We are all used to seeing George Clooney as this tough guy who always has a plan B in his movies, unfortunately that wasn’t the case today as he was taken away in handcuffs after being arrested at a protest outside the Sudanese Embassy in Washington. The 50-year-old actor, his father Nick and a number of other protesters had been given three verbal warnings by police not to cross a police line outside the embassy before being taken into custody. Shortly before his arrest, the academy award winning actor said: ‘We are here really to ask two very simple questions,’ according a report on CNN. ‘The first question is something immediate – and immediately we need humanitarian aid to be allowed into the Sudan before it becomes the worst humanitarian crisis in the world.’Clooney added that the second thing he was there for, ‘is for the government in Khartoum to stop randomly killing its own innocent men, women and children. Stop raping them and stop starving them.’
