<<<, What a tremendously brilliant strategy- touch off genocide in Kosovo and bomb Serbia back into the Stone Age- that should certainly assure stability in an already unstable region!>>>> <<<As long as the United States continues to "negotiate" with a government that shelters terrorists, makes its targets churches and hospitals, and defenseless women and children, there is little hope for improvement in the Sudan.>>>> Notice a pattern here????? As long as the government in power is suppressing it's people, the US has NO problem.... Suharto,, Marcos,, Baby Doc,,, Batista, even Saddam Hussein---etc,, I can't remember them all, but there are plenty.... If I am not correct, I think that there is a tremendous amount of oil in the Sudan, as well as other resources,,, the same goes for Yugoslavia....

Your right. We are setting a dangerous precedent in the world with our interventionist strategy. Since Rawanda and the Sudan are outside of NATO's region they have an excuse; but they DO NOT have an excuse in Turkey where the Kurds are being slayed. I suppose the U.S. wants to foot the bill for being the Global Police in the new world ?

"We have sent letters to [Secretary of State] Mrs. [Madeleine] Albright, to [National Security adviser] Sandy Berger, to the president. They have done nothing," Mr. Wolf said. But why should they? The intertribal conflict there has lasted for 15 years and is incredibly complex. Sounds EXACTLY like Yugoslavia, except that there the internal conflict has lasted for closer to 1500 years. But the Sudan is not in Europe, so it doesn't threaten the stability of France and Germany and England. Like the Yugoslav civil war does. (Ha ha)
