Eclipsed from the headlines by the ongoing carnage, there is an active
civil resistance in Iraq that opposes the occupation, the torture regime
it protects, and the jihadi and Ba'athist 'resistance' alike.
Amnesty International has accused China and Russia of continuing to supply arms to Sudan which are used in Darfur, breaching a UN arms embargo.
A report by the watchdog says the weapons are landing in the hands of the government-backed Janjaweed militia.
It includes photographic evidence of the Sudanese air force using military aircraft in Darfur.
But the Sudanese ambassador to the UN, Abdel Mahmood Abdel Haleem, said the allegations were a lie.
"Our reaction to the Amnesty International allegations is very easy - it is a total rejection as it is baseless and unfounded," he told the BBC.
"These photos maybe a plane in the Central African Republic or maybe for one in south Sudan, but it is not in Darfur at all. We are not on combat missions in Darfur at all," he added.

The inconvenient facts and unanswered questions surrounding the attacks are legion, but the endemic sloppiness of the self-styled "researchers" is delegitimizing the entire project of critiquing the "official version." The ostentatiously named "Truth movement" is not clearing the air, but muddying the water.
