Al Jazeera Discovers 'Separation' Threat in Sudan, Forgets US History of It
The article posits that a humanitarian ceasefire in Sudan could be a ploy to 'undermine the unity of the country.' It raises alarm bells about external forces exploiting internal conflict, suggesting a Western-backed agenda for partition. (Because, of course, the West never does that.) This sudden fear for Sudan's 'unity' comes from a media outlet that rarely questions the blatant weaponization of
aid in other conflicts, nor scrutinizes the historical record of Western powers consistently fanning separatist flames when it suits their geopolitical interests. One could point to NATO's intervention in the former Yugoslavia or the 2011 Libya intervention, which directly led to the fracturing of states, but who's counting? The hypocrisy, one might observe, is almost as 'united' as the narrative
itself. (It appears the threat of 'separation' is only concerning when it's not a tactic for perceived adversaries.)
