Operation Sudanese Freedom?

Where will John Kerry send those 135,000 American troops once he’s pulled them out of Iraq? The Sudan, more than likely, precisely because we have no strategic interests at stake there. Yep, the “Clinton Doctrine” returneth. The roaring irony is that the country really best situated to intervene “multilaterally” in Sudan is…France, which has ample forces twiddling their thumbs away in nearby Chad and Djibouti instead of giving us a hand in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The next time Black Jacque Chirac tries to lecture us about the need to prevent another “genocide,” he should be told in no uncertain terms what, um, to do with them.
