It all means that Darfur, so benighted that U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan likened it to "hell on earth," faces another curse: famine. A Tufts University study released earlier this year says that because of problems unprecedented even in Darfur's tortured history, "regionwide famine appears inevitable."
"People are starving and no one is reporting it, because technically they are not starving," says Bir Chandra Mandal, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Program emergency director in South Darfur. They die from TB (tuberculosis) or malaria or diarrhea, their immune systems weakened by malnutrition. He calls it an "invisible famine."
Awe, who cares really ? I mean, starving is a very peaceful, painless way to die
Darfur has been facing "inevitable famine" for over 12,000 years ...
Sam Kinison said it best:
See this ? This is sand . Nothing grows in sand . Do you know why there's no food ? It's because you live in a $%^&*@# desert !! Don't send them food , send them U-Haul trailers so they can move to where the food is !!

This article has nothing to do with starvation or famine, but rather the continuation of a centuries old practice of black on black genocide. The only difference is that in modern times the government as opposed to the tribal chief is at the controls and news organizations, whenever there is a slow news day, now write about it.
it took days to recover Charlie P .......... something I would not want to go through again for certain. My dehydration was different than Schivao's though
