The government of Sudan, an overwhelmingly Muslim nation, has stripped between 500,000 and 700,000 Christians of their citizenship and ordered them to leave for the new nation of South Sudan, according to a report from Ecumenical News International (ENI).
Two million lost their lives in the long Sudanese civil war (1983-2005) between the Muslim north and the largely animist and Christian south. The civil war ended when President Omar Hassan Ahmad Al-Bashir, indicted by the International Criminal Court, granted the south limited autonomy. South Sudan gained its independence in July 2011.

I’m guessing there’s oil in the north?
I mean, didn't Clinton go to war against a former ally for exactly this kind of 'cleansing'?
I'll wait for the international outrage, but I won't hold my breath. Imagine the reaction of Ethiopia and Uganda declared they were expelling their Muslim minorities.
Cuius regio, eius religio anyone? The Peace of Westphalia comes to Sudan.
Let the Christians develop the south, then suffer invasion.
Thats about what the “civilized” muslims vood do.
I wonder if anyone would notice or care if we did tit-for-tat and expelled the Muslims from America? If it’s good for the goose, it’s good for the gander.
Obama smiles.
Is anyone helping the South Sudanese to arm and protect themselves?
Opposite is true, but the refining and transport capacity is in the North. Which was why the Muslim North (Khartoum) tried so hard to keep hold of the South by committing genocide, including the use of poison gasses the Syrians wanted to test, on the southern non-Muslims. This war is likely not over by a long shot.
I saw you post and Googled, “South Sudan, Israel”. Yup, they have an Ally.
And the Vatican says......?
Why do you think the Nazis forced all of the Jews into the Warsaw Ghetto?
Where is the outrage? Where are the beheadings? Where are the commies on the nightly news complaining about intolerance? Where are the femi-Nazis? Where are all the single digit IQ, wild eye morons, screaming in the streets?
Ok it is just Christians, never mind. I thought for a moment somebody offended a 6th century sand monkey pedophile MO-Ham-Mud camel fornicator.
Which is why South Sudan needs to ally themselves with neighboring Kenya, which is mostly Christian and has oil refinery and port facilities.
I pray the Lord strengthens them and foils their enemies just as he has done for Israel.
