Perhaps, but why post it on a thread about a Christian millenialist terrorist army in Uganda?
What I see in Sudan is that the conflict between Muslims and non-Muslims was peacefully resolved after almost 50 years of warfare. God willing, the government in Khartoum will keep this peace.
And finally, the LRA's victims are Christian and Muslim, so it doesn't fit neatly into your us-versus-them logic.
That would fit the Nuke Mecca crowd's worldview, but the unfortunate fact is that the "Lord" in "Lord's Resistance Army" refers to the Christian concept of a King of King and Lord of Lords.
And that's why the story is under-reported: it doesn't fit the preferred narrative of bloodthirsty Muslim hordes massacring innocent Christians.
If you consider Darfur to be Southern Sudan or Darfurians to be non-Muslims, then your opinions on Africa's conflicts between Muslims and non-Muslims are total BS.
A qucik glance at it shows many factual errors. Really what the map does is shows what you want to believe: that Christians and Muslims cannot live side by side in Africa. I would like to see where you found such a map, as I would like to see how it explains why Burkina Faso is apparently torn by religious conflict.
Please change the misleading title. This article does not concern jihadis, or muslims for that matter.
I think you wrapped this up.
