A have an acquaintance who is a German National and works for one of the largest construction companies in the world -which I won’t name. Years ago they were working in South Sudan and they heard a credible report that a force from the North was heading their way, among them would be Muslim fundamentalist for sure. He said they held a vote and it was to flee south. They heard later the group took their site. Had they stayed at best they would have been held for random, worst they’d be dead.
