Dear Arab World: Take Sudan and other Neighbors to Task for Distorting both Islam and democracy today!?

By Kevin Stoda

Let me recall the following!

--In the early 1990s there were democratically held elections in Algeria. Islamic extremist sponsored candidates won. The West refused to support the Islamicist protests when the results of the elections were thrown out. Civil war ensued in Algeria.

--Now, in Sudan another anti-election trend is joining the ones that occurred in other Arab countries over the last two decades

Alright-civil war has been going on in Sudan long before this tiny election in Khartoum this last month. But, it's the anti-democratic lesson being taught children (the future) that is of concern here.

Where did it take place?
