JEM rebels attack airport used by oil firms in South Kordofan’s Heglieg
June 13, 2011 (KHARTOUM) — The rebel Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) carried out an attack on the airport of the oil rich area of Heglieg saying it wanted to warn petroleum companies to stop facilities to the Sudanese army.
In a statement released on Monday signed by Fidail Mohamed Rahoma, a member of JEM Military High Command, the rebel groups said “a small military contingent belonging JEM Kordofan branch made a successful attack at Heglieg Airport on Thursday 9 June.
JEM further said the “attack and brief occupation of the airport were meant to send a clear message to oil companies that use of their airports and other facilities by GoS, its army and militia will not go unpunished by the Movement”.
Sudanese officials were not available to confirm the attack, also the rebel group did not mention any human and material casualties.
For over week there have been clashes in central state of South Kordofan state on the northern side of the Sudan’s north – south, between the Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) and the Sudan People’s Liberation Army (SPLA).
The political wing of the SPLA – the SPLM – lost May’s gubernatorial elections to the National Congress Party who govern North Sudan. The result was contested by the SPLM – whose southern sector govern the South which will become independent in July – despite the election being endorsed by the international community.
Soon after the result the nothern government all SPLA soldiers must move south of the border or disarm, despite the soldiers being from South Kordofan not South Sudan.
The pro-Sudanese government media in Khartoum alleged that Unity State governor Taban Deng was encouraging the rebel group to carry out attacks in South Kordofan. Khartoum and Juba used to accuse each other of supporting rebel groups from both sides.
The Sudanese government and JEM rebels failed to agree on the agenda of the peace talks in Doha after the adoption of the Peace Document, a framework agreement, by the stakeholders conference on 31 May.
The Sudanese government offered to negotiate only on the security arrangements and the participation of the rebel group in the central and regional institutions but JEM said talks should include all the chapters of the peace document.

Khartoum accusing Juba of supporting rebel which town in south Sudan currently host khartoum rebels? But if we go to Al Obiet now we shall fine those of Athor, Getdet and Ayii what a hell are you talking about shameless government? Town is a state governor how do you assume his powers to reach there?
Talk talk and talk but am sure that SPLA of Juba not Koradufan will teach you lesson last than four weeks from now ya mother fuckers

Dear South Sudanese,
Interestingly there is no smoke without fire as the saying goes.
So, JEM forces of Darfur attacked Higlig oilfields between Unity state and South Kordufan on 9 June! Wow, that is the reason why SAF air planes bombarded Parieng county of Unity state near Higlig at the same time last week to repel the Darfur rebels.
SPLA should not use foolish war tactics by inviting JEM to the North-South border. This will soon be used by Khartoum to invade the South. Remember what they did in Northern Bhar el Ghazal when they suspected JEM in the area.
If JEM wants to have military alliance with SPLA, let them attack Kadugli in the North and not station themselves at the North-South border.
Higlig is supposed to be in Unity state, not Abyei or now in South Kordufan. It was the poor and greedy tactic of Abyei sons in Nairobi before the CPA was signed that they claimed Higlig oilfields as part of Abyei instead of Unity state. Late Garang gave them higlig, but now they have lost it to the north in South Kordufan. If it remained in Unity state, South Kordufan would let have claimed it now. But still Unity state will get it back.
And please don’t make a mistake of inviting JEM to North-South border before July 9. This will be used by SAF to attack the South. It is a foolish maneuver on the part of the SPLA or whoever is proud of JEM coming to Parieng county of Unity state.

You people simply fond of war and hatred without using your brain for a single second! That if you have brain to think with!
If the oil industry is harmed , it is the south which going to suffer badly. The south will suffer, but that can be compensated.You need stable North so that your oil can pass though to the international markets!
If you want to fight proxy war, the south will suffer much more. The SPLA itself which is supposed to be the national army is still divided along tribal lines. The sense of a nation is not yet a reality.The uniting factor for the many is hatred to the Arbs, jalabba, mandokorrow. No nation can ever be build on the basis of hatred!
You may have invested in your hatred to Arabs to earn you an asylum visa, but the people of the south will neither benifit from your hatred nor from your visa!
Think of peace and love which will build your country into a nation, peaceful within itself and with its neighbours. Southerners who lived in the north for the last 20 years particulary the young genration , who were repatriated are making a very simple comparison between the peace they are were finding here in the north and the turmoil, chaos and insecurity they are facing every day now in their new home and country!
Hatred will destroy the south without affecting the north.

Many thaks JEM,If all united in 1980s and fight this bashir Government that takes our wealth to Asian countries , could fall.and native could have enjoy freedom now.But, Omar Bashir and DR.Turabi who is now victimized cheated mass/public in Darfur, Kordufan, Blue Nile and eastern Sudan that this War is between muslim and christain. Look now is it religious war again???????.If so, are Darfurian slaughtered like sheep every day not Muslim????????????????????????????????????????????????.Truely this what late Garang have been saying in his speech that,religion is separate formGovernment. Why do people in sudan suffered in their mother land and Islam is use are shield by government cultivate hatred in peopleand Marganilizing natives .they loot money of oil and build new khartoum in Malasia and Saudi Arabia.GOSS is not supporting any rebel like the way Khartoum is doing in El Obied and Damazin.There is build up of Malitias in Blue Nile to attack rank county in the future,couple of week ago George Athor came to Ressieros in Damazin looking for people to recruit and it is Government who paved all his ways.
Bashir is in panic for fact that JEM and others will united and handover Hyena to ICC.

Dear Mohamed i think it is very obvious – First that these morons have no brain to think with but war. Second the so called claim by JEM that it attacked the airfield and not the installations themselves proves even more their collaboration with the SPLM. Like you said – they probably know that if they damage the oil installations the money will run out. So by attacking the airport they can send a strong signal to the GOS. But the other brainless idiots in JEM dont know is that the GOS knows who is pushing their buttons and will not only retaliate on them but the SPLM. They SAF knew what you idiots were doing, they preemptively attacked the exact areas where you were coming from. It know exactly where the JEM fighters are in the South and will not hesitate to attack them even it means hitting Juba. But the fools of the GOSS probably want that to happen so they can cry wolf again.
The rebellions (7 in total) are coming closer to Juba and you can feel the SPLM shiver. I would worry more about them then what SAF or GOS is going to do with your tiny army along the borders or in the Nuba mountains.

Dear Eto Sam,
Your fellow Arab Mohammed has written with dignity showing no hatred in Arab towards South but you have altered it but your insults which indicate that you have even less than ahalf of mind to think about what should be done between North and South that would creat amicability. When you speak of war, you will loose this time though it will be a massive death in the both side so stop talking of war of SPLA being a small army that makes you look a poor dreamer.
What is JEM doing here without legal acknowledgement? I don’t care if they suport SPLA or not they are Arab Muslims having the same direction, Stop frog jamping.

Dear Gatwich and supporter of Naath, two of you are always busy supporting north Sudan instead of giving support to your motherland south Sudan especially you Gatwich but leave the son or daughter of Mamalik Arab called supporter of Naath does what they always do best and that is supporting tribal divides in south Sudan to achieve their cause.
You are true south Sudanese unlike son or daughter of a loser Jalabi called supporter of Naath. If you continue to support the enemy of suothern people as well criminal militias like Gadet, then you are on the wrong side of history. These militias had always sided with southern enemies while our brave and heroic SPLA fought both of them for twenty one years. If our SPLA could deal with those thugs and jehadists when they were still rebells what on earth make you and the daughter or son of Mamalik Arab called supporter of Naath think those thugs illiterates Gadet an all time Arab militia do to south Sudan army? Wait for July 9th things will be different brother, the thug militia Gadet will either surrender to our army or be killed like a dog he is.

Hello fake Arabs of Sudan, this a warning from Pagan Amum in Tel Aviv with our Israelis friends, husband of the Arabs. Stop terrorizing civilians with your outdated Antinovs or else we and our Zionists friends AKA husband of Arabs will come and check you up soon after July 9th.
And this the last warning from your both husbands, Pagan Amum and Israeli minister. Take care.
