War, Love, and Cholera

By Rashed Abdul Rahim

Many Sudanese communists and leftists are great admirers for the Colombian writer and leftist social activist, Gabriel Garcia Marquez and his famous novel “One Hundred Years of Solitude.” The author has another novel that is no less important than this one, which is “Love in the Time of Cholera.” This novel perfectly narrates the opportunism of the left in our country, an opportunism that emerged with the Corona pandemic, which they exploited in an attempt to pass their ugly objectives.

The novel relates the story of the lover Florentino who invited his beloved Fermina for a sea trip, which provided them with an opportunity to get closer to each other. To be alone with his beloved, Florentino decided to spread a rumor on the ship that a cholera epidemic had spread among them. The captain believed him and announced the epidemic, prompting the authorities to quarantine the ship. Their journey continued without stopping except for refueling, and it did not dock anywhere. The two lovers did not care about this because they felt they had reached a stage beyond love, which is the stage of loving for the sake of love per se.

With a sense of self-love and exploitation, the left and the political rebellion faction showed up now, with Khaled Silk announcing a call for an ” immediate ceasefire to allow for the entry of aid and a peaceful negotiated solution to address the issues that led to the war.”

Hamdok did not hesitate as he sought to restore his decayed image on the stage, claiming that he has made “calls with many regional and international bodies to contain the health disaster in Sudan.” They cry out at a time their resistance committees sink into deep silence and shame. In the meantime, individuals work diligently to provide the highest services and with the required speed.

Two women provided thirty thousand drips to isolation centers, while journalist Othman Al-Jundi coordinated with the Sudanese Red Crescent to provide large quantities of intravenous solutions (drips) and preventive tablets and kinesiotape for the patients. Silik and Hamdok found no response other than a tongue of deceit and lies as they hide their vested objectives aimed at introducing international organizations to pave the way for access to the Sudanese who have rejected them and their allies. We have seen international organizations and their vehicles rushing to combat zones, not to help those in need, but to deliver supplies to the rebels and assist in relocating the injured rebel leaders away from the battle fields. Silk and Hamdok did not denounce the actions of the militia that poisoned drinking water in Al-Hil Aliyah and repeated the same ugly action in Al-Salha, allowing the epidemic to spread.

They kept mum while the rebel militias were stealing medicines from medical supplies and equipment from major hospitals and transporting them to Nyala and Dhaein. They were silent and then rushed to exploit an epidemic ignoring that this was an infection which is easy to control and protect people from it. In fact, the Khartoum State and the Federal Ministry of Health have done this in their ongoing efforts, the tours of the minister and the governor in the epidemic affected areas confirmed that most had arrived late and some died on the way, because the rebellion prevented services, water and treatment.

These rounds showed that what was monitored yesterday was the presence of 574 recovered cases362, which are currently undergoing intensive treatment, and 45 deaths. Tomorrow, the pandemic will end, and with it the activity of the social media pages of the left and its supporters who infiltrate the Ministry of Health, under the nose of the senior officials, and with it will end the calls inviting international organizations to come to Sudan, organizations that are complicit and seek to exploit the pandemic in order to make cheap gains out of the people suffering and need.
