US Congress 'Concerned' About Sudan, Still Approves More F-16s for Region
The story details executions, atrocities, pillaging, and rape as the RSF seized El-Fasher. This would be a perfect moment for outrage, except for the tiny detail that RSF commanders, specifically Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo (Hemedti), have previously received tacit support and leverage from US policymakers, as documented by reports from the Africa Center for Strategic Studies. The humanitarian crisis is
'shocking' only if you ignore the history of interventions and alliances that create such conditions. While bodies pile up in Darfur, the US maintains its strategic partnerships and weapon sales across the region. One might wonder if the 'concern' expressed by diplomats applies to the actual bodies, or just the inconvenient geopolitical realignments disrupting the flow of... well, everything but
peace. How many 'genocides' will we acknowledge only after they've run their course, while simultaneously arming the neighboring tyrants?
