I know next to nothing about Sudan, and the last place I'd consider starting to change that would be a party newspaper. Even though I'm a big fan of Workers Vanguard, I'm skeptical of lots of stuff they write. Parties take a "strategic view of the truth," to quote an old acquaintance of mine, characterizing a certain left celebrity who shall remain nameless.
