SaveDarfur.org Pushing For UN Troops

Okay so previously I’ve talked about how I appreciate Save Darfur’s great job in bringing Darfur to the attention of the American public and the world but NOW I don’t really think I like THIS. They’re organizing a concert with the aim of pushing for UN troops to be sent to Darfur. I’ve explained before […]

ENOUGH!! Qana Was NOT Nice!

Enough IDF! ENOUGH! Either aim properly or don’t aim at all. I still still still don’t get the damn logic in the IDF’s strategy. First they destroy Lebanon’s infrastructure and send it 20 years back and then they start bombing northern targets. Now THIS Qana crap happens. 56 innocent civilians?!! 27 poor children DEAD?!! Shouldn’t […]

Where I Was Before & Where I Am Today

About 6 months ago before I stumbled upon the blogosphere, I was super anti-Israeli and anti-Zionist. Now after spending time engaging in productive discussions my opinions have been refined and balanced. The reason I was super anti-Israel was because of what I believed. I believed that Israel’s goal is to expand and take away all […]

When Will This “Pride” Stop?

I just saw this comment which was left by a reader on Sandmonkey’s blog. I simply had to post it here.
When will the Arab-Muslim world stop getting its “pride” from fighting Israel and start getting it from constructing a society that others would envy, an economy others would respect, and inventions and medical breakthroughs from […]

Update On the Rebel Situation

Okay so just to make things clear. Initially before the signing of the Abuja Peace Agreement there were mainly 2 rebel groups in Darfur. One is called Sudan Liberation Movement/Army (SLM/A) and the other is called Justice & Equality Movement (JEM). A faction within SLM/A led by Minnawi later signed the Abuja Peace Agreement. […]

Bashir: Darfur Would Be UN Troops’ Graveyard

So the opposition naturally still continues. Bashir’s regime strongly believes there’s a conspiracy to get rid of him and so he won’t risk anything threatening his power. He also mentioned 2 interesting things.
“If they [UN] really want to protect the people of Darfur, what are they doing about the Israeli invasion of Lebanon and Palestine […]

Does Israel Understand the Psycodynamics of the Arab World?

I really wonder if Israel has any clue to the psychological dynamics of the Arab and Muslim worlds. With each passing day the IDF continues bombing its enemies in Lebanon, it actually creates more in the process. The images being broadcasted to millions of Arabs and Muslims around the world only reinforce what has been […]

New Darfur Rebel Groups Formed: G19 & NRF

After the signing of the Abuja Peace Agreement, tensions within groups that signed arose. There has been continuing disagreement about the agrement between rebels and leadership within the groups involved. This has lead to splits. As a result it’s my great displeasure to announce to you that new rebel groups have been formed. Here is […]

Security Council –> bla bla bla… Israel & Lebanon ceasefire… bla bla bla… Boom… American veto in your face! Gee what a waste of time!

Omar al-Bashir –> bla bla bla… Israel is an evil enemy… We must defeat it… bla bla bla… We support the Lebanese people… bla bla bla… Gee guess what? My […]

Jet Lagged Like a Stoned Baboon!

Hey there. I arrived safe and sound… not to mention being super jet lagged. I slept again from 3pm to 11pm (Malaysian time) only to wake up and find everyone in the house asleep except for my little sister who’s watching wrestling on TV. My head hurts and the thought of traveling 4 hours back […]

She’s a Muslim Sudanese girl who’s born and raised in the UAE. I’m currently working on getting other Sudanese bloggers who are isolated from each […]

When Culture Or the Lack of it Gets You Into Trouble

A Sudanese who is a friend of a friend recently moved to America after receiving his Green Card. After arriving and staying for a while in the country, this guy whom we shall all call Abbas took up a part-time job as an ice-cream man. While working, Abbas would drive his van around neighbourhoods selling […]
