#1 The despicable Sudanese riverain Arabs, fresh from their involvement in a genocide in South Sudan that killed more than two million people in the years 1983-present, are now committing untold depredations in Darfur. This time it is the Muslim Fur, Zaghawa, Berti and Messalit tribes that are targeted as Khartoum arms the Arab camel and cattle nomad tribes. It is a classic example of core (Khartoum and the execrable river Arabs who dominate politics) against the periphery. Not only has the South and West (Darfur) suffered, so have the tribes of East Sudan (Hadendowa) and North (Nubians). Sudan President al-Bashir leads an outlaw nation and nothing (expecially the UN) is about to change that.

#2 I guess the Arabs really believe they can win this war on bluster alone.

#3 The goal is to cut off the Arab Muslim Sudan from the rest of Africa

The situation is worsening there, as well as in . . .

because, of course, the key to western world domination is to eliminate the Sudanese threat.

Once again, the hackneyed arab tactics of:

-blaming others, especially Zionists for a conjuring a complex conspiracy to control
-minimizing arab responsiblity, even though all these horrible places where atrocities occur and "the situation is worsening" are places where muslims are the perpetrators!

What's hilarious is that by resorting to these explainations, he seemingly is anxious to admit that muslims are sooooo easily led, and soooo stupid as to fall for this trap.

#4 If there IS such a plot (which unfortunately there isn't) I would say: GO CRUSADERS!

#5 The Arabs are mostly nomads and Africans farmers. In dry seasons, nomads move to farming areas to feed their camels and sheep. They fight over rights. This is an ancient, global phenomenon.

Right. That explains the Arab Sudanese women cheering on the Arab janjaweed by insulting the black Sudanese being raped. Neat explanation there, Dr. Batarfi.

#6 Well, jules, I guess that rape and genocide are an ancient, global phenomenon. Especially in those portions of the globe where folks pray towards Mecca five times a day....

#7 thought kofi said this was 'all being settled peacefully' and that 'The Sudanese goverment and Arab Janjaweed are not to blame' next he'll be waving his hands lowly infront of us saying 'Sudan, it was all just a dream,just a dream,dream dream....' and it'll all be forgotten. Lets go invade Ghana and eat the Ghana'ns and Kofis family, see how quick he moves then eh.
