There may be a good day in Darfur. And the ICC's indictment of Sudanese Presidnet Omar Hassan al-Bashir may have a lot to do with it, the New York Times reports.
While al-Bashir's government, and even the domestic political opposition, is rallying around him in defiance of the ICC indictment, the Times suggests that previously unthinkable concessions will be on the table to save Bashir – turning over two other Sudanese officials indicted for genocide, cabinet minister Ahmad Harun and janjaweed leader Ali Kushayb, and maybe even a resolution to the ongoing genocide.
There's a long way to go, and the damage in Darfur is incalculable. But a ray of hope there, even a small one, is noteworthy.
