Turabi urges reconciliation among the Sudanese?

Al-Turabi said heatedly "we have learned the lesson after the harm done to us by military coups". He urged political parties to wage elections through unifying ranks against Al-Bashir's ruling party, the National Congress; Al-Sharq al-Awsat reported. Full story Sudan Tribune 13 Feb 2007.

Note, the report tells us:
He said that the lack of justice domestically has brought in the International Criminal Court, adding that some influential persons fear they will meet the same fate as Serbia's rulers.

He made redressing this situation contingent on reconciliation among the Sudanese. "Reconciliation among the people of Sudan can be revived and this can supersede international courts", he said.
I wonder what Mr Turabi thinks about the janjaweed and Abyei.
