Parallels and Contrasts: Examining Support for SAF in Sudan and Assad in Syria

-
The comparison between supporters of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) in Sudan and those who supported Bashar al-Assad in Syria has some parallels but also important differences. Both situations involve complex conflicts driven by a mix of local, regional, and international factors, and the motivations of supporters in each case vary significantly. Similarities: 1. State vs. Insurgent Dynamics : Supporters of both SAF and Assad often frame their stance as supporting the legitimate government or state apparatus against what they perceive as insurgents, rebels, or illegitimate actors (RSF in Sudan and various rebel groups in Syria). 2.

Bashir’s options are limited, if he stays in Sudan he will prosecuted or even handed over to ICC , the only place where he can run to which out of the reach of ICC is either KSA or Iran but both countries will be risking relations with the new Sudan. Take my word, he will fight to the end, the question what will the men around him do? The current demonstration is gaining momentum and traction. Students start it but now more sectors of the Sudanese community are involved and the numbers of participants is increasing day after day. It is just a matter of time for the Bashir’s government to collapse. Sudan is late in its “Spring” compared to other Arab nations such Tunisia or Egypt but in fact Sudan is a head of the curve. This will be the THIRD time people of Sudan revolts against a dictator,...
