Guess this means the Darfur massacre goes on ...

A US District Court has ruled that the government of Sudan has provided financing for al-Qaeda and as such is liable for the attack on the USS Cole. The government denies any role and is refusing to pay $8 million in penalties to the estates of the 17 murdered; although the amount awarded is far less than the $105 million sought.

What I'd really like to see is countries, and officials within them, indicted for their role in 9/11. Don't forget that 28 pages of the 9/11 Commission Report are still censored because they name names within the House of Saud. Given Saudi Arabia's longstanding connection to the Bush clan, it would be truly embarrassing to both 41 and 43 if it comes out (as it eventually must) that country was responsible for the attacks that day.

Meantime, Sudan can come up with another excuse to prevent peacekeepers from Darfur. After all, the UN is the tool of the US (according to Middle East and African fundamentalist governments).
