The UN Teaches A Lesson In Sudan

When Disarmament Equals Death, Contentions, July 11, 2009. "David B. Kopel, the Research Director of the Independence Institute, and two of his colleagues related a fascinating and depressing story about the disarmament process in Sudan. In 2005, the U.S. brokered the Comprehensive Peace Agreement, which is supposed to devolve most power in southern Sudan to an autonomous government. Part of this process was the disarmament of civilians, and of militias that were not to be incorporated into the Sudan People’s Liberation Army."
