What is there to be gained from sending troops into Sudan? It's basically a low-level civil war there. Foreign troops will either have to do nothing (peacekeepers), and be useless; or they have to actively fight any and all armed groups (peace enforcers), and be open to a world of dead and wounded, and a lot of criticism for "human rights violations".

The situation in Iraq was different, in that there was a central government doing the killing. In Sudan it's random groups of people, blending into the population as a whole...
