I don't get it. We shouldn't have gotten involved with Iraq because they weren't a threat, but we should be involved in Darfaur where there's even less of one?

If you love Jesus Christ and are 100% proud of it, copy this and make it your signature!

"Even less of one"? How can you say that when over two million innocent people are living with the threats of starvation, torture, and murder? This isn't about whether Sudan poses a threat to the United States; it's about our responsibility - not as Americans, but as human beings - to defend those whose rights are violated.

What are you going to do EMiller? risk your own life by joining a UN Peacekeeper's force, or are you a chickenhawk?

So what are you trying to say? You remind me of the twerp I met the other day with all his Jesus bumper stickers like Know Jesus, Know .... No .... next to his NRA, Marine and Army bumper stickers. Funny, I didn't remember Jesus and his boys running around killing and fighting too much. Figure if you have faith in God or whatever, why do you need an army and a pile of guns too?
Getting back to Darfur, if we do go in, it should be to wipe out the Arab scumbags running the country, who are no better than their spiritual ancestor the Mahdi, not run around like some worthless blue helmets making notes.
