“Rampage of Killings, Looting, Torture, Rape”: Ethnic Cleansing in Sudan’s Darfur Region

Support our work: www.democracynow.org/donate?c...
Human Rights Watch has documented ethnic cleansing in the West Darfur region of Sudan by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces and allied militias against the Masalit people and other non-Arab communities. “These allied militia and the RSF then, from April until June, conducted a rampage of killings, of lootings, of torture, of rape,” says Belkis Wille, associate director with the Crisis, Conflict, and Arms Division at Human Rights Watch. She says international actors must cut off the flow of arms to all warring parties, but adds there is little “political will” to enforce an arms embargo in Sudan.

The result of 1,400 years of Arab Muslim genocidal settler colonialism in Sudan specifically/north Africa in general. The indigenous Sudanese, who are Nubians, example the Masalit and Fir ethnic groups, had been pushed west into Darfur over the last thousand years and are now being wiped out there too or pushed into Chad, South Sudan, etc. The Arab-Muslim militias conducting this genocide against non-Arab indigenous groups should be receiving way more attention.

THis si similart to how Isreal blames Iran for Hamas actions, when it is a matter of fact that Isreal has been funding Hams as a rival to the secular Palestinians. Isral considers Hamas an asset. It is so ridiculous when so called Human Rights Activists and Journalists talk about what's going on Sudan and pretend that the United States doesn't play a role in pepetuating the violence. UAE and Egypt are puppets of the United States, and they could not do any thing the US did not want them to do. The United states sold Saudia Arabia billions of dollars of weapons, resulting in a genocide in Yemen. IF UAE is supporting the Rapid SUpport Forces, why isn't the US sanctioning the UAE? Because the US supports their actions. The United States has military bases in the UAE and other Gulf States. Also US has military base in Syria and stealing thier oil. The United States attacked and destroyed three Arab countries. Iraq, Libiya and Syria. The US used chemiceal weapons on the Iraqis, and no one was prosecuted for these war crtimes.None of the Western Demcoracies that sold Saddam Hussein weapons, then scapegoated the Iraqi people for it, were ever prosecuted for their war crimes. When Has the United States ever done anything positive for Africa? The US assinates demcratically elected leaders, props up dictators, sell weapons to fuel wars, (they often sell weapons to both sides of a conflict). Look up the 2 articles "US sanctions ex-Israeli general [ Israel Ziv ] for $150 million in arms sales to South Sudan" and "US lifts sanctions on ex-IDF general accused of arms sales to South Sudan" which appear on "The Times of Israel" website. Isreal sells weapons to both sides of conflict in South Sudan, but denies it and claims it was helping the country with its agriculture. I could not find any articles about how Isreal has actually helped South Sudan with agriculture. Its a shame Westerners turn a blind eye to the role thier governments play in destroying countries, not only in Africa, but also the Middle East, South America, Asia, plus Haiti

Thank you for covering this, I feel like Africa gets so little coverage and I'm not sure why.

[@user-wy5rs6cx1v]

I remember watching videos last year of Dafur civilians fleeing to chad many were shot/killed trying to run into chad. Some of the lucky ones survived and only got shot in thejr butt leg or back. Sad!! They assumed 150,0000 Darfur were murdered last year i couldn't Imahine whay that number is now.

[@Emanon...]

I'm surprised the US aren't also covering for and arming the monsters here.

[@Earl_E_Burd]

China has been indenturing African countries with infrastructure investments (debt-trap diplomacy), they are likely involved. US is all about oil from the middle east and stirring up controversy over there to come in at the end and assert, per the usual.

Doesn't World human rights organization have the authority and obligations to provide the means to prevent such atrocities ?

[@869handyman]

They are afraid it's looking like.

[@Daughterofminerva]

Human Right Organizations do what they can ,the problem is that if there is no political will to solve or prevent a conflict international law is just empty words.

[@Northcoststar]

Great appreciation for the reply acknowledgement of international human rights organizations is that they are not a human rights organization.

Best comment!

[@josemadrid2913]

So tragic. I wonder if Chad and Central African Republic will do anything as they are being overwhelmed with refugees. South Sudan also has a pipeline that runs through Sudan which has been ruptured. That oil is South Sudan’s main source of income so that could also bring them into the conflict. Neither side is the legitimate leaders of the country either. It’s very messy and the poor people are stuck there on the verge of famine on top of all the killing. The UN needs to send in peacekeepers NOW. As they should in Palestine

[@julietaaboka3285]

When was Belkis last in Sudan, let alone Darfur? Why are you showing archive pictures and singing the old Darfur song from 2003?

Yes why is UN doing nothing is it because they cant blame Israsl ??

[@Estherbethe1...]

If you want to know who is arming them all you have to do is look at what resources the region has and whos companies are invested in them. Dont be surprised when you find American corporations w ties to the area... Im sure theres others as well and they will be the ones that pal around w America.

I feel such great pity for the poor victims of Darfur! Keep up the reporting. It needs to be known. Another genocide that needs attention is going on in north Nigeria. 100,000 Christians have been murdered by Islamists and few seem to care.
