Sudan soldier: 'They told me to kill, to rape children'

It's good to see that war criminal charges have finally been levied against Bashir, but it is pretty apparent that he doesn't plan on showing up for his day in court. Telling the courts to "eat it" isn't exactly a promising remark.

Hopefully the Obama administration continues to pressure China and other supporters of the Sudanese regime in order to bring an end to the atrocities there. Reading a story like that of the soldier in this article really sucks some of the life out of you.
