The rebel leader, John Garang, was greeted at an airport in southern Sudan by well-wishers. A photo that accompanied the article pictured Garang, basking in the welcome as he stepped around a dead cow. The photo's caption reads as follows:
John Garang, top left, leader of the Sudanese People's Liberation Army, steps behind a cow that was slaughtered as a peace offering at the Rumbek airport.Garang told a reporter, "You can see the people are very happy."
Yes, but a fireworks show or a lengthy round of applause might have been a better, less violent way for them to show their happiness. I suppose that suggestion makes me an insensitive, western-centric pig.*
* To everyone, that is, but the members of PETA.
