rumors of war
October 13 2007
Southern Sudan is my most common destination with
the airplane. We have been increasingly busy there
as more missionaries move back in to minister and
build after so many years of war. And as I've flow
around these past six months, I have sensed a
growing discontent from the southern Sudanese about
the progress of peace in the country. Sometimes it
looks more like they are preparing for war instead
of rebuilding a country. Recent developments in
Sudan confirm this observation, and are
discouraging to see. Ministry in the south may soon
change... again.
From the New York Times:
"While much of the recent international attention on Sudan has been focused on Darfur, in the west, tensions over the fragile peace deal in the south have been bubbling for months. American officials recently warned that South Sudan could plunge back into war."
