The Sudan: Why The Arab Summit Failed

According to Debka, this year’s Arab league Summit was a non event. There are several interesting reasons why. One is the Sudan and the spillage of the war into Chad. What DOES Chad have that Israel, France and Libya want so badly???

Uranium....France depends on it heavily, Qaddafi wants it, and so does Israel, along with its lovely petroleum reserves.

The war in the Sudan has proven highly uncomfortable for Arab leaders, with its appallingly high death toll. To date a quarter million people have died due to genocidal warfare and humanitarian abuses. Lovely. Why such an atrocious death toll? Because.. the ultimate aim of radical Islamists is to wipe out the black African population and take control of their vast oil and mineral reserves, including uranium.

So, King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, Hozne Mubarek of Egypt, Qaddafi of Libya, Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali, and Sultan Qamoos of Oman daintily sidestepped the whole issue.

Saudi because of its association with Bin Laden and the Sudan, coupled with an attitude of indifference, made attending rather uncomfortable. Oh, did I forget to mention that because the summit was held in Khartoum, it was just a tad bit too threatening for the over wealthy and manipulative Wahabi zealots of Al Saud.

Qaddafi is pouting over the fact his "friendly" overtures to Chad were not well received:)

Hozne Mubarek damned near died in an assassination attempt nearby.

"On Iraq, Arab leaders had hoped that the three major parliamentary blocs elected three months ago – Shiites, Kurds and Sunnis - would finally getting their act together and form a national unity government in Baghdad in time for the Khartoum summit. This would have enabled the meeting to collectively support the new administration and endorse the political process the Americans are promoting in Iraq. But with government negotiations still up in the air, and no real influence among any of those blocs, the participants are left without a policy option."
