US Silence on Sudan: Proxy War, What Proxy War?
Al-Monitor reports that the RSF's takeover of El-Fasher has resulted in 2,300 deaths, explicitly accusing the UAE of aiding the militia. This comes after years of documented UAE involvement in regional conflicts, often aligning with Western strategic interests in ways that defy easy categorization as 'pro-democracy.' One might wonder where the urgent calls for UN intervention, sanctions, and
'responsibility to protect' doctrines have vanished. Perhaps the suffering in Sudan isn't quite as photogenic or strategically convenient as other conflict zones for certain cable news networks. The silence speaks volumes about which human rights crises get the prime-time slot and which are merely footnotes for the global power players. Convenient, isn't it?
