Reagan was an idiot. he's responsible for the wealth gap we have now, the "Trickle Down" economic theory did not work. There was no "Trickle down" at all, the rich got extremely richer while the middle class went down the tubes.

I don't think it's accurate to say that Omar Al Bashir, who was basically completely unknown to the public, was the brains behind the '89 coup. It's accepted that the opposite was true, with Turabi being widely seen as the mastermind, pulling the strings. It was Turabi who brought in the Islamic laws after the coup having been the speaker of the parliament and Attorney General. At the time no one thought Al Bashir would last very long, but obviously his rule lasted 30 years... In addition, Hassan Al Turabi and Sadig Al Mahdi weren't cousins, Turabi was married to Al Mahdi's sister. They were brothers in law. Which I'm sure would have made Eid celebrations awkward. 15:26

This video history of the conflict is better than most; the few errors, I only caught because I have personally met many of the principals. Many of the discrepancies are tightly held information, such as the actual location of Osama bin Laden, and the strategic minerals of Darfur and of South Sudan.

I think part of why post colonial Africa is so misunderstood is because of how complicated it all is. These places have dozens of different power structures in the same country, and they all interact and tug on each other. The history of most other regions is simple by comparison.
