Eric of Straight White Guy sent me a link to a briefing on Sudan's checkered past involvement in terrorist activities.

That's got my attention, but... 1996?

I'm still looking for a recent threat assessment, and some arguments that it's better for the war effort that we invest our blood in Sudan instead of elsewhere, or whether we really need to keep our boys freed up & flexible, so as to deter the major anal irritants (N. Korea, Iran, Syria) from trying anything funny should they get it in their heads that we don't have the manpower to respond.

UPDATE: 1998 (also from Eric) - a little more informative.
