Bashir Faces Saudi Criticism

Interesting. A number of well-known Saudi columnists have been quite critical of President Bashir and his continued practice of terrorizing the people of Darfur. This article has a good roundup of the views from Saudi columnists, and I think these perspectives offer a powerful reminder that the debate about Sudan is ultimately about the rights of the people on the ground. A second article notes that a number of Arab states fear considerable “international embarrassment” if President Bashir attempts to visit.
