FRONTLINE: On Our Watch

PBS aired FRONTLINE: On Our Watch last night. The program presented a chronological accounting of the international community's (particularly the United Nations') response to the Darfur genocide. If you missed it, you can watch it online at http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/darfur/.

If the program drives one thing home, it is that our government and the governments of other countries can not be counted on to end this genocide. We can no longer sit idly by and expect, or believe, that some entity on its own accord will save Darfur. We must accept that the responsibility really lies with each and all of us. Now, let's get to work!
