Mia Farrow Asks Blackwater for Help in Darfur

Competition for the Academy Award for Worst Hollywood Liberalism may be stiff, but, in my humble opinion, Mia Farrow ought to be the winner: "Mia Farrow, the actress and activist, has asked Blackwater, the US private security company active in Iraq, for help in Darfur after becoming frustrated by the stalled deployment of a United Nations peacekeeping force" (Harvey Morris, "Activists Turn to Blackwater over Darfur," Financial Times, 19 June 2008).
