John Ukec Lueth Ukec, the Sudanese ambassador to Washington, has threatened to take away the United States’ access to Coca-Cola in response to sanctions against Khartoum. Nevermind that you’re complicit in the genocide in Darfour, and apparently an idiot too. And nevermind that Sudan’s supplies of gum arabic can’t be as critical to the soft-drink industry as you claim, since your own government predicts the sanctions will have little effect on your economy. Mr. Ukec, if this is what it takes to get your government to cease its mass murder campaign, I’ll stop drinking Coca-Cola.
