George Clooney We Have To Make Life Miserable For President Of Sudan | E! Online

George Clooney continued his quest last night to stop the atrocities occurring in Sudan.

"We hear these slogans and say them a lot—"not on our watch," "never again"—but the truth is that when it comes to innocent people being slaughtered, it always happens on our watch," the Oscar-winner said at last night's Carousel of Hope Ball, where he was honored with the Brass Ring Award. "It happens again and again and again."

Clooney said he is dedicated to helping end President Omar al-Bashir's horrific reign over Sudan.

"The truth is…were going to have to find lots of ways to make life miserable for people who make lives miserable," he said. "And more importantly…we have to continue to make life bearable for those whose situation has become unbearable."

One of Clooney's most impressive endeavors is financing a satellite that focuses on Sudan.

"It's an area that journalists can't get into," he said. "There's a good reason they can't get in is because the president of Sudan Omar al-Bishir is consistently and constantly killing innocent civilians."

George got himself arrested protesting outside the Sudanese embassy in Washington, D.C.

Clooney said Bashir, who has been charged with war crimes against humanity, has publicly complained about the satellite.

"President Bashir posed the question, ‘How would Mr. Clooney like it if everywhere he went cameras were following him?'" Clooney said as the crowded ballroom erupted in laughter.

The actor added with a smile, "It sounds terrible."

"You can't make people do the right things," Clooney said, "but you can make it harder for them to do the wrong things."
