Sudan Update

Som nævnt tidligere her på bloggen er der sket voldsomme skændinger af koraner i Darfur, for ikke at nævne skændinger af (og massakrer i) moskéer og henrettelser af imamer. Fra Human Rights Watch´s rapport:

In the past year, government and Janajweed forces have killed imams, destroyed mosques and prayer mats. In some villages, they have torn up and defecated on Qorans.

“We do not know why the government burns our mosques and kills our imams,” said Imam Abdullah, sixty-five, of Jalanga Kudumi. “Our Islam is good. We pray all the time. We read the Qoran all the time.”

Yet government forces and Janjaweed have burned at least sixty-five mosques in Dar Masalit and have killed scores of people in mosques.

Janjaweed who attacked Urum in November 2003 killed sixteen men as they mourned eighty-year-old Yahya Abdul Karim, and the imam and his orphaned three-year-old grandson. Janjaweed also rode into the mosque in Mulli and shot dead ten people including the imam, Yahya Gabat.

In Sandikoro, a joint army-Janjaweed force tore Qorans and defecated on them. In Kondoli, they killed the imam, Ibrahim Durra, the second imam, and the muezzin during prayers.

“The government wants to kill all African people, Muslim or not Muslim, so as to put Arabs in their places,” said Imam Abdullah.

Som man kan læse tog bloggen jeg citerede tidligere fejl, det er ikke niogtredive, men femogtres moskeer den islamiske Janjaweed-milits har brændt ned. Og det er kun i Dar Masalit-området i SV-Darfur.

Man kan så undre sig over hvorfor tre tilfælde af ukorrekt behandling af koraner på Cuba skal føre til en mediekampagne uden sidestykke, mens nedbrænding af femogtres moskéer i Afrika ignoreres. Løsningen er imidlertid enkel:

Det første kan man give USA skylden for. Det kan man ikke med det andet.
