It has been reported that the U.S. is holding of on further sanctions against Sudan at the request of the United Nations. The U.N. is pushing Sudan to accept more international peacekeepers in their country.

This is expected to delay more sanctions by, at least, 2-4 weeks.

Please understand, these are sanctions. So, the effects of these may not be felt immediately in Sudan. So, any delay only adds more time to Sudan seeing any negative financial impact to its policy of genocide in Darfur.

These sanctions will target 29 Sudanese companies. The U.S. is hoping that they will have the same effect as similar sanctions against Iran and North Korea.

However, as we continue to way, more people will be raped, maimed and killed. The time to act is long overdue. So, world, what are we waiting for?
