#1 What a hell hole.

#2 condolences - a waste for a wasteful cause/institution, but done for all the right reasons. A bombing raid of Khartoum would've done more good and saved this poor man's life

#3 Agreed, frank. However, I do find it interesting that an Iraqi would go there to try and work on humanitarian issues. I'd like to know a lil' more about his background and his reasons for doing so. Could be because he got a taste of freedom post-Saddam and decided to spread the word. Or, just a convenient UN position. Either way, I applaud him as an individual. The corporate body of the UN on the other hand is a waste. We could do more arming and training the southern Sudanese to rise up against the janjaweed than any UN Humanitarian "mission" could do.
