From Sudan-
An outspoken statement from the Episcopal Church of Sudan's Provincial Synod has called for an end to aerial bombings, the executions of civilians, and armed conflict - particularly the "cancer of the Western Equatoria State...the Lord's Resistance Army".
In the statement, released today after its three-day meeting, the Synod called repeatedly called for peace, and an end to conflict, and stressed its role in the life of the two countries.
"We strongly condemn the persistent aerial bombardment of civilian territories, summary executions of innocents, and combat in civilian areas in the Nuba Mountains, Southern Blue Nile, Upper Nile State and Unity State. The bombs that fall are indiscriminate; they kill and maim young and old, man and woman, Christian and Muslim. In short, innocent civilians have become a target and their suffering has become political currency.
