Nicholas Kristof: "I Just Went to Darfur. Here Is What Shattered Me" {genocide of blacks by Arabs in Sudan}
New York times ^ | 18th September 2024 | Nicholas Kristof

When an Arab militia rampaged through Maryam Suleiman’s village in the Darfur region of Sudan last year and lined up men and boys to massacre, the gunmen were blunt about their purpose.

“We don’t want to see any Black people,” a militia leader said, adding mockingly: “We don’t even want to see black trash bags.” To make his point, Maryam recalled, he shot a donkey because it was black.

Then the militia members executed men and boys who belonged to Black African ethnic groups, she said. “They shot my five brothers, one after the other,” Maryam told me, describing how her youngest brother survived the first bullet and called out to her. Then a militia member shot him in the head and sneeringly asked her what she thought of that.

The militia tried to systematically kill all the males over 10, Maryam said, and also killed some younger ones. A 1-day-old boy was thrown to the ground and killed, and one male infant was thrown into a pond to drown, she said.

The gunmen then rounded up the women and girls in a corral to rape, she added. “They raped many, many girls,” she recalled. One man tried to rape Maryam, she said, and when he failed he beat her. She was pregnant and suffered a miscarriage.

“You’re slaves,” Maryam quoted the militia members as saying. “There is no place for you Black people in Sudan.” So Maryam fled to neighboring Chad and is one of more than 10 million Sudanese who have been forcibly displaced since a civil war began last year in the country and ignited pogroms against Black African ethnic groups like hers

This has been going on in Darfur since before the GW Bush administration. He did try more than all his predecessors to do something about it, yet in spite of that Madeline Halfbright and others blamed GW for the whole thing. Notice how her and the others have had nothing to say about during the Biden administration.

There is a reason you don’t see alot of blacks in Arab countries even though millions were enslaved. All blacks were castrated by the muslims after capture and that is a fact.

As horrible as this is, and this is absolutely horrific; it’s not our business.

These are black Muslims being killed by Arab Muslims

How do we know the Arab Muslims consider the blacks as actual Muslims with full "rights". Maybe the Arabs feel they are attacking people who are not Muslim.

Those idiot liberals like Robin di Angelo who claim that America is systemically racist don’t know what racism is.

By the way, if you haven’t yet seen Matt Walsh’s excellent “Am I Racist?”, GO see it right away. Without spoiling it, I’ll just say that he interviews Robin di Angelo, without her knowing who he is, and she beclowns herself in an absolutely epic fashion. It’s beyond gold, it’s platinum. How she reacts and behaves in that interview should forever discredit her nonsense in the mind of anyone who has a functioning brain cell.

I saw “Am I a Racist?” and was amazed at how Robin di Angelo got rooked. And ooh, is she hopping mad!
