This Mass Genocide is unreal, and it gets almost zero publicity.

Not to discourage any attempts to fix the region, but it does get press coverage.

It doesn't get as much coverage because everyone agrees that it is bad and thus can't be politicized.

^A good point.

Let's face another sad fact: It won't get as much coverage because the likelihood of it spreading into something that directly affects us is minimal. Thus, people aren't going to get as up-in-arms about it no matter how disgusting it is.

It might actually do something if the US didn't continually veto resolutions against the Sudanesse government.

Quote :
"Residents sought shelter in churches, mosques and hospitals when the rebels raided Bentiu town, the world body said in a statement.

"We believe that at least 400 people were killed in Bentiu in the past week," said Toby Lanzer, the top United Nations official in South Sudan.

In one mosque alone, more than 200 civilians were reportedly killed and 400 others wounded, according to the United Nations."
