South Sudanese celebrate independence with Israeli flags

Labels: » »
Here is a still from a video taken from BBC Arabic, reproduced in Al Jazeera and in other Arabic media, showing South Sudanese people celebrating their independence:


Interestingly, if you look at the video you can see that flags of other countries were being waved as well in the same scene, including the American flag seen here in the background:
Israel was one of the first states to recognize South Sudan when it declared independence.
if the South Sudanese are indeed friendly to Israel then it would be in her interests for South Sudan to prosper. The United States should take their aid for Egypt and give it to a country that is worthy of receiving help... not to mention greatfull. We don't know who Egypt is and what they are about, but we know who South Sudan is. Will Egypt make peace? They sure don't act like they will.
