I am writing in support of the Viva Palestina humanitarian convoy that is currently seeking to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza. This convoy is carrying humanitarian relief to a beseiged population. It is a violation of human rights to deny it access.

Last year a UN-African Union peacekeeping force (UNAMID) was deployed to Darfur to protect civilians. Many countries pledged troops and military hardware, yet over a year later UNAMID remains severely under-resourced with just over 60% deployed.

Omar al-Bashir, the president of Sudan, is succeeding admirably in making a mockery of the International Criminal Court and its arrest warrent for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Darfur. Bashir has paid no attention, traveling regularly.

"It would be a shame if the Arab League countries became known as a safe haven for indicted war criminals. Another tragedy would be for Arab leaders to decline the opportunity to urge Bashir to save lives and lessen the intense suffering in Darfur."
