Statement by the President on DarfurDiplomatic Reception Room

THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. For too long, the people of Darfur have suffered at the hands of a government that is complicit in the bombing, murder, and rape of innocent civilians. My administration has called these actions by their rightful name: genocide. The world has a responsibility to help put an end to it...more here.
In this statement Bush speaks on company enablers, businesses that inadvertently fund Sudan's government. You may be surprised. LA Times has an interesting article regarding Bill Gates's challenge to divest from Sudan.I have a few a Coverdell mutual fund account for that I need to take a closer look at as well. Could you be investing in the Darfur genocide and not know it?
