On the other Hand Sudan is a targeted Islamic country. As the Sudanese president, Bashir, said: “Sudan is a target. All the Muslim countries of the region are now being targeted,” there is a plan to redraw the map of the region. Every state in the region should be weakened to guarantee “Israel’s security.” Thus US congress, pro Zionist, has put in place economic sanction to create pressure on Sudan’s weak economy for destabilization which has worsen human condition in Sudan and has forced population to fight each other for scarce resources. Due to disinformation campaign which was conducted by JAMES JACOBY, a Zionist pro Israel, who directed American Anti-Slavery Group With a phony charge of ‘child slavery’ and managed to secure national media coverage with help from Harvard University against Sudan to form semi autonomous south in Sudan with the “leadership” of John Garang who received military training and financial support from Israel and US. The genocide in Darfur has been manufactured by the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Boston (JCRC) sponsored organizations that are staffed by Israel advocates trained by the David Project, Israel advocacy organization run by James Jacobs, have further poisoned human rights discourse with the dishonest ‘Save Darfur’ campaign aimed at divesting from Sudan as well as from any country which does business with Sudan. The David Project has proven uncommonly effective at changing US policy in a matter of months to listing Sudan as a terrorist nation and barring all trade with the country. While pro-Palestine activists have struggled for years to slow the stream of US public funds to Israel, Jacob’s anti-Sudan campaign is probably the quickest divestment success in US history. Thanks to the ongoing efforts of JCRCs and affiliated groups, Sudan divestment resolutions have become law in Iowa. We know that Noam Chomsky is against divesting from Israel. Noam Chomsky would have voted with the Zionist Congress and the England House of representative against such a measure. However, it is interesting that you compare case of Israel, an illegitimate apartheid state with a targeted Islamic country where the fight and death of people is due to economic sanction and lack of resources and military support of the manufactured ‘black African’ against ‘white Arab’ by the Zionist/imperialist forces. The root causes of “human rights” crises in Sudan in part has bee created by the Zionists and US which lead to large number of death and refugees camp. On the other hand Israel human rights abuses is directly related to its expansionist policy, racist policy and Apartheid system yet US and the west rewards Israel for its action and punish Sudan or other countries that do not cooperate with expantionist policy of Israel. Mr. Ruebner dilutes human rights abuses of Israel when he compares Sudan with Israel. The nature of the problems is not the same. “human rights” violation in Sudan is largely manufactured by Zionist lobby and US to destabilize Sudan for further division and Israel violation of human rights is due to its racist, expantionist policy. Israel is supported by US and the West. The writer of this article like Noam Chomsky has hide the role of the Zionist lobby in the implementation of US policy and kept the veil of ignorance intact to protect the interest of Israel.

Britain's UCU (university & college union) which shamefully backed down on its academic boycott of Israel when racist members of UCU and of the Academic Friends of Israel threatened them with lawyers, warning them they didn't have a leg to stand on. UCU however will not answer questions regarding the 700 (see HRW) or so Palestinian students that have been stopped from travel abroad by israel or the fact that Israel is responsible for massive human rights abuses. No doubt UCU heads are on the Israeli payroll. Very good article.
