John Bolton, our lovely United Nations Ambassador, has blocked a UN briefing on the escalated violence in the Darfur region of Sudan. He was joined by China, Algeria, and Russia - some good company, eh?

Of course, this at the same time that it is being reported that the violence is escalating:

The top United Nations envoy for the prevention of genocide charged Monday that Arab militias have escalated their campaign of violence against civilians in the Darfur region of Sudan, mounting an unprecedented pair of attacks against camps for displaced families.

Don't you just love John Bolton?
