Sudan's Bloodbath: Another UAE-Backed Disaster We're "Tolerating"
Okay, so here we go again. Another week, another catastrophe unfolding in some corner of the world that most people couldn't point to on a map. This time it's Sudan, specifically El Fasher, and the details are, shall we say, less than uplifting. "Mass killings are under way," one report says. Great. Just freakin' great.
The Rapid Support Forces (RSF), who sound like a rejected superhero team, have apparently turned El Fasher into their personal playground of horrors. We're talking executions, starvation, and blood saturating the ground so intensely that satellites can pick it up. Seriously? Blood you can see from SPACE? What in the actual hell is going on?

And of course, because no tragedy is complete without a shadowy benefactor, the United Arab Emirates are lurking in the background, bankrolling the whole damn thing. Arms, cash, political cover – they're providing the full package to Hemedti and his goons. The UAE, acting like they're some kind of regional puppet master. Give me a break.
It's the same old song and dance, ain't it? The West wrings its hands, issues strongly worded statements, and then goes right back to doing business with the people enabling genocide. British military equipment is turning up in the hands of the RSF, for crying out loud. What a joke.
It's tolerated and relegated, one source says. Nailed it.
The RSF, as it turns out, are just the Janjaweed 2.0 – same genocidal tendencies, just with better equipment. And who armed them to the teeth? Why, the UAE, naturally. Because apparently, destabilizing entire regions is their idea of a fun weekend hobby.
And let's not forget the victims, trapped in a killing field, pleading for their lives. "I will never have mercy on you," one commander reportedly said before shooting someone. Charming. Real charmer.
This isn't just some random outbreak of violence; it's the culmination of years of calculated destabilization. The UAE has been meddling in Sudan since the 2018 uprising, propping up warlords and sabotaging any chance of a peaceful transition. Why? Because apparently, they're terrified of democracy taking root in the region. Can't have those pesky commoners getting any ideas, can we?
It's all about "domination through division," one article claims. They pit sect against sect, tribe against tribe, turning nations into feuding fiefdoms. And who profits? The UAE and their buddies, of course, looting resources and consolidating power while everyone else suffers.
Wait, what was I saying? Oh yeah, Sudan. It's easy to get lost in the sheer scope of the UAE's meddling. They're like the cockroach of international politics – always lurking in the shadows, causing trouble wherever they go.

And speaking of meddling, let's not forget the UAE's cozy relationship with Israel. Apparently, they're even helping to build "humanitarian cities" in Gaza, which sounds suspiciously like concentration camps by another name. Desalination plants, logistics, even keeping the airport open during the conflict – they're enabling the whole damn thing.
Some sources claim it's an ideological partnership. Authoritarianism, anti-politics, consumerism – it's a match made in heaven, or hell, depending on your perspective.
It's all part of their "development model," apparently. Prosperity without freedom. A façade of progress built on repression. But let's be real, it's just a mirage. A way to distract from the fact that they're actively fueling chaos and bloodshed across the region.
Look, I'm not saying any of this is surprising. The world is a messed up place, and powerful people do messed up things all the time. But that doesn't make it any less infuriating. We're sitting here watching a genocide unfold in real-time, and all we can do is shake our heads and cluck our tongues.
The UAE is getting away with murder, and the West is too busy counting its petrodollars to do anything about it. Maybe I'm being too cynical. Maybe there's some grand geopolitical strategy at play here that I just don't understand. But honestly, it just looks like greed and indifference to me. And that's a damn shame.
