Very interesting indeed. Some of the people tend to agree they are opposed to Al Bashir’s crimes which UNSC cays are serious and threaten insternational security,yet they do not want the man to face the full force of law. One reason given is that Sudan will break up, as if it has ever been one country! Do weneed to worry of a unity which had brought more suffering and egony to the peoples of Sudan?

Another reason is that there the warrant of arrest for Bashir will provoke the jin in his and this will send him mad: he will fight back and we will lose stability, CPA, deemotracy etc. This line of reasoning is confirming that Bashir belong to jail, not to the Presidential palace. We can not be taken hostages because of the jin in him.

im not a supporter of bashirs polices starting from the civil war till know of the china time and taking our resourses and for what cheap.but i have to say if the guy is going down why didnt the court gave warrent to arrest george w.bush or olmert there is corruption inside the court.where was america during civil war why didnt they take bashir to court and what about olmert even the israeli police want to arrest him they know he s corrupted.im saying this loud and clear america goes around the world and saying democracy look at their lie when they presured mubark egypts president to allow all parties to enter parlimentary election including the islamic brother hood .however when they realised the ilamic brother hood is against america they told mubark to not allow them to win the elections,uncle sam it seems that your democracy is unfair and tailored by u and your leaders conspircy.just how dare the court want the sudanese president if u want him get the israeli president and bush first and say something senseable.sice dam china enter with sudan in deals america got afried china is invading the world economically i feel angry that all these people and the goverment that they dont have morals.maybe thats whyamerica is facing an economic crisis as allah is punishing them .i dont even think UN has a justifiable existance.and all u people who said it would be good that bashir would be going to court means u didnt look at long term effects the country would be like somalia anrchy and mess and more genocides.plz all of u think before u write a nive answer or even ask a nieve question

O.K. Drima, Kizzie and the ST are onstage at my place and at the African Loft. Been waiting on something like this to happen for a very long time, too long if you ask me. I hope that the ICC judges reviewing the charges backup their boy Luis Moreno-Ocampo with a full court press. If it goes back to the UNSC for “approval” it will be the Kiss of Death for Sudan (from China and Russia with love).

If you’ve got the time please stop by and share your views with us. We would be honored, really.

I love how many Sudanese believe in the American/Israeli conspiracy.

But on a serious note, what many Sudanese diaspora and vocal anti-bashir foreigners don’t realize, is that if Bashir and Co. suddenly disappear or are removed by force a sizable power vacuum is going to be created. And that’s not a situation a fragmented country like Sudan wants to be in!

Can you imagine the anarchy…imagine Somalia on a larger scale!

Hi Solana, it is not a matter of safety in this case really. Most of the vocal critics of the Sudanese government in that Facebook group live overseas in the Gulf, Canada or the United States. A small few of the critics live in Sudan and are active in opposition political parties (I recognized these peoples’ names immediately) and hence are dedicated regardless of the risks (which frankly speaking have decreased a little since the government now pays more attention not to those who merely “talk”, but those who “walk” and are actually producing results).

I think Sudanese tend to be attracted to Facebook more than blogging because:

1- It’s fun and it doesn’t seem like “hard work.”

2- Most are still unaware about what blogging really is and don’t understand well the better benefits.

3- Blogging can indeed be hard work in terms of marketing. You blog and blog but no one reads you. At least in Facebook groups, marketing your words is not an issue as it is in blogging. Plus you get immediate interaction and immediate feedback.

No wonder the Sudanese blogosphere is close to being dead right now. I’m going to put in more time into reviving it and helping it grow like previously. Lately, I’ve been lacking in that very important area. Blogging and Facebook groups can be very strong compliments to one another.

It’s so sad for me to see my fellow Sudanese rip each other off even if we are against ElBashir political views how can you support US taking over our country?

SudaneseDrima, thanks for the post. A question: do you really think people feel safer on Facebook? Aren’t their comments linked to their personal profiles?

The most interesting thing on the Face book debate was that International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecutor Moreno was on-line to debate!

Al Basheer & Co should take note
