The dilemma of the driver who signals intention to swerve in all directions simultaneously

Al Burhan implicitly admitted to committing all the crimes attributed to him

The Commander-in-Chief of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan implicitly admitted to committing all the crimes attributed to him, from the Darfur war, in which he participated in violations, to the most recent incident where a rebel was led to execution from “Takaya” (charitable public kitchens) in one of Khartoum’s neighborhoods.

 

The “Priest,” as his supporters took to calling him, lost his hold when he compared peaceful civil resistance to the rifle, expressing the widening gap between burning tires in the streets and assassinating innocent lives. The man admitted, without equivocation, that he killed and tortured, ruled by force of arms, utterly disregarding what history has recorded and what generations have come to understand as the implications of a lack of shame, in a scene comparable to the worst of war criminals.

 

This precious admission revealed his inherent hostility towards any peaceful civil change and any government based on law and justice. He seeks nothing but legitimacy for an accursed war, waging it against his own people, who were raised and educated on the dream of revolution, while claiming to be fighting against the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). It has become rather clear that his real war isn’t against the latter, but against the revolution itself —the revolution that granted him this high-profile and sensitive position, a trust he betrayed in cold blood.

 

In his live statements, like a howl in a moonless night, the leader of the “National Institution” —a pillar of the Civil State — expressed his profound belief in the power of the rifle, not political solutions, in bloodshed, not dialogue, and in crushing opponents, not containing them. It was as if he were speaking in Nietzsche’s words: “Individual madness is rare, but in groups, nations, and history, it is the rule.”

 

Thus, the Sudanese Army Commander-in-chief clearly and unequivocally revealed his involvement in all the bloody events that followed the revolution, from the massacre of the sit-in dispersal, to the killing of protesters in the streets, not in an effort to protect the State, but to confront the peaceful revolution, whose most prominent slogan was “Peaceful, Peaceful, Against the Thieves.” He himself became an advocate for corruption and a trader in the blood of martyrs, in order to preserve his power and attain his interests.

 

Therefore, what kind of man is this that fate has thrown into power?!

 

And what morals does this “stellar actor” of treasonous roles possess, playing the role of the brutal arm of the Islamic Movement in its war against the revolution, not in its confrontation against the Rapid Support Forces?!

 

Albert Camus once stated: “All tyrants begin as warriors in the name of justice and end as murderers in the name of order.”

 

It seems that this “exceptional” leader has mastered both roles and continues to bet on deceiving people by signaling deviation in all directions at once.
