A tracker is a skilled individual in the art of following traces\u2014a profession indispensable to the police, even in the era of advanced forensic technologies. The tracker relies on his deep knowledge of the area\u2019s geography and wildlife. He can distinguish between the footprints of cows and camels, cats and dogs, sheep and goats, and whether animals are burdened with loads or not. He discerns a man\u2019s footsteps from a woman\u2019s, and whether the person was walking or running. He factors in wind patterns and seasonal changes\u2014be it summer, winter, or autumn.<\/p>\n

But the greatest challenge a tracker faces is water. If the trail leads to a river, a stream, or a canal, he can go no further. At that point, he says to his companions: \u201cThe trail is lost in the water!\u201d<\/p>\n

On that note, we can rightly say that Dagalo\u2019s militia has lost the trail in the water. When the fugitive buffoon and looting architect, Abdelrahim Dagalo, told his remaining thugs in some remote location: \u201cWe were wrong, we didn\u2019t even know where the battlefield was!\u201d And then he answered himself: \u201cThe battlefield is in Northern and River Nile states!\u201d<\/p>\n

A commander with the rank of First Lieutenant General\u2014regardless of the legitimacy of the unit he\u2019s second in command of\u2014how did he even acquire the qualifications for such a rank? When did war become something managed haphazardly? What about military planning in times of peace? In times of war? What law governs the conduct and movement of soldiers and officers? Who\u2019s responsible for logistics, their provision, preservation, and distribution?<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s not even talk about training, organization, discipline, and command structure. Let\u2019s skip over all these basics! What does this clown say about the material, human, and moral losses suffered because of the very mistake he publicly admitted\u2014two years into a war that has claimed the lives of his thugs across Khartoum, Gezira, Sennar, White Nile, Blue Nile, Kordofan, and Darfur? A war that left devastating destruction to their equipment and vehicles, dragged their reputation through the mud both locally and globally, and erased any possible public sympathy the militia might have once had.<\/p>\n

And after all that, he casually says: \u201cWe were wrong. We didn\u2019t know where the battlefield was.\u201d<\/p>\n

The looting mastermind then threatens to unleash a million troops on Northern and River Nile states. What nonsense! (Note: take care not to replace the hamza with a ra\u2019\u2014hence this clarification.)<\/p>\n

Faced with such absurdity, we can only say: \u201cThe trail is lost in the water.\u201d<\/p>\n

Victory to our valiant army.<\/p>\n

Glory and might to our fighting people.<\/p>\n

Shame and disgrace to our enemies and traitors.<\/p>\n

Victory is only from God.<\/p>\n

And God is Greatest\u2014and may the eyes of cowards never rest.<\/p>\n
