It is so sad that US still provide arms to the rebel groups and encourage them to fight with the Sudanese goverment. The only purpose it to weaken and overthrow Sudanese goverment. We should ask US goverment to stop doing this.

Are you really so ... ( 3 months ago by Bostonking8)

Are you really so naive to believe that Chad armed the rebel groups? Without the support from Washington, the Chad goverment can not do anything. Furthermore why there is nobody blame Chad? Clearly, US goverment support what Chad is doing.

You know, over the ... ( 3 months ago by scottyf44)

You know, over the weekend, Sudan chose to cut off ties from Chad, as opposed to the US. If there's evidence that the US is arming Darfuri rebels, why hasn't the Sudanese government mentioned anything of it yet??
When I have read independent reports that mention nothing on what you say, it would be logical to question what you say. Show me the proof. So far, Wikipedia isn't helping you when it mentions nothing on what you say (and I have looked up the entry on the Chadian war as well).

Just google with ... ( 3 months ago by Bostonking8)

Just google with the following key words(United States, SPLA); you will find a lot of information about how US armed the rebel groups. You can google with "Chad United States, you will find US troops are in Chad training some of the country's elite forces.

Good now that you got your few seconds of fame.. take this into mind... imagine you sllep peacefully in your home and suddenly a group of man break into your home tie you and your father up and take your mother and sister and rape the and beat the within an inch of their lives, and leave them for dead while you watch... and then they take you for all you have and decide to kill you... step into someone elses shoes and see what they have to deal with.

The SPLA is in ... ( 2 months ago by scottyf44)

The SPLA is in SOUTH Sudan, NOT Darfur. They made peace with Khartoum in a separate war. In fact, they formed part of the unity government from 2005 to 2007. JEM and SLA/M are the ones in Darfur. Show us evidence that these two groups are supported by the US.

Hi You are so ... ( 2 months ago by Bostonking8)

Hi You are so ignorant. You even don't know that SPLA is in Darfur!!! Do you have any credibility to talk about Darfur??? Just google with "SPLA" and "United States", you will find tons of information about how US armed and supported SPLA.

You know how you ... ( 2 months ago by scottyf44)

You know how you were saying what you say is on Wikipeida? Look up the the Wikipedia entry for "Sudan People's Liberation Army." It says in italics, near the top: "Not to be confused with Sudan Liberation Movement in Darfur." For crying out loud, stop mouthing off and criticizing others on topics you get confused easily on.

Let me tell you ... ( 2 months ago by Bostonking8)

Let me tell you again. SPLA is in Darfur and SPLA is supported by United States. Do you agree??

No. SPLA (Sudan ... ( 2 months ago by scottyf44)

No. SPLA (Sudan People's Liberation Army) is in South Sudan. The United States supported the SPLA up until the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) was signed in 2005, ending the north/south war. The Sudanese Liberation Army/Movement (SLA/M) is in Darfur. If you don't believe me, look it up on Wikipedia. Or any Human Rights Watch or Amnesty International report.

I think MR. libeezy4u that ,that raped by the bottle, fucked in the head LSD addicted mother of yours should cut off all the parts of your face while you are hanging upside down from your toes, and when finally your toes brake off. You can blindly kill your own mum, and after you will probilily enjoy her bleeding skeat.

Did you know US president has met with SLA leader Minni Minawi in 2006 to show his support to SLA? The JEM and SLA have killed more civilians than the Janjaweed. Have you ever heared BBC and CNN bash JEM and SLA? Why? Ask youself.

So, am I correct in saying that the SPLA is in South Sudan, and not Darfur, or am I correct?? RE: "The JEM and SLA have killed more civilians than the Janjaweed." You better have a good source on that, especially since the Janjaweed is backed by the might of the genocidal Sudanese state. Remember that the Sudanese Army is just as complicit at the janjaweed.
