It is refreshing, isn't it, to see the UN Security vote on an issue with a unanimous decision as they did on Wednesday urging the two Sudans to halt hostilities or face sanctions. The AU will facilitate talks between the two states and hopefully find a lasting solution that will allow a war weary people to start living near to normal lives. It would be great for South Sudanese to take electricity, running water and medical care for granted within the next decade in their new country. You cannot hold entire generations of people hostage to war and misery, trapped in a life of uncertainty. It is the worst form of torture. Bravo to both the UN and the AU for their efforts.
