Sudanese president claims U.S., Britain conspiring against his country
2006-09-01
Sudan's president accused the United States and Britain Tuesday of conspiring against his country as diplomats at the United Nations said Washington and ally London want the Security Council to adopt a resolution in two days giving the U.N. authority over peacekeepers in Darfur. President Omar al-Bashir staunchly opposes the deployment of U.N. peacekeeping troops in the remote, western region to replace an African Union-led force there now.

"Everybody knows the Americans and British are scheming against the Sudan," al-Bashir said at a rally to muster support for his opposition to the proposed deployment. "We shall not be the first country to be recolonized in Africa. ... We are free and shall not be enslaved," al-Bashir told about 2,000 workers belonging to a federation of unions.

Sounds like he stole one of Bob's old speeches. Who's he think he is, the Joe Biden of Africa...

#4  Conspiring cannot be a one-way street monopoly of mooselimbs, must it? Who sez others can't do the same? And they should do that mostly for a better world than definite enslavement under i-slam.

#2  Once again, wasn't it Arab and Black Muslims raiding the sub-Sahara for slaves before whitey even knew about the New World?

Wasn't it those same people who brought the 'property' they had looted to the harbor enclaves, which the Euros set up in Africa, to sell in the 17th and 18th centuries?
