Machar may have miscalculated but South Sudan will come out as the loser even if he is crashed. He should not have taken up arms against a proper government duly mandated by the people in an election termed as successful by observers. I have no idea what his thinking is but using other means may have saved thousands of innocent young lives being wasted right now. The Dinka are only too happy to slide into what they have all along done best; fight. The Nuer are smart fighters too but the tide is against them in this conflict. Their only hope is Bashir….and oil. Time to stop the carnage. The region will suffer immensely.
