Google Earth Highlights Darfur

Posted by samzenpus on from the genocide-from-space dept.

jc42 writes "Google Earth, in cooperation with the US Holocaust Memorial Museum now presents details of the growing disaster in Darfur. They give a virtual tour of the area, with details of events in many villages in the words of local residents. So in addition to their "Do no evil" motto, they apparently now have a policy of exposing evil. Needless to say, the Sudan government didn't exactly cooperate with this project."

    Iraq was a problem, but it was much much less of a problem after the Gulf war.

    I did not say it is OK. It is a civil war, not genocide. War is not ok. Particular twist of Western media labeling it a genocide and de facto undermining the Sudanese government tells me that there is something else behind recent hoopla.
