Obama softens approach to Sudan

Obama softens approach to Sudan

http://www.boston.com/news/nation/wa...oach_to_sudan/

I guess Darfur is toast

".........The friendlier approach has alarmed some activists and former and current US officials who say the country could fall back into bloodshed and civil war unless the Obama administration strongly pressures Sudan to fully implement the peace agreement between Khartoum and the south brokered under former president George W. Bush.........."

Darfur is kinda' to the west but the southern portion of Sudan has little in common with central and northern Sudan. The "friendlier approach" may give a green light for the government to resume strong arm tactics.
