Khartoum now has little choice but to counter-attack, as Mr Kiir must have
anticipated. Thanks to his fecklessness, President Omar al-Bashir, the
indicted war criminal who leads Sudan, has been given the chance to pose as
the injured party. The border between South Sudan and its neighbour has
never been agreed, nor has any viable division of the oilfields. Instead of
starting a new war, Mr Kiir probably wants to use Heglig oilfield as a
bargaining counter to extract concessions from Khartoum at the negotiating
table. But this is a deeply cynical and irresponsible game. Already, the
fighting has probably displaced as many as 100,000 people. Sudan’s
retaliation will doubtless inflict yet more suffering. If Mr Kiir
miscalculates and another conflict does erupt, he will deserve the
condemnation of his people and the world.
