    Mr. Dobson should do well to go and live with the victims of this horrific genocide and eat and sleep and spend their days of constant threat with them. Maybe then he wouldn't make the kinds of inhumane comments he is making on this show. Unbelievable! AND, If China cared enough, it would be afraid of A MASSIVE BOYCOTT OF ITS PRECIOUS OLYMPIC GAMES. HOW CAN PEOPLE even balance out the value of the Olympic games with the thousands of lives lost and the threat of millions more being being lost to this genocide.

    It took Pres. Bush but a few months to invade Iraq. It's taken years and thousands of deaths for real humanitarian action in Darfur.

    Correction:

    And, if China cared enough, it would be afraid of A MASSIVE BOYCOTT OF ITS PRECIOUS OLYMPIC GAMES and it WOULD HAVE DONE A WHOLE LOT MORE BY NOW. It is incredible how the capitalist machine finds explanations and excuses for all of its atrocities and people accept it.

    I SAY BOYCOTT THE OLYMPICS, consider the possibility of you yourself being born in Darfur and being the victim. It's called HUMANITY PEOPLE.
