Dissolving the Army The long-delayed national duty

What we can blatantly see with our own eyes, is that the Military Institution is the wrecking ball of the Sudanese State and the tool for dismantling it, torturing its people and is the biggest loophole for malicious foreign interventions. For its the key den of treason, national betrayal and theft of economic resources.

This is the truth we will persist on repeating until we perish, and its men and women will surely come along one day!

However, the shameless media machine, which specializes in lying, perseveres in misleading and falsifying awareness, has succeeded in creating parrots who repeat slimy and disgusting phrases that can’t refute any rational and logical discussion based on evidence and proof, phrases like the Armed Forces is the country’s safety valve!!! And the collapse of the Army means the collapse of the State!!! And preserving the State institution requires standing behind the Army in support! While the Army itself isn’t even standing for us to stand behind it! Rather, its in a frequent state of fleeing from the battlefields!! In a state of constant reliance on the National Congress Party’s militias and the Armed Movements, for every morning the militias multiply, emerging from the womb of a new phenomenon called the War of Dignity!

The only city that has withstood for a long period of time in the face of the Rapid Support Forces is El-Fasher, but it stood firm because the battle was confronted by the forces of Minni Minnawi and Gibril, who mobilized their forces on a tribal basis, and the Security Services excelled in inciting ethnic clashes and turning it into a battle of existence between the Zaghawa and Arabs, which portends mass massacres on an ethnic basis.

There are indicators that El-Fasher is well on its way to falling under the control of the Rapid Support Forces eventually, especially after Minni Minnawi’s differences with the Port Sudan Authority were made public in regards to the three hundred million dollars that should have been spent on the Armed Movements participating in the War of Dignity but the latter have yet to receive the money.

In short, this Sudanese Army is neither national nor professional. If our country had real founding fathers, the first decision taken by the independence government on the 1st January 1956 would have been to dissolve this Army, which was determined to guard the Colonial Authority and suppress the people, to begin building an independent Sudanese Army with specifications consistent with the orientation of an independent national State, just as (Nyerere) did with the Tanzanian Army on the eve of independence.

Unfortunately, we are an orphan country, so it has remained oppressed under the boot of this Army since its independence until now.

I say this while I am certain that dissolving the Sudanese Army now is not possible, because there is an international and regional will that won’t allow this with premeditated and malicious intent to preserve this scarecrow for their own purposes. But whatever the case, I don’t find any logic in continuing to allow an illusion in regards to this Army to control the minds of the Sudanese people.

This Army must be viewed as an institution in crisis and as one of the roots of the national crisis since independence. Therefore, the condition for its continuation is its willingness to adopt a restructuring project to rehabilitate it technically and morally. This war is absolutely not suitable to be used as a political lever for the Army to consolidate its guardianship over the Sudanese State and, accordingly, the guardianship of the -nominally- Islamic Movement, which is criminal in fact, that ignited this war dreaming of restoring its absolute power over Sudan through this Army, which throughout the era of the Islamists has become a mere “Trojan horse” within that the Islamists hide to give a national character to their hateful partisan project, based on the national myths woven around the Army without justification.
