Testimony of Gen. General Abdalaziz Adam Alhilu, SPLA/N General commander/Chief of staff of SPLA/N and Deputy Chairman of the SPLM
by Jerry Gordon and Deborah Martin
On April 26, 2017, the US House of Representatives Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health and Human Rights held a hearing on The Questionable Case for Easing Sanctions Sudan Sanctions. The issue arose with the partial lifting by President Obama just prior to leaving office in January 2017 of the 20 year economic sanctions against the Khartoum Regime of indicted war criminal Sudan President Omar Hassan al Bashir. A provision of the partial lifting of Sudan sanctions was a six month look back to determine if acts of terrorism and genocide have continued against the indigenous African people especially in Darfur, the Nuba Mountains, South Kordofan and the Blue Nile Region.
Over the past six months, The New English Review has published reports attesting to the continuing ethnic cleansing and genocide of indigenous peoples in these conflict regions citing specific instances of Khartoum Regime backed Janjaweed Militia- now renamed Rapid Support Force (RSF) or Peace Forces engaged in ethnic cleansing of villages and Internally Displaced Person Camps. The Janjaweed RSF Peace force is under the control of the National Intelligence Security Service (NISS) and Sudan Armed Force (SAF) Command. These reports have also uncovered a Secret Arab Coalition Plan that would replace indigenous people with Arab tribes to be completed prior to 2020. In many instances jihadist terrorists have been recruited from across the Sahel region and the Middle East. The objective of the Arab Coalition Plan is to resettle them in the lands formerly occupied by African tribal people with a view to creating a 150,000 man Jihad Army to create a Sharia-ruled Caliphate across the Sahel. The Arab Coalition Plan of the Khartoum Regime of President Bashir has the financial backing of the Emeriti members Gulf Cooperation Council and Saudi Arabia. These Jihadi recruits have been trained and organized in more than 16 camps in the Khartoum Region and equipped with arms and militarized pickup trucks. Further, there have been instances where the Janjaweed/ RSF Peace Forces have used prohibited chemical weapons of mass destruction coupled with bombings by Russian-supplied Antonov cargo planes of the Sudan Air Force on indigenous populations. And despite the evidence of abetting regional Islamic terrorism, the USAFRICOM, pursuant to so-called evidence of counterterrorism cooperation by the Bashir regime has included it in quarterly security reviews at its headquarters in Stuttgart, Germany.
For these reasons the authors solicited witness testimony from Sudan resistance leaders in Darfur and the Nuba Mountains exposing the Bashir regime’s Jihad genocide objectives of the Arab Coalition Plan .
Part 2 presents the testimony submitted to the House Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health and Human Rights of General Abdalaziz Adam Alhilu SPLA/N General commander/Chief of staff of SPLA/N and Deputy Chairman of the SPLM-N.

Submitted to US House of Representatives
Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health and Global Human Rights
April 26, 2017
My name is Gen. Abdalaziz Adam Alhilu, General Commander of the Sudan People’s Liberation Army –North (SPLA/N in the Nuba Mountains). I thank you for the opportunity to present my views for consideration of the Subcommittee on African Affairs on the reinstatement of sanctions against the regime of Sudan President Omar al-Bashir. The hearing subject raises fundamental questions. What should be done to deter Khartoum from their murderous plan since sanctions do not work, what might really work? Also what we can do to make the new Administration in Washington, DC administration understand our problem?
The Nuba, Funj and Darfur were the first targets of the National Islamic Front (NIF) state sponsored terrorism against its own citizens for the last 30 years. That same behavior forced South Sudan to opt for independence. The NIF is using Sharia Islamic laws to rally the Arabs in the North and legitimize the ethnic cleansing and genocide against the Africans and Christians in Sudan.
Note that Islamic Jihad was declared against the Nuba people regardless of religion or belief in 1992, and it is still in effect as of today. The Arabs in the North are using the Jihad declaration by Muslim Clerics and the NIF to absolve themselves from any guilt conscience, when they raid, kill (3,000,000), burn villages (400,000), and rape, enslave loot and displace the African citizens and communities. In the name of Jihad, the Arabs organized themselves as PDF, Mujahedeen, Rapid Support Force (RSF) etc.to support the NIF Islamic Army or so called Sudan Armed Force (SAF) in that holy war (Jihad).
That is the internal effect of the Sharia Laws. Externally it is even far reaching and dangerous to International peace and stability.
Since 1989 the NIF regime in Sudan turned into a strong hold for the Sunni International Islamic Movement (Muslim Brotherhood) worldwide. Sudan engaged in creating indoctrination and training ground for all Sunni based terrorist organizations (Al-Qaeda, ISIS, al-Nusra Front, and Boko Haram). Most people overlook Sudan, thinking Turkey is more dangerous. However, the Islamists in Turkey may be soon in full control of the state machinery to use it in the interest of the International Islamic Movement given the recent national referendum vote.
Others think Iran is more dangerous. While Iran may be leading Shiite sect, they are a minority in the Islamic world compared to Sunni Sects.
The International Islamic Movement represents the spearhead of the Pan Arabism Movement, pitted against the West in what has been called the Clash of Civilizations. Given the superiority of the West in terms of weaponry, the Islamists use strong nationalist zeal and hate to spearhead non- conventional warfare tactics and weapons to tilt the balance. 9/11 was an example. Something unexpected in the West , that Islamist would resort to using civil aviation planes to execute the most dangerous terrorist operation in history targeting the iconic World Trade Center in New York , the Pentagon in northern Virginia and the White House in Washington, DC.
Let us remind ourselves that, the first attempt on the World Trade Centre in 1993 was organized and conducted by the Muslim Brotherhood. The bombings of the Nairobi and Dar es Salaam US Embassies in 1998 was perpetrated by bin Laden’s Al Qaeda, an outgrowth of the Muslim Brotherhood.
In short, Sharia Laws and the terrorist nature of the Sudan regime are behind many of the internal and external problems we see today from the Sudan.
What should be done?
In order to end the genocide in Sudan, the USA should put more pressure on the Khartoum National Congress Party (NCP) regime of indicted war criminal President Omar al-Bashir to repeal and abrogate the Sharia Laws, in order to pave the way for peaceful and democratic transformation in the Sudan. This can be done through internationally supervised peace talks. If there is genuine secular and conventional democracy, the Islamists will not survive. They will transform over time, provided that they are deprived of the Sharia divine right to rule and terrorize using the resources of Sudan.
Removal of Sharia Laws, will stop Sudanese Islamists from enjoying state cover to practice terrorism and supporting Jihadists and terrorists globally from the Muslim ummah. It will stop human trafficking, money laundering and migration from Africa to the West. Khartoum is masterminding the destabilization in the Sub- Sahara Sahel Region and beyond in Chad, Central African Republic, Niger, Nigeria, Mali, Egypt and Libya.
Do not let the Bashir NCP regime in Khartoum fool anyone, with its deception plan. They say they can cooperate with the US and its allies in the war against terrorism. If they are not party to that, how could they get information about the terrorists? It is open political gaming with the Western intelligence agencies in order to have the sanctions against the NCP regime lifted. After lifting the sanctions they will resume and continue their old ways of support for Jihad and ethnic cleansing of indigenous African people in the Sudan and the Sahel.
They do not share common values of human rights, freedoms, rule of law with the USA, in order for them to provide all the information requested on the terrorist movements.They only trust their mentors and supporters of the International Islamic Movement.
Islamists can change on their own and deliver democratic transformation in Sudan and other countries. That is mere propaganda. The very nature of the organization and the Islamic teachings will prevent them from refraining from Jihad terrorism.
For the interest of peace and stability in Sudan, the Sahel region and internationally, the Bashir NIF / NCP regime should be have to be dismantled either peacefully or by force.
Thank you for the opportunity to presenting my views as Commander of the SPLA-North in the Nuba Mountains.
Part I is here. Part III is here.

it is my pleasure to present my opinion regarding lifting of Sudan sanctions. The war in Sudan has only one cause and one goal but multiple strategies to achieve the end result. Successive Arab based regime in Sudan had always one goal in mind and that is “Arabization and Islamisation of Sudan“. Achieving this goal is by exterminating the black African Sudanese which is a huge task. Sudan employed the following methods to exterminate the blacks.
Educational imbalances
building on the fault line of illiteracy level in Nuba mountains created by British Closed district system in Nuba mountains, Arab based regime in Khartoum made Islamic religion a requirement for admission in schools. As if that is not enough the regime went further to reject anyone whose name is not of Arab origin to be admitted in Schools. Besides that, the regime placed quota of 50 students to join high school and 12 students to joint universities with the rest joining Kurtala Quranic school where they are indoctrinated to be used later as agents against their own people in the name of religious differences. This model was mainly designed to exclude Christians and traditional believers from acquiring knowledge which Arabs viewed as a threat to their demonic project. This systemic exclusion does not only create a polarized society but a host of illiterate generation that will be easy to manipulate for the Arabization project in Sudan.
deliberate economic imbalance
to fulfil the Arab world`s dream of Making Sudan a food basket for Arab world, Sudanese government passed a legislation in 1960s which legitimized the government taking over the agricultural lands in Nuba mountains turning them to mechanized farm land with the funding from Gulf states. This system coupled with lack of know how deprived indigenous people from their own resources and state resources exacerbating poverty rate among the black hence exposing them to forceful and manipulative subjugation.
Religion
When Sharia law was passed in Sudan in 1980s followed by rebellion of 1983 in which Nuba people joined, Sudanese government resorted to more brutal means of deterring Nuba from joining the rebellion which resulted to killing of the youth with specific target of any educated Nubian regardless of their religious background unless one was their collaborator a situation that is tantamount to terrorism. After unsuccessful deterrence, Sudan unleash its stealthy arsenal (Islamic Religion) which will bring to its camp Arab extremists and dictators like Saddam Hussein. To justify its ethnic cleansing project, Sudanese Islamists Sheikhs issued a fatwa declaring jihad on Kufr and infidels of (as they call it) Nuba mountains and South Sudan. Since many Nubians are Muslims including founder of Nuba liberation late Yousef Kuwa, those Muslims in Liberated areas were not considered to be true Muslims hence referred to as (apostates) giving Khartoum Arab based regime together with its allies to exterminate Nuba race and South Sudanese from Sudan`s map prompting Iraqi forces to actively engage in combat along Bashir`s troops both in South Sudan and Nuba Mountains in 1990s. from 1990s to 2002, the Sudanese government recruited jihadist and casually paid poor Sudanese Nationals of Black origin to clear their fellow Sudanese. To prove my point of Khartoum determination to eliminate black African in Sudan, immediately after signing cease fire with SPLA, Sudan launched a catastrophic ethnic based war in Darfur regardless of Darfur being purely Muslims hence the war strategy was mapping and eradicating the target incrementally since wagging war in both Darfur and, South Sudan and Nuba mountains would have been disastrous
War of terror
The war in Sudan is openly terrorism characterized by ethnic cleansing, Mass rape and use of weapons of mass destruction and recruiting Islamic extremists such as Al-Qaida and Boko-Haram as proven by the existence of Boko-Haram in SPLA-N`s jails caught along Bashirs`during NIF`s summer decisive campaign. Sudan has gone extra mile to change demographic structure in Darfur by terrorizing the locals using foreign militia which occupy the land of Darfurian making Darfurian squatters in their own land.
Solutions
Cooperation with NIF NCP regime in Khartoum is complicity in crime against humanity which most of the Arab countries have been doing as part of Arab grand coalition with the Europe joining with the hope of stemming illegal immigration and finally America in pretext of counter terrorism. With both European and American rapprochement with Khartoum government NIF terrorist organization and its terrorist network has successfully played into the fear of American government and European union which is exactly a terrorist deceptive methods. If one could question how Sudan obtain its terrorists intelligence and why there is no retaliation on Sudan government through terrorist attack regardless of the porosity of Sudanese border, then one could actually question the credibility of Sudan`s terrorist intelligence which America claim to rely on. On the same note the immigrants that European union struggle to stop are mostly Sudanese making Sudan the major generator of immigrants hence the card of immigrant influx is in NIF hands making them to manipulate the influx of immigrants as it wishes. Therefore, the only solution to such problems is to forcefully dismantle NIF and its network of terrorist since terrorist understand only one language `force“
Lifting of sanctions
Sanctions are designed to change states` behavior through economic coercion. This can happen either by the state voluntarily changing its behavior or changing the regime by frustrated mass. However, sanction can`t be used against terrorist like regimes like NIF. If sanction remain in place is harmful to Sudanese nationals under NIF regime since the government will use any means to squeeze the last penny out of tea sellers purse and any attempt by mass against the regime will be brutally met by life bullet as the Criminal leader put it during his address in Port Sudan in December last year that `they know Us very well if they want, let us meet in the street` referring to 2013 massacre of over 200 protesters. And if the sanction is lift, the NIF will freely import lethal weapons to complete their mission of ethnic cleansing against Sudanese nationals in liberated areas. Since sanction does not work against terrorist as they have nothing to loss, the only solution is dismantling the NIF and its terrorist network or else the super power countries continue their complicity in atrocities in Sudan otherwise preaching against atrocities while engaging in it is an act of hypocrisy.

Since many Nubians are Muslims including founder of Nuba liberation late Yousef Kuwa, those Muslims in Liberated areas were not considered to be true Muslims hence referred to as (apostates) giving Khartoum Arab based regime together with its allies to exterminate Nuba race and South Sudanese from Sudan`s map prompting Iraqi forces to actively engage in combat along Bashir`s troops both in South Sudan and Nuba Mountains in 1990s. from 1990s to 2002, the Sudanese government recruited jihadist and casually paid poor Sudanese Nationals of Black origin to clear their fellow Sudanese. To prove my point of Khartoum determination to eliminate black African in Sudan, immediately after signing cease fire with SPLA, Sudan launched a catastrophic ethnic based war in Darfur regardless of Darfur being purely Muslims hence the war strategy was mapping and eradicating the target incrementally since wagging war in both Darfur and, South Sudan and Nuba mountains would have been disastrous
War of terror
The war in Sudan is openly terrorism characterized by ethnic cleansing, Mass rape and use of weapons of mass destruction and recruiting Islamic extremists such as Al-Qaida and Boko-Haram as proven by the existence of Boko-Haram in SPLA-N`s jails caught along Bashirs`during NIF`s summer decisive campaign. Sudan has gone extra mile to change demographic structure in Darfur by terrorizing the locals using foreign militia which occupy the land of Darfurian making Darfurian squatters in their own land.
Solutions
Cooperation with NIF NCP regime in Khartoum is complicity in crime against humanity which most of the Arab countries have been doing as part of Arab grand coalition with the Europe joining with the hope of stemming illegal immigration and finally America in pretext of counter terrorism. With both European and American rapprochement with Khartoum government NIF terrorist organization and its terrorist network has successfully played into the fear of American government and European union which is exactly a terrorist deceptive methods. If one could question how Sudan obtain its terrorists intelligence and why there is no retaliation on Sudan government through terrorist attack regardless of the porosity of Sudanese border, then one could actually question the credibility of Sudan`s terrorist intelligence which America claim to rely on. On the same note the immigrants that European union struggle to stop are mostly Sudanese making Sudan the major generator of immigrants hence the card of immigrant influx is in NIF hands making them to manipulate the influx of immigrants as it wishes. Therefore, the only solution to such problems is to forcefully dismantle NIF and its network of terrorist since terrorist understand only one language `force“
Lifting of sanctions
Sanctions are designed to change states` behavior through economic coercion. This can happen either by the state voluntarily changing its behavior or changing the regime by frustrated mass. However, sanction can`t be used against terrorist like regimes like NIF. If sanction remain in place is harmful to Sudanese nationals under NIF regime since the government will use any means to squeeze the last penny out of tea sellers purse and any attempt by mass against the regime will be brutally met by life bullet as the Criminal leader put it during his address in Port Sudan in December last year that `they know Us very well if they want, let us meet in the street` referring to 2013 massacre of over 200 protesters. And if the sanction is lift, the NIF will freely import lethal weapons to complete their mission of ethnic cleansing against Sudanese nationals in liberated areas. Since sanction does not work against terrorist as they have nothing to loss, the only solution is dismantling the NIF and its terrorist network or else the super power countries continue their complicity in atrocities in Sudan otherwise preaching against atrocities while engaging in it is an act of hypocrisy.
