Sudan issues threat over intervention | ||||||||
2004-07-29 | ||||||||
Egypt said yesterday it would try to prevent adoption of an American-drafted resolution threatening U.N. sanctions on Sudan, aiming to temper international pressure on its neighbor over bloodshed in its western provinces.

#15 For the delusion we are rebuilding alliances, we are down on our knees, begging to be agreed with, so that the UN can remove the words "sanction" and "genocide" from resolutions and allow the slaughter to continue? It is sickening that we posture ourselves now as if we are the shamed. This UN is a lemon, yet we keep trying to drive it. |

#14 Desire to stop the bloodshed must come from within the African community of nations. Ain't gonna happpen. Slavery issue redux when African chiefs sold fellow Africans to Arab slavers - now we have African chiefs tied to Arab oil/money tit who are selling out their brothers... |

#12 I look forward to some enterprizing reporter in Georgia asking Cynthia McKinney a series of well informed questions about the Arab genocide of blacks in Darfar and Arab oppression of Berbers, Saudi enslavement of black Sudanese, etc. The Atlanta Journal Constitution has some decent reporters (although most of its editors are leftists), there is hope this might happen. |

#11 Agreed, but why should I pay to tempt fate? |

#10 Still no contest, I believe the M1s were uh assembled in Egypt by Egyptians. As far as the F-16s are concerned they are flown by uh.. Egyptian pilots. Now if the Egyptians can recreate a SAM belt ala 1973 then there's a problem... but do we or the Russ sell them the good SAMs? |

#9 I'd rather we drew our last check in favor of Egypt. Why these clowns have M1-A2s and F-16s is beyond me. Do we want to make it a contest the next time they attack Israel? |

#4 If I recall, "mullahgarchy" is the British/Commonwealth spelling. American English has elided the name to "malarky," though the original meaning remains. |

#3 How much would you like to bet that if we were to destroy the mullahgarchy™ in Iran, this shit would stop? |
