ARTICLE: China to Send Military Unit to Darfur, By Edward Cody, Washington Post, May 8, 2007

China stepping up. This is so much better than shaming Beijing into withdrawal. we want them to show responsibility on the ground, not disengage or reduce Sudan's meager current connectivity to the global economy.

That's the best way to transform the "genocide Olympics" (Western, do-nothing, know-nothing hypocisy at it's worst) into something better--like China-the-emerging-SysAdmin/peacekeeping-force-of-globalization ("We own our connectivity").

What is our military really doing to encourage this? What is our government doing? Virtually nothing.

So yeah, Mia Farrow gets more credit on this one than talking-point Condi does.

Thanks to Chris Mewett for sending this.
