National Call-In Day to Save Darfur - Feb. 1

February 1st National Call-In Day to the United Nations
February 1st is the first day of the U.S. presidency of the UN Security Council. Lets call U.S. Ambassador to the UN, John Bolton, and ask him to take the action necessary to stop genocide in Darfur. By calling the mission we demonstrate how many people across this nation care to see action on Darfur and we send the message that we are watching the U.S. while they are in this leadership position at the UN.

On February 1st, a national call-in day on Darfur, please call the UN with the following message:

Hello. I am calling with a message for U.S. Ambassador to the UN, John Bolton. Mr. Bolton, as you take the presidency of the Security Council, I urge you to introduce a resolution for a multinational intervention in Darfur in support of the African Union with a mandate to protect civilians. As the violence continues to rise in Darfur, there is no more time to waste. Anything short of a resolution will be a lost opportunity. Thank you.

You can reach the U.S. Mission at the United Nations by calling: (212) 415-4050.

Why today and not tomorrow?
-Because today in Darfur, every 4 minutes a person will die because of genocide.
-Because on your lunch hour alone, 16 people will have died in Darfur as a result of genocide.
-Because when you awake tomorrow morning, 190 people willl have died in Darfur because of genocide.

Why by the end of this week?
-Because the amount of people who will die in Darfur by the end of this week will be equivalent to the amount of people killed in the terrorist attacks on 9/11.

Why by the end of this month?
-Because the amount of people who die in Darfur as a result of genocide will be 10,000.*
