By Von Ronda Hauben (netizen2)
&#160;
The recent action of the International Criminal Court (ICC) in issuing a warrant for the arrest of the head of state of Sudan, President Omar al-Bashir, has created a significant controversy.
Journalists Ask UN's View of ICC Action Against Sudan
A press conference was held in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania on March 12 with the UN Deputy Secretary-General Ash-Rose Migiro. A...]]></description>

         <title>Legitimacy of Global Court (ICC) Questioned Over Sudan</title>

         <description><![CDATA[By Thalif Deen; Inter Press Service: 
The ongoing political crisis in Sudan is expected to worsen in the face of a rash of threats and warnings following the indictment last week of President Omar Hassan al-Bashir by the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague.
The beleaguered Sudanese president has threatened to expel diplomats from Khartoum and throw out more humanitarian organisations - in addition to the 13 that were run out of town last week - in retaliation for the indictment.

         <description><![CDATA[By John Prendergast and Omer Ismail :
For the first time in a quarter-century, Sudan has a chance for peace throughout the entire country. On the face of it, this assertion seems counterintuitive – even preposterous. Darfur is burning, and the historic 2005 agreement that brought peace between northern and southern Sudan is at risk of collapse. Sudan scholars throughout the world busy their days penning academic dirges, and diplomats despair. We've seen that many of California's anti-genocide...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[By Andrew Heavens and Skye Wheeler:
KHARTOUM/JUBA - A series of political squalls on the horizon in Sudan this year threaten to build into a perfect storm with the power to wreck a peace deal between north and south.
While much attention has focused on the conflict in the western Darfur region recently, the deal four years ago this Friday to end over two decades of north-south war looks ever more shaky as promises made at the time come due to be met.
Elections are scheduled by July ahead of a...]]></description>

Obama Team Seen As Tough on Darfur
NAIROBI - If the election of&#160;Barack Obama has been greeted with glee across much of Africa, there is at least one spot where the mood is decidedly different.
In the Sudanese capital of Khartoum these days, political elites are bracing for what they expect will be a major shift in U.S. policy toward a government the United States has blamed for orchestrating a violent...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[By Peter Eichstaedt, IWPR Africa editor, in Juba.
After announcing that he would sign a peace deal with the Ugandan government on Saturday, November 29, Ugandan rebel leader Joseph Kony again drew a crowd to the jungle camp of Nabanga on the border between South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo, DRC.

As Kony has done in the past, he balked, leaving a host of his Acholi tribal and cultural leaders waiting and wanting, along with the United Nations special envoy Joachim Chissano, the...]]></description>

         <title>Somali Pirates, Just Another Conspiracy?</title>

         <description><![CDATA[By Abdul Rahman Al-Rashed.
Before developing into the threat they are today, spreading terror throughout the region's oceans, these Somali pirates where said to be Israelis or Iranians.
The thoughts and fears of all sides were brought to the surface, as is customary when facing the impossible or the incomprehensible. Yet, it is still incomprehensible as to how mere gangs of possibly illiterate bandits are able to highjack large sophisticated ships in an area teeming with international naval...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[By Fredrick Nzwili, (World Council of Churches).
With its streets full of bicycle riders transporting luggage or passengers alongside mini buses, Gulu in northern Uganda looks as peaceful as any small African town. However, its inhabitants, who say now they want nothing but peace, have to come to terms with the terrible crimes that were committed here during 22 years of civil war.
Rev Julius Peter Olugu, the priest of the Anglican Ongako parish, told members of an international ecumenical...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[THE Southern African Development Community (SADC) has finally plucked up the courage to dispatch monitors to the borders between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Burundi, Rwanda and Uganda.
Unfortunately, knowing the borders are being monitored will not be much consolation to the hundreds of thousands of Congolese who have been forced to flee before advancing rebel insurgents.
The immediate cause of the fighting is the Congress in Defence of the People (CNDP), a rebel militia led by former...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[TAWILA CAMP,DARFUR - As Sudan lobbies the international community for support in its fight to ward off looming charges of genocide against its president, arguing they would endanger the "great strides" the government is making towards peace, people displaced by more than five years of fighting in Darfur tell a different story.&#160;
"Since 2004 until today, there has been no resolution. The problems have only gotten worse," said a sheikh at a camp for displaced people in Tawila, 50km west of...]]></description>
