| Sudan - Children of Terror documentary |
| 2005-05-26 |
| Ok, this leads only to a 13 minutes preview streaming movie, but it's quite revealing; note this .rm can be downloaded (about 25 mb) at http://www.france-echos.com/actualite.php?cle=5080 Exclusive! A secret propaganda video has emerged documenting the existence of terrorist training camps for children in Sudan. "Look at the faces of these children
these are faces of the future of Islam that the West fails to see and the West is afraid of". The English voice-over on a fundraising video describes hundreds of children marching in a regimented style at an Islamist training camp. "Some of the Koran devotees in Sudan are only 4, 5 and 6 years old," it goes on. "How this puts us adults to shame". At camps like this across Sudan, children are trained for war against the West. Eye-witnesses report pre-pubescent youths target training with AK-47 machine guns, negotiating flaming obstacles and climbing walls. "They were conducting training to a very high military standard", states Lutfallah Ahmed Afifi, former head of security at one such camp. "The level of training was equal to that of Western military. I feared for my own life". Every day the children chant mantras claiming they are arming themselves against America. The children come from across Africa — Kenya, Nigeria, Chad — as well as Sudan. Most were captured and forced into the camp. "Without a shadow of a doubt, the children were brought there by force", recalls Lutfallah. "Those who ran the camp had told the families that they would take care of the children and pay the family money". Rapes and beatings are commonplace. Slavery in Sudan has a long tradition and is well documented, but this is a different form of bondage. Worse still, there is evidence that the children are also being schooled in the use of basic battlefield chemical weapons. Lutfallah initially thought he was guarding an Islamic madrassa. But when he oversaw Government officials arriving to a secret laboratory even he wasn't allowed in, he uncovered a terrible secret: "They bring teams of specialists from the Government Military laboratory — they come to teach the children in the use of unconventional weapons". There is no doubt these camps are known to the Sudanese Government, and despite assurances given to the West, Sudan is still supporting terror to serve its own interests. Ali Osman Mohammed Taha, serving vice president and main negotiator with the West on anti-terrorism matters, openly declares his war on the US to congregations of Muslim speakers. "This is going to be an open ended battle between us and the USA
an ongoing struggle" he is filmed saying in the Sudanese embassy in Malaysia. "The struggle will continue no matter how much it costs." Taha goes on to explain how the Government facilitated the entry of Jemaah-al-Islamiya to attract Islamic and Arabic money into Sudan. "The regime is not working for the welfare or interests of the Sudanese people", explains Abd'ul Aziz Khattab, the man who filmed the speech and who defected his position with the Embassy to expose the actions of his Government. Sudan may be pretending to support the War on Terror, but the kidnapping, brutalising, brainwashing and militarising of children indicates their real intentions are quite different.

| #5 If you get the Spemble fortune cookie, you have to be ironic, or 'bzzzzt!' the nym goes away. Shipman's rules |

| #4 A5089 - Now if you get one beginning with Spemble, well now, you might want to keep it. Spembles have a certain jene se qua not found in any other nym, it seems. |

| #3 anon5089, it's not that we don't love you. We do, of course we do! You must have misplaced your cookies somehow (or perhaps you've found another bug for Fred to play with ;-) Fred and the regulars apparently got tired of trying to remember which Anonymous was who, so F. created a random name generator. Some of its efforts are surprisingly appropriate -- Jarhead likes his so much that his new nym is a composite of the two (which confuses me immensely, but what's a girl to do?) |

| #2 After WWII ended, many concentration camp denizens reported that when the bombers flew overhead they used to pray that the camp would be bombed. Better destroyed with us along with it, they said, than undestroyed and continuing the murder. Bomb the camps in Sudan. Both those who die and those who survive will be better off. As will a world that doesn't have to deal with the monsters being created there. |

| #1 In addition to all of my others flaws, I'm very egostical : how comes I am "Glomogum Elmirong1363" (where do you find theses names, btw?), while I type "anon5089"? Whenever I post by the main site, and not by the alternate url, it's happening. Is this some kind of devious, quasi-rovian, republican plot to make me doubt of my own identity, and ultimately throw me in a pit of self-loathing, self-denial and uncertainties about my sexual orientations? If so, that's very futile : as a proud euro, that's already the way I am. |
