Is Colin Powell’s visit “Dangerously Naive” on Sudan genocide? I don’t think so, but we will see..

The basic idea of an Africa Action piece that claims Colin Powell’s visit is dangerously naive: you cannot negotiate with a genocidal regime.
I am sure that I agree with this. I think that Colin Powell also
understands this. So far the naive initiatives have seemed to be
Kofi Annan’s. The US government has been ahead of the world on
Sudan and Darfur–and one possible result of today’s visit is for the
US to declare the
situation a genocide–now based on giving the government one last
warning, and on visiting directly.
