| Nine USAID Relief Workers Killed in Sudan |
| 2003-10-27 |
| EFL AP from Newsday Killing the NGO’s seems to be a growing trend. Nine Sudanese relief workers for an American aid agency were killed during clashes between warring tribes in western Sudan. Andrew Natsios, head of the United States Agency for International Development, told reporters at the American Embassy in Khartoum that the nine workers were killed a week ago while transferring aid to displaced Sudanese in camps in the country’s western Darfur region. It was unclear who killed the workers. I suspect it was guys with guns. Let’s do ourselves a favor an give these guys the Somalia treatment. |

| #1 The Khartoum government has for nearly two decades supported the murderous activity of abbala (camel and baggara (cattle) Arabs against the Fur, Zaghawa, Berti and other tribes of Sudan's Darfur. It is the classic struggle of Arabs and their army against the African tribals who were Islamized quite late in Muslim history. It is almost certain that the AID people who were helping the displaced were killed by Arabs. |
