To Alex De Waal, I don’t think I can address you by my dear, nor do I find in the writers manuals, or in my humble vocabulary a title that can obfuscate (only for the sake of diplomacy) what I truly think of you.
I assume it’s not a pleasant experience to see your impudent threats published on the web. So the CIA thug suddenly has turned to a compassionate philanthropist whose heart is reaching out to the people of Darfur. (What a transformation—I believe in miracles, too.)
If Abdul Wahid signs your piece of garbage he will only be another loser and join a huge club in Sudan crowded by short-range leaders who led their people down, but Sudan will never be an easy place for the Anglo-Saxon to roost, or rule by a proxy.
Let's read a quote from an ealier article of yours
Quote: Darfur's landscapes have a cruel beauty, and few are more unyielding than the nomadic encampment of Aamo. It is in a stony wasteland on a plain ringed by mountains formed from ancient volcanic cores. A distant sweep of pink sand marks the course of a seasonal river, Wadi Kutum. Many years ago, I stayed there as a guest of the nazir ('paramount chief') of a clan of Arab nomads known as the Jalul. With their broad black tents pitched on the sand, camels browsing on the thorn trees, and sparse but finely worked possessions, they were the stuff of coffee-table ethnography books. |
You obviously can write—so descriptively—and limn a landscape. I, too, read Lawrence Seven Pillars of Wisdom and was captivated by his pointillistic description of the Arabian desert; and I also could borrow his style—who cares nowadays.
Your performance in Abuja and your writing about Sudan and Somalia make so evident a great imagination; when added to your immense erudition you can make one hell of a good fiction writer.
Hashim Badr Eldin Mohamed I also fought in Sudan, you can go ahead and concoct charges of war crimes against me, too.
