If I'd seen what he'd seen I'd want to write it too. And it does give some insight into the horrors of Darfur. It must have been unutterably bleak to have the job of watching this happen and not be able to do anything about it. But it's kind of one-dimensional - there's very little by way of political analysis or ways forward, just a lot of description of atrocities. Hard to think about and no way forward. A chronology of the massacres that the author reported to the African Union during a year stay in Darfur. That is pretty much it. He doesn't provide a history of the government, the janjaweed, the SLA etc (in fact the name Al Bashir is never mentioned during the book...), or the issues in Darfur. doesn't provide any history of the complacency of the west, even though he complains, rightfully so, about the west's lack of effort. Overall, it felt like he was going to write a book about no matter how much information he had -- even though the only info he used was his experiences. NO CONTEXT!! sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
This powerful and original film exposes the tragedy taking place in Darfur as seen through the eyes of an American witness, former U.S. Marine Captain Brian Steidle, who has since returned to the U.S. to take action to stop it. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
