The situation in Darfur is complex and confusing. The government in Khartoum uses that to its advantage, hiding it's actions in the fog, much in the same way the Khmer Rouge and other genocidal actors did in times past.
One way to follow events, surprisingly enough, is in Jan Pronk's blog. Pronk is the UN special envoy to the Sudan and he's very outspoken for a man in such a position. The government has just kicked him out of the country for comments that he made in the blog, so I don't know how useful it will be from here on in, but I plan to go back and read his last year of posts. I can't believe I had no idea such a thing existed!
