Sudan a 'Dangerous Terrorist State', Says Israeli Official

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Sudan is a "dangerous terrorist state," a top Israeli defense official said on Thursday after the Sudanese government accused Israel of carrying out a deadly missile strike on a military factory in Khartoum.

Sudanese officials say the attack on the Yarmouk facility south of Khartoum, which took place at around midnight on Tuesday and killed two people, was carried out by four radar-evading aircraft.

Israel, which has long accused Khartoum of serving as a base for Islamist Hamas fighters, has refused all comment on the claim.

"Sudan is a dangerous terrorist state. To know exactly what happened (there), it will take some time to understand," Amos Gilad told Israel's army radio.

Asked directly whether Israel was involved in the attack, Gilad, who serves as director of policy and political-military affairs at the Defense Ministry, refused to reply directly.

The Israeli air force, he noted, was "one of the most prestigious in the world, a fact which had been proved many times in the past."

"There are different versions of the Sudanese side, so there is no reason to go into details," he said, without elaborating.

Khartoum has said it found evidence of Israeli involvement among the remnants of the explosives at the blast site.

"We think Israel did the bombing," Culture and Information Minister Ahmed Bilal Osman said, adding: "We reserve the right to react at a place and time we choose."

Look through what has happened in and around Sudan in the last few years, their wars with South Sudan, their President being charged with war crimes, etc. and then tell us that what the Israeli official said is not true.

Even, and I emphasise EVEN, if Israel has 600 nuclear warheads, she has never threatened to wipe out a UN member state, as your dear friends in Iran threaten day after day.

Words of wisdom... you should not address these retards blinded with hate and envy... Sudan and Iran have been outsourcing terror forever and may end up wiped out off the planet... I hope...

FT - Wow REAL CONCRETE, IRREFUTABLE DEEDS.
The whole world is now waiting with baited breath for you to show them all your irrefutable evidence.
Once again, FT your one directional line of thought can only spew out anti-Israel rubbish.
Believe it or not (you probably won't anyway) it has been proved dozens of times that Israel is NOT responsible for everything that happens in the Middle East

FT.... It was Hamas that fired those 40 rockets, maybe the gazans got excited by mouwza ?

You are so wrong my friend!!! they are playing us against each other..

FT - Firstly even this website states categorically that the Israeli air strikes on Gaza came as RETALIATION to over 60 missiles being fired at civilians in Israel.
Secondly - Everyone is showing the attacks on Khartoum, but NOONE (except you) has proved that it was Israeli Air Raids.
Thirdly - I won't lower myself to your level to answer you stupidity in the last part of your comment.

I think we should be grateful for Israeli raiding khartoum's weapon factory giving the nature of the Sudanese regime.

7aram Israel. They never bombed innocent children numerous times in Lebanon. They did not occupy any neighbouring counties. They never were responsible with their savage allies for the Sabra and Chatilla massacres. Innocent state Israel. They are always the victims even though they have been the killing machine in the middle east for the past six decades

Announcing Drone Flight number HZB101 Khartoum - Tel Aviv

Missing phillipo 25 October 2012, 17:09

So are you saying that HZB has a branch in Khartoum?

I put 2 comments "all the arguments of M14 about the sunni street being fed up are bullshit". The proof: 38% of those arrested 2 days ago are not even lebanese.(palestinian and syrian). This is the proof that the current unrest is manufactured by a takfiri and not grassroot lebanese "sunni street". Naharnet removed both comments.
Still I dont consider it an achievment to fly an iranian drone. It is a feat for iran. We are just a tool, and i dont like that.

funny to see M8 supporters defend the sudanese regime... i guess if israel bombed saudi arabia they would defend saudis too, no? you know the ones they call wahabis, same regime as in sudan!! :). only because israel is involved!

double M8 standards as usual! hahaha!
instead of being neutral on this issue as both sides involved are as dangerous, sunni extremists vs sionists... LOL

and they defend sudanese regime forgetting how much they killed christians from the south!
FPMers are laughable and pitiful!

Thumb makhaleh 25 October 2012, 20:16

they wont say anything if saudi gets bombed...its not IRAN or a supporter of it plus they are all sunnis and are considered to be dirt to shiats cuz instead of fighting....we like to fix problems like human beings by talking and compromising walaw thats the reason y they think they are better then the rest of the world cuz they use weapons and promote hate w terrorism.....IRANIANS once fell and history shall repeat itself

Put it this way:
Iran regime has killed over 20 000 men and women in their jails.
Syria regime has killed and jailed hundred times more Syrians, Lebanese and palestinians than Israel has ever done
Sudan has killed hundreds of thousands of its population in Darfour, thousands of Christians in South Sudan, backed al Quaeda and Ben Laden.
There is no democracy nor justice neither in Sudan, Syria nor Iran which are all run by tyrant regime bringing harm and misery to their population.
Please explain us your definition for terrorist state.
