From our deep understanding of social revolution as anarchists and our revolutionary duty, we present our perspective and proposals for solutions concerning our beloved homeland and its people.
We have witnessed how political forces, alongside their ally, the Janjaweed, and the same forces that conspired with them to violently disperse the sit-in and kill Sudanese youth, have now agreed to divide the country after failing in their attempt to fully control it.
The Sudanese street, which united with conscious revolutionary spontaneity under clear slogans— »The military to the barracks, the Janjaweed must dissolve »—is now facing an attempt by all the forces it stood against to slaughter its revolution.
The Janjaweed’s adoption of revolutionary principles, along with their allies, is nothing but empty slogans devoid of meaning. The wolf is trying to wear the sheep’s wool. We therefore warn revolutionaries worldwide against falling for their vile tricks. Any support directed towards political forces in Sudan ultimately serves the counter-revolution and buries it.
Just as counter-revolutionary forces have always sought to criminalize revolutionary action, the propaganda of the former regime is intensifying. We categorically reject the exploitation of the Sudanese people’s sacrifices in defending themselves against the imperialist partitioning project, carried out by political forces affiliated with the former regime. The Sudanese people fought against the Janjaweed in self-defense, not for political gain or power.
A Message to the Revolutionaries
The Janjaweed, their political allies, and the remnants of the former regime are enemies of the revolution. This fact has not changed, and the revolution continues. We urge you to reject the racial supremacist discourse that has spread during this war and to unite against the systematic war propaganda. Do not be dragged behind ideological propaganda; instead, assess the revolutionary situation truthfully.
The right to self-defense is a natural right. We do not oppose anyone defending themselves, their land, or their family—this is an inherent human right.
We have witnessed horrific crimes committed by the warring factions. While we stand firmly against the Janjaweed until they are completely dissolved, we also condemn all unjustified crimes committed by state forces. Even under oppressive laws, the right to self-defense is recognized, and legal frameworks exist for addressing crimes. We reject the extrajudicial application of justice, as it only perpetuates cycles of revenge. Crime cannot be countered with another crime.
We call upon revolutionaries to unite behind the idea of mutual aid and solidarity, so we may rise from the wreckage of these schemes that seek to bury the revolution. And we say this: Whoever tries to bury the revolution, know that revolution is a seed—once buried, it will only grow into stronger and more fruitful trees.
Long live the revolution!
Long live freedom!
