| Sudanese peace talks to break 22 January, Taha to head for Mecca |
| 2004-01-21 |
| Sudanese papers today said the peace talks which are currently taking place in the Kenyan town of Naivasha between the government and the SPLM, would be suspended starting from Thursday [22 January] until after the [Muslim feast of] Eid al-Adha, which is scheduled for the first week in February. The Sudanese paper Al-Hayyat said the peace talks would be suspended on Thursday and the first vice-president, Ali Uthman Muhammad Taha, would return to Khartoum on Friday [23 January].The paper added that Taha would leave for Mecca to perform the holy pilgrimage. This shows Taha is not serious about peace. I nominate Sudan to be next in the war on terror. |

| #1 Sudan doesn't need to be invaded. Just give the Christian and animist southerners enough weapons and ammo, supply the eastern and western rebels, and let the three meet in Khartoum. They can hang all the mullahs, imams, and other clerics, split the country among them, and go on about life with fewer worries. The multitude of weapons confiscated in Iraq would make a good start... |
