Recently I was in Darfur for fieldwork research. The situation of violence is complex. However, for a sociologist, it would be impossible to resist the reality that the state authority organises an intent discrimination of specific ethnic groups in the region of Darfur to be killed inclusively at their villages. For instance, Tingo, a small village in the Southern Darfur State of Nyala was attacked on Friday by an armed force, which the victim called Janjaweed. The owners of the village are Fur from African origin and even though they were in a public prayer in the mosque of the village, the attackers whom they believe to be of the same faith – Islam – could not spare them in the mosque. In that particular assault, more than 263 people were killed in the mosque and the market.

In conclusion, when a killing is racialised to the extent of searching for the particular group, then that is genocide. But who says this? The UN Security Council is incompetent to act at least to stop the killing, even if it refuses to categorise it as a genocide. China, as a giant state with a moral obligation to respect of humanity, is badly enslaved by economic interest hence, it blocks all possible attempts to force President Bashir to stop the war.
