The conflict in Sudan is increasingly spilling across the border into Chad #Tchad. The Government of Chad announced that seven Chadian soldiers were killed during an armed incursion into its territory by elements of Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces. Authorities in N’Djamena strongly condemned the violation of national sovereignty, warned that any further attacks would prompt an immediate response, and reiterated Chad’s strict neutrality in the Sudanese conflict.
In the same context, the Rapid Support Forces reportedly shelled the Sudanese border town of Al-Tina adjacent to Chad and redeployed reinforcements from South Darfur toward Kordofan, including tanks and electronic warfare equipment.

People are being integrated all right, the people being stabbed. The program will end when there are two few Dutch people willing to signup to be assaulted.

[PJ] If you wanted to understand the stakes of the federal immigration enforcement in Minneapolis, few moments are quite as revealing as this exchange to show the differences between whistle-blowing, violent, and honking radicals and a federal agent in the Minneapolis—St. Paul area.
