As a white man with fair skin and blue eyes I feel a connection to dark Africans and Africa, like we are just distant brothers. Africans are amazing people.

@zKa0sz why nuke a group of peaceful people? The dinka are very peaceful people. They don't want any problems...if anything, nuke the north of sudan where the muslims oppress any non-muslims. You are so dumb. I hope someone rapes and kills you. You only deserve death. You are worthless.

[zKa0sz]

Fucking nuke the Sudan bastards!
