Where are the Cries of Outrage?

ypocrites on this issue. A savage form of terror has been unfolding in our own backyard for four years, yet until now, neither the Arab League nor any individual Arab government has sought to do much about it. Many of our political and religious leaders have strongly denounced what are arguably lesser crimes – such as the awkward and insensitive remarks made by the pope during an academic lecture – but have turned a blind eye as their fellow Muslims are slaughtered in Sudan. Where are the cries of outrage over Darfur?

The pope’s remarks are arguably a lesser crime? Good to see some acknowledgement of Arab lack of concern over Darfur, but it looks like there’s a way to go yet.
