Sudan’s Defense Minister Breaks Down In Tears During Conference

Awww… how touching. He must be learning that trick from Hillary’s advisers.

February 06, 2008 (KHARTOUM) — Sudan’s top military official broke down in tears at the opening of a conference by the ‘martyr’s organization’.

Abdelrahim Mohamed Hussein recounted the sacrifices of martyrs since the 1989 coup that brought President Omar Hassan Al-Bashir to power.

Martyrs huh? You mean the friends and relatives you dragged out of their families’ homes and shipped off to die for some “holy” cause preached by the beloved al-Turabi right?

Raaaight. Because if the cause was so holy like Turabi kept telling us it was, you’d have all sent your own children to die for it instead. Ops, oh, no wait but you didn’t!

And hey didn’t Turabi recently declare that the so-called jihad against our fellow countrymen the kuffar in the South wasn’t a rightful one? Yeah, he did. So if the jihad wasn’t rightful, then doesn’t that invalidate the “martyrs” status given to those who died? Please help me here because I don’t know where you’re going with this.

Hold up, they’re martyrs not because the war was holy, but because many were young and forced to fight a war they wanted no part in.

You know, why not just recheck things with Turabi himself - the greatest Sudanese politician that has ever lived.

“They [martyrs] have perished while fighting for a cause and defending values” Hussein told the attendees at the conference.

What cause? Ah, yes, the one that helps you guys stay in power. The one that was meant to keep the Southern Sudanese rightless.

Hussein was addressing the top leaders in the departments making up the ‘martyr’s organization’. The latter was formed in 1992 at the height of the civil war between the north and south.

The organization was established to serve the families of fallen soldiers as well as veterans.

I support the organization’s purpose heartily. Unfortunately it’s the families of those who died that end up paying the heavy price.

“How would our situation be if one the martyrs’ families complained to the God almighty against us because we have not fulfilled our obligation towards their wives and children?” Hussein said before sobbing.

How pious. Okay, wipe those tears and let’s stop wasting time. Come on, let’s go janjaweed. We’ve got some ethnic cleansing to do in Darfur.

Yaay to Islamists and supremacist Arabs!
