Sudanese Troops To Be Deployed As Peacekeepers In Somalia ("Sudanese Peacekeepers?")

The Somalian parliament has rejected the proposal that peacekeeping troops serving in their country be drawn from the neighboring countries of Kenya, Ethiopia and Djibouti.

According to the BBC, "The Ugandan foreign Minister said the decision was made out of respect for the sensitivities of the Somalis, (especially) Somali warlords (who) have said they will attack troops from neighboring states - especially from rival Ethiopia - if they form part of a peacekeeping force."

More acceptable were troops from Sudan and Uganda (yes I'm serious, I'm not making this up).

The article added that, "Somalia's government and parliament are currently based in Kenya because the Somali capital, Mogadishu, is considered too dangerous."

(Warning: Incoming sarcasm alert): I'm sure that the Sudanese troops, who are currently busy slaughtering black Africans in their own country's Darfur region, will go a long way towards bringing stability to Somalia.
Please read the article for yourself. It is even more surreal than Salvador Dali.
