Chad

a convoy of SUVs rolls into the capital of Chad over the weekend and tries to overthrow the government. there's fighting, dead bodies everywhere, a short cease fire to let civilians evactuate to cameroon or wherever they can run to. these rebels are threatening to attack the EU peacekeeping force who are there to protect the thousands of refugees from Darfur. essentially, this whole region is going to shit faster than an eli manning touchdown pass. oh, but you wouldn't know since there's no mention of it on front page of the New York Times, CNN or the Washington Post because last night the Giants happened to overthrow the Eagles in the super bowl. incredible.
