The comments after the article are interesting too.
Imho, as previously noted more than once by me, it is my conjecture that the mass of Arabs actually knows next to nothing about the alleged genocide, and I perceive the article suggests such.

eg from the article "People say 'the Arabs or Muslims - cannot do this - it did not happen' - but they did do this and it did happen - and they have to reconcile themselves to the fact."
So, obviously, Arabs and Americans have a lot in common. BOTH are in gross denial about what they are actually capable of, and what they have actually done to cause harm to other people in other lands.

One thing they do not have in common is a commonality of government.
Americans are being compared to 'arabs'. The usual bullshit demand is that all arabs act as one and think as one and so all share the responsibility . As I say, the usual bullshit or if not then no one anywhere can sit on any moral high ground.
Even 'arabs' being a part of the Darfur situation is forced:
It is important to distinguish the Sudanese Arab from other Arabs of the Middle East. Sudanese Arabs are descended primarily from the ancient Nubians. In terms of racial origin, it is not clear what specific racial or ethnic group the Nubians originated from. Over a period of centuries, Arab immigration into the Sudan, intermarriage among Nubians and Arabs, and the introduction of Islam and the Arabic language, Arabised the Nubians into the Sudanese Arab of today. In appearance, the Nubians look similar to the Ethiopians and Eritreans; at one point, they shared a common history with the latter. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darfur_conflict
Let us be honest, Darfur would not be in the news as much as it is if
1) Blood libel was not able to be pinned on 'arabs' 2) The West was not doing what they are and have been doing in the Middle East.
As far as denial goes, as far as "knowing next to nothing", when it comes to the Middle East.... give me a break! This would be funny if it were not so pathetic.
