TNR Slow To Catch Up

The New Republic has an editorial this week with the header: It's becoming obvious: No one is going to save Darfur .

They have been one of the most reliable voices on the subject of Darfur, but timing suggests a certain naivety on their part. Referring to the genocidaires, they say: "By now, these sadists and their powerful patrons must have figured out the obvious: that no one is going to stop them." Well yes, from their actions, I think that sadly they figured it out long before the good folks at TNR.
