The end of 2007 also saw the resignation of Andrew Natsios, the US Special Envoy for Sudan, and the appointment of Mr. Richard Williamson, to take his place.  A new year and a new Special Envoy are an excellent opportunity to take a new, tougher approach with Sudan.  Write a letter to President Bush and tell him to use his upcoming State of the Union Address on January 28 to announce his plan to bring lasting peace to Darfur.http://actnow-phr.org/campaign/peace_is_possible  [...] [...] PHR’s Peace is Possible campaign From PHR’s website:  The joint United Nations-African Union peacekeeping force which took over from the beleaguered African Union (AMIS) force on January 1, 2008, is due to expand to 19,000 troops and 6,000 police.  However, fewer than a third of the forces are deployed, mostly due to obstruction and delays thrown up by Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir.  Also hindering the troops’ movement is the fact that no countries have yet offered any of the 24 helicopters needed by the force.  So the people of Darfur have started the New Year as 2007 ended – insecure and in constant fear.
