America is distracted

Ah, being America; you’re the bad guy when you interfere in other countries and you’re also the bad guy when you don’t interfere in other countries. The same people criticizing America for not doing anything today will turn around and start criticizing America for what they did, no matter what it was, if they get involved tomorrow. Everything you touch is your fault and everything you don’t touch is also your fault.

Maybe, just maybe, America shouldn’t be expected to insert itself into a Sudanese civil war. Maybe, just maybe, Middle Eastern and African powers should come together to deal with humanitarian crises in their own region and America should be, at most, a partner providing assistance only if and when requested.

I agree that the world should pay far more attention but this is an unfair characterization of the UN.

First of all, the UN are putting out regular updates and Sudan’s UN coordinator thinks they have got the main players to agree to dialogue:

The resident U.N. humanitarian coordinator for Sudan, said on Friday that the beligerants committed to establishing a Humanitarian Forum, with U.N. participation.

Secondly UNHCR are also trying to deal with a cholera outbreak in Sudan at the moment and literally just sent the 6th flight of humanitarian aid:

The plane delivered more than 33 metric tonnes of supplies for cholera response, including medicines, laboratory supplies and equipment, as well as reproductive health kits for the UN Population Fund (UNFPA).

Edit: plot twist: it’s just been revealed that Sudan is telling the UN to leave.

What would be the expected action?

White people only care about themselves. they enact special laws and measures and pour in billions of dollars to welcome Ukrainian refugees even at the expanse of local population, but turn a blind eye to the same suffering of people from other races. Big hypocrites with shameless faces.
