I haven't been following this whole discussion, so I'm just dropping in
a small titbit of information.

A Sudanese Communist Party comrade who I asked about the South Sudan
struggle said that, apart from working (to some extent) with the
(northern-based) SCP against the Khartoum regime, the SPLA/SPLF were
very friendly with Cuba. I don't remember how far the support extended,
I think to some material support, anyway this would seem rather strange
for a group that is controlled by the USA.
