Now you know why the West and Israel are keen on partition of the Sudan
"
Salva Kiir Mayardit the President of Southern Sudan and leader of the ruling Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM) said that he does not rule out the establishment of "good relations" with Israel including the opening of an Israeli embassy in Juba, capital of the southern province, in the event the Southerners chose to secede in a referendum due early next year. According to him, the Jewish state "is the enemy of the Palestinians only, and not an enemy of the South."" (thanks Khalid)
