Too farfetched? There are legions of Janjaweed groups going around and killing and raping, as you know. Sudan has seen the deaths of millions. These groups are armed by Khartoum, have excellent logistical and commutations capabilities.

I would submit the scenario is not farfetched at all. The when may be the question, but the if is very real.

Seriously, you figure it could be stopped by finding field commanders and torturing them until they tell their troops to stop?

Yes, that’s pretty farfetched. For one thing, please note your ‘armed by Khartoum’. This is not something that will be fixed by pulling out one guy’s toenails. Or even several guys’.
