The Sudan state have been in crisis for too long and rarely did any of the numerous political organizations in the country take the risk and the burden to debate fight and negotiate for the transformation of the country from a decadent military coup prone underdeveloped state to a viable democratic country; and from a religious fanatic and racist state to a multi-cultural and multi-religious tolerant state.
