Washington refuses to say 'genocide' about the situation in Darfur

American officials said that the US does not have enough evidences to announce that genocide is taking place in Darfur and might find it is difficult to prove there is the intention of a mass killing behind the violence in west Sudan.

Should the American government reach the conclusion that the Arab militias attacks on the African villagers constitute a mass killing -- this might increase the international pressures in Sudan to end the crisis which the UN estimates it resulted in killing 55,000 persons and left 1.2 million as homeless.

One American official asked to be anonymous said " what there is is not genocide and that evidence to prove that does not existed." However, the American officials accused the Sudanese government of supporting the Jangaweid militias, which are accused to mass cleansing, rape and theft crimes.

The US congress had announced that violence is a genocide, but the European union found no evidences in that. A result which might be at the ultimate end adopted by the US Department Of State. Sudan denies that the conflict taking place in Darfur to be a genocide.

The UN charter recognizes genocide as acts committed under the intention to destroy a national, racial, ethnical and religious groups, totally or partially.
