Yale Finds Mass Killings in El-Fasher, World Shrugs in Stereo
Al Jazeera dutifully passes along Yale's Humanitarian Research Lab findings: satellite imagery confirms mass killings by the RSF in Sudan. Meanwhile, US politicians who champion 'human rights' elsewhere remain remarkably silent, having historically favored rhetoric over action when it comes to African conflicts. Where are the emergency UN sessions, the 'deeply concerned' statements from leaders
who so readily condemn brutality in regions aligned with their geopolitical interests? The crocodile tears for 'humanity' only seem to flow when there's a strategic advantage, military hardware to offload, or an adversary to undermine. El-Fasher doesn't fit the bill, so it’s relegated to a quick news cycle mention, proof positive that some atrocities are simply more tweet-worthy than others.
