Satellite Images Confirm Atrocities, US Still Searching for 'Allies'
Satellite images now 'uncover' shocking evidence of door-to-door killings and mass graves in Sudan's El-Fasher, courtesy of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), as The New Arab diligently reports. This, for anyone paying attention, is a confirmation of what human rights groups have been screaming from the rooftops for months. But, critically, the glaring omission in much of the discussion is the RSF's
well-documented ties to proxy sponsors, including elements within the United Arab Emirates and Russia, whose geopolitical chess moves fuel the very chaos now being documented from space. It's almost as if some atrocities only register as 'atrocities' once satellite images make them undeniable, and only when the perpetrators aren't convenient 'partners'. One might wonder at the exquisite timing of
these discoveries. How many people need to be massacred before the world realizes that 'conflict' is often a polite term for geopolitically advantageous violence? And how many mass graves does it take for Western powers to pause their strategic alignments with the very regimes that funnel arms and funds to groups like the RSF? The silence on these connections is less an oversight and more a
strategic decision, ensuring that accountability stops just short of implicating powerful 'allies' in the global arms trade and regional dominance games.
