The League of Nations
The Security Council's "deadline" for the Sudanese government to disarm the Arab janjaweed death squads has come and gone. In response, the UN has (surprise surprise) done nothing. Way to go, guys.

The Arab League has of course voiced it's full support for Khartoum. Of course, this is the same Arab League that refused to condemn Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait and the same Arab League that raised a stink about Abu Ghraib, but remains mum about the routine human rights abuses that pass for a justice system in the Arab world.
