Does the crushing defeat suffered by the Sudanese Armed Forces and Joint Force militias in El-Fasher loom before you like a flagpole in your dark, turbulent sea, driving you to pursue the secession of Darfur, so that you can blissfully take a deep breath and drift off into the realm of Almighty?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Well then\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">The most common descriptions since the beginning of the war have followed a clear path: They are hateful towards us\u2026 They suffer from an inferiority complex\u2026 They are not human\u2026 They&#8217;re bastards\u2026 The children of another &#8220;an unknown father&#8221;\u2026 Even someone who seemed respectable, like Dr. Amin Hassan Omar uses the term \u201csons of guests\/foreigners,\u201d -i.e&nbsp;born out of wedlock, without hesitation\u2026 and so on. However, the most common description is \u201cmalicious.\u201d Everyone affiliated with the region, the forces, and the allied forces is labeled spiteful. At best, they suffer from an \u201cinferiority complex.\u201d Even a female journalist \u2014a colleague\u2014 described Dr. Al-Waleed Adam&nbsp;Madibou&nbsp;as suffering from said complex. Another described him as burdened by a \u201csevere inferiority complex,\u201d since he -Dr. Al-Waleed- has always boasted that his mother has&nbsp;Shayqiyan&nbsp;roots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Do you see?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Nevertheless, in the midst of your arduous search for peace of mind, you fail to ask: Why do they hate us? Assuming it&#8217;s a proven fact, like the American question: Why do they hate us?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">The aforementioned is a question that could possibly make you reconsider your position if approached objectively, free from your anxieties. South Sudan harbored resentment against you. The Nuba Mountains harbored resentment against you. Darfur \u2013after 2023\u2013 harbored resentment against you. Eastern Sudan \u2013prior to the Eastern Sudan Peace Agreement signed in Asmara in (2006). The (April 2023) war revealed that the majority of West and North&nbsp;Kordofan harbored resentment against you. Darfur (with very few exceptions) harbored resentment against you. The&nbsp;Rufa&#8217;a&nbsp;tribes in&nbsp;Sennar&nbsp;and Blue Nile states harbored resentment against you. Which certainly begs the question, who are you to deserve all this resentment, assuming it is, indeed, resentment?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">What did you do to earn all this enmity?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">You must have committed a grave sin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">The Sudanese Communist Party (SCP) will inevitably realize that it has become closer than ever to the National Congress Party (NCP) and the Islamists. Has Marxism changed, for example? The Communist Manifesto? Socialism? Or is it \u201ca very radical,\u201d change that drove the (SCP) to embrace the &#8220;Blabsa&#8221;? (honey that guides the female to the male), as Mahmoud Darwish says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">What did you do to deserve all this hatred?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Will history exact its revenge?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Are the consequences inevitable?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Is karma an unavoidable&nbsp;reality ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Did you think you would be left to your own devices?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Of course&nbsp;not\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">You will cry out in distress \u2014as Ammar al-Sajjad does\u2014 (The original tribes, the Fur, Masalit, Zaghawa, will not allow the Arabs of Darfur to rule over them). And you will promptly think of getting rid of the \u201ctroublesome region.\u201d as it has always cost us dearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Nevertheless, the reality is that Darfur will not secede. This is a given. There is no room for manipulation. You have no room for that extravagant dream&#8230;that Darfur will simply &#8220;meet&nbsp;its&nbsp;fated doom,&#8221; as our esteemed professor, Abdullah Shabo, may Allah have mercy on his soul, used to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Therefore, you ought to think carefully before squandering your energies and the country&#8217;s resources on purchasing modern military equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Think carefully before establishing recruitment camps and calling for mobilization, before making deals with Iran, Egypt, T\u00fcrkiye, or even Washington, selling them ports and underground resources in an effort to get rid of the &#8220;resentful individuals,&#8221; the &#8220;Arab diaspora,&#8221; the &#8220;children of the guests\/foreigners,&#8221; the &#8220;foundlings,&#8221; the &#8220;lice-ridden,&#8221; and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Because if you attempt that, you will inevitably be faced with loss&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Because the war will continue to its conclusion. A historical inevitability&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Because the countries you believe will protect you, for being a &#8220;Muslim brother,&#8221; which translates to being bound to you by a firm, bright bond, that will bow to the passing storm without breaking, as said storm is a cause of &#8220;great displacements,&#8221; in the words of Hassan al-Turabi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Maybe because Egypt will find itself besieged by bills&#8230;by bank deposits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Or because the &#8220;Arab of the diaspora&#8221; will see no harm in fighting against you for the next hundred years, without declaring a general mobilization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">And without selling an inch of Sudan&#8217;s ports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">In that case, will you accept &#8220;death and destruction&#8221;?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">You will, of course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Because you believe you&#8217;re unique&#8230;that no one is like you&#8230;that you&#8217;re divinely chosen, doing as you please, without accountability&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">And that you deserve everything&#8230;whilst everyone else is just &#8220;envious.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"s10\">Do you see?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;Abdul Hafeez Maryoud &nbsp;Do you wish to simply get rid of the \u201ctroublesome region\u201d\u2014according to Al-Tahir Hassan Al-Toum\u2019s expression\u2014 and move towards development, establishment, and joining the ranks of progress?
