Sudanese President al-Bashir, indicted on war crimes charges this week by the International Criminal Court, is planning to take the whole country down with him it seems. In retaliation for the indictment, al-Bashir is kicking out foreign aid workers who are responsible for supplying millions of Sudanese refugees displaced by violence.
