Take Action to Help Darfur

These poor people in Darfur have waited three years for our help. Take action by quickly sending a message to President Bush. Urge him to show that the USA can lead the world in endeavors other than war.

Please take action today. If you do not know much about Darfur, please read my post Help the People of Darfur on Texas RV Travel blog. Warning! The pictures will make you cry, but think about how they feel.

From an email from Save Darfur Coalition

The UN has authorized a joint United Nations-African Union peacekeeping mission for Darfur. Now we must ensure that President Bush upholds the U.S. commitment to support the peacekeeping mission when the UN General Assembly meets on September 18th.

Our goal is to send 100,000 messages in the next three weeks urging the president to uphold his commitment. Over 50,000 have been sent.

Help us reach our goal! Click the URL below now to send your message.

Although the UN-AU peacekeeping mission will not include U.S. troops, it will require U.S. funding, equipment, and diplomatic support to be effective.

It is crucial that world leaders like President Bush stick to their commitments to Darfur and help ensure the rapid deployment of the peacekeepers.

Then please forward this message to your friends and family and ask them to join you.
