Around Africa: Slamming the Sudan

And here is why, readers:

".... Sudan (a Muslim nation with an independent foreign policy which supports Palestinian rights). To an overwhelming degree, the propaganda campaign behind the so-called “Darfur genocide campaign’ is the Israeli state and its political apparatus in the US, namely the Zionist Power Configuration. Most of the media celebrities, led by prominent Hollywood Zionist director Steven Spielberg, have engaged in an exercise of selective moral indignation – supporting Israel, while ignoring its starvation blockade of Gaza, supporting the US occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq while attacking China for its ‘immoral’ oil contracts with the Sudan.

The CPMAJO has focused on the Darfur ‘genocide’ because by doing so it favors the brutal separatists in southern Sudan, armed and advised by Israel, as a means of depriving pro-Palestinian Sudan of a large oil rich region in the south of the country. The Darfur campaign deliberately and systematically excludes any mention of the Israeli Supreme Court’s approval of Israel’s food and fuel blockade and deliberate prevention of the movement of medical personnel in Gaza and the West Bank, its approval of Israel’s practice of torture (‘forceful interrogations’), armed assaults on the vital infrastructure and civilian population centers of Gaza.
Hollywood’s Darfur sideshow is a sham propaganda effort at selective humanitarian concern...."

Sort of a one-two punch, huh?


Thus you get this in the Boston Glob:

"Once again, world is silent on Darfur" by Eric Reeves | March 26, 2010

I don't see him complaining about Israel's treatment of Palestinians, do you?


Yeah, after a while, the agenda-pushing jewspaper begins to make one sick.

FOR ALL the attention Darfur has received and for all the humanitarian assistance that it has been provided, innocent civilians are once again being killed as part of a ruthless counterinsurgency campaign by the Khartoum regime.

Of course, when it is USrael doing the killing in a "
counterinsurgency campaign" it's okay.

Poised to retain power in next month’s compromised national elections, this regime will continue its 20-year history of civilian destruction throughout Sudan until the world gets serious about pressuring it to stop....

One word for you: ISRAEL!

There is a ghastly familiarity to Khartoum’s assault on the region, including deployment of combat aircraft as well as Janjaweed militia forces.

But MISSILES STRIKES and PRIVATE MERCENARY FORCES from AmeriKa are JUST FINE!


Many reports confirm the brutal nature of attacks on civilians, chiefly those from the Fur tribe — the largest in Darfur and the primary target of Khartoum’s counterinsurgency war.

Reports from where and whom?


Although purportedly directed against the increasingly fragmented Sudan Liberation Army faction led by Abdel Wahid al-Nur, the widespread attacks are clearly bent on razing entire villages and pillaging whatever has survived at this point in the war. A way of life is being destroyed.

But it seems to be OKAY if ISRAEL DOES IT to Palestinians!!!


Estimates of civilian casualties exceed 400.

Not to downplay the deaths, but that's it?


The French medical aid organization Medecins du Monde estimates that 100,000 civilians have been displaced by recent violence, which has compelled the organization to evacuate its personnel. A vast population is now left without humanitarian assistance, becoming more vulnerable each day.

I HATE to keep beating a dead horse, but GAZA!!!


The assault on Jebel Marra, long a rebel stronghold, occurs even as the international community congratulates the Khartoum regime for signing a peace agreement with the rebel group Justice and Equality Movement.

They said they were not informed (see below, readers)!!!

This congratulation comes despite deep suspicion of the group by Darfuri civil society, which was excluded from the peace negotiations in Doha, Qatar.

Khalil Ibrahim, the movement’s leader, has an ugly role in Sudan’s recent history. He was an eager member of Khartoum’s National Islamic Front in the 1990s, embraced its radical Islamism, and engaged in military campaigns in southern Sudan as part of the paramilitary Popular Defense Force. These campaigns during Sudan’s North-South civil war included civilian massacres, rapes, and human enslavement.

Yeah, whatever.

I'm tired of the f***ing Zionist ax-grinding.

Even so, Scott Gration, the US special envoy to Sudan, declared that the Feb. 23 agreement between Khartoum and the Justice and Equality Movement marks “an unprecedented opportunity for a significant reduction in violence in Darfur.’’

I lost count.

Other international actors have been more restrained, but nonetheless enthusiastic....

Yeah, the WAR DAILY CAN'T STAND the thought of PEACE BREAKING OUT ANYWHERE!!!!

That agreement, also signed by only one rebel faction, worked to splinter Darfur’s rebel groups, failed to include Darfuri civil society, and imposed no obligations on Khartoum. It serves as an example of how not to conduct peace negotiations....

No, you need to look a little further east for that.

Meanwhile, ethnically-targeted civilian destruction continues in Darfur; international vows to end these atrocity crimes remain empty. President Obama — so forceful about Darfur during his campaign — has appointed an envoy who seems more interested in accommodating Khartoum than pressuring the regime to halt its military campaign. Without a fundamental shift in US policy, hundreds of thousands of Darfuri lives are at increased risk.

Oh, he is disappointed in Obomber, hanh?

Get in line!

Yeah, about that peace deal the agenda-pushing war-monger is hammering:

"Sudan signs cease-fire with rebel coalition" by Associated Press | March 19, 2010

DOHA, Qatar — Sudan’s government and a collection of Darfur rebel groups signed a cease-fire yesterday, the second such deal in less than a month with a key rebel faction, opening the way for political negotiations ahead of a full peace agreement.

I am ALWAYS for PEACE, readers!!!

The Sudanese government now has truces with two major rebel blocs, leaving mainly the Sudan Liberation Movement led by Abdelwahid Elnur, based in Paris, on the outside — though the history of the conflict has been marked by failed peace agreements....

And the Zionist AmeriKan MSM is hoping!

The United Nations estimates that about 300,000 people have died, and 2.7 million have been displaced since ethnic African tribesman in the vast arid western Darfur region took up arms against the Arab-dominated central government, complaining of discrimination, lack of political representation, and neglect.

In a worrisome sign for the success of further peace talks, the JEM representative in Doha, who already have signed a truce with the government, immediately condemned yesterday’s agreement, saying they had not been informed....

So they are also on the CIA payroll, huh?
