The Sudan's Mohammed Mahgoub has reason to resent Uganda's Milton Obote, who harbors Sudanese rebels. Congo Strongman Joseph Mobutu is no friend of Tanzania's Julius Nyerere, who helped funnel arms to the Simba rebels. Since Tanzania is currently a base for the enemies of Malawi's Premier Kamuzu Banda, the crotchety autocrat stayed...
