“All Bark, No Bite”

Enough, the project to end genocide and crimes against humanity, has created an interactive timeline of the Darfur crisis and the Bush administration’s response (or lack thereof) to it from its inauguration to its final days.

One common theme emerges – tough words without tough actions.

Some of the Bush administration’s most noteworthy quotes on Darfur –

The world cannot ignore the suffering of more than one million people.

The international community has to act on Darfur.

The brutal treatment of innocent civilians in Darfur is unacceptable.

America will not turn away from this tragedy. We will call genocide by its rightful name.

There is no time to delay.
