news.bbc.co.uk— Might it work, or might we find ourselves with an open-ended commitment to policing a violent and divided region of the world, part of the problem and not the solution?

This is what I always say is the non-transparency of the international media. Well, I know Alex de Waal personally when introduced to me in the headquarters of the leading party in Eritrea, and I know his intentions.There is no wonder why the article on the BBC started with those lines: "Analysts say that Darfur is Rwanda in slow motion, that we should send troops to protect African civilians from their Arab killers and disarm the infamous Janjaweed". And then Alex wrote: "Ninety percent of the deaths occurred four to five years ago and the government and its militia proxies were the main culprits. Today many fewer are being killed and it is hard to make a moral distinction between the sides."Compare and get rationality to justify!What I am saying is that, Alex knows very well, the claims about Arabs and Islam are wrong. He knows very well! He knows that the problems in Darfur as the other problems in all Sudan regions are the cause of the marginal areas policy and the distribution of the development in the country. He knows very well that those problems are created by two kinds of dictatorships we call; the military dictatorship and the civil dictatorship. There is no Arabs or Islam in the political crises in Sudan. However, those dictators proved and tries to implement Islamic laws which we oppose.
