Over two million casualties and its been going on for two decades. Amazing. I wish them luck in finalizing their peace. There was much jubilation among the hundreds of Sudanese refugees who had come to witness the ceremony, where Sudanese government officials and the Sudan People's Liberation Army pledged to end their war. The deal signed late Wednesday sets up a power-sharing transitional government and it settles three territorial disputes that had fueled the 21-year conflict, Africa's longest civil war. Earlier accords set the terms for dividing Sudan's oil wealth and created joint military commissions. Mediators say a permanent cease-fire should be signed by mid-July. I'm so glad the US didn't try to "help." At least this administration. Oh wait, Colin My Lai apologist and "Saddam has tons of Anthrax!!" Powell chimes in: Secretary of State Colin Powell responded to the signing with a statement saying the United States looks forward to a new relationship with Sudan. He said bilateral relations can begin to be normalized once the problems of Darfur are resolved. Hopefully by then you will out of a job.
