Continuing from what we emphasized yesterday, the current devastating war had actually begun around this time in December five years ago, during what was called the “glorious” December Revolution. This revolution, whose anniversary is now celebrated by its supporters under the slogan “No to War,” was the very spark of the conflict they now deceitfully denounce. They accuse others of instigating and supporting the war while rallying behind the slogan \u201cBilabis,\u201d a term that has become a popular chant among the Sudanese people who are now more united than ever around their army.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
After the fall of the former regime, foreign interventions took a new turn. Those who fancied themselves as leaders of the revolution were incited to obstruct the army\u2019s leadership from properly forming the state\u2019s governance structure. This manipulation widened the powers of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) at the expense of the constitutional authority, which at the time was the Armed Forces. The army was constitutionally and legally tasked with filling the power vacuum during the transitional period until fair elections could be held to allow the people to choose their leaders.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
From there, the scene became increasingly chaotic. Pressure mounted, leading to the dismissal of prominent figures in the ruling military council, such as Ibn Auf and his deputy. Similarly, those labeled as \u201cIslamists\u201d were purged from the council. Amidst this turmoil, clear signs of dissatisfaction began to surface within the military establishment, culminating in the arrest of Chief of Staff General Abdulmutallab on accusations of preparing a coup. This was followed by a theatrical investigation led by Hemedti, which quickly spread across social media, becoming part of the prevailing disorder of the time.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Even the constitutional document, celebrated with much international fanfare as the guiding framework, soon became a tattered piece of paper due to frequent amendments, deletions, and additions dictated by external actors such as the UAE and Saudi Arabia. One notable amendment was the allowance for foreign passport holders to assume ministerial positions. This opened the door for Hamdok and his associates to occupy key constitutional posts, which in turn triggered another wave of chaos. This phase was dominated by the infamously controversial Empowerment Removal Committee. As one of its insiders, Major Abdullah Suleiman, recently revealed, this committee became the gateway through which the RSF infiltrated vital state institutions and strategic facilities, with no resistance from the sovereign or executive authorities. Among these facilities was the Palace Hotel on the riverbank opposite the Republican Palace, which is now one of the militia\u2019s key bases, directing its artillery toward the palace and other sovereign facilities along Nile Street.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Ladies and gentlemen, these are some of the features of the so-called revolutionary government, each of which serves as evidence that it ignited the flames of the current war. Ironically, these so-called revolutionaries are the same ones now chanting \u201cNo to War,\u201d even though they once declared to us, \u201cThe Framework Agreement or War.\u201d And war is what we got.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The very same people are now celebrating the anniversary of the \u201cglorious December Revolution\u201d from their exiles alongside the Dagalo militia, while the Sudanese people are torn between displacement and refuge. Meanwhile, the majority of the population stands firmly with their great army, awaiting a decisive victory over the militia\u2014a victory we see as imminent, while they remain lost in their delusions.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
