More DescriptionIt is accepted in political conflicts vie to control and dominate which makes politicians invent, create and apply devious tricks to domain. A common one is the philosophy of divide and rule between nations and people. However, within a nation such tool can turn into a stigma that may get out of hand and become fatal for such malicious political strive. The Darfur dilemma is a vivid example of rebellion that was triggered because of uneven governmental development and turned into multiple revolutions. It started in 2003 with rebels attacking the main city of Northern Darfur, El Fasher. The government decided that the rebellion can finished with military power of suppression. However, after sixty-seven defeats of the army, they reverted to recruiting the infamous militia known as the Janjaweed. Truly, the latter tremendously succeeded, but only in terrorizing the Darfur Greater Region's civilians. Villages and crops were burned, wells buried or poisoned and mass killings happened everywhere. However, hatred of whatever ethnic or tribal targeting inflamed the rebellion. The latter single movement hatched more and more. The Janjaweed militia were not able to contain such massive rebellions in such great region. It was apparent even for members of the military Junta in Khartoum that peaceful negotiations are inevitable. However, whatever deals or negotiations carried out failed to contain the crisis which continue to escalate for ten years.
