So, the President will speak to Minni Minnawi, the head of the SLA from Darfur, but will not speak with Bashar Assad, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, or Kim Jong-il, all heads of state, for fear of sending the wrong message and rewarding bad behavior? I could be wrong, but I believe Minnawi has been indicted for war crimes by the ICC. What message does this send? Does this help the crisis in Darfur, Sudan?
