The US is trying to split apart syria and iran in order to try and prevent one retaliating when the other is attacked. the war in lebanon last year was a means to push hezbollah fighters out of range of southern israel so they can't do as much damage when syria and iran get flattened. the problem in the sudan is being pushed (indirectly) by the CIA and whitehouse, because a nato peace keeping mission is one possible and liekly method of keeping the peace, and militarising the region for US troops. that area also happens to be oil rich. militarising the sudan would also keep the chinese out of there, and they've already got their noses into the african oil and economies. china also supplies weaponry and arms to the sudan, some of which may be fuelling the problems.
