Sudan Pondering whether to fix elections or invade south
[Washington Times] John Bolton, former Ambassador to the UN, reports that since Obama is a squish,
He didn't actually call him that, because he was a diplomat, but that delightful term is most definitely the sense of the op-ed.
it has emboldened the genocidal Sudanese regime to work up lots of options for dealing with the Jan 2011 referendum (the referendum was the result of diplomacy under the W presidency).

A fair referendum would result in South Sudan succeeding. The North won't like this because the South has more oil and because it is an insult to the more Islamic North.

Options for the North:

- fix the referendum
- intimidate the South so the referendum is postponed
- send some troops there and get the UN to postpone the referendum to await the removal of the troops, then don't remove them
- various jihad alternates
- persuade the Americans to unilaterally pre-abrogate the results of the referendum
