#2 This crap between Sudan and Chad has been going on for 30 years : only the outside players change. Khaddafi one year, the French the next, the US on both sides at different points, the Soviets and then the Russians, the Chinese, the Arabs, etc. The problem with the two countries is the problem of almost all of post-colonial Africa : the boundaries of the countries do NOT reflect the facts on the ground regarding the various indigeneous populations, and so you have running sores border wars between the concerned countries.
