Why wouldn't those exact jump offs work? |
Because they don't border Sudan.
We need permission to fly over another country. France won't let us at all and they are supposed to be an ally. Remember all the shit we had to go through with Turkey to use their eastern border as a staging point? Egypt is going to ask for a lot to do the same.

Tanks don't float. We'd need a secures beach or port to uload all the landing craft. I doubt any of those countries (some of which are openly hostile towards us) are going to jump at the chance to have Marines running through their borders.
