Displaced people arrive in South Sudan from Sudan through the Joda border crossing. Killing in Sudan has been non-stop since October. It’s the worst massacre yet in a civil war that has already killed 150,000 people and made one-third of the population refugees, writes Gwynne Dyer.

When Joe Biden, pictured, replaced Trump last January it looked like reviving the Iran nuclear deal would be simple.
