China's complicity in the ongoing genocide in Darfur
Submitted by eregular on Sat, 10/06/2007 - 3:30pm.http://en.epochtimes.com/news/7-5-30/55906.html
"The Chinese communist regime has invested upwards of $US10 billion to develop Sudan's oil fields and over 60 per cent of the oil now produced goes to satisfy China's apparently insatiable thirst for the black gold.
The People's Republic of China (PRC) is also Khartoum's main supplier of weapons, many of which end up in the hands of the Janjaweed militiamen committing the atrocities in Darfur.
In addition to propping up the Bashir regime and ignoring its policy of ethnic cleansing, the Chinese communists have consistently vetoed any attempts by the UN Security Council to send a peacekeeping force to the region or impose sanctions. That was until, inspired by Mia Farrow, people around the world started talking about the "genocide Olympics". "
