With both capitalists and communists interested in getting oil from Sudan, it's hard to see where the SPLA can look for outside help. If only Western companies were there and if the cold war were still going, you might see Cuban "volunteers"--maybe even some Chinese in the south.

Tomas, Well at least the facade is off of the NIF Goverment's so-called attempts to make peace with its southern populations... Note too that three entire brigades of the Sudan regular army have been cut off and isolated by the SPLA in the Kordofan to the west. They must either surrender, fight their way out...or seek relief to free them from their pocket..Expect Chinese troops to appear here.....

The U.S Nat'l Security Council is watching the situation closely.....

By the way, the coveted concessions are not those currently producing but some that lie further south into rebel territory...
