Warsai,

Help me with this. Are they glossing over the religious conflict? Is this Christianity vs. Islam?

I either missed it in the article or ?

Ah, here is a clue:

"The UN Security Council passed a US-drafted resolution calling on Sudan's government to halt atrocities by Arab militias within 30 days or face further action."

Oh! I didin't mean your summarizing! I meant that the authors of this article seem to be leaving out the under-current of the conflict: Christianity vs. Islam.

I find it interesting that they won't just come out and say that the Islams are killing Christians. They certainly point it out when Christians are killing Islamists.

I concur.

Selective journalism? For what audience? The motivation for doing this baffles me.
