A new installment of the Zionist/Imperialist propaganda effort to
demonize Sudan may be on its way to a theater near you. The film The
Devil Came on Horseback began screening at US theaters last July. The
film's web site describes the film, in part, thusly:
Using more than a thousand uncompromising and exclusive photographs
taken by former US Marine Captain Brian Steidle during his role as a
military observer with the African Union, THE DEVIL CAME ON HORSEBACK
propels the viewer through the tragic impact of an Arab government
bent on destroying its black African citizens.
The 30-page press packet claims: "This is a crisis based on race and
the government is targeting its own citizens." The filmmakers openly
associate and cooperate with the decidedly Zionist Save Darfur
Coalition. The films definitely calls the conflict "genocide" and
former US Marine infantry officer Steidle writes in a book of the same
title: "Why was the U.S. letting this happen? I had such faith that
the United States government would put an end to the violence if only
it had accurate and complete information."
Steidle came to prominence via the good graces of Nicholas Kristof of
the New York Times, who magnanimously wrote last year: "Africa
desperately needs Western help in the form of schools, clinics and
sweatshops." The Philadelphia Weekly describes Steidle as "a gung-ho,
battle-scarred 27-year-old vet" but doesn't say where he got his
battle scars. I've now listened to two interviews with Steidle and he
doesn't say either and, curiously, neither of the interviewers asked
him about his service in the US Marines.
On his personal web site, Steidle urges readers to:
Ask our government to support four things:
1) Deployment of a UN protection force
2) No-fly zone to stop the aerial attacks
3) Economic and military sanctions on Sudan
4) Cooperate with the International Criminal Court
US-backed no-fly zones and economic sanctions killed hundreds of
thousands, if not millions, of Iraqis after the first US Gulf War and
laid the groundwork for the US to invade that country in 2003. And
last August, Steidle told the Guardian that he found an "al-Qaida
training camp" in Sudan. Make no mistake the leaders of the Darfur
campaign are gunning for an imperialist war in Sudan and now is the
time to mobilize against it.
