Rape in Darfur

Ugh... this is a story in the continuing, awful saga in Darfur. The summary is that 100% of women in refugee camps in Darfur are victims of rape or other gender-driven abuse. It's a truly heinous situation, as most everything happening in Darfur is. And of course the Sudanese government is quoted as saying something like, "There is no rape in Darfur." Nice, huh?

Anyways, the story is here.
