I'm from Sudan, thank you for talking about my country, the Army failed to protect the state and the people from the RSF and its allied Arab militia because they're being supplied by countries like the UAE... kinda whished if you talked about how some countries are negatively impacting the peace process in my country beside the multiple peace initiatives that also complicated the matter.
THANK YOU so much for covering this. As a Sudanese i really can't help but get so frustrated over the lack of media coverage for this conflict. This war has been going on for longer than anyone had initially expected and the lives of millions of people including me, have been disrupted and yet most people don't even know there's an ongoing war here lol. Once again i really appreciate you for making this video.
It's crazy how it's not being covered more, but you're not alone. Erdogan is bombing and ethnically cleansing millions of Kurds. Pakistan is nakbahing 2 million Afghanis, and Assad is still killing Syrians. Israel/Palestine has captured the entire world. No Jews, no news, I guess.
Im American and although I was never bog into news until recently, I am honestly disappointed I had never even heard of this. Not shocked, necessarily, but very disappointed that things like this can happen and go under so many people’s radars. I hope you and all your loved ones are ok❤❤
I'm Kenyan and even I have never heard of it despite us not being that far away from each other...it's literally never on the news or in any discussion
2 challenges: a) no unity which means potencial infighting post succession and thus a continuum of atrocities (we don't know with certainty how much this is possible) and b) landlocked making it dependant of neighbours who have been cooperating directly or indirectly with the atrocities, thus unreliable independance or potencial fighting of competing countries for its vassalage. Sometimes geography and location makes it 10x harder for a simple solution as is independance.
as a darfuri and sudani, you have failed to understand that the people who want secession are the arab rsf Janjaweed militias. they want to basically carry out a full scale genocide, which they currently are, and if they can have it separate, it will become far too vulnerable for African tribes. their plan is to exterminate africans, which will cause other Africans to leave darfur (just like now and in 2003) because they want the land to be occupied by arabs. Currently, they're bringing in arabs (shuwa and baggara) from Chad, norther nigeria and also niger. Particularly niger, since Mohammed bazzoum (first nigerien president of arab ethnicity) was ousted from power. They want to bring these people to replace the African tribes. With the help of the UAE, they want to build a nation for them, with facilities and services. the main component of the RSF militia are the rizeigat arab tribe. They can be found in chad and sudan primarily and are abut 4 million in size making them superior in size. This tribe hosts the main leaders of not just the RSF like Mohammed hamdan dagalo but also when it was named the Janjaweed, the militia from 2003, its leader was musa hilal (a cousin to hamdan). in 2003, the africans reblled due to the region being the most marginalised, but the truth is the most marginalised group within darfur were the arabs, who are cattle heading nomads. They weren't a nation because they have no homeland. other tribes like the fur and zaghawa do. Now they want to make their land their own. its kinda like the great replacement theory euopeans have but the difference is in darfur its the reality.
the problem is the janjaweed, who are committing this genocide in Dar-Fur are considered one of the tribes in the region. The case in South Sudan was different, as South Sudanese were fighting a common enemy which resided in the north. and we were ideologically vastly different. unlike dar-furian who consider they have more common traits due to their common religion.
Somali here.. I wish we could all get along. I have Darfurian south and north Sudanese friends. Growing up I didn't know about these rifts and conflicts. Very unfortunate
that will never happen as long as these invaders reside on our continent and mistreat those who are native to the land. Sudan is a country doomed to eternal suffering in all Abrahamic books. It is by God's grace that that South Sudan is free from that disgusting place. Now we just need to change our name to free ourselves of that cursed place completely.

I'm from Sudan, specialty from the central and northern regions. I feel like I've been a victim of every government policy and I don't wish to pay the price of them. Thank you for sharing this information. The video was one of the best I've seen in a long time. Before anyone scoffs or laughs, it's important to remember that we Sudanese didn't draw our own borders. They were imposed on us by British, Turkish, and Egyptian colonial powers. Now, after losing South Sudan, Sudan is home to over 500 tribes. Note that there are some tribes that migrants (from west africa mostly), and this is an undeniable fact, such as the Hausa tribes who came from Nigeria and settled in Sudan in large numbers. The tribal and ethnic components in the west, or what is known as Darfur, are victims of the Libyan-Chadian war. The Sudanese government was undoubtedly complicit in that. However the reason the Darfurian people took up arms against the government was due to lack of security and safety. The issue they are raising is primarily about security, not economy. Let me tell you, all of Sudan is economically marginalized, north, south, east and west. The story is really long, but I'll stop here for now.
And what will happen after darfur becomes independent, we already know that the Arab militias and the RSF are from darfur and make up 40% of the population
As a member of the fur tribe I literally say no. Even though we have been mistreated by the government that’s not the same mindset the people has. Darfur is better in Sudan rather than outside of it.
Summary of this video The war in Sudan has been ongoing for 7 months. Thousands of deaths and over 2 million people have been displaced. In early November, paramilitary forces targeted and murdered at least 800 Masalit people. An additional 8,000 people have fled to neighboring Chad. The recent violence in Sudan risks splitting the country apart. The video will explore the history of the separatist movement in Darfur. It will discuss the current ethnic violence unfolding in Darfur. The possibility of Darfur succeeding in the future will be considered. Viewers are encouraged to subscribe and ring the bell for notifications. A civil war erupted in Sudan in April, led by the Sudanese armed forces and rapid support forces. The violence quickly spread to other parts of the country, including Darfur. In June, the provincial capital of West Darfur was attacked, displacing non-Arab populations. In July, a mass grave with 87 bodies was found near the city. In early this month, the town of Adata was attacked, resulting in the murder of over 800 Masalit people.

There are no active separatist groups in Darfur, despite the fact that most of what you said is accurate. If they do cecede, it will still be the same population of warring groups and the violence won't stop, so neither the RSF nor the other non Arab groups are looking for separation. In fact there are stronger separatist movements in North and East Sudan as there is a movement there that is arguing that a unified Sudan will always be a failed state.
Those arab states are conected to economic interest groups and actually participate in buying the raw material that is exploited and what actually produces this conflict. Ofcourse, it isn't in their interest to allow darfurians to choose who gets to exploit these ressources 😂.
It’s true, Sudan is an artificial creation of the British and Egyptians. There can be no united Sudan because it does not correspond to ethnic and religious boundaries.

The assumption of Darfur secession is not going to happen, Darfurian people are away more proud and think entitled to being Sudanese rather than South Sudanese who are sepratists.
@@blueskull1119maybe those 400 mil should check if leaders aren't using arab identity (which is one of the identities with most internal variety) to justify waging war (aka greedy corruption for ressources), and organized intern crime, right under arab noses.
With respect to your opening statement: So what is the Developed World supposed to do about it? Invade? The Developing World hates it when that's done. Send humanitarian aid? A band aid that doesn't solve anything.
That really depends on wether or not they get foreign support. Wouldn't be the first nation to become landlocked via secessionism, ask Ethiopia. But Eritrea had good foreign support. Sudan will most certainly declare war if the Beja get anywhere near strong enough to worry them.
But arent one of the groups propogating the violence themselves native to Darfur? This isnt like South sudan where the difference was majorly religious in nature.. Not to mention the fact that now, the Sudanese armes forces are actually going against the RSF which is carrying out the genocide
Ethiopia would also splits into different countries like Yugoslavia....Eritrea and Tigray gone now Somalia, oromo, gambella and gumuz are on their way 😢😢😢
Is it just me or does the lighting feel off when they pan back to jack? Seems the saturation has been turned up, and it feels a little grainy, I'm not sure tho.
@sudanesemappingball249 which means the Sudanese army can not defeat them militarily, they have to come to the table hold negotiations, and end the civil war. Sudan is one of the biggest nations in Africa and if there is war it affects every one of us. Stop the war now. I am from the Tigray regional state of Ethiopia and I care a lot for all of the Sudanese people. They do not deserve this deadly civil war.
Why should they? Your arab populations keep killing them and don’t even grant them equality or dignity. They should become part of Chad or become independent
@@lanxy2398 It wouldn't work you know why? 1- the RSF are made from the arab tribes that LIVES IN DARFUR. Even if Darfur becomes a country the killing wouldn't stop. 2- landlock country surrounded by countries that helped directly or indirectly of committing those atrocities so the relationship between them will be weak. 3- tribal wars aren't a new thing in Darfur they were fighting each other for years
What people don’t understand is that this is not a war between Sudan and Darfur. This is a war between the Sudanese army and out of control RSF that have rebelled against the state and are committing these atrocities in Darfur. In addition, Darfur is not entirely non Arab in fact 40% of its population are baggara Arabs from western Sudan myself included and I would never support separation from Sudan. The same Darfur rebel groups have now joined hands with the Sudanese army to fight the RSF. The RSF itself are the janjaweed (Arabs of Darfur) and seceding Darfur would not fix the problem because the RSF would just tag along 😂😂😂
Looking at the issue from EU. This is what always made me scratch my head about how the media reports this. A Darfur government right now would be an RSF government. And RSF are the ones commiting the atrocities. So how the hell is that being pushed by journos as a possible stop to the atrocities?! Seriously. "Darfur has historically been secessionist so now RSF can use that to secede" really doesn't work as an argument when the secessionists are alive, active and fighting against the RSF but its like every god damned journalist talking about it immediately defaults to that talking point. Do they have a script? If so I wanna know who the hell writes it so I can introduce them to basic logic 101.
But religious wars more fun to watch than ethnic war, plain ol racism is meh, but racism fuelled by ancient prophesies and order of god , is like playing an assassins creed game.

You must be so dumb to think this war has anything to do with religion
This war has nothing to do with religion -_- Are Muslims not even allowed to fight now? If you saw two random muslims get into a streetfight over a personal spat would you say "religion of peace strikes again"?
South Sudan should rename itself to Nubia.
South sudan has no relation to nubia infavt they were slave market for nubia
@sudanesemappingball249 Didn't stop Mali from calling itself Mali. It's about ambition.
What the targeting of non Muslims in a Muslims country huh say its not so almost like a common pattern
Are you deaf? In the video they made it clear that Darfur is Muslim, this conflict has nothing to do with religion it is an ethnic conflict where all sides are Muslim.
Darfur should be an independent nation
Crisis stricken is putting it very charitably.
8:00 When was there ever a strong secessionist movement in Rwanda ?
Darfur best opportunity would be to join South Sudan like they should have years ago when they were asked to join them
lame
That never happened snd can never happened. Stupid logic
Nah it's better for them to have their own state than join us
@@salihalash4111 lmaoo ask the people there and they would agree. The borders aren’t even drawn permanently, because they were supposed to be a part of ssd. Why you so mad?
@@anyiethyai1261 that’s not feasible. It’s easier to join ssd like many Darfur want, and many them are fleeing to South Sudan anyways. So while the borders aren’t permanently set it’s better so when they are eventually Darfur can be a part of ssd
Good breakdown of history...
There are no active separatist groups in Darfur, despite the fact that most of what you said is accurate. If they do cecede, it will still be the same population of warring groups and the violence won't stop, so neither the RSF nor the other non Arab groups are looking for separation. In fact there are stronger separatist movements in North and East Sudan as there is a movement there that is arguing that a unified Sudan will always be a failed state.
Those arab states are conected to economic interest groups and actually participate in buying the raw material that is exploited and what actually produces this conflict. Ofcourse, it isn't in their interest to allow darfurians to choose who gets to exploit these ressources 😂.
It’s true, Sudan is an artificial creation of the British and Egyptians. There can be no united Sudan because it does not correspond to ethnic and religious boundaries.
@@puraLusa Again, what you are saying is kind of true, but has nothing to do with what I said
Every conflict in Africa ever since the African nations have gained independence demonstrates repeatedly that giving them their independence was the wrong thing to do.
They killed your kind to get independence. Not that you'd do anything about it 🤣
it's not long ago when colonial nations tried to wipe each other clean from the world map,the thing is let Africa handle it's own conflicts
@@ngari117 Such isn't the right thing to do. If you see two guys fighting each other, you try to stop the fight before they hurt each other more, not stand by and watch them kill each other.

I'm surprised they haven't already seceded. The Sudanese have treated them with nothing but contempt and inflicted a genocide.
Man I can see all the benefits and unity these African Nationalists said would come after they got rid of all these European colonizers!
The European colonizers didn’t really leave.
Wow. I don’t know if that will fix the problems. South Sudan split from Sudan and still has its issues. Splitting into another country can mean a new start but it also can mean less resources overall to put towards other issues.
State hood is a long and complicated process. Tell me the country that managed that in a straightforward and pain free way. Especially with a population lacking decent education and financial means.
South Sudan is actually making good progress.
@@AsiaMinor12im from South Sudan. Who want to live by Arab Sudanese. Its disaster, Genocide for Darfur since 2003. Millions people Killed , Raped, Burn alive etc.
South sudan has gone to be a shithole it would be much better it united with sudan or become vassal state of sudsn
If Darfur does secede, will it be recognized as an independent state? That's what I want to know. Also, if Darfur does secede and become an independent state such as South Sudan it might only be the beginning of their problems. Look at South Sudan and the chaos that has erupted in the country since.
Problem not.
Since the RSF seems to be in charge there now it would only happen if they chose to secede.
I rated this channel until i heard Johnny harris is featured in your newspaper.
what's wrong with Johnny?
If Darfur also leaves, then wtf Sudan even exists for? For everyone to leave? F*ck that.
How about its not Europe and the West who should try and solve everything... Fix it Africa. You got it. I believe in you.
This is why everyone should support whatever african union decides as the best solution.
Wait wait wait so we could have north Sudan, South Sudan and "west Sudan"?!

@@TheSmart-CasualGamer the holy war only lasted 30 years, this 100 years one was a war of succession
like rusiia and ukraine right
People cry about Palestine but don't care about people dying in Sudan... makes you wonder why
Probably because it's Africa and people don't give a shit about Africa. It's sad but that's how it is.
Duh, it happens every time lol the only wars I remember people protesting about in a long time are UKR-RUS (cause Europe.. only for about a month, then is stopped being a thing) and ISR-PAL (which ALWAYS gets talked about). No one cares for Sudan, Syria, Yemen, Myanmar, and on and on.. Any Asia/Africa conflict..
ISR-PAL is more unique cause someone in the media if pushing it very strongly, as always.. for their own reasons..
@@whyareyoureadingmynickname8158it's more to do with partisan and economic group interest and UN involvement. When it was biafra (nigeria, west africa) crisis, many "western countries" societies/ media were talking about it.
this crisis in Sudan can get any worse
The assumption of Darfur secession is not going to happen, Darfurian people are away more proud and think entitled to being Sudanese rather than South Sudanese who are sepratists.
Arabs people are sooo peaceful.
Arab people are 400 million
Your so racist I expected you to have a European name
wow christians soo peaceful look russia and ukraine , who killed 6 millions jews ?
@@blueskull1119maybe those 400 mil should check if leaders aren't using arab identity (which is one of the identities with most internal variety) to justify waging war (aka greedy corruption for ressources), and organized intern crime, right under arab noses.
With respect to your opening statement: So what is the Developed World supposed to do about it? Invade? The Developing World hates it when that's done. Send humanitarian aid? A band aid that doesn't solve anything.

just you
@@KisalYahampathtypical westerner.
Why is no one talking about this ethnic cleansing????
Not conected to western economic groups interests.
Just like Yugoslavia genocide
Since it’s Arabs instigating it it’s ok, they’re an oppressed people, they can do no wrong 😂
This makes me wonder if the Beja people in Northeastern Sudan will secede as well. If they do then Sudan will lose its sea access.
Sudan would never let themselves become landlocked.
That really depends on wether or not they get foreign support. Wouldn't be the first nation to become landlocked via secessionism, ask Ethiopia. But Eritrea had good foreign support. Sudan will most certainly declare war if the Beja get anywhere near strong enough to worry them.
Lets see if the media covers this as much as Palestine, doubt it
Not again
But arent one of the groups propogating the violence themselves native to Darfur? This isnt like South sudan where the difference was majorly religious in nature..
Not to mention the fact that now, the Sudanese armes forces are actually going against the RSF which is carrying out the genocide
Indeed yes the RSF are made from tribes that are native to Darfur
Top 2 newest Country gets independence from Sudan
That's what she said, "Too Long"
Ethiopia would also splits into different countries like Yugoslavia....Eritrea and Tigray gone now Somalia, oromo, gambella and gumuz are on their way 😢😢😢
Balkanization moment
Darfur has suffered enough
I hope the powers that be are watching this drama carefully.
Is it just me or does the lighting feel off when they pan back to jack?
Seems the saturation has been turned up, and it feels a little grainy, I'm not sure tho.
A channel called "To Lazy Didnt Read" made a newspaper... hmmm
RSF has control of half of Sudan's territories militarily now.
No they only control five states out of 18 thats not even a quartee
@sudanesemappingball249 which means the Sudanese army can not defeat them militarily, they have to come to the table hold negotiations, and end the civil war. Sudan is one of the biggest nations in Africa and if there is war it affects every one of us. Stop the war now. I am from the Tigray regional state of Ethiopia and I care a lot for all of the Sudanese people. They do not deserve this deadly civil war.
Darfur needs support
Freedom for Darfur, Kurdistan, Somaliland, Scotland, Flanders, Catalonia, Assyria, etc
No

Will Canada invade Alaska? Will China annex N Korea? Will Iceland nuke France? All topics are coming soon to this channel.
YES please
I’m from Sudan specifically fur tribe and I say the land of the furs aka what “Darfur” means should stay in Sudan.
Why should they? Your arab populations keep killing them and don’t even grant them equality or dignity. They should become part of Chad or become independent
@@lanxy2398
It wouldn't work you know why?
1- the RSF are made from the arab tribes that LIVES IN DARFUR. Even if Darfur becomes a country the killing wouldn't stop.
2- landlock country surrounded by countries that helped directly or indirectly of committing those atrocities so the relationship between them will be weak.
3- tribal wars aren't a new thing in Darfur they were fighting each other for years
Talking about genocide. At the end: Please buy our new product....
They can't keep reporting on the genocide if they have no revenue
I like your videos but I think the question of Darfur seceding is a bit silly. Overall youre not wrong but some facts are twisted a bit.
What's the likelihood of a seccesionist Darfur joining Chad?
Impossible
I hope. I'm from Darfur
Could the region work as an independent nation? I mean does it have enough resources like water?
@@bbenjoe Full of gold and yes there are water. Same as Chad
@@Ali-sYT And with that, you also explained why central Sudan doesn't want to let the region go.
What people don’t understand is that this is not a war between Sudan and Darfur. This is a war between the Sudanese army and out of control RSF that have rebelled against the state and are committing these atrocities in Darfur. In addition, Darfur is not entirely non Arab in fact 40% of its population are baggara Arabs from western Sudan myself included and I would never support separation from Sudan. The same Darfur rebel groups have now joined hands with the Sudanese army to fight the RSF. The RSF itself are the janjaweed (Arabs of Darfur) and seceding Darfur would not fix the problem because the RSF would just tag along 😂😂😂
Looking at the issue from EU. This is what always made me scratch my head about how the media reports this. A Darfur government right now would be an RSF government. And RSF are the ones commiting the atrocities. So how the hell is that being pushed by journos as a possible stop to the atrocities?! Seriously. "Darfur has historically been secessionist so now RSF can use that to secede" really doesn't work as an argument when the secessionists are alive, active and fighting against the RSF but its like every god damned journalist talking about it immediately defaults to that talking point. Do they have a script? If so I wanna know who the hell writes it so I can introduce them to basic logic 101.

The biggest with problem with this type of coverage is the lack of nuance when discussing race and ethnicity in Africa. In this video the guy calls non-Arab Sudanese "African" and "Black", as if those labels can't apply to the Sudanese Arabs as well. Would it kill Westerners to stop treating Africans as an interchangeable monolithic group? For the record the non Arabs are Nilotic and Nilo-Saharan people.
