John Bolton, US Ambassador to the UN, says the term Darfur "genocide" sounds right

Opinion piece March 1, 2006 by James Forsyth at The New Republic Online - reprinted at Sudan Tribune - excerpt:
John Bolton is nothing if not direct. So it was unsurprising that when Time magazine asked him recently whether genocide is "the right term for what's happening" in Darfur, he gave a blunt response: "Sounds right to me."
Also note, US Department of State report at ReliefWeb March 1, 2006: US envoy Bolton sees critical need for UN peacekeepers.
