Bush, al-Maliki & al-Sadr: I’m Confused

This Drima needs a little help here. How can you be friends and claim support for a leader who’s friends with another Shia cleric leader who commands militias killing your own troops? This is really confusing me and I just don’t get it. Help!
PS: While I’ve been busy trying to figure out this one, I’ve […]

Sudanese Military Command Angry With Jan Pronk & Want Him Deported (UPDATED)

The Sudanese military command is angry with Jan Pronk and is accusing him of committing an act of war against them.
A few days ago, Jan Pronk published a post on his blog speaking of heavy losses in the Sudanese Armed Forces’ side. The post gives a clear impression that the Darfur rebels are winning and […]

Black Kush: Who Killed Garang?

Black Kush blogged an interesting post about the various conspiracies surrounding John Garang’s death in the mysterious helicopter crash that killed him.

Janjaweed Defector Confesses Sudan’s Atrocities in Darfur

Read it all here. He says the Sudanese government does indeed support the Janjaweed directly. It’s quite possible he’s making up some things but I don’t doubt him. I have an inclination to believe what he says based on the fact that I know well what the NCP is capable of. Here are excerpts of […]

The First Step towards Solving a Problem Is Realizing It Exists

I’m speechless. I’m happy. I’m hopeful.
Hamas official: is violence a Palestinian “disease”?
A senior figure in Hamas, the Islamist group that heads the Palestinian government, published an article on Tuesday condemning internal violence and questioning whether it had become a “Palestinian disease.”
…”Has violence become a culture implanted in our bodies and our flesh?” he asked in […]

American Plan to Divide Sudan & Invade Egypt by 2015

This is what the headline of this Arabic article says. What I found weird is that it heavily quotes an article entitled “The Goals of the American Adminstration in the Middle East” written by some military analyst called Joseph Alsob in the French newspaper called Lomond (did I spell it right?). Joseph says that there […]

So WHAT if the Green Light Comes

You know I’ve been thinking. Let’s just assume pious caring Omar Hassan al-Bashir’s NCP gives consent for a transfer of the AU mission in Darfur to the UN. Do you really think the ranting Western nations will actually contribute troops given the fact that al-Qaeda and Sudanese Islamists said they will declare Jihad against them? […]

NCP Announces Plan to Disarm Janjaweed… AGAIN

Yup, another great plan to disarm the Janjaweed has been announced by the Sudanese Nasrallah aka Omar Hassam al-Bashir. The Janjaweed won’t be needed to slaughter protect the Darfurians anymore from the nasty evil piggy apes Jewish organizations planning to invade Sudan. Mighty Bashir achieved a diplomatic victory against the CrUSAders. He continues chanting “leave […]

Sudan Urges Dialogue With US, Not Confrontation

Something positive might be cooking. I’m not sure but I’m going to be optimistic about this one. I mean hey, the peace agreement with the eastern rebels has been finalized. I’m so tired of being depressed over this. I need to be hopefull. I need to be. We need to be. Let’s all pray for […]

New Iraq Strategy Needed

I’m glad pressure is being stepped up on Bush from within the Republican party to do more about the worsening condition in Iraq. Told be told, Iraqi leaders aren’t doing a good job either. Anyways, Senator Chuck Hagel of Nebraska said something that really caught my attention:
“The American people are not going to continue to […]

OIC To the Rescue Yaaaaay!!

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a turtle, it’s… the OICeeeee! After sitting around and doing almost nothing besides giving “spiritual support” (whatever the hell that means), the OIC is finally stepping up to help fix the Darfur situation.

Kim Jong II Keeping It “Pure”

Disgusting!

Black Kush: Can Darfur undo the CPA?

The Southern SPLM supports UN troops coming into Darfur (something good) and because of their position, Bashir’s NCP has threatened to cancel the peace deal signed with them that ended the long 20 year civil war between the north and the south (something utterly stupid and arrogant). Southern Sudanese fellow blogger, Black Kush has more […]

THE MODERATE MARTYR: A radically peaceful vision of Islam.

The New Yorker has one hell of an article that was posted on the 5th anniversary of 9/11. It’s about a person I have great respect for and admire greatly. It’s about one of my main political role models. It’s about the one and only Sudanese martyr Mahmoud Mohammed Taha. I don’t think I’ve ever […]

Carmen: Condemned to Hell, Again

Carmen has a really cool post on her blog. It brings back so many memories. I’ve always hated it when people judge you for being a bad or good Muslim and give you the whole “you’re condemned to hell” intense speech. Her experience is similar to many I’ve had. I’ve got one word for Carmen. […]
