The Chinese are not going to let us go and shut off their oil production plants. It will only serve to become another costly occupation in a place where nothing will change after we leave. Sad but true.

We enforce the no-fly zone, we demand an end to all ethnic violence and we provide troops if necessary to safeguard the innocents. It would help if we had capable statesmen instead of politicians in the White House, maybe we could recruit other nations to help if we went about it correctly but in any event...the Sudanese army gets around on horseback, it is absolutely a lie that we can't protect people against the violence!
