A country in serious trouble because of a long civil war which has developed into a Genocide by the janjaweed. Over 300,000 have died and more die each month...over a million are homeless...they are fleeing to neighboring Chad. They need help, the UN should send troops.
Sudan isn't the same as Iraq because Iraq wasn't in the middle of a genocide...don't let Sudan be another Rwanda!

Get the Sugandhi mug.The largest country in Africa. Sudan is rich with various ethnicities and religions. People like to say that the civil war in Sudan is caused by racism. It has nothing to do with races, you'll find different ethnicities on both sides of the war. It's just a movement against the current government. Sudan remains strong, and sudanese people remain proud.
Don't send your troops to my country and "free" Sudan and turn it into another Iraq, you'll just make matters worse. Stay the fuck out :)

Get the sudan mug.def. A euphemism used to explain to someone that the task they wish to accomplish is substantially more difficult than they had originally thought.
Origin: In the popular movie "White Men Can't Jump," Billy Hoyle (Woody Harrelson) has squandored his earnings from basketball hustling, and needs a favor from a security guard friend (Zeke, played by Kevin Benton) of his hustling partner Sydney Deane (Wesley Snipes). Zeke can help Billy's girlfriend Gloria (Rosie Perez) to get onto Jeopardy, but he isn't going to make it easy for Billy, who has to make a basket in order to get the favor. As Billy lines up to shoot on the court, Zeke points to the backboard painted to represent the flag of an African country and says,
"No, no, no, no, Billy boy, this is Ghana. You my friend, are shooting for the Sudan" as he points to the backboard at the opposite end of the court.
"And a hook shot."
