• I removed the part in "Get in" saying that you should not bring up political/military topics on border posts. I think this is common knowlegde if you travel countrys that your cov considered a country of evil - Peter 02:46 CET, 21 June 2006 (EST)

Arabization

Author wrote: "Note: program of "Arabization" in process" I have a question - what the hell is "Arabization?" Who administers this "program?" The janjaweed, which murders hundreds of thousands black Africans or non-Arabs? Why doesn't WikiTravel call this "program" what it really is - a genocide of non-Arabs? I'm going to change this. WikiTravel cannot have any credibility if one shred of false information is given. Sapphire 04:19, 1 April 2006 (EST)

This is a travel guide, not the International Court of Justice. Neither term belongs here. Jpatokal 07:21, 1 April 2006 (EST)

Evan and Maj obviously have strong enough faith in you so I'm not going to argue about this, but I wish to make one point clear. I was not talking about the Sudanese government and the two major rebel groups, the Justice and Equality Movement and the Sudan Liberation Movement. I was talking about civilians. The problem I have is we are not being truthful. I could care less about the "parties" what I care about is trying to convey the truth about a situation which is deadly enough for civilians that don't pick up arms. What is to stop the Janjaweed, known to be sponsored by the Sudanese government because the VP spilled the beans on that, from prevent foreigners who have seen too much from killing the foreigners there. Additionally, a major part of traveling is traveling with a conscience - I.e. Eco-tourism. WikiTravel users need to be aware of the fact that hundreds of thousands of civilians have died. Would a traveler go to Sudan and spend money, some of which will be taxed and go to the government, which could help finance this war if he/she/they knew the truth that it's not just a rebel group fighting for the independence of the Darfur region, but instead a genocide. I sure wouldn't. A quick survey of 25 people only one person would tell you that they know the situation in Sudan is genocide, not a armed conflict, which, unfortunately the warning does not convey the full severity of.

sudan is a great country
