For over three years Sudan’s government-backed Janjaweed Arab-Muslim militia has had free rein to slaughter innocent civilians in Darfur. Thousands of villages and their inhabitants are being systematically wiped off the face of the Earth. Most of the victims are themselves Muslims and all of them are black Africans.

• As many as 400,000 people have been killed
• 2.5 million have been displaced from their homes
• 3.5 million are starving

As Jews we have a sacred obligation to ensure that genocide is never ignored. For 60 years the rallying cry of our community has been, "Never again!" Now we have the opportunity to put our commitment into action.

Darfur needs your help! Join the Million Voices for Darfur and send an e-mail to President Bush calling on him to mobilize an effective multinational force to protect the civilians of Darfur. The lives of innocent people are well worth the minute of your time it takes to send Mr. Bush a message.

We learned a long time ago that all it takes for evil to flourish if for good people not to act. Please add your voice to this important campaign and spread the word by sharing this message today.
