United Arab Emirates; A Cancer Spreading in Africa

The UAE, the United Arab Emirates, is a cancer spreading in Africa. This cancer has infected much of east Africa and is spreading into northern, central and western parts of the continent.

The worst outbreak of this disease, the UAE disease, has been in Sudan where the ruling Emirates family instigated an attempted coup detat 3 years ago, backing a warlord and his army, Gen. Hemeti and the Rapid Support Forces, also known as the Janjaweed since the war in Dafur/west Sudan from 2003-2005.

When he launched the attempted coup Hemeti’s fighters quickly scored major victories against the Sudanese Army lead by a coterie of corrupt, sycophant, officers. This was helped by a generous outpouring of UAE cash and weapons shipments to keep the coup attempt running smoothly. The capital Khartoum was quickly over run eventually forcing the head of the Sudanese Army, Gen. Burhan, de facto president of Sudan, to retreat to Port Sudan on the Red Sea coast.

As he watched his army being bruised and battered, in retreat across much of the country, Gen. Burhan turned to his neighbor in the south, Eritrea, and its battle hardened military to step in and help his army regroup and regain some fighting spirit.

Eventually, with the Eritrean involvement, supplying training and logistics and even leading the fight alongside the Sudanese army Gen. Burhan military began to effectively fight back and turned the tide of war against the UAE backed attempted coup by Hemeti and his RSF/Janjaweed.

In response the UAE stepped up its weapons supply, with plane loads being delivered to the RSF via Chadian airports under the watchful eye of the Chadian army. The UAE sent several hundred drones to support the attempted coup and when that didnt work, plane loads of mercenaries began to put boots on the ground in Dafur, much like what was done when the UAE intervened in Yemen against the Houthis from 2015-2017. Mercenaries from Libya, CAR, Somalia, Ethiopia and last but not least, Columbia.

Of course the UAE has denied this but the Sudanese Army destroying a plane load of Columbian mercenaries in Dafur put paid to any cries of innocence by the Emirati Royal Family.

As the Sudanese Army under Gen. Burhan began to drive the UAE backed RSF fighters out of the urban areas captured at the beginning of the attempted coup the Sudanese Army warned the Chadian military that they would be targeted for supporting the RSF and this resulted in the Chadian Army withdrawing most of their support for the RSF and the partial closure of the Chad airports to UAE arms shipments.

To counter this the UAE turned to their henchman in Libya, long time CIA asset “General” Haftar ensconced in eastern Libya who gave them a military base on the Sudanese border to transship weapons and supplies to the RSF/Janjaweed.

In the course of the fighting in western Sudan, where the RSF fighters had retreated to after being driven out of the capital Khartoum, some horrendous crimes have been committed by the UAE backed RSF and the mercenaries supplied to Hemeti by the UAE. The Sudanese government controlled town of Al Fashir was surrounded by the RSF and completely cut off from food and medical supplies now going on for many months. Starvation, cholera without any access to medical treatment and steady shelling and drone attacks from the RSF have seen thousands killed and thousands more dead from starvation, as bad if not worse than in Gaza.

Due to battlefield set backs the UAE cancer in Sudan is steadily shrinking but murder and mayhem by the RSF continues. Eventually the Hemeti lead RSF will be driven from Sudan into Chad, Libya and other countries with their tales between their legs but not before doing incalculable damage in the mean time.

The UAE cancer has also been eating at the Somali people for many years now, long before it infected Sudan. Al Shabab, “the youth” in Arabic, are an approximately 15,000 man army of terror being paid $300 a month which along with food, fuel and military supplies must run up to $7mill a month, $80+million a year going back over 15 years means the UAE has spent almost $1billion trying to buy with blood money a foothold in Somalia in the form a port.

We know this because a former head of Somali Puntland regional National Intelligence spoke out on this, the UAE’s involvement in supporting terrorism in Somalia in particular, Al Shabab. As I write Al Shabab is waging a brutal war against the slowly collapsing Somali government lead by a US anointed “President”. Remember when this new Somali President had not even been inaugurated when the AFRICOM, the US military in Africa, had already begun reoccupying their bases from which they had been expelled across Somalia.

Having control of ports seems to be an obsession with the British installed royal family, the Emir and his spawn, and the UAE cancer is trying to spread wherever it can find a hold, from Somalia to Socotra island in the Gulf of Aden, to the Persian Gulf and back to north and central Africa in Libya, Chad and especially South Sudan.

For years Libyan weapons left over from US/NATO overthrow of Col. Gaddafi have poured into Africa’s Sahel region fueling murder and mayhem by religious fanatics, with the role of the UAE in Libya linking the Emir and his lackeys to this blood soaked trade.

So far the alliance of Eritrea, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Sudan have prevented the UAE cancer from infecting the Red Sea coast though one of the main reasons for the UAE supporting Hemeti’s RSF is getting a port in Sudan on the Red Sea.

The mafia family ruling the UAE is separate from the government of the country, the day to day professionals, who are not happy with what the Royal Family is dragging the UAE into.

The dream of the Emirates royalty is to create, or re-create in their distorted version of history, a new “empire”, marine based in ports in strategic parts of the region and even includes the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, whom the Emirates consider little more than buffoons, and whose rightful rulers are their Emirate cousins.

You should ask, really, from where did this information come from?

Some may remember when early in 2025 when the Trumpists came to power hearings were held which exposed, for a very brief period, how the US CIA was funding terrorists groups in Africa, including Boko Haram in west Africa and Al Shabab in east Africa.

Recently the Eritrean President Issias Aferwerki, noted for his reticence, gave an interview where he went in depth into, amongst other problems, the role of the UAE in Africa. He exposed a whole range of crimes including in Sudan, Somalia, Ethiopia and other countries. As someone who has followed Pres. Issias speeches for decades now this presentation was exceptional in its detail and breadth, disclosing an intricate web of crimes being committed by the UAE in their attempt to buy an “empire”. Of course one must not forget the Big Brother of the UAE, the US Central Intelligence Agency, by statute in charge of dirty dealings by the US internationally. The US has always preferred to leave their crimes to be committed by their compradores in the region, keeping their “deniability” and to be able claim their hands are clean.

Today the UAE cancer is shrinking, facing defeats on at least two fronts, Sudan and Ethiopia. In both cases Eritrea has played an important, if not decisive role, behind the scenes. In Somalia all the hard work the Eritreans put into training over 15,000 professional security forces has gone to naught and matters only seem to be getting worse for the Somali people.

But in Sudan and Ethiopia the UAE cancer is receeding and hopefully, with the continued leadership of Africa’s most successful Pan Africanist government and its President Issias Aferwerki it seems a cure for the UAE disease is possible, Inshallah?

Seminar focusing on cultural heritage and identity

The Commission of Culture and Sports organized a seminar on cultural heritage and identity for over 150 members of traditional dance and music groups from the Southern Region on 18 August in Asmara.

At the seminar, Dr. Tsegay Medin, head of Archaeological Heritage Research at the Commission, gave a detailed briefing on the meaning and significance of culture, the tangible and intangible aspects of cultural heritage, and the role of heritage in consolidating national identity.

Highlighting the importance of cultural heritage in preserving identity, understanding the current situation, and envisioning the future, Dr. Tsegay said that archaeological findings from the prehistoric and historic eras, including the period of kingdoms and colonialism, have made a significant contribution to nurturing national identity.

Dr. Tsegay further stated that the Commission of Culture and Sports is making strong efforts in research, conservation, and transmission of cultural heritage. He noted, however, that ongoing damage and destruction of heritage sites remain the main challenges.

The participants held extensive discussions on the issues raised during the seminar and adopted several recommendations. These included intensifying efforts to repatriate heritage items held abroad and addressing the damage caused to ancient buildings under the pretext of renovation.

Lt. Col. Samuel Tsegay, head of Administration and Finance at the Commission of Culture and Sports, and Mr. Abraham Yohannes, Director General of Culture and Sports in the Southern Region, emphasized the significance of the seminar and called for its continuation.

LOL. #Eritrea #Somalia #Djibouti #Sudan Abiy Ahmed's argument for #Ethiopia joining the Arab League is a total head scratcher, isn’t it? 👇🏿https://t.co/aHeGxixOkE He surely shows his ignorance on many fronts, confusing a few trees for the entire forest. 🤦🏾‍♂️😂

He basically argues that b/c many Ethiopians work in the Middle East or some have cultural/religious ties there, the entire nation should hitch its wagon to the Arab League. LOL! That's a classic case of a delusion or fallacy of composition, where he's ignorantly assuming that what's true for a part is true for the whole.

Obviously, well-being of citizens is super important, but again it's just one piece of the puzzle. Little does Abiy know that national interest is a complex beast, involving everything from economic stability and political sovereignty to security and int’l relations. Abiy seems to miss that memo entirely; or maybe not, as some allege he's just pursuing other powerful forces’ agenda-- 2, perhaps 3 of them, wink, wink. 🙈🤦🏾‍♂️

Needless to say, let's not even get started on the other major roadblocks he fails to mention or he doesn’t even know about. 1st, does he really think he can just ዳንስ or “Sirbaa” into the Arab League without Ethiopia adopting Arabic as its official language? What are the chances 80% of Ethiopia make Arabic their 1st language tomorrow? The funny part is he doesn’t even speak the Arabic language himself, 🙈🤦🏾‍♂️ LOL. It's like trying to join a club without knowing the secret handshake😂 And even if he could somehow pull that off, he's forgetting the 800 pound gorilla in the room: Misri.

Yeah, Misri/Egypt is a founding member w/ veto power, which isn't a fan of Ethiopia, &, &, & vice versa, especially w/ the whole Nile issue & the controversial MOU w/ Somaliland. Moreover, Abiy conveniently forgets to mention that the league "categorically" denounced Ethiopia, w/c makes Abiy's chances of getting in slimmer than a supermodel on a juice cleanse. 😂😂It's a classic ex. of Abiy of Ethiopia not knowing what he's doing, and it just goes to show that his argument isn't just a little weak-- it's completely stupid, and dead on arrival. But again, what else is new about this miserable and failed leader? May Allah/God help Ethiopia.
