peace in the sudan

I'm the first to admit that I know very little about the troubles in the Sudan, and even less about the politics behind those troubles. But it appears a peace treaty has been signed.

The article notes that it will be difficult to implement and follow through on. I think it's at leat a big step in the right direction.

If only the big, bad U.S. leaders would choose to help other countries seek peace...

And while I'm on the topic of African countries needing help: Elias Fund (it has sound if you're at work or somewhere you need to mute speakers first)
