I want to refer to the gullibility of people who consider this crap an evidence of "progression". Sudan has tons over tons of problems that include wars, tribal wars and even a civil war, water problems -as I showed in the previous post-, and etc, so talking about an alcohol law does seem like nothing more than an attempt to milk the western public opinion. I mean feed your people first and stop the civil/tribal wars.
So any person buying this is either ignorant concerning politics and the state of Sudan, or plain simply gullible.
i.e this is a mere old tactic to milk western public opinion.

And the people who buy this as "a progression of Sudan" should be ashamed: are you that stupid, to believe that a country facing a water-war, tons of wars in Darfur accompanied by a corrupt army-grip of the government; is progressing by allowing non-Muslims to purchase alcohol??
Yes, I do. Would not changing the law have gotten them more water? No. Will changing the law get them more trade and tourism? Yes.
I see this kind of argument often: Why are we accepting refugees when we have homeless veterans? Why reform police when the black murder rate is so high? Why do anything if someone, somewhere, has a bigger problem?
Tourism ? I hope the tourists don't get kidnapped first.
You realize that the last time people protested in Sudan they got shot, right?
