When your kids learn about the Holocaust in school, and then come home and ask you and your spouse why America didn't stop genocide in Darfur, what will you tell them? What excuse will you give?
A terrorist supporting oppressive regime is wiping out three tribes of people with a final solution that would make Hitler proud. No one in power cares. Its all but guaranteed America will not get involved, and usually, as America goes, so does the rest of the world. America's inaction gives other nations an excuse for inaction. America's the leader, and leaders lead the way. With no one leading the way, nothing is getting done to save these people. I love my country but our silence and inaction is so, so wrong.
I have mine I think. I'm telling them the whole truth. My country was busy fighting terrorists in Iraq. The media didn't tell the American people about what was happening, they cared more about Britney Spears and the Boston Red Sox, so the people couldn't demand action. A very, small minority on both the left and right (honey they're called socialists and Fortress America conservatives) oppose brave American men and women defeating tyrants and other bad men and rescuing people in serious trouble. And as for myself, son/daughter, I faced court martial from the Navy if I went to help, and I would've been sent to jail for a very long time if I'd done what I wanted to do and grabbed a gun and tried to fight the murderers myself.
