Sudan Without Democracy is Violence (American Issues Take Two)
Nobody Can Feel Safe in Khartoum Now. The hosts for this show are Jay Fidell and Tim Apicella. The guests are Stephanie Dalton and Cynthia Ibale.
Khartoum is in a state of complete chaos resulting from the two military factions there, one the Sudanese Army and the other the RSF (Rapid Support Force), who are killing people at random and destroying all aspects of life in the city. This is a effectively a civil war and it has been getting worse for a week now. A cease fire that was supposed to take place yesterday promptly failed. Rescue efforts are of no effect, and everyone in the city is at great risk. Khartoum, and perhaps Sudan in general is a failed state, and the hopes the people had for democracy and human rights a few years ago have been lost. Our panel examines what has happened and what is happening there now, and makes the irresistible comparison of that with what has happened in Syria, Ukraine, and for that matter the burgeoning violence and lawlessness we are experiencing in this country, and what Sudan can teach us about what happens to people when democracy becomes impossible.
