South Sudan: US Empire Stirs Violent Brew Of Blood & Oil As China Threatens Western Hegemony
The
crisis in South Sudan is one of the most censored and under reported
topics in the media across all fronts. The civil war has left over
50,000 dead and nearly 3 million displaced -- and while incidents of
rape, torture, and bloodshed ebb and flow with the tides of war, the
conflict, and especially its political context, remains little
understood in the mainstream media because the true oil interests and
Western arms flowing to rebels to commit these crimes against humanity
remain unmentioned. Excellent piece by Eric Draitser .
South Sudan, play with a toy gun. President Barack Obama has issued
waivers that continue U.S. military assistance for South Sudan and six
other nations where child soldiers have been used.
