The U.S. declared Sudan a “state sponsor of terrorism” in 1993 for the stated reason that Sudan has connections with Palestinian groups, i.e., because Sudan supports the rights of Palestinians rather than supporting the Israeli apartheid state. In November 1997 the Clinton administration escalated the anti-Sudan rhetoric, declaring Sudan to be “an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States” and implementing economic sanctions, which are still in place, prohibiting most trade and financial transactions between Americans and Sudanese.
After the bombings of the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in August 1998, President Clinton launched a missile strike to destroy Sudan’s al-Shifa pharmaceutical plant, using as a pretext false allegations that this was a chemical weapons plant. In reality there were no chemical weapons. The missile attack completely destroyed Sudan’s capacity to produce veterinary medicines – livestock is an important part of the Sudanese economy, and some population groups subsist by raising livestock - and severely curtailed Sudan’s capacity to produce human medications to treat malaria and other serious health problems. Importing medicines is difficult given the poverty of the country. Many thousands of Sudanese died because of the destruction of the al-Shifa plant.
