They Can’t Wait

Tell the Obama Administration that waiting is not an option for the people of Sudan as their government masses its armed forces to attack Sudanese civilians and blocks humanitarian aid.


Tell the Obama Administration that waiting is not an option for the people of Sudan as their government masses its armed forces to attack Sudanese civilians and blocks humanitarian aid.

TAKE ACTION NOW

 

Recent satellite imagery shows that the government of Sudan is massing its armed forces in preparation for a full-scale military assault on the Nuba people in South Kordofan. Hundreds of thousands of civilians are at imminent risk with evacuation routes blocked by Sudan’s army. This grave threat is compounded by the government of Sudan’s continuous blockade of humanitarian assistance since June 5, 2011. US Ambassador to the UN Susan Rice recently stated, “If there is not a substantial new inflow of aid by March” the situation in Southern Kordofan will be “one step short of full- scale famine.”

With another major attack imminent, the Obama Administration must lead and take action, unilateral if needed, to save lives immediately. Time has run out for dialogue and negotiations with Omar al Bashir’s genocidal regime in Sudan that, for decades, has killed while it talks. The innocent civilians in Sudan can’t wait any longer.

Send a fax to senior Administration officials with responsibility for Sudan policy, asking the United States to urgently take necessary steps to save lives and avoid complicity in genocide.

TAKE ACTION NOW
