chinu. I asked you if any religion was involved in the atrocities ongoing in the Sudan and sort of suggested the islam may be involved and here is your reply.

you said..."The Rwandan tribe (Hutus) are just pure uncivilized tribes who loot and rampage rival tribes. Africa still lives in the world of tribal rivalry. Includes Sudan too. Nothing with religion. We should not attempt to make it more than it is."....

To say look how bad these other peoples are as a defence for islam is stretching it a bit don't you think?

You say it has nothing to do with the islam organized religion.

I know how much you like and defend islam no matter what this religion may be responsible for but it is time to wake and face facts.

Do Hutu's behead, stone to death, cut off hands and feet of people for religious reasons? do Hutu's behead innocent people for shock, terror and media value?

....."More subtle but equally divisive to any settlement on this frontier of Islam was the determination by the revolutionary regime in Khartoum to impose its Islamist ideology on all Sudanese and Arab culture, language, and militant Islam as the foundation of Sudanese society--when less than half the Sudanese claim Arab origins and another third are non-Muslims. The Arabo-centric enthusiasm of Bashir and his National Islamic Front (now the National Congress) government reopened old and deep wounds in Sudanese society. The injection of an Islamist ideological and racist definition as to who is "Arab" and who is zuruq, black, or the more pejorative epithet abid, slave, to distinguish between Arab and African has generated a devastating tragedy that justifies killing, rape, and enslavement of these marginalized people by a cynical and dysfunction government in denial."......
