Bush Names Special Envoy on Darfur Violence
19 September 2006



President Bush has named a special envoy to try to help end the violence in Sudan's Darfur region.


The president is appointing Andrew Natsios, a former administrator for the U.S. Agency for International Development. Natsios also served as special humanitarian coordinator for Sudan.

Mr. Bush announced the appointment Tuesday in his address to the United Nations General Assembly in New York.

The president said the world body "must act" if Sudan continues to oppose a U.N.-led peacekeeping mission for Darfur.

1. Oh....I thought it would be Karen Hughes
As the Dallas, Texas soccer mom appointed by Bush and Condi to heal the wounds between the U.S. and ARAB community I thought she would be the natural retard for the Darfur job.

Darfur needs more than a Bush crony to help over there.

3. I love his book title
U.S. Foreign Policy and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (Center for Strategic and International Studies, 1997)

Think he might be a true believer?
