For months, I spoke to 3 Sudanese women about the #Sudan war. In anticipation for the 1 year mark of this devastating war, I tried to tell the story of the country through their eyes. Here is my attempt below. My long read for @AJEnglish https://t.co/6UKrgbeM9x

Infighting began amongst Palestinians right after the ceasefire; knives are out & people are getting called "traitors" or "mouthpieces" Guys, the genocide is NOT over. Who does this infighting serve? If the martyrdom of our loved ones doesn't unit us, then we deserve defeat!

The US has proposed a very similar set-up for South Lebanon, in which they effectively want to cement the expulsion of Palestinians and the disappearance of their towns and replace them with all the manifestations of disaster capitalism. It's clear what their priorities are.

Fascinating interview with RSF humanitarian affairs "minister" who claims US/UN were never given approval to distribute aid to El Fasher, despite their claims. Article argues that US-led Quad effort to achieve ceasefire has all but collapsed. Sounds right.

Biden had multiple ways to pressure Netanyahu, including by publicly blaming him for repeatedly tanking ceasefire talks. Biden *chose* to give him political cover and materiel to continue the war. No US president is as helpless as former Biden officials seem to want to pretend.

The ability to pressure Netanyahu was related to Netanyahu’s total embrace of Trump, and the complete lack of any domestic political blowback to the President for doing it. Biden did not have either of these conditions.

Every single Palestinian prisoner released has a horror story to tell: of being beaten, sleep deprived, sexually assaulted, electrocuted, starved, made to sit in the scorching heat with hands tied behind their backs and told their families were dead when they were very much alive

So that whole "SAF will demilitarise Khartoum and disband its allied militias" thing wasn't worth the paper it's written on, after all? And who are these militias fighting / getting into gun fights with now the RSF is no longer in Khartoum? Oh right. #KeepEyesOnSudan #Sudan

I doubt it's over, but if it is winding down, what we can definitively say is that this genocide defeated the possibility of liberal universalism and revealed most western states as barbaric crusaders. It also ended the possibility of Israel ever being normalised.

Local activists condemned the move as “exploiting wartime conditions to run death factories.” Three residents were arrested for resisting the plant’s reopening, as illegal cyanide sites also emerge nearby, raising fears of toxic contamination along the Nile.
