[SUDANTRIBUNE] Three Sudanese political groups voiced their support for normalization with Israel and called to accept the American offer of normalization, in exchange for removing Sudan from the list of State Sponsors of Terrorism (SST).
Mubarak al-Faled leaders of the Umma Party, Abu al-Qasim Imam, chairman of the Sudan Liberation Movement - the Second Revolution and Hameed Mohammed Hamid, a leading remember of the Eastern Front held a joint presser in Khartoum on Wednesday to announce their position in favour of normalization with Israel.
The move of the three groups comes after a recent meeting in Abu Dhabi between Sudanese and U.S. officials to discuss normalization with Israel as part of a deal including Sudan removal from the SST list and a package of support.
However, it was a brave man who first ate an oyster... Sudan declined the deal because the proposed support was below its expectations.
"The American proposal is governed by the period of the upcoming presidential elections, and we should not miss this historic opportunity," said al-Fadel.
"After the results of the US presidential elections are announced, we will enter into a major crisis in Sudan if we do not agree to the offer made in the UAE."
"Sudan will not be removed from the terrorism list for many years if we do not take advantage of the existing opportunity," he added.
American will vote on 3 November and the president will be inaugurated on 20 January 2021.
Some Democrat senators from New York and New Jersey are opposed to legislation restoring Sudan sovereign immunities saying Sudan should be for the victims of the 9/11 terror attacks.
Sudan has not been condemned for its involvement in these attacks but some believe that as long as it remains in the SST list, they can easily sue it before the U.S. courts and get a rule against the East African country.
Beside Islamist political groups, there are some other political forces opposed to the normalization with Israel before to reach a peace agreement with the Paleostinians such as the National Umma Party of Sadiq al-Mahdi, the Communist Party, and the Arab nationalist groups.
Prime Minister Hamdok said he told U.S. Secretary of State Michael Pompeo that deep societal dialogue is needed among Sudanese before to normalise relations with Israel.
For his part, Imam announced their intention to form a "political front in support of normalization with Israel."
"We have a consistent common position with the establishment of Sudanese-Israeli relations and we are moving in this direction," he stressed.
The Darfurian politician called on the Sudanese Security and Defense Council to hold an emergency meeting in order to endorse the American offer before the U.S. elections at the beginning of next month.

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Macron has coined the term 'separatism' to describe the underworld that thrives in some neighborhoods around France where Muslims with a radical vision of their religion take control of the local population to inculcate their beliefs.
But members of France's six-million-strong Muslim community — the largest in Western Europe — immediately accused him of stirring up Islamophobic and racist feeling so as to appeal to far-Right voters.
A new law will allow the dissolution of religious groups that 'attack the dignity of people, using psychological or physical pressure, and break the values of France'.
There will also be an end to the system of 'seconded Imams' which allows extremist clerics and other preachers to be trained abroad before moving to France.
He said all French Imams would have to be certified from now on and could be shut down at any time.
The equivalent of more than £9.7million will be spent of work France's Islam Foundation – a moderate organisation which promotes traditional Muslim study in culture, history and science.
Mr Macron said this would help to ensure the dominance of a religion 'respects the values of the Republic'.
Some 1,700 private Muslim school and colleges currently teach around 85,000 children in France.
The law is expected to go before parliament for debate in the first part of next year.
Lose Pepe le Muslim, that nuisance
To France? But has this not been true since
The time of Martel?
Well, aux armes! Ring the bell
Lest Islam be reduced to impuissance:
Awaken, spirit of Vercingetorix!
Defend our tradition of liberty against hateful rhetorics! Notre islame ne doit pas brûler!
[APNEWS] The organizer of a Southern Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, rally against police brutality and racism was charged with attempted murder Tuesday for driving her car into counterprotesters and running over a woman’s head.
Tatiana Turner deliberately drove into a crowd of President Donald Trump ...the Nailer of NAFTA... ’s supporters with the intent to kill the woman and also seriously injured a man who broke his leg, Orange County prosecutors said.
"She positioned her vehicle to be used as a backup weapon and she used that vehicle as a deadly weapon, willing to injure and kill those who stood in her way," District Attorney Todd Spitzer said in a statement.
A defense lawyer said Turner tried unsuccessfully to get help from deputies Saturday in Yorba Linda after her group was overwhelmed by a hostile crowd.
Turner saw people with guns and feared for her life when she got into her car that was blocked by Trump supporters, attorney Ludlow Creary II said. She was trying to get away and didn’t intend to hit anyone.
"There were actions that caused her to become fearful for her life and that’s when she accelerated," Creary said.
Turner, 40, made her first appearance in court remotely from the jail and was ordered held on $1 million bail. A not guilty plea was entered on her behalf by her lawyer.
The incident is one of more than 100 where motorists have plowed into demonstrations since late May, following protests against police brutality that grew nationwide over the killing of George Floyd by a Minneapolis officer, according to Ari Weil, deputy director on the reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown ...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel... Project on Security and Threats at the University of Chicago.
The vast majority of those cases tallied by Weil involved motorists who ran into those demonstrating for causes aligned with the Black Lives Matter movement, Weil said. He knows of only one other instance where that wasn’t the case when a man drove into a people rallying in support of coppers in Eaton, Colorado, in July.
"It’s a man bites dog case when compared to the usual pattern," said Jody Armour, a law professor at the University of Southern California.
Armour said it may be difficult for prosecutors to prove Turner tried to kill someone because it requires showing she was more than just reckless or negligent.
"When you’re talking about attempted murder, you’re talking a requirement that the state prove that ... she drove into the crowd with the true purpose to cause someone’s death," Armour said. "That says something about their motivations, their character, their state of mind. It’s a value judgment. It’s a moral judgment.”

Uh, I'm gonna call BS on that, perfesser. Intent can be inferred from conduct, and driving a 3,000lb hunk of metal at someone is pretty good evidence of intent. She didn't know the car was loaded? Also, does your analysis apply to Kyle Rittenhouse? Asking for a friend.
