African Christians fear own government on 'jihad'

African Christians fear own government on 'jihad'


''United Nations aid agencies report that over 300,000 Sudanese were killed and 2.7 million Sudanese were left homeless in the last civil war.''

The chief diplomat of the autonomous Government of South Sudan says that war between his region and the country's central Islamic government is unavoidable unless the world presses Sudan to keep the terms of the 2005 Naivasha Agreement that formed the nation's current structure.
International Christian Concern reports that South Sudan government chief diplomat Ezekiel Lol Gatkuoth made the statements in a Washington interview with the human rights agency.
The ICC's Jonathan Racho, however, says the cause of the civil war goes beyond Sudanese President Oman al-Bashir's failure to implement the peace
accord.
Racho says it's a jihad campaign.
"This campaign will be another jihad in Sudan between the Muslim government in the north and the predominantly Christian and animist south. In Sudan when we say Muslims, we mean the government of the President Omar al-Bashir," Racho explains.
"And when we say jihad in this situation, it's not an Islamic extremist group;" Racho adds, "it's the government of Sudan itself."
