Has the UN deployed a robust force to Darfur with sufficient mandate to protect civilians?

UN Security Council Resolution 1706, passed on July 25, 2006, was not implemented. Another Security Council Resolution, 1769, was passed on July 31, 2007 authorizing a hybrid UN/AU Mission in Darfur (UNAMID). The force, scheduled to deploy in January 2008, is currently facing obstruction from the Sudanese government.
