Janjaweed were accused of committing major human rights violations, including mass killing, looting, and systematic rape of the non-Arab population of Darfur. They have frequently burned down whole villages, driving the surviving inhabitants to flee to refugee camps, mainly in Darfur and Chad; many of the camps in Darfur are surrounded by Janjaweed forces. By the summer of 2004, 50,000 to 80,000 people had been killed and at least a million had been driven from their homes, causing a major humanitarian crisis in the region.

The Darfur Conflict is an ongoing guerrilla conflict or civil war centered on the Darfur region of Sudan. In 2003, two Darfuri rebel movements- the Sudan Liberation Army and the Justice and Equality Movement took up arms against the Sudanese government, complaining about the marginalization of the area and the failure to protect sedentary people from attacks by nomads.

What is happening in Sudan?
There is a genocide, an enthnic cleansing if you will, still occurring in Darfur. Sparked from decades of famine, drought, and oppression it only gets worse as time goes on. With the rise of militia groups, the Sudanese government, in 2003, sent their own, well armed, well funded militia group to reek havoc in the area of Darfur.The Sudanese governments military is mainly funded by oil revenues, the countries major money maker. Over 70% of oil profits go to the military. This poses a problem to the people of Darfur, as the largest of these oil fields lies in South darfur, while the government is in the North. UN action has been rare as both China and Russia benefit from Sudanese oil, and both Russia and China are veto powers on the Security Council.450,000 people have been murdered, 2.5 million are hungry, and 4.5 are displaced.It is a crisis that is complicated, multi faceted, and complex.for more informatin, go to amnesty.org, i used this website while i wrote a research paper on the genocide in darfur. it's a great website!
What are the genocides in Sudan?
There's no genocide in Sudan, yet. Number of people who died in Sudan's Darfur is nothing compared to number of people who died in Congo, Iraq (more than 650,000 human beings) and Afghanistan (only god knows how many). Sudan's official language (mainly in the North) is Arabic. That makes the Sudanese people as Arab as the Indians and Nigerians are British!!! The conflict in Darfur is financed by external forces. The rebels' leaders live in five stars hotels in Paris, Rom, London, and Washington. The Sudanese government, as bad as you may think, has it's own resources for money and weapons. The question is: who pays the rebels to fight??? Why Darfur's conflict is all over the media, right after the end of the civil war between the North and the South??? Who benefits from instability in Sudan, and Africa???
