To discuss the overthrow of Sudanese leader Omar al-Bashir, Max Blumenthal and Ben Norton are joined by journalist Ahmed Kaballo and former political prisoner Sidgi Kaballo, a leader of the Sudanese Communist Party who has been imprisoned three times. We discuss the uprising, the origins of the protests, the history of Sudan, the economics and IMF debt, and the larger geopolitics of the situation, analyzing the roles of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Turkey, China, Russia, the US, and EU.
