The Failed State Lobby

so.. my friend in Khartoum sent me this article, with the preamble,
"welcome to the club{Having your country judged, dissected and ripped apart in the media,lol}"

im just gonna post this and leave it here.  Some of the stuff in this article is quite upsetting and I hate the, 'I heard, he said, one policy maker source said, it was reported' tone of it..... and mygod enough of the enough project.
