Al Turabi Is a Chameleon

by Drima on May 13, 2006

As time passes by this old man gets weirder by the day. A number of years ago during a visit to Canada, one Sudanese black belt Karate dude kick smacked Turabi on the head. I think that nasty hit is finally bringing the effect it was supposed to have. Turabi condemned the peace deal saying it wasn’t in the interest of the Darfuris. Sure! Since when did Turabi care about anything besides himself?

For those of you who don’t know much about Turabi, let me tell you this… He is the one person mostly responsible for all the problems Sudanese suffer from today. He’s extremely smart, charismatic, manipulative and most importantly wicked!

I think the best decision Omar El-Bashir ever made was to put him on house arrest and keep him under control. Believe me folks, if Turabi was still in the picture no peace would have been possible with the south or now with the west.

We have a very famous saying in Sudan… “politicians are chameleons”… A chameleon changes its color very efficiently and effectively everytime it is in a different environment… so yes you get the idea.

You’re right halalhippie he has been uttering some things which I’m in agreement with… I mean hey dude… I’m a liberal myself and I like someone daring to say such things… But here’s the thing regardless of being conservative or liberal a person can still be wicked and evil… The reason Turabi is saying all these things is because he wants attention… What better way to bring it than by talking about controversial things… This whole recent fiasco is just to bring attention to himself and to also look good to the West… So far he’s been extremely successfull and that proves how freaking smart and wicked he is… Read up about his past and you’ll know why I don’t like him… If you didn’t know… He was the main person responsible for bringing Osama bin Laden into Sudan and harboring him… He was responsible for the death and execution of many prominent thinkers in Sudan… Believe me read his past and you’ll know… The guy is wicked and twisted but one thing is for sure and it is that he’s freaking freaking smart

I’ll take ur word on him…but it’s frustrating. A Muslim cleric who says what the West wanna hear (!) Of course he’ll get slandered by conservatives. You never know who to support.

I so want the Muslim world to catch up w/the rest of the world, like basic human rights, and a decent standard of living, I don’t see why you can’t be as religious as you want to at the same time.
