The insurgents, representing the predominantly animist and Christian blacks of the south against the predominantly Muslim and Arab north, have cut off all but air links between the two parts of the country. Suwar al Dahab promptly sent a message to the rebels' chieftain, former army Colonel John Garang, suggesting that he was ready for talks. By the time he did, however, Garang, who has a Ph.D. in economics from...
