Shortly after Sudan’s Foreign Minister Ali Karti on Wednesday accused Israel of carrying out an attack on Tuesday near Port Sudan that killed two people, Arabic news daily Al-Arabiya reported that one of the targets was a senior Hamas military commander.
The report said that the second man that was killed was a local citizen.
Sudan’s foreign minister said Khartoum reserved the right to react to the aggression. “This is absolutely an Israeli attack,” he told reporters.
He said Israel undertook the attack in order to scupper Sudan’s chances of being removed from a US list of state sponsors of terrorism.
Don’t you just love the rationale of the Sudanese foreign minister? He claims we killed this Hamas commander in an attempt to keep Sudan on the US list of terror sponsors. As opposed to – you know – killing a dangerous terrorist working to kill innocent people.
Not that there is any proof we did it. Although if we did – well done!
