Peace. North and South Sudan, please sit down and negotiate to share the oil.The South Sudanese have suffered enough( 2million dead, famines & slavery)n also North economy. You both are victims of the USA/UK/Europe/Israel cabal (NWO)where rich Western bankers/leaders/oil conglomerates divide you & make u fight each other for their oil interests.North Sudan, fight your real Western enemies, not South. Pity Southerners - they're so poor and suffered so much.Hope both sides see they r victims.Love.
