it's a bit outdated--it seems to have been written around 2001--but it took about 30 seconds to find and abuot 5 minutes to read and gives enough background information to shortcircuit this idiotic "something must be done about islam" line that keeps cropping up here.
think about it: if you're going to talk about this situation IN THE SUDAN, dont you think it reasonable to talk about the sudan?
and such articles are easy to pile up---it just requires a *little bit* of research---nothing stressful i'm sure you can do it. it will take you less time that it will to write another rehash of the huntington "thesis."
