COMMENT | The world remains silent as Sudan bleeds. Babies are raped, mothers are buried alive, and fathers are beheaded. Villages vanish overnight, and generations disappear before they can even speak their names.

Is the silence of the world because the victims are black? Because their lives do not fit the global definition of tragedy?

Where is the flotilla that once sailed for Palestine? Where is the solidarity that once shook the streets in protest? Where are the Arab leaders who speak of brotherhood but look away when Africa burns? And does Malaysia even care?

Sudan is burning. Once a proud Muslim nation on African soil, it is now torn apart by war between two generals who once stood on the same side.
