I'm not going to do a damn thing about the Darfur issue, anymore than
I'd expect the inhabitants of Darfur to suddenly get hard at work to
solve North Dakota's flagging rural economy issue.
Let Africa solve Africa's problems.

Here is a link to the Darfur Peace Accountability Act (DPAA), an
executive order E.O. signed by president bush October 13, 2006
prohibiting U.S. persons from engaging transactions with the
government of Sudan, but allowing trade and humanitarian assistance to
take place in specified areas "including Southern Sudan, Southern
Kordofan/Nuba Mountains State, Blue Nile State, Abyei, Darfur, and
marginalized areas in and around Khartoum"

"The President signed the Darfur Peace and Accountability Act
("DPAA"), into law on October 13, 2006. In order to take appropriate
account of the relevant provisions in the DPAA, and to continue the
Administration's pursuit of sanctions against Sudan, the President
issued an Executive Order, "Blocking Property Of And Prohibiting
Transactions With The Government Of Sudan" on October 13, 2006 (the
"E.O."). The E.O. blocks all property and interests in property of the
Government of Sudan that are in the United States, that come within
the United States, or that are or come within the possession or
control of U.S. persons, including their overseas branches, and
prohibits U.S. persons from engaging in any transactions involving
such property or interests in property. It also prohibits all
transactions by U.S. persons relating to Sudan's petroleum or
petrochemical industries, including, but not limited to, oilfield
services and oil or gas pipelines. The current sanctions will no
longer prohibit trade and related transactions or humanitarian
assistance in the areas of Sudan specified in the DPAA, including
Southern Sudan, Southern Kordofan/Nuba Mountains State, Blue Nile
State, Abyei, Darfur, and marginalized areas in and around Khartoum,
provided that the Government of Sudan does not have any property
interest in the transaction. In addition, the new Order preserves a
full trade ban on the areas of Sudan not specified in the DPAA..."
