#4 Southern Sudan has a lot of quiet international support from a variety of sources. And after the Jajaweed genocide program, there is not a lot of support for the Northern Sudanese. As well, a lot of the Christians in Africa and their Western supporters are viewing Southern Sudan as the area to rebuild and develop in opposition to the Islamists in North Africa. So its chances are better than Biafra's ever were.

#5 So its chances are better than Biafra's ever were.

That's like saying my chances of scoring with a supermodel are better than my grandfather's.

"Quiet international support" isn't going to cut it when the bullets start flying again.
