I don't understand why we should help Darfur but we can't try to help the people in Iraq.

Because they are confused about our role in Iraq. They do not see us as liberators. Their q & a around here demonstrates that constantly. They think we invaded Iraq and are over there killing civilians for the fun of it.
It is only their government they hold to such high judgment. They do not scrutinize the action of terrorists like they do our president.
They also miss the double standard. Somehow, they envision us waltzing into Darfur, arms loaded with food and being greeted by smiles and flowers (hence their reference to the Iraqi people greeting us in that manner).
They do not realize how many thousands we would have to kill to get that food to the people in the Sudan.

Helping in Darfur would be for humanitarian purposes. Had the reason we invaded Iraq been for some noble reason like standing up for human rights, instead of a lie then I don't think so many people would have a problem with that one either, but the ends do not always justify the means.

this is not the ingredient that they are Islamic countries, this is the certainty that their are foreign places troops on the Holy Land. the certainty that the troops are purely there motives the concern interior the 1st place (first Iraq conflict) then they grew to grow to be an invasion tension (2nd Iraq conflict) which has purely uped the ante plenty. Sudan is Africa, and so there is not a similar project.

Yes, Darfur poses no threat to us what so ever. But Iraq actually did. Again i think we should kill all of those sudan people who commit genocide. But wait, going to Darfur to help people and actually using the military??? RUN SPINELESS DEMOCRATS, RUN!!! THERE MIGHT BE SOME FIGHTING!!

I know the people you're talking about, their complete ignorance never ceases to amaze me. We are not in Iraq for oil, we're there to free people from tyranny, and now that things aren't going so well, stupid hippies are saying we should leave the Iraqis in the dust, and start another unwinnable war in Africa. We can't help everyone at once, we can only do it one at a time.

They are also the same ones who were able to overlook Rwanda and the hundreds of thousands who were slaughtered there during the Clinton Presidency.

Simple answer - they are all for helping in Darfur - until we actually commit our troops - then they're for immediate withdrawal because of our dastardly deed of invading yet another sovereign nation.
What a bunch of fanatical, unrealistic hypocrites !

Gosh! Let's see.
Darfur is a manmade humanitarian crisis where defenseless animists and Christians are targeted for random execution by Islamic invaders. Iraq is a war of American choice that has no purpose other than lining the pockets of multi-national corporations.
Seems pretty clear to me.

If we were to send troops to Sudan the liberals would protest against it, as usual. Once they got there they would say the U.S. is creating a civil war and the genocide is all our fault. It's what I predict anyway, based on their prior behavior.
